Lmfao what even is this 😂

Lmfao are you seriously trying to claim I misgendered you with male pronouns, when I specifically used non-gendered pronouns to avoid jumping to a conclusion based solely on your username? Get out of here with your manufactured outrage.

Your trolling is laughably amateurish. And makes me more than a little suspicious of your motives in general, outside of just being an obvious troll.

You are literally pushing antivaxxer narratives. And besides that, you’re being a pithy, argumentative troll.

Guys, OP is a troll. They are not arguing in good faith. Check their post/comment history.

This is not a good-faith question - that is abundantly clear from your retorts to some of the serious responses people have given you here. Your goal is clearly to push vaccine misinformation.

Gtfo, antivaxxer.

Wait, fuck, now my primary is failing over and the secondaries can’t form a quorum and are caught in an election loop.

Aside from the “cops aren’t out there to save lives” points that others have mentioned… In case you were not aware:

“Rubber bullets” are lead slugs covered in semi-malleable resin/plastic/rubber. They can - and do - kill people when used improperly/carelessly. For instance, a headshot with one of those can kill, or leave the victim with a permanent severe TBI.

Also, they’re WAY bigger than 9mm pistol bullets, meaning they can’t be used in a pistol (generally you need a special weapon to fire them), and clip size is severely limited, and semi-auto action is (afaik) basically a non-starter.

Uh. Where in France did you go? If you only saw Paris: there’s a lot more to France than Paris.

Talk to me, goose

No, you just never saw the meme before. It’s an old one.

I made a joke on a zoom meeting and nobody laughed

Turns out I’m not remotely funny

Edit:

Also, if your org has agentic summaries turned on, have some fun with it: join the meeting a few minutes early; the agent should join with you. Then start screaming about how the titanic is sinking, or the mongol hordes are invading, or that the Dominion has cut off supplies at AR 558, or the borg have broken through to sector 001, or the emus have broken the line and all is lost… you get the idea. This makes the post-meeting generated summary much more entertaining.

can we just drop this and move on?

Ok genuinely whoever came up with that sticker is just… painfully, woefully naïve

It’s called a “surprise filling” 😏

• just don’t use it
• become extremely knowledgeable on how it works, so that you can have coherent and pointed arguments with people on the pitfalls that the systems have. You don’t need to use it to understand the technical foundations.
• understand the infrastructural shortfalls - that is, investment cycle/ROI impossibility given the generational cycles that have become apparent in ML infra, the power requirements and impact (both direct and second order), as well as the broader ecological impact (beyond just power, but also exacerbated by the makeup of most energy grids outside of China)
• understands the copyright and licensing implications and hypocrisy that the vast majority of LLM and generative platforms have made an implicit yet pervasive part of their training sets, and how it is currently understood to be algorithmically impossible to excise one particular element from a training set post-training (thus implicitly violating GDPR’s “right to forget”)
• check out the studies that indicate over reliance on generative platforms can meaningfully negatively affect cognitive aptitude and reasoning ability.

There’s a lot more you can dig into, and that is by no means an exhaustive list. The more you learn about the nuance of how this shit works, the more you’ll be able to poke huge fucking holes in pretty much any argument anyone makes.

It’s pretty funny that they’re all like “ooooo that explosion was so mysterious, what a mystery” and… like… it’s literally a factory for creating high explosives and putting them into devices that are designed to explode
