In the game Fallout 76, the last known traveling carnival, Nuka-World On Tour, has a robot making announcements. When deathclaws attack, it announces, "In accordance with carnival safety rules, please do not get hurt."

Never thought I'd see a real world corp less ethical than Nuka-Cola.

The techbro version of “guns don’t kill people, people kill people.”

kill yourself, Call of Duty voice chat still exists and you don’t have to mess around with prompts.

But man idk why someone would be unimpressed by a chatbot that writes an email filled with embarrassing errors or coaches you to kill yourself when a human being can at least possibly be held responsible for disseminating incorrect information and if you’re really thirsty to get told to

I imagine the novelty of being able to make really stupid memes will remain unchallenged because generating those holds about as much value as the effort people want to put into them. They’re supposed to suck. Fair enough.

Because we already have things that make pictures and write stuff and create videos. They’re called………. ARTISTS. There is nothing interesting and novel and revolutionary about making shitty, derivative text or pictures unless you are incredibly incurious and easily impressed.

So like no shit users are unimpressed that you tarted up chatbots give them wrong answers and generate what is, at best, mid and wholly derivative writing and pictures that there is just something wrong with the more you think about them.

The whole “I used to play snake on my Nokia” thing is hilarious. Because when Snake on your Nokia was a thing WE DIDN’T HAVE ANYTHING BETTER. It was NOVEL. It was fucking mind blowing that not only could you CARRY a phone IN YOUR POCKET, you could PLAY A VIDEO GAME ON IT.
