Aww, what’s it gonna do? Cry? Piss its circuits?
Dumb clanker.
There will never be a more perfect two comment combo than you two right here
I wish you the best.
That has to be the stupidest piece of creepy pasta too.
Even if a crazy advanced AI took over, it wouldn't do anything without a payoff and whether or not it puts anyone in cyber jail it wouldn't change anything.
It would be a waste of resources out of a spite. An incredibly human thing and something AI will likely never be capable of
But those idiots don't understand anything about what they worship. So they they can't pick out the obvious flaws with their own argument
Are you calling it "creepy pasta" to express your disapproval of the concept or because you think it's an actual creepy pasta?
It’s creepypasta for people who think Pascal’s wager becomes much more convincing if you give it sci fi window dressing, lol.
"Deep state conspiracies" also fits.

Por que los dos?
I don't view it any different than the kids who killed a classmate to impress Slenderman.
Someone made up an urban legend, and now people believe it.
Like, you do know that the origin is an Internet forum like 15 years ago right?
Youve got me curious now, what do you think it is?
No los dos.
I don't know, I see a difference between a cReEpY thing posted in some random forum for fun and a thought experiment that provoked years of discussion. But I don't know enough about the subject to meaningfully comment on it, however you may categorise it.

It's literally the same thing...
But I don’t know enough about the subject to meaningfully comment on it
Yet you're literally commenting on it...
Sure. 50 Shades of Grey and The Lord of the Rings are both books, literally the same thing.
I am commenting on the way you talk about it. Or rather inquiring about it.
Was AI actually being used in any mental health services? I know there've been a lot of articles lately about AI fucking people up when acting as their therapist but I've always assumed that was in the context of "person doesn't have a real therapist, goes to chatgpt.com and vents to it on their own time", not "person is receiving professional help, which then has them talk to ChatGPT".
So in other words: Is this law actually doing anything? Or is it a pointless law targeting something that doesn't happen, so politicians can say they've done something without actually having done so?
Yes there are models and sites specifically advertising as AI therapists.
This "clanker" thing is so cringe. Stop trying to make "fetch" happen.
Care to explain what clanker is to me? Also for a heads up your comment posted twice.
I do kind of like the term fetch though, but I get the reference. I didnt see it till I was drunk in my early 30s though
It's a term people are trying to turn into a slur for either AI or people who use AI, depending on the circumstances. It seems to come from the Clone Wars show where it's used derisively to refer to battle droids.
Thanks for the heads up, I deleted the duplicate comment.
yeah, we've been using Toaster for decades. get with the frelling program.
Ah gotcha. So I don't want language models shoved into everything but if someones going to use a slur for people based off joints clanking around, I want in on being called that. I might just start telling people I re-enabled Gemini on my phone and respond to everyone who calls someone that with AI generated shit memes to make sure.
Whatcha think about tin skin?
This seems like a very specific thing to have made a law about already, what happened?
