Ok. Thx. I am not from the US and in my 40s. This whole thing of labeling people into categories is somewhat foreign to me. I mean my generation over here did this as well to a degree (and I admit I never got it), but it appears this has become much more dominant thin (at least at the other side of the pacific).
I also tend to aggressively ignore things I deam stupid. But my children will be teenagers soo, guess I’ll have to put some time into researching these kind of things.
I must be way too old. Being a nice guy is bad? Fuck, I’ve been living under a rock. Is this about “incels” or this sigma thing?
Edit: Lol, why the downvotes? You guys aren’t nice!
I am old, please explain. :?(
Lol, how did you get the idea Putin was a leftist?
It will probably burst, but that does not man that AI will go away completly.
I miss the internet where we tricked our friends into looking at a picture of a man’s gaping asshole
Tbh, I don’t miss that. Neither do I miss spacedicks.
I think regardless of the platform it will get ugly when topics are controversial. How ugly it gets is mostly depending on the level of moderation. It doesn’t need many trolls or ill willing people to derail a discussion among hundreds of good meaning people.
We also tend to concentrate on the things we consider unfavorable. If among 100 comments 5 are sexist, these 5 will get far more attention than the other 95.
I mean, I’ve seen people uttering death threads on YouTube, because the YouTuber used butter in a recipe, not margarine. One of several hundred comments under that video, but the only one I remember…
Imo this starts to affect productivity. I spend at least 5 minutes every day to click that shit away. Adding the time this costs in my concentration, I’d say I lose easily 10-15 minutes of my daily productivity.
Then add the “Let’s see if the AI can do this. Oh, yeah, it can’t” and I lose even more time.
