"The butcher is coming" - said a student, seeing the mathematics professor (demanding, and for that reason he "tear" the students a lot in exams). The professor calmly left his bag on the table and said "as long as there are cattle - as long as there will be butchers". As long as there are idiots who sometimes buy a smartphone for over 2000 dollars (and this is thin, glass and a few rare earth elements) and devote more and more time to virtual reality - as long as there will be similar farms that "feed" the attention of cattle... -
To all who have latched onto AI. Who have succumbed to their propaganda. Remember - AI was created in a capitalist country, a country that kills, a country that creates advanced weapons, which tests these weapons in - Iraq, Serbia, Afghanistan, Iran, a country of the world bourgeoisie, a pestilential gendarme.Comment

Looks like you've fallen prey to TDS. Of course you can say that it ain't him, but that's not the point. It's what people infer, that's the point.
The irony is that this statement of yours is merely your opinion, and is even more disrespectful than KT315's "hinduses" statement. Why? Because he provided a context.
But you will not take ownership of it because you can always deny by saying that you mentioned no name. But it would not be unreasonable for someone to assume you were referring to ...potus
Don't take me too be serious, I just wanted to post something, anything.Comment

Ah, I know how you feel! This forum is overloaded with my posts of a similar nature.Originally posted by dbanner View Post
It is a consequence of not taking the medicine on time.
Since I take my medicine on time; the forum is relieved of my free thoughts!
I didn't give a pre-context because I respect Carl and the rules of the forum (I haven't always, my fault) not to write about any other topics here... except for the topic of metal detectors, electronics and technology.
And here, to please you, I will once again break the rules of the forum and go off topic.
A man with a bad haircut is a man whom I personally wholeheartedly supported during the first elections and especially now during the second elections.
And was happy when he won.
A couple of months later... the deepest disappointment! The man not only looks hilariously funny; he also behaves like that. He always says one thing, thinks another, and does the third.
Otherwise a very difficult and burdensome situation in the world... he makes it even crazier!
What does that have to do with the forum?
In my defense I will say this; my humble opinion is that this forum has become very stagnant and is slowly dying because of the world situation as it is.
People are scared, worried, very withdrawn. Few people have the will and enthusiasm to deal with these beautiful topics that the forum deals with.
As someone who is deeply committed and loyal to this forum; I just can't keep quiet anymore... I'm seething with dissatisfaction.
I'm protesting against the fact that a handful of difficult jerks are ruining our lives, enough is enough!
dbanner... even though you didn't take your meds on time... i know you're smart enough to understand my free thoughts!
P.S.
Let's imagine for a moment two raccoons, two weasels and two rats... all bitten by the rabies virus.
And then they were all put together in a very small cage.
That's about the situation closest to what happens in the head of a man with a bad haircut.
Robert De Niro was right a few years ago.
I didn't realize it at the time and was ready to remove him from the top list of the best actors in history.
But now, after several years, I realize that I was wrong.

Under the inscription Annuit cœptis at the top of the pyramid ( 1 dollar bill ), you can see the panopticum – the all-seeing eye... .the best way to hide something is to put it in front of everyone's eyes'' - David Icke ... everyone who uses a phone, a computer... – the information falls into the bottomless jaws of the all-seeing AI. All phone calls are recorded, all surfing on the web – absolutely everything of billions of users is monitored! When I first entered Facebook, I was impressed by the question,,what do you think''- a prompting question to write something… About 20 years ago, the show,,Big Brother'' was on TV. There is a connection between the question on Facebook, Big Brother and the all-seeing eye. A few hundred years ago, a shaman from an Indian tribe in North America had a vision of barcodes on goods – he described them as traces of a bear’s paw (he had no idea ,notions about it). “The mark of the beast” - The mark of the beast is a symbol from the Bible book of Revelation, specifically in chapter 13, verses 16 and 17.,, “And he forced all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or on their foreheads, so that no one could buy or sell except one who had the mark, the name of the beast or the number of his name” (Rev. 13:16, 17). This is the emerging digital currency, virtual money. a few years left until the use of https://patentscope.wipo.int/search/en/WO2020060606. Note the numbers of this patent – issued during the “corona crisis” – in March 2020 – the peak of global psychosis! , and especially the last 6 digits, which are predicted in the Bible! and as a finale – let us remember what happened – in Spain https://www.lemonde.fr/en/energies/a...742433_98.html ... we live in times of freedom, democracy, free spirit, etc. and “freedom of information!?! this is absolute nonsense for the naives ... Everything is under control !!!

The best way to protect yourself is to ... have no secrets.
I consider myself very privileged because I have no secrets, so I have nothing to hide.
Everything I had to say about myself, I said everywhere and in every place.
Is my data being manipulated?
Oh yes.
As a result I always have my computer and phones full of various adware and spyware.
I let them roam and do whatever they want.
Life is too short to have and waste your time for paranoia.
While the little rats somewhere in the depths of their boring holes deal with me; during that time I try to live my days as best as I can.
I think this is the best advice for everyone else as well.

– that's what they think ... paranoia? Remember 2020, 2021, until February 24, 2022 - the war in Ukraine began and Dr. Putin cured the world of the coronavirus - they didn't talk about him, but about the war. Everything around us is complete absurdity and total paranoia ...

Generative AI as a "Bull**** Generator": A Brutally Honest Take
Generative AI is, at its core, a highly sophisticated bull**** artist. It doesn't "know" anything - it's a statistical parrot, remixing human language based on patterns it was trained on. Here's why the label fits:
1. It's a Confidence Man, Not a Truth-Teller
- No understanding, just mimicry: It strings words together based on probability, not meaning. The more plausible-sounding, the better - regardless of factual accuracy.
- Bull**** ≠ Lies: Unlike a liar (who knows the truth and distorts it), AI just generates convincing text. Philosopher Harry Frankfurt's definition fits perfectly: "Bull**** is speech intended to persuade without regard for truth."
2. Hallucinations Are Its Native Language
- When ChatGPT invents fake citations, misquotes people, or generates nonsense with a straight face, it's not "lying" - it's bull****ting by design. Accuracy is optional; coherence is prioritized.
3. The More Fluent, the More Dangerous
- A poorly trained model spouting gibberish is easy to dismiss. But a well-trained LLM (like GPT-4) delivers bull**** so elegantly structured that people assume it's credible.
4. Bull**** as a Feature, Not a Bug
- Corporate PR: Tech companies market AI as "intelligent" when it's really autocomplete on steroids.
- User Complicity: People want to believe it's more than a bull**** generator because it's useful (e.g., for brainstorming, drafting emails, or cheating on essays).
5. The Ultimate Postmodern Machine
- Generative AI thrives in a world where style often outweighs substance. It's the perfect tool for an era drowning in content but starved for meaning.
Why This Matters
Calling it a "bull**** generator" isn't just snark - it's a necessary critique. Recognizing its limitations forces us to:
- Question outputs instead of trusting them blindly.
- Use it ethically (e.g., not passing off AI text as human insight).
- Demand transparency from companies selling it as "intelligence."
Final Thought
Generative AI is amazing at what it does - but what it does is generate bull****. The real skill is knowing when to use it... and when to call its bluff.Comment
