And now we've moved well last tweets to unquestionably accepting AI slop as gospel.

In one generation? In zero generations. The same people who 20 years ago were telling their kids "everyone online is a pedophile" are the exact same ones who insist on "leave poor Trump alone, democrats eat babies in pizza basements".

I agree with this screenshot of a tweet

It's shifting the thinking process to someone people assume are knowledgeable. We've done it since the dawn of time from depending on tribe leaders, religious leaders, kings, government, scientists, influencers now currently to supposed "AI".

It really didn't matter if they were right, wrong or making things up along the way. It's how stuff like religion from thousand years ago still persist.

It's really not out of character.

And it's the same generation that told us these things.

you don't need to believe everything you read on the Internet to build a worldview from screenshots of tweets. there is no contradiction

ADHD memes helped me realize I might be neuro-spicy and seek testing and counseling in my forties.

That doesn't make succumbing to propaganda online any better, but, you know, silver linings

It smells irony in here.

now this is what i call irony 😎

The time of "don't trust everything on the internet" was also time of "news on TV can't lie", so not much of a change. But how humanity is handling technology is definitely something to fix or else more suffering will come

Is that really any different than believing everything you hear on TV or believing everything you read in the newspaper? A lot of what we're taught in school shouldn't be believed either honestly.

We should just go back to making it require an intermediate level of technical ability to get on the internet. It does not take much of a barrier for most idiots to give up on computer shit. Then set up a secondary kiddie internet for just to access essential services and stream stuff without the social aspects.

Screenshots of text are just stupid: we should be linking or embedding content from sources or their archived snapshots.

Grok, is this tweet reliable information?

We?

Ben Steed is crying tears of seething smugness over being so very right.

I dont condone his weird views on women. But his depiction of reliance on technology going so very wrong is really hitting the nail on the head.

Stop blaming technology and start blaming humanity.
