The Riker split depended on a plant on that one particular planet. Maybe it cannot be replicated.

Fully embracing that technology would have loads of chaotic outcomes...maybe they forbade it or something? Ripe for abuse...the ability to make infinite free clones or people...

The first sensible thing I've read here.

It's got to the point where if I want a rational, well-informed, and balanced discussion about anything I'll just chat with AI.

If I want an emotionally unpleasant, "us vs then" manipulative, frustratingly one-sided or limited interaction: I'll go onto social media and find someone to trigger me.

Didn't take long on this new platform.

Ironic I suppose: these people hate AI so much, but everything they type (e.g the manipulative nonsense arguments) illustrates their own inferiority to the AI systems they oppose.

For me it is, apparently, the unpleasantness of social media discussions that make them so compelling and addictive... otherwise I'd just discuss things with AI.

No.

Being a persuasive communicator and recruiting people to one's political agenda has never been a matter of pure logic and reason: going around insulting "the other side" will not work.

Not that anything would: I judge the value of X by X. X could have been made by a sandstorm: if it's beautiful it's beautiful.

A piece of music, for example, is either enjoyable or it isn't. Admittedly AI music has a way to go yet - but it's clearly already superior to a percentage of human made music.

The very concept of "hallucination" and the choice of that word in this context shows how retarded the entire debate had become.

A machine cannot hallucinate because it cannot have an experience.

The output is either pleasing or displeasing, an accurate and useful response to a request or not. To claim that all AI products are "ugly and useless" is a patently absurd position: were the same thing made by a human a decade ago it would have been deemed as "good, beautiful, useful, and valuable."

Is that something you know or something you choose to believe?

It's my first 24 hours here. If I could get paid for saying what I believe I'd gladly take the money. But honestly, I'm just a Reddit refugee - and have no idea about the ideological bent of the users of this platform (though I'm quickly learning it's as hysterical, fanatical and willing to use disingenuous argumentation and rhetoric as those on Reddit).

My real reason for joining: I'm addicted to having my faith in humanity destroyed by interacting with terrible people on the internet - but got permabanned from Reddit for speaking against Israel on r/Worldnews.

So thanks for delivering: 24 hours and I'm already being insulted and called a bot because I think AI is impressive and refuse to join the "Everything AI produces has 0% value" nonsense.

It's literally got to the point where if I want an actual rationale, balanced, non-hysterical discussion: I go to ChatGPT. If I want an emotionally unpleasant, annoyingly irrational, rhetorically disingenuous and frustrating argument that goes nowhere: I feed my social media addiction instead and talk with a human.

Opposing Israel on r/Worldnews was what got me permabanned from Reddit 🤣

Making amazing images incredibly quickly 🤷🏻‍♂️
