@trenton It could be intentional to make that comparison, maybe to shock them and wake them up.

@StarStruck How would you summarize Leo's two videos on where the left goes wrong part 1 and 2, in 3 paragraphs at least?

@Leo Gura Yes, he's one of the very few on the left, in online spheres to have a balanced take on whichever side is going too far, also thanks to his decades of debating other people. Also, one of the rare individuals that started conservative, then went moderate conservative, then very left leaning, and now is solidly a centrist. Not many people have that kind of evolution in their politics at least.

@DreamScape Use or not use A.I. programs? Use more traditional analogue drawing, or digital drawing? For clarification.

@something_else If an artist that draws uses many tools, and wants to explore A.I. drawing programs for experimentation, to just try it out for a week, am I potentially stealing a weeks' worth of 100,000s of artworks from 100,000 of artists? I think the main issue, is trying to make most businesses incentivized to reward artists over time, because the issue is that there's 10 billion or so images in for example googles database. The question becomes, can anyone business survive long term if they prioritize royalties and refunding those billion plus artists? If they can't survive even 1 year of doing that, the majority of small to large business ain't gonna be doing that. So, how do you encourage them to do that, when it's in their best interest to not reward artists at scale total? Maybe overtime, reward a selection of artists? Very deep implication, concerning creativity geniuses, is that a large portion of our art consumption, even we don't give credit to all our sources of inspiration and sources of aspiration. That's largely subconscious, and we only ever do give credit when it's due, when it largely influenced us to go that direction, so that 1 or 10 artists gets the shout out, but the billions of other artists that draw, or do music, or fight, or dance, don't, simply because they were not titillating enough to get me inspired to aspire to that level of mastery and creativity. So, this issue also is a metaphysical, epistemic and existential one especially to human beings. Can we give credit to every single billions of artists?

Also, can we stop and appreciate Steven Zapata's drawing ability? It's quite amazing what he can do with pencils.

@Scholar Okay, it's an ethical issue. Let's assume we all unanimously agree with it being unethical, the whole art community and the young generation agrees. Great, so, what are our options going forward with dealing with these corporations using A.I. drawing/music/dancing programs? One possibility is a stronger and bigger government...but most young people don't like a stronger, bigger government, right? Most of the Zoomers to millennials have a anti big brother view, like they're some degree of Libertarian. Yet, we need to actually make the government stronger and let it have more control over the internet, the open sources and enforce regulations against more predatory forms of capitalism of the big companies...but some of those big companies fund parts of the government...and again, even the businesses themselves are incentivized against slowing down and rewarding every single artist using their A.I. programs, while their competition delays that or ignores the royalties for profits, which means the government has to step in more and design policies and regulations that effect the economy, markets and business taxes...but if they tax businesses too much, that puts pressure on local to big businesses to go do business elsewhere outside it's country.... Assuming we all agree and are ready to take steps, what do those steps look like to you?

@Bobby_2021 Honestly, all you had to say is an over simplified argument and claim: all genetics determines the shape and edges of the bell curve, and the majority of your automatic and unconscious/instinctual behaviors. That it. Genetics determines the millions of subtle changes in behavior, physicality and shape and brain modulation and hard wiring. Genetics largely determines body composition and brain shape from the beginning. After that comes eugenics and how those genes are expressed generationally, and other complicated modals of psychological development and other factors. The main problem is that on average people here in the forum are not into or interested in black pill ideology, they're here to learn other resources and improve their lives in some ways, no matter how small from resources other users have shared. Or teatime before going back into real-life. So, other than trying to increase the heat of this discourse, I don't see why you keep on harping on about genetics?

@Max_V Wait, when I read that, my mind immediately thought Chinese crackers, and other crisps and doing a parade of some kind. Is the word 'cracker' an actual slur for some other context? I really didn't know that until now if that's the case.

@ValiantSalvatore A few syntaxes and semantics issues: *Institute, *visited, *ability *Incel (a) between 'of' and 'recommendation' in the third paragraph. Also, when writing paragraphs indent. Inappropriate and excessive use of laughing emoji, and in second paragraph, in line 5 you need a full stop after 'journals '.

@Phil777 @petar8p Also, much easier to date and have short term relationships with and helps screening process much more. We all live in a society that is progressing technologically, and one way or the other we will have stage yellow to turquoise societies with infrastructures that will support all men or women with their dating and relationship problems, and we all have to start somewhere, and that starting point may look like stage blue/orange methodology with holographic numbers of how often you've slept with people on your forehead, first on your online profile.

This is a very interesting video of Destiny doing something similar to Leo, in that claiming the wokeness left has gone too far change my mind type of video. I felt this was copying Steven Crowder's approach, but it is what it is. What are your thoughts after watching the video? bonus video:

@mr_engineer How are my questions and statements used to discredit you? If it's a fact, do you have proof that I'm intent in discrediting you? If I written my posts as personal remarks, can you show me what I written? My reasoning for how I worded those words, is how you've written your posts to other users and me here. If there's miscommunication, and you are not triggered or heated when you've written those posts, then I apologies in advance if that's the case. I just assumed, based on your typing style, that you were heated, and my intent in engaging with you and this topic behind my posts is to try and calm you and those down, bring the temperature back down to room level so to speak with light jests. If you were not heated in those moments, and if there are words in there that you have taken offense, please quote them in here. If my assumption about your state when you're writing is wrong, could you tell me what state you were actually in when writing, so that I can correctly communicate to you, if you still wish to interact with me in this thread?

