AI is just a next word predictor. It cannot understand the development of guided weapons as it's not conscious.

Indeed. My humble opinion is that sarcasm doesn't belong on discussion boards, even with the silly /s marker. Eventually it poisons everything it touches.

I'm only in control of what I do, not what others do. Thus, I only judge myself by my own standards, not of others.

Then society should have the right to end your life as soon as you're no longer useful as you've just reduced yourself to an algorithm, what value do you serve if you're just a next word predictor ?
Reducing your self worth like that is a very stupid thing to do.

How does describing something reduce its worth?
bamboozled 41 minutes ago [-]
The reason people squash bugs with almost zero guilt is because they see the bugs as "nothing". If people voluntarily advertise themselves as "no things" or "just something" then you make the justification for similar treatment totally fine.
How do you think those who who commit genocide see their victims?

Its a grossly incomplete description. A reductive description.

We use incomplete descriptions all the time. Like I could say "I'm an early riser". Is that reductive?
kelseyfrog 6 hours ago [-]
All statements are reductive because language is injective to reality.

I wouldn’t be surprised if Iran’s strategy to shut down the Strait of Hormuz was ideated by AI.
hallgrim 17 hours ago [-]
As far as I heard they had that strategy as a possibility for decades, US experts had warned the current and prior administrations about it’s possible ramifications, warning against attacking Iran for exactly this reason.
The previous German minister of economy, Robert Habeck, had warned of such a situation a few years ago, too.

And the democrats expect us to believe Iran is not a puppet government of the United States. I mean Iran, Houthis, even Russia is using Claude… after pentagon pretended to ban Anthropic from the military…

Also, reality is not a work of fiction. Look for concrete reasons in things, not themes and allusions. Anthropic is used because they have a good product, it’s easy.

Wait I’m sorry, I’m all for suspecting US involvement in foreign countries because its probably happening, but what are you saying exactly? “The democrats” have had marginal if any power for two years. Any fuckling going on involves POTUS.
