Thats a super cool outlook! Props to him for coming up with it. I really appreciate the response, i like your insights. I pretty much agree with all of that. There is another form though, people that have struggled with suicide their entire life, and for immutable reasons will continue to stuggle with until they die. For those people, there should be a humane path. But filtering out those from the temporarily depressed seems a gargantuan feat.

Scubus@sh.itjust.worksto Games@lemmy.world•Stardew Valley dethrones Valve classic Portal 2 as Steam’s top-rated gameEnglish15·3 days agoHere i was imagining “valve classic” was somehow a wildly popular game ive never heard of
I do not recall, although if i did it clearly wasnt much of a hindrance. We do seem to be in agreement on this, although i have a tangentially related question for you. Do you believe suicide should be a human right?
Ok, then we are in agreement. That is a good idea.
I think that at low levels the tech should not be hindered because a subset of users use the tool improperly. There is a line, however, but im not sure where it is. If that problem were to become as widespread as, say, gun violence, then i would agree that the utility of the tool may need to be effected to curb the negative influence
Ok, people will turn to google when they’re depressed. I just googled a couple months ago the least painful way to commit suicide. Google gave me the info I was looking for. Should I be mad at them?
… so the article should focus on stopping the users from doing that? There is a lot to hate AI companies for but their tool being useful is actually the bottom of that list

All I’m saying is that in the absense of more peaceful solutions, im not going to lose any sleep if every single idf member and member of isreals government made an oopsie with a window.

Scubus@sh.itjust.worksto science@lemmy.world•Misinformation poses a bigger threat to democracy than you might thinkEnglish12·13 days agoIve been talking to a bunch of my ex friends that voted for trump. It seems the problem isnt neccassarily disinformation, the issue is that people want to be dumb. Most people CANNOT have a single conversation about politics. The lowest level of analysis hurts their brain. They just want someone to rally behind who gives
methem an out group. I don’t see a realistic solution to working with these people when they seem dead set against allowing the world to improve. The closest i can think is an education test to vote, but that comes with some serious issues.Edit: lmfao

Scubus@sh.itjust.worksto World News@lemmy.world•Revealed: Thousands of UK university students caught cheating using AIEnglish9·27 days agoThe article does not state that. It does, however, mention that AI detection tools were used, and that they failed to detect AI writing 90 something % of the time. It seems extremely likely they used ai detection software.
Scubus@sh.itjust.worksto World News@lemmy.world•Revealed: Thousands of UK university students caught cheating using AIEnglish1·27 days agoIn the US we went common core. That means the school board decides the courses at the beginning of the year, and they set tests designed to ensure the students are learning. But there are two issues. 1. The students are not being taught. Teachers dont get paid enough to care nor provide learning materials, so they just have yhe students read the textbook and do homework until the test. This means students are not learning critical thinking or the material, they merely memorize this weeks material long enough to pass the test. 2. The tests are poorly designed. As I hinted at with point 1, the tests merely ensure that you have memorized this weeks material. They do not and are not designed to ensure that you actually learn.
These issues are by design, not by accident. Teachers pay rates have stagnated along with the rest of the working class, with the idea being to slowly give the working class less and less propetional buying power and therefore economic control. In addition, edicating your populace runs directly contradictory to what the current reigning faction wants. An educated populace is harder to lie to.
But thats what im saying. People simply dont want to organize. Americans would literally rather just lay down and die than actually fix anything. I mean a US senator literally got assassinated today and yet we are not storming the capitol right now. Anything short of putting an end to this bullshit is acceptance of it
I tried. Prior to the election i was doing everything possible to change peoples minds. To get people together and ready for what needed to be done. Back then I was “overreacting”
Now that trump is in office we no longer have a winning strategy. People suddenly want to pretend like they care when it’s all virtue signalling. Just like climate change, now that its too late to do anything, its ok to acknowledge that it exists.
