For the curious ones, from Psychology Today:
“A larger amygdala is primarily associated with increased anxiety, heightened emotional reactivity, and stress-related disorders, often acting as a hyper-active “threat detector” Symptoms frequently include persistent fearfulness, depression, irritability, and hypervigilance, as the brain over-processes neutral stimuli as threats.”
Whoever made the original meme is an absolute moron.
Maybe. LLMs are free(ish), meanwhile a single trip to the ER can leave a person destitute. Maybe that’s not so bad (it is) if the ER visit is for something actually urgent, but somewhere between 27% and 40% of ER visits are non-urgent and most are treatable by a PCP. But… ERs have to treat you while, in the US, a primary care physician can look you right in the eyes and turn you away because you have no money.
People don’t want to admit that AI does some good because the companies that own these LLMs are as corrupt as any other and the implications of the corruption of this tech are horrifying. But for health care, including mental health, LLMs are an unexpected godsend.

If she’s nominated, it’s a fix. Classic authoritarian playbook: maintain the illusion of democracy by propping up an opponent that you aren’t likely to lose to. Then, stuff the ballot boxes anyway.
You actually blew my mind here. It never occurred to me that they might actually use ChatGPT to run the country. I was thinking unmanned drones, data combing/surveillance.

Dear smart glasses wearers,
You’re colossal pieces of shit. And dumb as a bag of socks, morons who are paying companies for the privilege of spying on strangers without their consent. You’re helping to enable a world where privacy literally doesn’t exist and every public moment of every person’s life, whether they want to participate or not, is being mined and monetized by billionaires.
You are lower than pond scum. You’re the shit under the back of the toilet bowl that has never been cleaned. You are actually stupid. Like, actually braindead. You are paying actual money to be exploited. At least Facebook and Instagram are free. Seriously, what kind of dumbass would pay to have Mark Zuckerberg sit on their face all day? Fucking idiots. 🤣
Why did homie get banned?
It’s a doomsday cult.
Seems to exist all over Lemmy. I’m new around here, migrated from Reddit just a week ago, but this kind of post would get downvoted into nothingness over there. Not for the message, obviously, but for the self-righteous indignation, the name calling, for just being one big spoiled brat temper tantrum. So far, it’s the only thing I miss.
Horseshit. Conservatives have been raising their children for a generation to believe dying for Trump’s America is a worthy cause.
Raw Story is just like any other rag. They play to their demographics. There is no massive anti-MAGA outcry on X or any of the socials.
Don’t let this bullshit lure you into a false sense of security. Conservatives are as committed as ever. The majority of them think the post-911 wars were justified, and that they were heroes for fighting in them. They also believe the Jews are the chosen people. They’re ready to send their kids to die in Iran. They’re nationalists and zionists. It’s their entire worldview. It’s in their bones.
Don’t become complacent.
Why are you pretending like Biden isn’t talking specifically about the collapse of whatever is left of American democracy into outright dictatorship? Hungary, North Korea, Russia… whatever you think about America, the crony capitalism of the last 40 - 50 years is nothing compared to Russian oligarchy. In all of American history, nothing even close has existed. And since the beginning of post-war American hegemony, these systems of democratic oppression have always existed “over there”. For the very first time, the full dictator experience is coming to America. It’s entirely, undeniably new.
I tend to agree with the former president. There is no coming back from this.
You don’t say… I was sure he was going to admit to being a pedophile and child rapist.
Just goes to show ya, you can never be sure about these things.
He’s running for a Senate seat in Texas and needs to beat a beloved lifetime Republican incumbent. Only a child wants everything all at once.
Anyone claiming Talarico is a centrist is intentionally smearing him or unaware of his performance in Texas and his platform for his Senate run.

He’s not a Democratic Socialist, but he is the closest thing to it that could come out of Texas. Jasmine Crockett is arguably farther right than he is. More importantly, most polling predicts that Talarico has the better chance against Cornyn (incumbent). However, odds are nearly the same for both candidates against Paxton.
That said, the most interesting part of this whole thing is that Republicans are boosting Crockett. She’s their pick to run against Cornyn. Do they think she can win but would be easier to control than Talarico? Do they think it’s a guarantee for Cornyn? Whatever the case, Trump thinks her nomination would be a gift to the GOP.
Don’t be that guy. Whatever is happening under Trump is something new. Predictable, maybe, but new and uniquely terrifying in modern times.
*Edit: New in American history. Please stop replying to tell me this is an age old issue that has plagued civilization since the dawn of time. When Biden implies that we (the US) can’t come back from this, he is obviously talking about the loss of whatever is left of American democracy and the descent into authoritarian dictatorship/oligarchy. Americans have never seen anything like it except as bystanders.
Anthropic has raised $30B in equity and is pledging $50B constructing data centers (all debt; they have only $2.5B in revolving credit facility).
There will be an IPO sooner rather than later.
The only question then is: will Anthropic be the first tech company ever to withstand the government? The answer is no. Everything you do with Anthropic’s services will become the government’s data trove someday, guaranteed.
In other words, they did the calculations and found that they don’t yet have the market share or the financial position that would enable them to sell out to the government. However, they’re planning to get there someday and hope the DoD is willing to work together in the future.
Do you think there are people out there who really think that Dr. Oz is a genuine expert in medicine and health & medical policy? Or would they be happy with any bootlicker who has a doctorate running the CMS?
Spez is such a colossal Zuckerberg-wannabe piece of shit. I don’t think any site has fallen farther than Reddit has. What a waste.
If it wasn’t in the beginning, it was after Folding Ideas/Dan Olson released “Line Goes Up”.
