With that context, 4 months and $800 doesn’t feel like enough

Yet another “AI bad” post that I can’t replicate. Not that I’m defending Google, they’ve been shit ever since they removed “do no evil” from their strategy, but this is silly. It takes two seconds to verify the top auto generated result when you search something, you literally just have to scroll to the second and third results. If you just take the autogenerated answer (I’m feeling lucky?) without doing any verifying then someone failed you when it comes to doing online research. And for what it’s worth, within hours of this issue being discovered, it was corrected by the same system that made the erroneous claim in the first place.

While pregnant, children’s television host Sherri Finkbine took thalidomide that her husband had purchased over-the-counter in Europe.[43] When she learned that thalidomide was causing fetal deformities she wanted to abort her pregnancy, but the laws of Arizona allowed abortion only if the mother’s life was in danger. Finkbine traveled to Sweden to have the abortion. Thalidomide was found to have deformed the fetus.[41]

Oh how we’re going backwards.

The White House said those granted clemency received disproportionately longer sentences than they would have under current laws and policies.

In a statement, Mr. Biden said those receiving clemency have shown “they are deserving of forgiveness and the chance at building a brighter future for themselves beyond prison walls.”

All told, Mr. Biden pardoned 11 individuals and commuted the sentences of five others, saying the move reflects his commitment to “addressing racial disparities and improving public safety.”

I’m getting so tired of the pessimists who are against AI. Granted, I can reflect and see my own similar attitude towards Trump: no matter what, I would never vote for him considering his history and who he is as a person. But treating the next generation of technology feels different than that to me; AI is the future, it’s the next revolution. Sure, there are several real issues to criticize and question (copyright, compensation, hallucination come to mind) but instead shit here on Lemmy just gets downvoted to hell with no explanation. I know this comment will get downvoted, but I just wish we could have a discussion about the future without shutting down every practical comment wanting to talk about it.

Thank you. Lemmy is a very unique kind of echo chamber, and I often seem to say things that aren’t exactly the “right” opinion.
