  • I drive a 2023 VW id4. It’s the best worst car I’ve ever owned.

    The good parts: good mileage. No charging issues. Don’t have to buy gas which is something people understate dramatically when talking about EVs. Very comfortable luxury ride quality.

    The bad parts: the software in the infotainment system is horrific. I would say that I have a 10% downtime on average as I struggle through crippling lag and random black screens and resets. VW has announced a recall for this issue with no repair. I’ve had the car for over a year.

    The connector is functional but bulky and I would prefer they standardize the Tesla connector which in my opinion is significantly better.








  • I don’t like either candidate. I don’t believe either one is better than the other so I have no stake either way.

    Also the electoral college I don’t trust my representative will vote the way I want.

    Also this country has been bought and paid for a long time ago. Most political affiliations are garnered by lobbyists employed by massive bureaucratic corporations.

    Just look at the supreme Court.

    You want change? Revolution is the only way. The tree of liberty should be fertilized by the blood of Patriots and tyrants from time to time.



  • An llm will never be able to do this. Unfortunately the word AI has been hijacked by companies and marketeers. Ai now means just about anything really.

    They’re actually coming up with new words to describe what AI used to mean such as AGI, which stands for artificial general intelligence.

    To elaborate on the premise of this post, The boost that we’re going to get from an actual artificial intelligence one that is perhaps sentient will be so much that the tasks that were once performed Will become so mundane and menial that it will not make any difference who performs those tasks or if they’re even being paid to do so.

    In the same sense that the printing press removed the necessity for scribes, at least for the majority. Or the firearm displaced the bow and arrow as the dominant weapon.

    Eventually, what general artificial intelligence will give us is a world free of our Faith-Based monetary system currently dominating the world.

    In essence, we shouldn’t need money after general artificial intelligence is implemented.





  • Appliance repairman.

    Best part: Appliance repair is one of the most in-demand Fields right now and there’s never enough technicians. Because of this and because of how much experience I have, I basically get run-of-the-mill. I can get away with pretty much anything as long as I complete the work in a timely manner.

    Worst part: dispatchers that don’t understand scheduling logistics and you end up riding around zigzagging through town. Around half of my 8-hour work day is just driving.



  • The fact that you put former in quotations pretty much tells me everything I need to know.

    People work in the government. They work in high-end positions. They even become directors, senators and congressmen and then they leave those positions and then they get other jobs. That doesn’t mean that they are still somehow spying on that company for the government.

    The government doesn’t need to implant people into private companies that is completely unnecessary.

    You need to get off this sub and go back r/conspiracy with your unsubstantiated anecdotal conspiratorial nonsense.


  • And what exactly do you think this situation is going to do exactly? This dude is going to dead drop microfilm under a park bench for the NSA to pick up?

    Pick literally any other company that’s working on AI right now (which is pretty much all of them) and have them hire this guy. Google, Apple, Microsoft… I bet you wouldn’t be as “worried”.

    Furthermore, if you think that the US government and its various agencies, branches and affiliations haven’t already been either using or exploiting AI for nefarious reasons. You’re really naive.
