    Funny story. My cousin’s parent were super christian religious. The sect where they “speak in tongues”. Anyway, they would play bible readings on tape to him at bedtime. One night, they started the tape and left the room. Some time later they heard him screaming from Hus room. Of course they came running in and found him in tears, utterly panicked. The stereo had eaten the tape or died (I don’t remember), and he thought that god had died.

    So yeah. Should be good.

        My grandparents only hid in the basement while I was napping so when I woke up and saw piles of their clothing on the floor, static on the radio, water boiling on the stove, I’d think Jesus came back, took them To heaven and left my 7 year old ass here.

        As an adult, now I think they wished they could go to heaven and leave me here

      Fuck that, hop in and help out. Many of us are reversing this shit already and the more people doing that the better it gets. That goes for everyone else reading this that has not joined up yet too.

      Want a better multiverse and life? Then work together and do. We will win against all this shit. Together. Work together locally, statewide, nationally, and internationally

        I empathise with that, I really do. Our govt (Oz) have introduced an office of AI and relatively strict restrictions on data centres.

        The cynic in me says SkyNet is already here and we’re just sitting ducks.

      It is my hope that one night I’ll take a rip of DMT, and when I come down, I’ll have leapt to a better timeline.

      Or in other words, hoping that the next leap would be the leap home.

      Al says that Ziggy says I’ve got a 0.23% chance each time. So 🤞

    It was considered unethical when Harlow did it to monkeys, but I guess it must be fine when parents do it to their own children, regardless of the ensuing panic disorders… 🤷

    His spouse reasonably complained that an audiobook wouldn’t be in his voice. But Sng wasn’t to be outdone in the zero-effort-parenting department.

    “I can train a voice model,” he countered, before addressing his readers: “Parenting hits different when you work in AI.”

    Sometimes I feel bad about myself, but at least I don’t say stuff like this.

    But this is what they do to thier kids “baby sitter. Read my child a story! It’s being annoying!”

    This is how the ultra rich deal with their kids. They dont understand that this isnt how normal people deal with kds genraly.

      One would think so, however knowing personally a few people deep in the AI rabbit hole… some folks just get oddly broken.

      Even if they haven’t shown or spoken of their AI usage, I’m starting to be able to tell when a person has been a heavy conversational user as the way they interact with people just becomes… Unpleasantly off.
