You don’t choose to be straight, you don’t choose to be gay

I was going to add that to my argument, but i felt that it would get twisted into someone saying that gay people are pedophiles. I didn't feel like arguing that point.

I personally think that pedophilia is genetic, or a chemical brain imbalance or something. There has to be something that would cause someone to do something they know that it they get caught, their life is over.

It's like Louie CK's joke from his SNL appearance. To paraphrase "I love Mounds bars, but if you told me I would be thrown in jail and raped or killed, I wouldn't eat one ever again"

I will admit that I don't understand the the hardline stance some people take about legal/non legal dating. There is only a years difference between a 17 year old and an 18 year old. (even less depending on date of birth. Both of them have had the same life experiences as the other. But some screech that is sexual assault of a minor.

The even weirder argument is an age difference between a "legal" 18 year old (or whatever the legal age is in your country) and someone older. I've seen people online try to cancel someone just because he is 5 years older.

I don't think people realize how quietly dangerous this is for women. It robs them of their agency to make their own informed decisions. This is just as insidious as people wanting to ban abortion, just a quieter argument.

I just want to play my game... (lemmy.world)
 

Apparently the Ubisoft servers are down so I cannot play SINGLE PLAYER Breakpoint.

I don't even want to play the game online. I just enjoy running around in single player. Why they haven't dropped an offline patch yet?

Why AI is going to be a shitshow. (lemmy.world)
 

I was just watching a tiktok with a black girl going over how race is a social construct. This felt wrong to me so I decided to back check her facts.

(she was right, BTW)

Now I've been using Microsoft's Copilot which is baked into Bing right now. It's fairly robust and sure it has it's quirks but by and large it cuts out the middle man of having to find facts on your own and gives a breakdown of whatever your looking for followed by a list of sources it got it's information from.

So I asked it a simple straightforward question:

"I need a breakdown on the theory behind human race classifications"

And it started to do so. quite well in fact. it started listing historical context behind the question and was just bringing up Johann Friedrich Blumenbach, who was a German physician, naturalist, physiologist, and anthropologist. He is considered to be a main founder of zoology and anthropology as comparative, scientific disciplines. He has been called the "founder of racial classifications."

But right in the middle of the breakdown on him all the previous information disappeared and said, I'm sorry I can't provide you with this information at this time.

I pointed out that it was doing so and quite well.

It said that no it did not provide any information on said subject and we should perhaps look at another subject.

Now nothing i did could have fallen under some sort of racist context. i was looking for historical scientific information. But Bing in it's infinite wisdom felt the subject was too touchy and will not even broach the subject.

When other's, be it corporations or people start to decide which information a person can and cannot access, is a damn slippery slope we better level out before AI starts to roll out en masse.

PS. Google had no trouble giving me the information when i requested it. i just had to look up his name on my own.
