    You seem to have forgotten that the navy gets fucking lockheed martin to make their specialized $38,000 controllers, not some generic $20 logitech bullshit off of amazon. See your own source for reference.

    No. Ai cannot “think” any of its own original “thoughts”, it’s usually trained on LOTS AND LOTS of human generated text / data and uses highly complex algorithms to generate it’s response to whatever human input is given as a prompt.

    If it can’t generate it’s own original thoughts, it can’t conspire on its own.

    If i had to guess what the conspiracy theories are about, it’d be related to more recent ai models being trained/created with ai generated text/data. The mere existence of the “rokos basilisk” thought experiment is probably a common starting point / “core” of a lot of whatever zany ai conspiracy theories are floating about. They’ve been floating around for a long time before chatGPT got popular, but chatGPT and other ais all becoming more popular could only ever further increase the amount of ai related conspiracy theories.

    Conspiracy theories and other similar distrusts of new technologies is actually pretty common throughout history, so this is basically just a continuation of that historical trend.




  • This fucking infuriates me whenever i dont have an adblocker available. Since my connection speed is sub par, buffering is frequent unless it’s at a low quality. So to watch a video without buffering, i gotta set the video to low quality (240-480p) only for A FUCKING 1080P UNSKIPPABLE AD TO JUST CUT IN AND PLAY PERFECTLY FOR 15 SECONDS before casually dropping me back down to 360p, only after buffering once more when the ad ends before the fucking video finally resumes
