  1. It's all good! I have to remind myself often, that my open questions can appear to carry doubt as a smuggled in meaning. You were right to lean on questions not being in good faith - it is sort of a condition on the forum. And society at large. Good faith discussions should be assumed - but this is an ideal. And we all know where ideals lead LOL But considering approximately 54% of American adults (aged 16 to 74) read below a 6th-grade level, with about 21% being functionally illiterate - most people are on the stupid spectrum, and it is a correct assessment. People are either stupid, or ignorant (or both). Which can lead to the same outcomes.
  2. It sort of... amplifies the good AND the bad, in many cases.
  3. My comment was made in good faith. I don't know who I am talking to or where they are at on the path - so no need to feel insulted. Just a broad line of enquiry I thought relevant - and not necessarily directed at yourself - for there are many readers here who this applies to. My thoughts on the topic went toward applying the assessment as a judgement vs a discernment. The distinction between the two is very powerful and good to be clear on. I personally think all lines of questioning are worth it - even if to discard them. None offence was meant
  4. That is your meaning you have taken away from my statement. I'm just saying, always investigate what a belief is doing for you. Intellectually and more importantly, emotionally.
  5. @sholomar The topic is AI slop - not the good kind of AI
  6. @sholomar There's that saying: You're not ugly, just poor.
  7. Don't get me any more hyped than I already am. Full bussin
  8. Do you think maybe he's an experiencer? It would track way back to Close Encounters of the Third Kind
  9. That is your own personal judgement call.
  10. His teeth don't help the uncanny feeling. I love real teeth, so sad when people do the caps or veneers / whitening
  11. I've been really considering where the gap is between AI and humans in terms of wisdom and intellect. A big one is being able to upgrade AI to be able to sense - light, smell, touch, hearing etc. I reckon they will make a huge leap forward when we advance to that stage
  12. Even the original premise too - that also needs inspection. Less it become a limiting belief.
  13. @AerisVahnEphelia LLMs have no lived phenomenology
  14. @James123 there's a function that lets you ignore users. It's much easier that trying to moderate with words. Boundaries work on what we allow, not in controlling others.
  15. @AerisVahnEphelia I'm talking about when users reply by pasting into AI, and posting on the forum using arguments they don't understand and didn't come up with themselves.
  16. @Schizophonia welcome back ! I think she did, or took a prolonged break. Loved her expression on the forum
  17. @Breakingthewall he thinks he doesn't HAVE a viewpoint 😂😂😂
  18. No, AI ADDs a layer of abstraction over the authentic expression of the person. You are adding AI. You aren't removing anything. You are literally adding onto expression by using it. Literally.
  19. I didn't express a perspective relating to that topic, so there is nothing to judge against the moderation position. I merely called attention to your behaviour.
  20. It might be worth inspecting this perspective as a limiting view.
  21. Don't worry about it too much. James isn't going to shift frame, so he's unlikely to ever truly understand your perspective. As a result, his focus remains on correcting rather than understanding. His intention doesn't seem to be exploring anyone else's unique point of view. He appears more interested in telling his own story than hearing anyone else's.
  22. You're pretty much describing misandry - which is heavily feminism adjacent in online rhetoric and ideology. It's sad, the corruption, that is being served to young women 😢
