stop trying to force a reality that fits your narrative
lol how many tokens did you burn today
Its been an hour, the chatbot hasn't given them the perfect retort yet.
believe it or not i have the ability to still use my mind even when there are tools at my disposal! And I was at the local veggie market talking to people during that hour, so sadly again your narrative is wrong 😞 your response, however, pretty low effort... might need to throw a captcha at you
You won't trick me into solving basic logic problems that you and your bot cannot!
Perfect retort to name-calling? FM69's comment is not exactly a rhetorical masterpiece.
I find this comment a kind of masterpiece, because there was both no actual name calling, and you refuse to type FartMaster's actual name.
let's see, i woke up and did jiu jitsu. I went to the local vegetable market with my dog, bought some breakfast and got some coffee and practiced my Spanish with the vendor. I spoke with a nice lady about art residencies and her desire to live an alternative lifestyle even though shes 75. I had a conversation about iterative prisoner's dilemma game theory. Then I came home and now I'm replying to your low dimensional attempt at an insult, while spending some tokens to fix a form validation bug across a web app 💙
Ew, a web sloper even.
how sad that's what you decided to highlight...
How sad that you engage in sloppery.
this transports me back to high school level communication, thanks for the nostalgia 😄 🙏
Oh so you’re used to getting dunked on. Good to know.
oof, i really hope this sample is not representative of the general type of people on this forum. go outside and find some nature to sit in
The general type being the type that pushes back against your bullshit? Yeah I bet you really don’t like that, huh?
I want to give a better response to this because I think it's important, assuming you decide to trust any of the words an internet stranger might say...
I don't mean this personally, but with respect to the topic at hand, I really just think you're oblivious to one important thing, which is that we probably share more alignment than you imagine. There is the part of me that just wants to troll on the internet and "dunk" on people, but I also feel like I'm growing out of that in the interest of hoping there's a way to use technology to collaborate with each other instead of cause more divergence.
The point that I'm trying to make (and acknowledging that you're probably not reading my other comments) is that your tactics seem to be one where you're pushing against something that's bigger than you and wasting more energy than what you're gaining, likely at the benefit of the very thing you're raging against. Of course, this is not a black and white universe, hopefully you are gaining something, but only you know if you're operating at a gain/deficit.
Nonetheless, I feel strongly that all of this anger and hatred toward AI could have a more eloquent approach - a "tai chi" sense of going with the current and then guiding it into something utilizing its momentum for more positive outcomes.
sure, let's go with that one 😄👌
