If an ancedote has someone questioning if they should go to college for computer science, they should definitely not be going to college for any degree.

Are you referring to The credibility of shock advocacy: Animal rights attack messages

Results indicated that PETA’s attack message against abuses at corporate pig farms was effective in eroding the credibility of the corporate food-industry raising animals for consumption. At the same time, PETA’s credibility rose overall after participants viewed the PETA attack message.

That seems to align with your argument but not with the topic. The study was focused on corporate pig farm.

The 53 participants were volunteers participating for course credit from upper division communication courses at a large public university located in an area where agribusiness interests loom large.

This is a terrible sample to base any conclusions on.

The results only give clear indication that such advocacy messages intensify already existing negative predispositions

And this indicates it is not a generally useful approach.

The study doesn’t measure how long the effect lasts; outrage is fleeting.

Sure. Anyone who is aligned with the mission will perceive this as an expert move. Similarly, Trump or Musk supporters do the same. Hence, 4D chess.

they should be able to post it without being denigrated about the effects of AI generated images

That’s generous of you to give this specific organization a pass on this but that’s your personal choice.

Your ability to justify it is part of why everyone else thinks peta is a joke. It’s so dogmatic it’s become a religion.

This has serious 4d chess vibes to it.

you can calculate your own serving sizes easily

You haven’t met the average American have you?

People confuse alchemy with transmutation.

This is historical revisionism. There was absolutely no such distinction at the height of alchemy.

Teleporters are a plot device.

You just missed their entire point while proving it.

He once golfed 18 holes in one shot!

I have never owned a windows machine.

And I doubt most people can honestly claim their primary computing device is something other than their smart phone.

Most of them are too poor to be in a tax bracket that would “pay for it”

You’re getting caught up on slope being a different word. If you think of it as slow-per-ator it still works towards the intent.

They wrote the legislation that allowed themselves to operate self driving vehicles. Every one of these vehicles is a symbol of the oligarchy at work.

The problem is the harvesting.

In previous incarnations of this process they used curated data because of hardware limitations.

Now that hardware has improved they found if they throw enough random data into it, these complex patterns emerge.

The complexity also has a lot of people believing it’s some form of emergent intelligence.

Research shows there is no emergent intelligence or they are incredibly brittle such as this one. Not to mention they end up spouting nonsense.

These things will remain toys until they get back to purposeful data inputs. But curation is expensive, harvesting is cheap.

No, stupidity is the absence of something that was never there.

Even a stupid person can experience cognitive decline.

Stupid people of all ages are allowed to vote. We’re specifically talking about diminished mental capacity.

You appear to be downvoting each of my comments as I attempt to reply to your questions. Therefore I see no need to engage further with you on then topic.

Good day.

And yet we let them vote and run the country.

We can’t even agree to revalidate their driving ability because that would be disrespectful.

They don’t get to have it both ways.

lol. Everyone knows the only way to fix this is to troll liberals on Lemmy. lol.
