  1. The fuck, that escalated from some general interpersonal development advice to taking drugs lol
  2. Thanks for the share. Interesting frame to look at these subjects from. Do you think AI will have an effect on religiosity in our culture?
  3. The supplements I take - based on blood tests for deficiency (the best supplement is the one you need to address a deficiency): - Vit D, Magnesium, K2 My own choice, because I feel a direct effect in joint health, performance and cognitive benefit: - Cod liver oil (not capsules, tastes like arse but you can tell when it is rancid) + 5g Creatine I don't trust greens powders, multivitamins and most supplements. They aren't regulated. I hear supplements being pushed in any sort of media and I relegate it to 'grift'.
  4. Don't perpetuate anti-therapy rhetoric. Learn to identify it when you see it. Just like anti-vax shit - there is a huge amount of anti-therapy dialogue floating on the internet. The slow slide into 'therapizing' every fucking normal human emotion has not done the field much good, IMO. Lots of online spaces do this and it ruins our ability to seek, obtain and reside in true connection. Women can be particularly prone to perpetuating and falling into this. Most people I read speaking about therapy are coming from a place of ignorance. Repeating some shit they heard. Therapy can have huge barriers to entry and issues within the field - yes. Realise this, but don't downplay how powerful it truly is. If you have a shit time with humans - try equine therapy. Sounds loopy. Do the loopy
  5. You want to connect. Connection is what brings Good. Everything good flourishes from true, authentic connection. Feminine polarity is often naturally gifted at facilitating connection. Even something as simple as being truly connected to oneself; you act out your truth, and you build a world with people in it you want to be part of. If you aren't connected to yourself - you don't know what you want. You don't know your truth. You cannot act it out, so you build a world you don't fit into, don't like, and that does not love you. Connecting to a woman, or a man, is God reaching for goodness. Love. Creation.
  6. @Butters if you read over the points carefully you will find your synopsis is a reductive mischaracterisation
  7. @Leo Gura 😁 inc before all the white pilled AI bros pile on
  8. You didn't even address it enough to disagree.
  9. Has zero to do with what I raised.
  10. Clive Owen. In Sin City. My uturus is empty, Clive
  11. @Elliott I note a lot of "black pilled" individuals across many media platforms are totally "white pilled" regarding AI, technocratism, and transhumanism. There's a possibility it is a reaction to the current system being fucked and rigged against them (in their minds). AI and transhumanism will be their way out of the matrix. It's all the same system to me. Same players. Both are or will be their same turds in different wrapping.
  12. @LoneWonderer cheers for the share
  13. I also sift through extensive lists of synonyms, antonyms, euphemisms and dysphemisms. So, I hear a word I do not know - I look up the current definition, it's etymology, pronunciation. Then synonyms and antonyms of it. Then I formulate a sentence using the word - then I work a euphemism / dsyphemism for it (if it is possible). I probably remember words easily because this method. Usually verbally dictate into chatGPT for a pointer - then find a proper source. Lots of English literature when young was a huge formative drive for this
  14. Stainless steel all day every day - bar one well seasoned cast iron pan. I don't use anything else. If you fail to cook well on them - particularly eggs - look up The Leidenfrost effect and how to effectively utilize it.
  15. Sometimes Carl enters academic language mode too I read it once. I read it twice. I read it thrice. I am dumb fuck.
  16. In terms of AI replacing humans in a functional way - a lot of random hallucinated statistics have been put forth itt that are, as far as I am concerned, completely made up. But a good contemplation question ~ "Does AI truly understand?" We can't really ask this question without driving headlong into questions about consciousness and experience as it ties to our current understanding of "understanding" in a human way. And we cannot say that AI is NOT conscious, just like we cannot know anything else is conscious. You could argue a case that AI does understand if we manipulate what we mean by "understand" as it applies to humans. But then you are left with the problem: if we can argue AI does understand (with some alternate definition of understanding as it applies to non-biological entities) does this understanding translate to human understanding? And if not, replacing humans (and in particular intuition comes into this) will be difficult. Then you would have to deal with thresholds for human understanding in certain fields of work - and the point where AI "understanding" overlaps with humans capacity would be how much/where AI could actively replace humans (and by replace humans, a human job, I mean totally replace with no oversight by a human required). Something like data entry - easy to replace. Low understanding required. Automate-able tasks - low or no understanding needed etc. Analogous to a human "habit" in that automation is AIs equivalent to human habit. If you argue that we don't even know wtf understanding is, or that we still don't know the mechanisms, it's going to be difficult to swallow any sort of AI replacing higher level tasks that require understanding, wisdom or intuition. This is where we get to AGI, no?
  17. Witness the reverse Uno card in play 😎
  18. The uninspected idea behind this "I am the one to decide what someone deserves" is the insidious root to the arrogant, judgemental ego that needs to be removed. Stunted in growth until it is attended.
  19. I'm not so excited. I don't want the bubble to pop. Not keen to experience another 2008.
  20. @NewKidOnTheBlock I raised (in an earlier post itt) where I felt AI was a huge tool in applied use that could move the needle on metrics that would directly effect quality of life. There's a lot it is fantastic for. Process optimisation, science, medicine, machine learning, huge data analysis etc. But yeah agree they are both using AI to argue. Fucken lol. Just two AI's jabbering away in cyberspace. Dumb shit. People who actively interact (push each point, question critically, who what why when how, enquire beyond it's results) with LLMs end up as juggernauts in arguments. But passively plugging in shit and copypasta is lazy shit.
  21. This needs to be inspected as a form of social conditioning, also. Kind of ironic.
  22. @Elliott Haha - I mean, you are cooking. Let the boy cook But I think it's such a shame to the points you raise, and I find replies to you quite lazy. I personally like users sharpening their minds - but they are sort of proving what AI is for, ironically... blunting the brain into slop, haha I'll take offence for you
