I continue to have no sympathy left for whinging about how the public are rude about AI and feel threatened by it when the biggest players in the AI space have spent years very vocally and constantly *threatening the public*

The thing that will always stay with me is, how people sit next to Elon Musk and let him lie, for minutes on end, and refuse to challenge him on anything.
The next Tesla cars will have rocket engines? Cool!
I'll put people on Mars in 10 years? OK!
I'm building a underground highway? Neat!

This chain of logic is a vicious circle. The underlying issue is that even if non job critical courses were removed from all curriculums, the cost would not decrease because it isn't smart business to charge people less when they've demonstrated they're willing to pay more.
If I’m not a customer then why do I pay so much? I’m definitely a customer and as a customer I have certain expectations for the service rendered.

I said it before, will say it again -- generative AI fetishizes "ideas" while sneering at effort, execution, and education. That, despite Gen-AI being built on and out of other people's effort, execution and education.
A.I. and the Fetishization Of Ideas
In writing and in dispensing my (very dubious, probably shady) writing advice, I am often keen to note that ideas are bullshit. Most writers treat them like precious gems when really, ideas are lik…

It is a running joke of almost all creatives that we have a graveyard of concepts that we thought of, wrote down to work on later, and know we probably will never execute simply because there will not be enough time to try to realize more than maybe 10% of our 'ideas'.
Most artists are brimming with ideas. Ideas are easy.
The actual work of creation is harder.
But it's also the satisfying part. The fun part.

Vaccines and baby formula are probably the two biggest game changers for infant mortality. It isn't an accident he's attacking both. Culling the weak is a core principle of eugenics. He wants more dead babies. I know that sounds insane, but just look at what he does.

A bad economy is good for rich people if they can keep the poors from getting mad enough about it. The bust part of the boom and bust is when they consolidate power.

Plus the last American civil war would be a goddamn picnic compared to what they seem to want, which seems to be a bunch of independent militias just fighting in different neighborhoods rather than two at least semi professional armies fighting each other.

What's sad is this is history repeating. They literally thought the same in the Civil War and hundreds of people showed up to the Battle of Bull Run to have a picnic and watch the battle. Including several members of Congress.
They had to flee from cannon fire and a few politicians were captured.

I don't know that shocked is the right word, but man have non Jewish Zionists gotten real comfy real fast telling Jewish people that they're being Jewish wrong.
Hillary Clinton sassing off "young Jewish Americans who don't know their own history" in a way that is disgustingly antisemitic. "They say from the river to the sea...they don't even know which river and which sea!" Fuck off.

One thing I've said from the beginning is that if there is one area LLMs will improve, it is their ability to have their output controlled. The idea is to filter all information through a chat bot. It's far more effective to parrot Breitbart talking points than direct normies to alt right sites.
Researchers tested several ways to train the AI chatbots to persuade people. The most effective tactic turned out not to be pyschological manipulation, but simply addressing voters' concerns one-by-one by presenting a ton of factual claims.
Troublingly, that worked even when the claims were false.

There are a few reasons this statement is absurd.
Firstly - We live in a world that rewards heartless greed and that includes the education system. The halls of higher education are already packed with nepo babies who took advantage of an unfair system.
