I enjoy anything shitting on the Mango Mussolini

With tiny baby hands

Al Sharpton is assuming that Trump and his supporters ever valued the life of George Floyd or anyone like him

Oh, I know

I said as much further down

The legal burden of proof is fraught

My initial reaction was born of frustration and disgust at what had happened

There’s a general scientific consensus based on data and measurement, with the understanding that it’s slippery

It is constantly under assault from those who want AI to be conscious, because they get a headline, or they are true believers in some technocratic future, or they’re just fantasists

I agree that there’s a general consensus about consciousness, the rest slips into the messy and pointless world of philosophy

It’s still overreaching to think that it applies to AI as it currently, and foreseeably stands

There’s a world of difference between AI and what’s recognised as artificial general intelligence

AI can do specific things really well at the moment, but as with all complex systems, going from being good at one thing to many things is a leap far greater than the sum of its parts

There is still no good definition for what “consciousness” is

Tech writers are constantly overreaching because they’re afraid to miss out on being the first to say something

The constant sensationalism just means that if something really happens, people will ignore it because we’re sick of hearing people cry “wolf!”

Add to that the fact that computery types like to overextrapolate into other things because it fuels their fantasies, and it’s all bullshit and overactive imaginations

The problem I see so often with smart computer people is that they don’t understand that they don’t know shit about other things

I dunno, maybe

Hopefully.

I live in Australia,

I was unaware of your regional differences with that word!

We use it to describe all of you

Now convince a jury of stupid, ignorant yanks of that.

Edit: I live in Australia

To us, you’re all “Seppos”

Septic-Tank>Yank

Sadly, the odds of getting a conviction

They can easily get assault, but a hate crime requires proving intent and having a jury sympathetic to the victim

It’s a shitty situation

Every day I’m made ever more grateful that I’m not 'Murican

What else could they possibly classify it as?

He’s afraid of people being informed by anything other than cable “news”

I’m lucky

I have no children, and never will

My family and I aren’t close

My fiancée and I met through the erotic content that I create, and all my friends are well aware of it

My image has already been shared far and wide (without my permission), so that ship has already sailed

I’ll be dead, and nobody will be worried about my digital legacy whatsoever

I know, however, that I’m very much the exception and not the rule

The fat orange fuckstain is probably hoping that another plane will appear in time

Hate and vitriol are the only things he does faster than shitting his pants

It took longer than I expected for him to be a nasty cunt

He must have had minders holding him back

Republicans aren’t fit to govern breathe

Honesty has never mattered to conservatives,

Why would anyone expect anything different now?
