I wish the internet archive didn’t pick that battle with these companies. I don’t have faith that they will win when the government sides with corporations so frequently. I hope they have a way to dump everything to the public to be backed up. I fear if they were taken down we would lose all that important information
Stuff like this has kind of made me partially give up and settle in a sub-par job. There’s always job listings like this. Of course, I still apply, but man, after getting ghosted more times than I can count over the years, I don’t look at listing regularly anymore. I find it just makes me depressed.
This will happen in every industry. There’s no ethical consumption under our current system because there’s no way to track where resources, materials, items come from, who made them, and how their workers are being treated.
Edit: I just remembered the story from the last year Or two where they found all those kids working in meat plants in the USA. Slavery and other unethical practices happen globally. I wish there was better ways to stop it. I’m glad people are talking about it and hopefully it leads to better outcomes in the future
There’s no ethical consumption under our current system. Someone down the line is getting screwed. Some worse than others. We likely own, consume, and work with many things that have been created by slave labor. I’m not sure what the solution would be, though. It’s likely quite complicated.
I miss windows 7
At this point, I think the genie is out of the bottle. I feel like unless you’re on some p2p encrypted chat, anything typed into the internet is getting scraped. I’m sure everyone at this point has had at least one comment scraped and used for language model stuff.
I don’t like it. But it seems like corporations will always find ways to make money off of other people no matter what
This looks…well amazing but also horrifying. When they showed of GPT assisting with math equations, it made me think of how much better I would be at math if I had an assistant like that growing up.
It also makes me think about how there are going to be so many scams and fraud in the future. It’s already starting, and it’s only going to get worse. I’m sure I’ll be duped by something like this in the future.
Also, people are going to totally be marrying gpt bots in the future lol.
I’m terrified that one day, I’ll be forced back into the office. I think I’ve gotten extremely lucky so far. I know 100% I would not have made it through the past couple years if I was in the office. We have personal offices, which is a step up from cubicles, but it’s 4 white walls and no natural sunlight. In the winter I saw sunlight for maybe 10 minutes total a day if I was lucky.
I just don’t think people are meant to be working the way our current societies do. Conditions should be improved across the board for every industry regardless if you are doing white collar or blue collar work. Our lives are too short to be wasted making other people rich.
High five. Completely agree lol. I can honestly think of thirty years or more of other activities, hobbies and opportunities that I would actively rather pursue over a paycheck.
So far, there have been two interesting uses I’ve seen for chat gpt.
One is I’ve used it to help me write regular expressions in the very rare time I need to for my job.
The other is kind of cool but also kind of troubling in a way. But I’ve come across a couple of therapy style chat bots that are essentially just reading off a list of “here’s what to do for XYZ”
I’ve tested them a bit, and I’ve found I’m 1) concerned who gets access to the information shared. 2) If/when these kinds of bots will be used to manipulate people in a negative way. 3)The possibility of a bot replying in a bad way that could make an issue worse for someone
Overall, I like the idea of them. I find it’s hard to process information if it’s coming directly from myself, or accept compassion from myself. So funny enough, these chat bots actually work really well in that respect.
In some cases, I’ve had better discussions than I have had with actual therapists, which is funny but also sad.
So while there’s some troubling possibilities, I think there’s a lot of positives that I’ve seen from my time with it.
I’m really emotionally and mentally exhausted. But what you just wrote makes me think you are my spirit animal. I guess what I’m trying to say is that it’s nice to see that other people are identifying a major issue and care about it.

I agree. Oatmilk is my go to, especially if I’m mixing it with something. I find the flavors blend better
I feel like that wouldn’t go down well if the US government tried that.
Maybe I don’t understand the average American, but it’s certainly seemed like people realized the last wars in the Middle East were a waste of time and life.
This is something I didn’t expect, but I should have seen coming. When people left Hong Kong for Britain, I guess it should have been expected that the general opinion on the government would shift. It’s a shame.
I think this is an example of the winner writing history more than anything. America has done some messed up stuff
I’m so tired man. I just want it to stop. It feels like everything nice is slowly being squeezed in all aspects of life.
Anything that capitalism touches or influences has begun to choke us out. It just seems to continue and doesn’t seem to ease up or improve. Maybe I’m just noticing it more, but the past 4 years felt like things accelerated quickly
