Things have come along quickly and are speeding up rather than slowing down.

At least people aren’t parroting that tired old, ‘This exact thing must already exist in the training data’ argument which has been fallacious from the start but is wearing excessively thin since new models use almost exclusively synthetic training data to begin with.

GET OUT OF MY HEAD!!!

It is a reductive view, but at least I have a point.

Bad things happening to people is a social problem which should be addressed. You making it personal is a political problem, and the Internet is the enabling technology. The Internet didn’t make you or I into assholes by itself.

Of course.

The US is filled with chavinists who can’t tell the difference between a social issue, a political issue, and an emerging technology.
