You know what other site you can provide evidence to and change to be more correct?

Not Wikipedia as Wikipedia doesn't care about evidence. Those people care about reputable secondary sources and will ignore you when point out evidence that contradicts such sources.

I don't ever edit English wikipedia because my English is not nearly up to the standard, and suggestions for improvement (worthwhile IMO) are usually ignored. Grok at least won't ignore you. (I tend to post suggestions to unpopular pages with sparse edit history, which is probably the reason for them going unnoticed.)

I use to frequent irc channels and forums where no such thing as an old question existed. Someone asked an interesting question on irc and days or weeks later a response would happen. On forums the response could be more than a year "delayed". Gradually things shifted to newer new new news that couldn't possibly be new enough. Then debates happen where people sometimes link to the vastly superior olds. Wikipedia finally caught up and questions are no longer ignored. In stead they are archived long before an ignored status could be earned.

I've found that generally people reserve down votes for posts that don't add to the conversation, in general, just like we're supposed to do. Its always been down vote city if you happen to criticize political positions that benefit libertarian technologists. But lately anything critical of AI tends to get a lot of down votes. Even on older posts that you can't find on the front page anymore... It feels inorganic

This varies wildly by timezone. Usually I get upvoted during European timezones and then brace for the Americans to wake up.


There sure are a lot of green names on this post pushing that agenda. Makes you wonder if its astroturfing. And why its nessecary, is AI so fragile it can't let any criticism stand unchallenged?

Lights out manufacturing is always the boogieman that's being built or coming tomorrow. Never seems to happen though. The Wikipedia article for it only cites two such factories, and at least one of them requires humans still and isn't fully lights out.

It's a reference to this article about entirely automated software production (eventually and hypothetical): https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46739117

Chatgpt told him that they couldn't

Are you really trying to argue that A) Trump never advocated for a third term B) (simultaneously) Trump advocating for a third term is no different than any other politician's posturing.

I find it hilarious how easily Trump gets his detractors agitated. He knows how to push buttons and nearly everyone in the media, on the left, and half those on the right take him literally. I learned decades ago to ignore politicians.

Trump always says crazy shit. Its all trolling till he does it and then its " What are you upset about. He has always said that he would do that."

> He knows how to push buttons

Nobody whos word is that worthless, is suited for any position of power. This is indefensible.

> I learned decades ago to ignore politicians.

Then why do you know about obamas corruption and how bad it is?

You are just biased. Most right wingers go silent when pointed to their contradictions.


Awareness and ignoring are two different things. And I'm as far from a right winger as I can imagine. You on the other hand have shown your cards. No politician's word is worth a damn. Learn that and you'll be much happier.

Sorry, i cant take your words serious anymore.

So your whole argument is bad faith and you're proud of it? Got it. Have a good day.

It's easy to have acid 3 compliance if your acid 3 compliance test is printing 100/100 and then checking to see if 100/100 was printed

That used the be the trick FAANG used to justify H1B visas. Onerous application requirements like mailed applications to prove there's no Americans wanting the job

2D plotters are what, $100? That's basically no cost for someone wanting to spam "handwritten" letters

That's not what OP is suggesting we defend against.

One of them has bragged about how difficult it is to identify a giraffe, but that he's done it three times

And probably also been asked to draw a clock at a certain time, too.
