This is good for bitcoin gaming

Crazy stuff all around, I think.

Maybe make a community or listen to good music?

It’s worth remembering that what made Reddit a good place to be is the community and not greedy CEO’s, so the spirit of the site will always live on.

This is exactly what I needed to brighten up my day.

They’ve made it clear they won’t. And since most subs are only going dark for a measly 48 hours they have no incentive to. It’s literally like that “Oh no, anyway…” meme.

And think of it this way: even if you they revert the changes (or you just decide to please /u/spez and only use the official app) do you think the platform will continue to get better or worse? He’s shown his hand it’s nothing good for the mods or the users.

Oh my gosh, someone needs to contact tech news orgs

I’d fix inconsistencies between instances. Like, I made this account in Beehaw and now I literally can’t create a community anywhere until I make a new account. It shouldn’t be like this.

I must be the only fool on the internet who actually consistently paid for Netflix because everyone in my house gets so much value out of it.

I wonder if such an activity can be automated.

Everything seems to be in order.

I mean, anything could happen. I get this.

RIP Twitter

This is a cool idea! Is there anyway to point it at a specific community? /r/nosleep was my favorite.

I think they made the right call passing the bill. Japan has no responsibility to accept asylum seekers who have been denied twice. If the only place in the world you can go to as a asylum seeker is Japan something is wrong with your notion of geography.

At least the messaging is clear by the CEO: f*ck you, reddit users

It’s amazing what companies can get away with that a real person can’t…

As long as it’s approached as a brain training assistant (or some other market-y buzzwords) and it’s being used with giant disclaimers I’m totally for using it with old, lonely people. It might not be a perfect aid but it can help in certain situations. Knowing how our society works, however, Big Company A is going to perfect the tech, make people dependent on it, and then scam them.

Considering how popular Farmville, as a game, was on Facebook I shudder to think about what a finely tuned AI, made by a for-profit company, will be capable of doing with old, lonely people.

Do you really want your mom chatting with a for-profit AI (like Google Bard) about you or your family to feel less lonely? I’d sooner let my brain rot, but to each their own.

I think it’s dangerous to try to cure loneliness with an AI, regardless of sophistication and tuning, because you end up with human who’s been essentially deceived into feeling better. Not only that, but they’re going to eventually develop strong emotional attachments to the AI itself. And with capitalism as the driving force of society here in the U.S. I can guarantee you every abusive, unethical practice will become normalized surrounding these AI’s too.

I can see it now: “If you cancel your $1,000/a year CompanionGPT we can’t be held responsible for what happens to your poor, lonely grandma…” Or it will be even more direct and say the old, lonely person: “Pay $2,500 or we will switch of ‘Emotional Support’ module on your AI. We accept PayPal.”

Saying AI’s like this will be normalized doesn’t mean it’s an ethical thing to do. Medical exploitation is already normalized in the US. Not only is this dystopian, it’s downright unconscionable, in my opinion.

When game studios the size of CD Projekt Red and Respawn Entertainment can’t figure out how to make their game work in a single OS for PC (Windows) how do you expect them to make it work on well on MacOS?

This makes cross-platform games closer to reality because Apple’s doing the heavy lifting.

I agree with @[email protected] about it having the capacity to make older adults feel less lonely. At the same time, however, I think it seems very dystopian. If someone was feeling sad or depressed we wouldn’t say “oh, just chat with this AI until you feel better”. So why is it okay to suggest this for older lonely people who are especially vulnerable?

Hell, given what ChatGPT has told people already it might do more harm than good. It’s akin to the whole of humanity saying “Yeah, we know you’re lonely but getting an actual person to talk to you is too hard. Chat with this bot.”
