You can’t both be sane and be ok with killing.

Absolutely nothing wrong with eugenics when applied properly. Like nuclear power, AI, the internet, eugenics would fix a lot that’s wrong with humanity. If I could generically engineer myself into someone with no anxiety disorder or adhd or no postural tachycardia or naturally muscular body maybe even different color eyes and a different voice, I would. My genes aren’t unique and my traits don’t need to be passed on. I’m not a chinchilla.

You say that as if it’s necessary for human kind to improve. We don’t have control over what happens to our species and we will go extinct which is absolutely fine. Not sure what is up with this whole obsession with continuing the species. Stop worrying about something that will naturally work itself out instead of complaining that the ‘wrong’ pe ople are breeding. Maybe thats just the natural way of things. I mean, greed, violence, hatred and discrimination are all ingrained parts of the human animal meant to aide in the whole survival aspect of things. It wasn’t meant to catapult earth species into space. Unless you are ok with genetic engineering and removing those traits from the gene pool you will never not have power hungry assholes ruining it for the rest of us. And that’s fine. That’s just what life on earth is like.

Where I live grocery stores were picked clean. Honestly we started buying and stocking up as well or we’d end up with nothing.

Just FYI it does affect bowels. My mom had straight diarrhea for weeks while she had covid. I may have had it and my bf we both had the hits for over a week.

Nah. I’m good. My vagina is in tact and I don’t end up bear homicidal every day.

Tell that to men that have been threatened or even had their asses kicked for doing that. A lot of men out there get violent when they think a man is hitting on them.

Ground beef and flour. If I weren’t allergic to wheat and all carbs didn’t give me diarrhea then i could make a million meals out of those.

I’m almost 40 and I’m sure sobe was around when I was in school

I shoukd always have the right to choosing a comfortable death though. Otherwise I’ll have to go walk into the woods and hope mother nature isn’t cruel that day.

We have never been able to afford the elderly because the elderly are extremely resource intensive. Getting old is extremely expensive and has been. Do not get old.

And the best way to avoid this in the future is to continue to lower the population so eventually we won’t have so many elderly people. Stop making people, they will likely get old and be unsustainable.

Stop labeling people something that has nothing to do with this. We aren’t peddling some obscure crypto. I’m no bro. It’s just so weird to me people on lemmy of all places are all fearful of AI… something I never thought I would see in my lifetime. It’s fucking amazing.

These complainers sound like people speaking for Japanese people when they scream cultural appropriation when a white woman wears a kimono her host mother in Japan gave her.

Stop speaking for us, we have absolutely no problem with AI, our art is not threatened.

This guy won’t be buying anything you create so you can pay your bills so why bother even interacting with him.

I’m no tech bro, and so far us artists are the ones actually defending AI because, holy moly, it’s just crazy to think people truly believe in Skynet and all this conspiracy theory stuff.

My dad is an artist as well and he loves AI generated images. I will be training one in my own styles myself. It will make my work so much easier.

LOL where did you get that idea???

It baffles me all of these people who never created anything even once are whining. And yet every single one of us artists understand the true effect and usefulness of AI. It evens the playing field. These people never once bought anything we made. They probably had no scruples downloading our art and games off pirating websites!

I just wonder how many of these people bitching about AI copyright are part of the pirating community.

Do you? Are you willing to pay 100 bucks for a hand crafted pendant or 25 for a similar item on amazon?

Until we don’t have to work to live then no, you can’t just make art because. What is stifling creativity is being trapped in a system that doesn’t allow you to even have health care as a basic right. I don’t make any art most of the time because I cannot live off of that. You’re welcome to buy up things I make at prices high enough to pay my bills but you won’t.