@Blackhawk What do you mean I contradict what I say? Where has my take contradicted? Can you explain to me why the following you said is a 'smart move' for Ukraine from your point of view: becoming a sovereign country, and a buffer state, not choosing to become a buffer state, and choosing to join NATO, while either choosing to or not to be a buffer state? Is being a buffer state a choice? And why did you leave out the other possibilities of: Ukraine joining Russia instead of NATO? Ukraine joining with China? Ukraine joining and making additional treaties and alliances with other foreign countries? Like with the USA? Or some other country? Also, what is a true sovereign state to you? What if becoming a buffer state is by survival, and not by choice?

@mmKay I could be wrong, but this case shows genetics and epigenetics at play here. For example, if his parents or grandparents have been consuming large quantities of those drugs and alcohol, they very likely would have passed the genes for his ability to be highly tolerant to big doses of drugs, and the expression of those genes is probably the more important factor here. For example, and I am intuitively speculating here, that his parents could have also given him small quantities of alcohol and drugs, that allowed his systems to adapt to higher quantities as well. That and him engaging with behaviors of consuming those every day helped achieve some alignment with his ability to tolerate high levels. However, it's obviously not a great lifestyle for the average person.

Good example of healthy stage blue, looking after your own first before another from some other community.

@Scholar The tricky key question that's tough to tackle in that video, is how do those A.I. drawing software companies, if this is true that they are copywriting and stealing images from the open-source internet, how would even one company begin to compensate each artist? Roughly speaking, an A.I program that's open source has access to a billion + images on the internet. A BILLION PLUS!! And some of these companies are relatively new to having a business modal and dealing with A.I. drawing programs, where do they get the funds to compensate a billion plus artists?? What Steven Zapata fails to understand, is the magnitude of this problem, that the internet still isn't as democratized as the real-world societies that we live in. There's no central government body on the internet to add or subtract infrastructure for other users and online communities, and compared to real-world human history, the internet does not have regulations and policies at scale to deal with 100,000 and so communities, not just artists, using the program. Most cases it's decentralized and privately owned web domains, and furthermore, I think the process of notifying each of those billions of artists, along with reviewing each one's right for royalties, is gonna be extremely tedious, so tedious that no sane company is going to risk getting bogged down with trying to be equally fair and equally distribute payments to those artists that readily reply, and to those that are still pending. Also, this problem is more complicated because of the increasing number of online and other businesses using those A.I., either open sourced or privately owned and must pay first, that none of those business is incentivized to risk slowing down to bend over for billions of artists if it hurts their race to gain more profit over their company competitors. It's a similar dynamic to the vaccine companies racing against Covid 19 like Pfizer and other businesses. There are at least 2 or more possibilities: the company chooses to do the 5-year trial to fully proof the vaccine and know all its side effects or choose to cut corners and save 2 less years to mass produce and mass deliver vaccines to those countries affected by the Covid 19's ridiculous infection rate. If a company does the right thing and keeps conservative, then it can full proof a vaccine in 5 years and is ready to be mass produced, the cost: 5 more years of this virus killing 10 million and infecting 100 million more people, and 5 more years of lockdowns and inflation rates and closed down stores. Or the alternative is rushing the trials, save 2-3 years and get the vaccine mass produced and available ASAP to affected countries willing to receive, the cost: discovering potential side effects along the way, and looking like incompetent fools in the future. Damned if you and your group does, and damned if you or your group doesn't. Out of the frying pan, and into the oven. Stuck between a rock and a hard place. Fucked and skewered while getting roasted. I don't know, so many idioms. ?

@Scholar It's a decent video, posted it on @Space thread on A.I. ruining art.

@Twinstar By first starting out how a person defines sanity and insanity, and discussing around these words first: Now we can have a good discussion.

@integral What would you say is a healthy pace of development for an individual that's mostly stage orange, in a stage blue/orange society?

@integral Would you agree that this part of your post communication would upset @StarStruck 'Ur a odd guy lol,'? Also, does post count equal or correlate strongly to personal development? *'Ur a odd guy lol' should be = You are an odd guy.'.

@Yarco Don't forget Tai Lopez, his Lamborghini, thousands of books, and knowledge is power. ?

@Kensho What do you mean when you say horizontal and vertical evolution? Is it really a house of cards? For example, you are saying Andrew's life might fall apart, but not make the same claims about Tony Robbins, Russal Brand's or Bill Gate's life being a house of cards. Why? So, if I feel inside that I'm the greatest artist, singer and writer of all time in my internal or inner game, that nullifies any outside or external game? And how do you know that Andrew Tate has no peace of mind?

@Magnanimous Yes, he's doing, traditionally material success-wise, far better than me or you or anyone in this forum. ? It really screws with your mind and confidence, like what the hell am I still doing wrong here? I'm doing all the self-help techniques, mediation, reading, note taking, exercising, journalling etc., and Andrew Tate's looking like he enjoys his life. Is Andrew Tate a self-actualizing human being? A little bit, but not a self-actualized human being yet, still has a lot of personal development to do like all of us here. ?

@mr_engineer See, like this for example. Now, how am I to conclude that you're not taking this situation personal??? Like I said, Netflix, chill, touch grass, smell rose. Also, my opinion on this war, just to not get accused of derailing the thread, is that Ukraine should ideally be a sovereign country, that both the USA and NATO and Russia should treat as a buffer state between them. However, both NATO and the USA and western hemisphere and the Russian country and its eastern hemisphere countries are playing a tug of war at the moment, trying to incrementally gain advantages ever so slowly.
