  • If you seriously think the doctor’s notes about the patient’s symptoms don’t include the doctor’s diagnostic instincts then I can’t help you.

    The symptom questions ARE the diagnostic work. Your doctor doesn’t ask you every possible question. You show up and you say “my stomach hurts”. The Doctor asks questions to rule things out until there is only one likely diagnosis then they stop and prescribe you a solution if available. They don’t just ask a random set of questions. If you give the AI the notes JUST BEFORE the diagnosis and treatment it’s completely trivial to diagnose because the diagnostic work is already complete.

    God you AI people literally don’t even understand what skill, craft, trade, and art are and you think you can emulate them with a text predictor.








  • I think that free speech laws are what stopped us from being proactive against these intolerant fascist views.

    They turn tolerance from a social contract into a “paradox” where we have to tolerate the intolerant until they take over.

    If we didn’t have such strict free speech laws, we could have deplatformed and jailed these people back when they were at the “protest with confederate and Nazi flags” stage and not had to deal with the neo-fascist government stage.

    To put it another way punching Nazis should be legal. A Nazi is a direct existential threat to Jewish people and other minorities. Parading with Nazi paraphernalia in public is violence towards others and punching Nazis is valid self defense. American free speech and self defense laws were written to exclude “inducement” of violence, but that’s been whittled away by the supreme Court, including a ruling that walking around with Nazi flags in a Jewish neighborhood wasn’t bad enough to permit the residents to retaliate in any way because of “free speech”.




  • Recognising the “AI voice” isn’t just the voice. It’s also the clearly “written by AI” circuitous script that keeps talking without saying anything and non-stop clickbait “but wait until you find out what the answer is” crap.

    The other type of AI voice is people just stealing Reddit stories and putting them to AI. Also lame. I want my stories narrated with human emotion. The point of stories isn’t to transfer knowledge, it’s an art form, I don’t need shitty robot emotions thank you very much.

    So no, the use case for AI voice is very narrow. Some of my favorite YouTubers use text narration. Maybe they don’t like their voice, or speak a different language, I don’t know, I’ve literally never heard them. It doesn’t stop them in the least from showing me amazing things. They don’t need to resort to polluting their video with the lowest garbage idea humans have created so far.

    I’d like to see a video that is improved by the use of any AI.

    That’s an uneducated take. The amount of goods and services required by a population as a whole isn’t affected by boycotts. What one company loses others will replace since they have a profit motive to do so. This requires them to hire additional labour which can easily come from what labour boycotted companies lay off.

    That’s assuming a boycott has such a large impact as to require a workforce adjustment which is basically a fantasy scenario in most cases.

    Stop convincing people into more apathy than is already plaguing us.
