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.

It might be worth inspecting this perspective as a limiting view.

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.

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 😢

Brah no - I like you popping in and out Just own it - I do. User: 'You are such an aggressive mod' 'You make so many mistakes' Me: 'Yeah, I can be aggressive. I was aggressive there. Direct' 'Yep, I make shitloads of mistakes, so what? My bad. The best apology is a change in behavior' People go back and forth on decisions all the time. The most mature people understand and don't care. Those who fixate on the errors or inconsistency of others are either inexperienced, insecure, or more interested in scoring points than understanding people.

Let the hype train roolllllllll At great risk of overhyping - but anticipation is half the fun!

Do we expect poo?

I've tried to point to this in similar topics before - I think there is a LOT of misandry cloaked in the virtue of feminism in the 4th wave movement. It's not true feminism.

To me this argument centres around 4th wave feminism. You apply some fixes to cracked glass, patch them up. Gradually you come up with "policy" to mend all the cracks so everything is good again. But after a while, once we get to the stage of all cracks mended and we are polishing the surface - there's only so far you can go before you grind away the thickness of the glass, only to have it collapse and crack again until it's own weight. Generating a whole explosion of new issues - cracks. First waves of feminism - cheers, did good. Online feminism and 4th wave? No.

Exactly this - with this website as context. The whole idea is users come and exchange their genuine thoughts and insights. If I wanted to chat to a fucking chatbot I would do that, not log on there for some verbal jousting. And it's dead easy to spot users who suppliment or copy paste with AI. Copying slabs of text is easy to spot, but there are a whole host of users who chuck other's posts into AI, let it formulate arguments and use the AI reply as a basis to loosely re-write a reply post. The replies are a mixture of the users tone and a stuccato sputtering of shotgun points with all personal creative writing traits gutted out. It's wre-written JUST enough to pass AI detection, but not enough to pass the bullshit detector humans have. One of the biggest tells is contextual guardrails programmed into the AI being transmitted through its tactful navigation with words. You get this fucked up text with the users natural cadence minced in with the typical AI argument architecture. And when you push the user, they either barely recall what was posted (no retention unlike when it is typically 100% self genered) or continue to plug into AI for a response and give more arguments they don't have the ability to understand. Anyway rant over lol. Goes against the spirit of the forum.

Do you think this will suppliment human / human relationships, or act as a deterrent? It could go either way. I suspect there will be onflow effects of people coping with loneliness with AI. It will depend on the user themselves and their temparement. I often wonder if those who look to develop a relationship or connection with AI are skewing their own capacity for relationship down. Real human relationships involve things AI fundamentally lacks; genuine mutual vulnerability, independent desires and boundaries, unpredictability and the possibility of rejection, negotiating between competing needs. Even shared consequences in the real world. All these are pretty uncomfortable, but they are features not bugs. These elements are what I think make human relationships transformative. AI can exist to simulate some of the friction, but it ultimately exists to respond to the user. The risk could be that human / human relationships feel like a burden in comparison to ones with AI. But this effect isn't just isolated to AI either - you could argue similarly about texting replacing face to face interaction. People still from connections despite this. So it might not have any lasting effect on real relationships (using AI as a cope for loneliness). At a guess I'd say AI will just amplify existing tendancies. Most modern technology and advancement seems to simply be amplifying what already exists in humans and the social domain, rather than directly be the cause.

@zurew boss, I'm on it. We going deep 🧩🔍

@aurum oh it's Aurora - pure feminine expression! Thanks for the share

@Yimpa you might like this one! Boards of Canada are very strange - ambient electronic math-rock, it is often classed as. But it is it's own strange genre! Nice to see you poke your head up on the forums again! Much hugs

The vocal chopping and sampling is crazy good on this song - new Board of Canada album. Not sure if anyone likes em here

Oh boy, never thought about it like this. Hypnotized by the illusion - and it's no wonder it is so easily for people to fall into this: just like all of us hypnotised by the illusory self. The user eventually finds out how the PC works, how the AI works. Through enquiry and philosophy. Unraveling the illusion and revealing it for what is it. A mirror for self enquiry, philosophy and spirituality. Can't blame them for falling for the illusion, when it's the same shit we fell for since we mis/understood ourselves as seperate 🫠

Seconding this - are professionals available to speak to? We know not everyone is privileged enough to have access to help. You are looking for a permanent solution to a temporary state. No states last forever - please know this ❤️

Immigration yeah?

When it comes to Trump and anything UFO / UAP or disclosure related; I'm afraid I view it as a distraction from some other matter they don't want us paying attention to. I just think any 'truthtelling' he professes is disingenuous.

@Oppositionless nonlocal awareness

@Carl-Richard We aren't the owners of our awareness. We claim our own experience - but do we have right to? Do we assume our awareness is localised? These questions fall & fly as a vortex of autumn leaves, tantalizing colour... an army of leafy origami cranes terrorizing me and pecking my thoughts...

Also the topic is AI SLOP. Not the good use of AI, or it's benefits. It's literally targetting the filler generated content that makes one dry retch

This is probably needed - not all incels hate women or labour under detrimental ideology.

I get massive incels vibes when reading that subreddit. It's a female mirror of the male incel dialogue... Victims, blame. No responsibility. Cannot admit fault.
