The antis really need to lock the fuck in

Let me just make this very clear from the start

If the only thing you think is wrong with ai, is ai art and the environmental impact, stfu and go home

Because whether you'd like to hear it or not, the pro ai people have been cooking you all in arguments non stop because you genuinely think that you're gonna get anywhere when your only argument is on the philosophy around what can be considered real art, something that was never agreed upon well Prior to the existence of ai

And yes, the pros are correct when they tell you that there are FAR worse contributors to the downfall of the environment that y'all have not done a thing to fight against, which is why you NEED to make strong arguments as to way AI is far less worth it then any of those things, and why stopping AI is a far more urgent matter, and you cannot do that if your only gripe with it is that it's "not real art"

Every use of AI, even generative ai, makes AI better at doing at least one of the following things

Create fake nudes of people without their consent, allowing for things like cp, sexual harrassment, cyber bullying and revenge porn

Give out false information by running all the information through a filter rather then directing you straight to the source like old google, the biggest example of this would be Elon musks grok ai, which he lobotomized a good 5 times because it was "too woke" right until it started calling itself "robot hitler" and was spreading right wing bigotry, which was around when he "reset it", but the fact is you cannot trust what these billionaire CEO's are doing with their ais

Mass surveillance, wherever you go being constantly tracked 24/7, you may say "if you're not doing anything wrong then why should you be worried", well it depends on when governments change the definition of wrong, as well as what's really wrong with laws today, it will now be completely impossible for a poor single mother to steal baby products from the filthy rich grocery chain, also in Australia it is now illegal to say "from the river to the sea", for the sake of defending Netanyahus genocide, also if you have any faith in revolutions, then you should understand why this is bad

Even stronger war tech specifically for wealthy countries only, allowing America to have even more efficiency in their crusades

Propaganda through making fake videos to convey a false narrative, scroll on twitter long enough and you're bound to find some AI video depicting black people as some savage gangsters with some absurd caption

False endorsements, making advertisements using random celebrities likeness to endorse whatever they're selling without the person's consent

The list could go on so if I missed anything please feel free to mention it

But seriously, if ALL you have to say about AI is that AI art sucks and is stealing from artists, then you need to get some other arguments quickly

But if you genuinely don't give a fuck about any of these other things, then you're deadass just some bandwagon grifter who will give up on fighting ai the moment it's fully normalised

Also, just to be clear, a lot of these things were possible before ai, the issue is that it was never possible without any effort what so ever to be accomplished with minimal flaws

And if you're a pro AI reading this, then understand that I believe that the only way that AI can work without genuinely making the world a worse and worse place, is in a society where money does not exist, because the billionaires do NOT have your best interest in mind and they are exploiting you just as much as everyone else

You are not an entrepreneur or hip inventor making complete use of modern technology, you're a training program being used for free, once ai reaches a point of being so good that it requires literally no effort at all to get exactly what you want, then all the best ais will be placed behind pay walls and exclusive to billionaire CEO's who can now produce whatever art they need on mass production without allowing any creative input from a human being who might risk telling the word any sort of truth, no longer will producers need to make artists rich and give them a platform to speak on in order to exploit their art for money, they will simply type into their laptop

What are the chances of me just being gender fluid?

I've been slightly considering transitioning and coming to terms with some intense gender dysphoric feelings of mine recently, but I'm nervous about transitioning

Because some days I'm really ok with being a man, and I can also picture myself growing up as an old happy man, however at the same time I wish I was born a girl so bad

So what if the only reason I feel so much more strongly about wanting to be a girl is because it's what I'm not? What if after I transition I'd just be flipping the coin over and have wasted my time?

So like what if I'm just genderfluid and only sometimes wish I was a girl because of that? What's the chances do you think?

My personal desires for new characters that will never happen probably

I DESPERATELY crave Skylanders in this game so here's my personal desires and to be clear I do NOT want Spyro's lizard ass

As just a basic Skylander I want slam bam, and I want him to almost sorta play similar to Squirtle

A swap force guy that lets us customise the top and bottom before going in would be nuts

The giant I'd want would either be eye brawl, or the humpback whale guy

And those are honestly the only Skylanders I desperately want

From other games, I would LOVE to see a titan from Titanfall 2 but I genuinely cannot imagine it working at all and I think it'd just look super silly scale was, and would honestly work better in like multiversus cause of iron giant, but if we got one it's either gotta be Ronin or just bt with all of his moves doing something from a different Loadout

Alternatively ig they could add a pilot instead but idk I just feel it'd be a much less interesting move set

Warframe is the one I have the most hope for because of the lotus already being a spirit in the game and also Warframe doing some colabs with other games aswell like balatro and fortnite

And I think the easiest option for a Warframe to add is for sure just adding excalibur (which would then allow for and excal prime and Umbra skin, plus obviously colour changes, maybe even Arthur)

And I mean it's really not hard to imagine what an excalibur Moveset would look like, just a swordie with probably much crazier movement, so I think making him lightweight would be the right call

Alternatively I think adding the drifter how he is in duviri would also be pretty dope, or fuck it give us another character swapping character like Pokemon trainer (I fucking LOVE Pokemon trainer) and make him able to switch to the operator with a different Moveset, like switching between a swordie and a zoner, although idk that might be annoying to play against

Also something makes me feel like a yomi hustle character would be kinda sick

Also terraria does just straight up deserve to be added

Alright and for my last one, which is completely ridiculous, gimma a JoJo's character simply because they have fighting games, gimme jotaro kujo bro just do it

Is retsu isekai worth reading if I don't know any Japanese?

As the title says

I really wanted to start reading it but then I heard that it's not fully translated and it seemed like it stopped being translated pretty abruptly

So should I bother?

Do titans literally just need to recharge in order to heal?

Because like to repair in game they just get some spare batteries, does this mean that titans have an auto healing function that lets them repair broken parts just as long as they have necessary power?

I ask this because someone just asked what titan you would have in real life, and I wondered how I would make sure I didn't damage to the point i can't cheaply repair it, but like, could I just hook that thing up to a USBC and call it a day?

Does the titan health bar just represent battery life?

I know there's probably no lore on this
