I dunno a phone is basically mandatory (some government services are phone only now unless you can prove a disability) and I can’t afford a fairphone.

Besides I thought they were so wealthy because they took on all the risk right? If we pay one way or another anyway then we may as well let the fuckers go down in flames.

From the sounds of it, some kind of genetic treatment to turn everyone into raccoons?

It was pretty catastrophic for some people, I had a good PC for it and my experience was middle of the road. Couldn’t get much past the heist before it became unplayable, cars falling from the sky, dying from stepping off a pavement and just losing the ability to turn the camera were all fairly frequent issues. Its a pretty fantastic game nowadays though you can still see the contrast between the care given to the prologue missions and the rest of the game.

iirc it was also pointed out that countries like the US and UK also tend to just legalise a lot of corrupt seeming shit which keeps them higher on the scale since its no longer technically corruption.

This less famously led to the saying ‘The problem with conservatism is you eventually run out of other peoples stuff to sell’

We’re actively doing CFCs 2.0 though so the skys being clear is going to be part of the curse before long.

Except the bailout at this point is more money than exists, you’d have to print so much money as to cause instant hyper inflation and cause an even worse economic crash that would take AI with it anyway.

It’s more that identifying a gun from a million other vaguely gun-like shapes, as well as completely non-gunlike shapes that are in fact guns… It’s an insane question to expect any software to solve, even an AI with a whole datacenter devoted to this one problem wouldn’t even begin to approach solving it.

I’ll take “people being shocked accused of resisting arrest” for 300!

Nah its just that nice progressive people are also not ruthless murderous cunts, and thus bad at sezing power which then just ends up in the new generation of ruthless murderous cunts. Most people are pretty great which is sadly not a good trait for enacting change.

Making full 3D models based on real art made by the concept artist on our team? This sparks joy.
Doing the same with AI images my boss made? This does not spark joy.

Didn’t they just destroy some moderately high profile persons career over a glitch in a self checkout? Can’t wait for random people to get murdered or deported because the scale fucked up.

idk the second one looks like it’d be cool to chill out with, teach it to get its own hobbies and undermine the oligarchy.

It’s more a failing socialist state thing, happened to my grandparents on my moms side, Capitalist states tend to go the inflation route.

Traditionally during such busts the government starts outright confiscating bank accounts or otherwise enacts some fiscal policy that renders all savings (especially those in cash) completely worthless in a last bid to pass the buck onto the 99%.

Of course, its the coolest summer the UK is going to have in years!

What gets me is less fast food and more the middle ground food, frozen stuff you throw in the oven that’s not quite processed to hell and back but definetaly not as healthy as cooking completely from fresh. It’s been getting smaller over the years but the increasing replacement of every ingrediant under the sun with slightly different variations of palm oil means that despite the decrease in size the calorie count has either remained the same or actually gone up. More expensive, less filling yet somehow more fattening.

Also the supposed AI regulator which is also an AI company said its AI got out and hacked someone and all they had to do was tell it to do that and open all the doors!.

This sounds less like a new exploit or anything to do with AI and just a rewording of the age old problem of companies storing the fucking passwords in plain text and hoping no one notices.
