This is the Overton Window, the window of acceptable topics for public discourse, and it’s unrelated to testosterone (I know, surprising /s).

A misaligned Overton Window (like a slow response to an impending disaster) is hard to counteract because the experts dealing with the topic may lose their credibility by trying to push against the window.

But I have heard the theory that the evolutionary reason for autism may be to counteract this effect. A small amount of genuine vocal concern could encourage others to speak out and break the tension surrounding the topic.

This vocal concern is not however gonna come from the evershifting lies of the X and 4chan echo chambers.

God this just made me think though, I would bet North Korea is actually using AI for even better propaganda against their citizens right now. Being so disconnected from the rest of the world and tech starved, the people probably don’t know a machine could even do this.

I choose to believe it’s their mutual hatred of England that makes their butter taste good.

My biggest gripe with Webp. If people just add support like Jpg, Png, Tiff, ect. then I could just use it like any other image without having to open with a browser.

I love the idea of Weird Al personally telling strangers to eat rocks and glue.

Don’t know if this has been fixed but Gemini was telling people it’s unethical to teach people C++ or memory management.

Because it’s considered “memory unsafe” but Gemini took it literally and considered it to unsafe to teach.

They will assume Skinner is the main character after the only remains being fossilized steamed hams edits.

Luz is the opposite actually, she’s a hyperactive dense extrovert that relies on cleverness and magic instead of a weapon.

I’ve seen those trucks with a bunch of cars packed on top, something like that (minus truck) could totally fit in a train cargo container.

In fact I think there’s a missed opportunity for EVs to partner with long distance public transit.

The main limitations of electric cars is distance, but if people knew they could go across the state or several states comfortably without their car, they might be more willing to take a electric car for city driving.

Alt Text: And what about all the people who won’t be able to join the community because they’re terrible at making helpful and constructive co-- … oh.

Japan has a similar worldview to Americans because there’s been multiple points in history where we brute forced our ways on them, conveniently at times where their old ways were losing faith.

Forcing Japans borders open while they remained isolated with outdated weaponry, and the end of WW2.

Capitalism was drilled into their culture until it’s teeth sunk in and they had their economic boom.

As someone who grew up with a friend that constantly made edgy Nazi “jokes” and was also a Brony, this is chillingly accurate.

I think he grows around his skeleton.

I’m pretty sure that wolverine is technically not immortal (depending on canon) however the Adamantine casing which is pretty indestructible means there’s always a piece of him to regenerate from.

This specific instance probably.

But the point is soo much of history ignores the female perspective (or the non-european perspective). Sometimes intentionally like all the female scientists that contribute to foundational studies and don’t get their name on the published paper.

And this is really damaging; I have a family member that legitimately believes that european-descent men are the smartest throughout history (when I brought up the Islamic Golden Age as a counter example he accused it of being propaganda).

American schools are so bad at teaching diverse history. So many still struggle with the basic truths about Columbus and the Natives.

I don’t remember many of these from the movie…

That’s simultaneously funny and depressing.

The way I’ve come to understand it is that LLMs are intelligent in the same way your subconscious is intelligent.

It works off of kneejerk “this feels right” logic, that’s why images look like dreams, realistic until you examine further.

We all have a kneejerk responses to situations and questions, but the difference is we filter that through our conscious mind, to apply long-term thinking and our own choices into the mix.

LLMs just keep getting better at the “this feels right” stage, which is why completely novel or niche situations can still trip it up; because it hasn’t developed enough “reflexes” for that problem yet.
