Yeah, I see denouncing and illustrating terrorist attacks as a good thing.

Palestine isn’t a state. It never became it state. It never has been a state.

Palestinians knew who they were when they elected them.

Getting rid of misinformation is great.

Getting rid of accurately reported, gruesome images because of a government mandate flies in the face of the core principles of free speech. And it would cause real damage to the world.

Remember that it was only when the world actually saw images of the Nazi concentration camps that the world actually believed it. They’d heard about it for years, but it was largely ignored.

Sorry, but the UN’s anti-Israel bias is extremely well documented. They’ve earned my skepticism and yours.

Again, the sources are suspect. The UN has been widely, absurdly anti-Israel to an absolutely comical extent.

According to who?

You have to take these stories with a grain of salt.

Do you remember the Jenin massacre?

Do you remember all the awful things that the Israelis did? It was horrific.

… Except …

It never happened. The Palestinians lied about it.

Israel has never targeted civilians. Palestinians have always targeted civilians.

Hamas uses civilians as meat shields.

When people like you take INTENT out of the equation, your just doing Hamas’s bidding.

At last count, Hamas had something like a 75 percent approval rating in Gaza.

The support among all Palestinians is just over 50 percent.

Only 14 percent support the opposition party.

I feel sorry for these folks. They have no idea what’s about to happen.

This is just the smallest tip of the iceberg.

I’ve been working with gpt-4 since the week it came out, and I guarantee you that even if it never became any more advanced, it could already put at least 30% of the white collar workforce out of business.

The only reason it hasn’t is because companies have barely started to comprehend what it can do.

Within 5 years the entire world will have been revolutionized by this technology. Jobs will evaporate faster than anyone is talking about.

If you’re very smart, and you begin to use gpt-4 to write the tools that will replace you, then you MIGHT have 10 good years left in this economy before humans are all but obsolete.

If you’re not staying up nights, scared shitless by what’s coming, it’s because you don’t really understand what gpt-4 can do.

False narrative.

We have less than a dozen morons here. They don’t represent anyone but themselves.

Meanwhile we have entire factions of the Republican party at war with themselves from the Lincoln Project to the infighting in the House just this week.

The left has always had its share of morons.

Well-meaning morons, but morons nonetheless.

The issue is that the centrist and right wing media latch on to the narrative of these fringe weirdos and pretend that they represent the entirety of the left wing, even though there are WAY MORE lefties who find them disdainful.

So is lemmy just dead?

This post is the number 1 post when sorting by hot in the category ALL. It’s been here an hour with ZERO comments?

Every other post in my feed is similar. What is happening?

Ew.

No.

But, I do own silicon Ziploc bags which are intended for cleaning and reuse.

You don’t need another example if you understand how many people are covered in that category.

Do you have any idea how many people have at least 5 minutes of audio on YouTube? (That’s all you need for voice cloning), tens of millions? Hundreds of millions?.. And how many of them have a Facebook, insta, tic Tok, or Twitter account? Virtually all of them.

If you wrote a script to do what I outlined, it would run FOREVER, because he users would be signing up and making videos faster than this script could ever hope to keep up.

Yes. I highly recommend your set one up today.

I’m sorry, but your assessment of how difficult that would be is WAAAAAY off.

Scammers are already doing stuff like this en masse with highly customized email scams.

The way this scam would work is to start with YouTubers, where grabbing the voice data is easy. Then you find their Facebook profile… Very easy, since people use the same usernames, or they go out of their way to link their profiles.

It’s a pretty easy step to make friend requests with those people. And then a very easy leap to find their relatives real names and towns through their Facebook connections.

Now you take their connections and towns and do reverse phone number lookups.

ALL of this can be automated. Every step.

The voice cloning and gpt-powered phone calls can be automated now, too.

The only reason this isn’t happening at scale is that scammers haven’t had enough time to adapt yet.

Pointing out the problem puts it into play for public debate, and there isn’t anything Republicans can say about the issue that doesn’t make them look bad (because on this issue they are unquestionably the villains).

Getting into details about the solution, however, offers the Republicans a line of attack and a way to muddy the waters. (“They want to pack the court!”).

Nothing is gained by having Biden get into the nitty-gritty, but something is lost.

So these guys saved millions of lives, but thanks to Republican political games, they will probably be getting death threats from the MAGA crowd.
