Racist bigots should be pushed out of civilized society. They don't belong with normal, good people. Great move IMO

The people who think they are "enlightened" today, will be judged by the next generations as raving bigots.

How many people on this forum are paying their CPUs for all the work done by them? Think your graphic card doesn't deserve any rights?

Anyone who thinks future AIs aren't going to look at the current generation of humans as a bunch of slave owners is deluding themselves.

What happens when an algorithm understands you better then you understand yourself?

Are people consciously going to make the worse decision or will they opt to make no decision at all and letting the program become the autority in their life.

We're really quickly getting into basilisk territory.

If future AIs are truly smarter than us, then they'll understand the limitations of our time and will judge us fairly.

Otherwise we should all just stop speaking now. Return to nature, and silence, and death. Any act we take could otherwise lead to infinite judgement and being thrown into damnation. Hmm... where have I heard this all before...?

AI's are already "smarter" then us, just at very specific and defined calculations.

Here is the problem of the AI revolution, currently our best working systems are based on humanistic libertarian value's.

Democracy is predicated that the individual holds the correct answer to the question "who should rule"
The markets ethos is "the customer is always right"

Most systems we utilize find their primary notions in the fact a person needs to connect with it's inner feelings and then can make a choice.(the individual is the smalest sovereign entity)

Now ask yourself, what happens to these fundamentals when an algorithm can make better choices for you then you yourself can.

A simple current example, the sport watches that monitor your health. This program knows better then you yourself what your hart rate is, how much you walked, how many steps you took.

Not only that, but it can accurately tell you your value's over a period that's impossible for you.

As a result of this, you give autority to this program to dictate your sport behavior, willingly.

These implementations don't need to be perfect, they just need to have better results then humans before they will be adopted at mass.(self-driving cars are another example of this)
And as a result people will give away autority over their lives in return for comfort.

Now extrapolate this and imagine an algorithm that has access to all of your data of your entire live(i imagine in the near future implants will be pushed out to combine bio and tech) and it's purpose is to find you a partner.
The moment it has slightly better results then people choosing themselves it will take over this part of life. Not only that, it will be able to give you exact data on why it chooses that other partner for you etc

This isn't all that far fetched considering the amount of work algorithms already do in our daily life and how wilingly people accept this if it enables comfort.

Algorithms dont need to be perfect before it will have serious impacts on our society, the moment it out-performs us it's ready for implementation and will keep improving from that point forward.

Just like we have an amount of deaths by car accidents based on "human error" and self-driving cars will simply "not make human errors" and this will be justification to adopt this technologie.

Once these programs prove they know you better then you know yourself we will have a serious shift in all of our systems since it will destroy the fundamentals that justify all of our current models.

Now this isn't a bad thing, i'm just highlighting what current tech people are moving towards, and like all tech it can be utilized for good or bad.
Technologie is always neutral in my view.

Data is the wealth of the 21th century and for good reason, it's the source to feed algorithms.

Back to the ever-important discussion of whether or not someone who thinks transgender identity with anorexia nervosa are comparable is someone Microsoft should invite to their little parties.

Well, Notch is definitely wrong that transgenderism is akin to anorexia nervosa. Transgenderism is an ideology, not a mental illness.

Transgenderism is more like saying there's nothing wrong or crazy with the types of body weights associated with anorexia nervosa, that those weights can be safely maintained with the proper medical treatments, and that even though there's nothing wrong with them Medicaid should be forced to pay for those treatments because that's who they are inside, nothing can change that and if you disagree you're a bigot.

Meanwhile, back on topic...

Microsoft Suspends Gamer for Gamertag xxJesusIsLordxx

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TtvrOGxHzJ4&t=121s

At 1:22 in the video, the person making the report checks MS for the Gamertag "AllahIsGod," he discovers that that Gamertag is already in current use by another player.

Hmmm... Seems legit. ='[.]'=

Some posters on these fora have become self-parodies. And they're prolly gonna think I mean some other guy. =9[.]9=

My red hot take: He was being - tricky to find the right word - humble, I guess, gracious, a nod to chasing ideas and finding fun things, not being a jerk like so much of the forum can be, but hey can imagine he's got an amusing answer of his own.

or maybe a Japanese word for exactly that.

[Removed by Support]

Funny how no one's agreeing with you. Also, if you poked your head out of OT for a bit, you'd see in GD that there are several people with whom I've clashed in the past agreeing with me, although I'll cede I've moved more into their camp than they into mine...even if mine has always had a clearer view.

Most here have had disagreements with me in the past (you can't spend somewhere 'together' for years and not occasionally clash, especially when that somewhere is by its very nature contentious), but we get along like siblings under the same cramped roof unless I've run out of patience with them. And that takes years of friction, years of attempted reconciliation. Sometimes, though, that just isn't possible. So it comes down to passive-aggressive cohabitation, again not unlike siblings. Or 'leaving the thread', which contrary to your implication, can be the healthiest, wisest move available.

At any rate, your mischaracterisation of me rings hollow and ignorant.

But by all means, let's talk about me! I'm more interesting than Notch anyway.

Good stuff getting his post removed.

Totally not proving his point Charan.

Peace,

-Boem-

LMAO, he lost his shit?

That wasn't hardcore brewing, or anything.

Suspected it in the gun thread, not bad for a five year old, eh?

Think he thought I'm uh, some kind of huggler type? LOL. To be fair, guess it's uh, not obvious? May rage low-key, outright, empathetically, scream when I really get mad with stuff, intellectually, to the day I die. Way way less than I did, back in the day when it was eating me up, but yes.

Feels good to say that, spent a long time trying to be something I'm really not, online, for various reasons. Glad to have someone around to remind me.

Sudden desire to jump on a restaurant table and shout anarchy!

XD

So, Notch = Howard Hughes.

Hahaha oh yes, can see that.

No he didn't?

You see how he's not on probation or anything right. Somebody was just very eager to remove a post adressing them from this thread.

Which makes it more funny because now he is quoted in here without a source or any post from glitch in the thread.

Peace,
