I believe it is not the chatbots falut. They are just the symptoms of a broken system. And while we can harp on the unethically sourced materials they trained them on, LLM at the end of the day is only a tool.

These people turned to a tool (that they do not understand) - instead of human connection. Instead of talking to real people or professional help. And That is the real tragedy - not an arbitrary technology.

We need a strong social network, where people actually care and help each other. You know all the idealistic things that capitalism and social media is “destroying”.

Blaming AI is just a smoke screen. Or a red cape to taunt the bull before it gets stabbed to death.

Edit: I removed a chatgtp generated summary because I thought it could have been useful.
Anyway just have a good day.

Ahh that makes kinda sense!
Tho I’m not interested much in porn - I am very pissed about credit card companies deciding for the users of what they can purchase or not. I believe crypto will help a lot with these overreaches in the future.

Since I am out of loop - my bias is still: why wouldn’t (furry) porn be profitable? :D

This should be cross posted to the woodworking community :)

So you are non responsive person who can’t leave the house and soils the bed. Okay.

Interestingly you haven’t answered my question. Hiw much actal contact you had with these people you don’t want to help? At leat have you seen them in real life? Because you are doing everything with your demagogue to hurt them.

It is the exact argument. You are holding up potential cure because it can be used for evil. While preaching that your way is the only way.

Let me guess you are anti abortion too.

What they bring is suffering. No one ever wishes for a non responsible child. No one wants their child to be the “special one”. No one wants all the hardship it brings. Even the proxy Munchausen prefers to have a functioning level so they don’t have to do the work. No one wants to be tested by a “greater power” (random gene selection) especially not the sick little being that Teoretically Could be cured but there are people like you who like to decide stuff for OTHERS. How much time do you spend at orphanage with special needs? How much contact do you have to sit on the high horse and try to be god? How much time and money do you spend on personally helping the kids? How many diapers did you change to get to this opinion?

Gene thereapy has a right to exist. And with everything else as humans, we will abuse it to the limit. The problem is not the cure but the mindset. And your pretentious preaching won’t bring conversation only suffering. You are not helping.

There shouldn’t be a debate. If it can be cured that’s great. You don’t need it don’t take it - but there are barely functioning people who can’t take care of themselves at all. They do need help.

Tho I honestly don’t think it can be cured.
