Thanks for asking this question. I have enjoyed reading the answers people gave you.

Thanks, that’s very interesting, I will experiment some time. I found kbin utilized the fediverse more than lemmy as well, but it mostly died off.

What’s the piefed experience like, out of interest? I haven’t tried it yet.

Embedding that pic would be a crime.

My thoughts exactly.

It has always been this way. When you get old, 15 year olds and 19 year olds start to all look the same.

Similarly, to teenagers a 40 year old and a 60 year old look the same. Old.

Tom from Myspace never treated us like this.

A billionaire tax haven where over 50% of the labourers are non-citizens?

That person is delusional. If North America were a group of Indigenous nations it wouldn’t have been a major immigration target for European refugees.

I am here because Germany went fucking nuts and bombed my homeland.

No, you’re there because the people already there decided to let your family in.

Them being in a position to let you in js a crucial factor. And the reason their society got to control that is because of what they had done to other people beforehand.

No one is asking you to feel guilt and no one is blaming you. But facts are facts.

they treat anyone outside of their bubble as an enemy

There’s the problem.

It might be you who needs to grow up. This is a weird knee jerk reaction.

Non Americans should be able to ask a question about America without being told to “grow up”.

It’s not childish to wonder how much Americans understand about how fucked up their choice of leadership is. We’re not psychic.

Perhaps you missed the headlines when the ICC called out Facebook for actively, deliberately obstructing the ICC genocide investigation into the Rohingya genocide.

I would prefer to send all of them to dig graves for the victims of various genocides and conflicts.

Cut the balls, don’t just dust them.

Imagine explaining it to your professor. " Well, first I sent an image disguised as unsolicited catfishishing scam…"

I have already suggested it. Trolley problems etc. Ask it to tell you its reasoning. It always becomes preposterous sooner or later.

My point here is that remembering the correct answer or performing a mathematical calculation are not a measure of understanding.

What we are looking for that sets apart INTELLIGENCE is an ability to genuinely understand. LLMs don’t have that, any more than older autocorrects did.

LLMs are an autocorrect.

Let’s use a standard definition like “intelligence is the ability to acquire, understand, and use knowledge.”

It can acquire (learn) and use (access, output) data but it lacks the ability to understand it.

This is why we have AI telling people to use glue on pizza or drink bleach.

I suggest you sit down with an AI some time and put a few versions of the Trolley Problem to it. You will likely see what is missing.

I think you might know some really stupid or perhaps just uneducated people. I would expect 100% of people to know how many Rs there are in “strawberry” without looking at it.

Nevertheless, spelling is memory and memory is not intelligence.

Memory isn’t intelligence.
