This is a really great way to phrase it. I am very curious to see if this difference in phrasing would really be received differently than the more blunt approach, which certainly doesn't seem to work for most people. Hopefully, we will all have AIs soon that can spoon feed anyone who can't connect the dots on their own.

It blows my mind that people can be reminded of the mass slaughter that is happening daily and think that it must somehow be excusing the one-off brutal slaughter of an individual. I always just assume that people hate to be reminded of the implication of their "sustainable" wild caught tuna or whatever.

Yeah, I absolutely agree. About a month ago, I would have said that Suno was clearly leading in AI music generation, but since then, Udio has definitely taken the lead. I can't imagine where things will be by the end of the year, let alone the end of the decade. This is why it's so crazy to me when people look at generative AI and act like it's no big deal and just a passing fad or whatever. They have no idea that there is a tsunami crashing down on us all and they always seem to be the ones that bill themselves as the weather experts who have it all figured out. Nobody knows the implications of this, but it definelty isn't an inconsequential tech.

"A solution in search for a problem" is a phrase used way to much, and almost always in the wrong way. Even in the article it says that it has been solving problems for over a year, it just complains that it isn't solving the biggest problems possible yet. It is remarkable how hard it is for people to extrapolate based on the trajectory. The author of this paper would have been talking about how pointless computers are if they were alive in the early 90s, and how they are just "a solution in search for a problem".

If only they all got simply cut along the superior vena cava. I know it would be great if they all had wonderful happy deaths, but unfortunately they simply don't. For example, anyone who eats factory farm eggs has the fact that countless baby chicks are thrown into blenders while still alive on their conscience. It is great when people show what they think happens on those farms because it gives opportunity for people to point what actually is happening. Hopefully, more interactions like this will help to end the hypocrisy of it all.

Look at all the downvotes I'm getting, people absolutely leach onto anything that makes them feel the bad people are the ones who point out how awful these farms are.

Anybody who gets so triggered and defensive when someone points out how disgusting factory farms are doesn't have a diet that they are proud of. Whether your cognitive dissonance allows you to acknowledge that or not is a different story.

It is amazing to watch someone's mind melt like this just because the truth of their food source is pointed out to them. This is a full-blown insane comment.

Yeah, it would be great to catch that one psycho, but it would be way better to catch the psychos that do this all day every day. I think that's the point they were trying to make.

Wow! These are awesome. Where can I buy the seeds?

Why in the world is this being downvoted? An absurd number of dolphins are murdered as an accidental byproduct of commercial net fishing every single day. What the hell goes through the mind of a fool that downnvotes this comment?

Hundreds of Palestinians have been killed by Israeli forces since the start of the war in Gaza last October

I feel like I haven't heard a number this low since the end of October. I've been hearing >30,000 lately. Am I mistaken or something? I thought Reuters is supposed to generally do a pretty good job. What's the deal?
