That’s just like, your opinion dude.

Seriously though, it’s an option piece from a freelancer. Opinions are not considered a form of evidence, nor is the author an expert in any field.

Softcore gilf porn created by an AI to sell state lottery tickets wasn’t on my cards for 2024, but here we are.

Just hit him

I’m not sure why, but you seem to have posted this yesterday but it didn’t show up until an hour ago. Your instance may be having some issues.

I do get where you’re coming from with all that, but the act of going to therapy itself is an achievement a patient can benefit from, and should be considered from the start. If that truly isn’t possible for someone, voice calls from a real therapist are a reasonable next step.

Also, the original question was, “Can AI replace therapists?”. I can see some meaningful benefits coming from an AI assisting a therapist, but that’s not what I was getting at. AI alone really just feels like a bandaid on a bullet wound, when applying pressure or a tourniquet is also available.

I think there’s a good chance people will leave once Lemmy integrates with Threads. So if you time things wisely, you can probably get a good base of users to swap their coms to Sublinks.

What’s your planned policy for karma? I know users hated it, but as a reddit mod I found it super useful to determine between a misinformed user and a troll. If your plan for mod tools is as good as you’re saying, I wouldn’t mind going back to modding.

CSAM is still unfortunately an issue on Lemmy. Just yesterday I had to contact an admin of the 2nd largest instance directly to get a post removed that had been up for several hours. Worst of all, it had more upvotes than downvotes. I do applaud the admin for taking action the minute I notified them, but it should never have been able to get that far.

Also, some of the issues involving Lemmy developers really remind me of major Minecraft servers back in the day lol. There’s just an inability for the “helpers” to do much problem solving because of the lack of tools, and absolute reliance on the person at the top to take action. Even then, the person at the top doesn’t always have the skill set necessary to solve the issues that arise.

I look forward to seeing how Sublinks goes, but without a good reason for users to migrate it could be dead on arrival.

Listen, putting ‘Web Developer’ isn’t any worse than putting ‘Software Engineer’ in your tinder bio. Either way, you’ve fucked up.

Tbf, Brutus didn’t go for a killing blow. He stabbed Caesar right in the dick. I’d say he deserved what he got.

“Traditional therapy requires me to physically go to a place, to drive, eat, get dressed, deal with people,”

YES! Those are the things therapy for anxiety and depression is supposed to help you with! If the AI “Therapist” won’t help with those problems, it’s not there to actually help you.

Eating, getting dressed, and talking with real people are all good things for your mental health. Typing on a keyboard doesn’t help, otherwise we’d be the least depressed generation ever.

There are 18,000 people homeless in Oregon and 1,500,000 empty bedrooms in Oregon.

This isn’t about helping homeless people, or assisting people who struggle with housing. It’s about legislatures giving into the real estate markets need for constant expansion with the least risk and greatest profit.

That’s pure speculation on your part.

Like another person said, the “young girl” on the toilet looks to be a woman well into her 20s.

Bobi was born as one of four male puppies in an outbuilding where his caretaker’s family stored wood. His brothers were all buried alive after birth due to Costa’s father not wanting to take care of more animals. Since Bobi blended in with the wood of the shed he was born in, Costa’s father did not see him when he was collecting the puppies to bury.

That’s fuckin wild if true.

I think it really depends on what “young girl” means in this context. The title says “children”, but nowhere in the article does it say that. So I’m unsure if this is another AI-boogyman article, or something else.

Large media figures should be held to a higher standard than the average person. Drake specifically should be held to a higher standard because literal children idolize and impersonate him.

Quote from the github faq:

Why is this project suddenly back after 3 years? What happened to Intel GPU support?

In 2021 I was contacted by Intel about the development od ZLUDA. I was an Intel employee at the time. While we were building a case for ZLUDA internally, I was asked for a far-reaching discretion: not to advertise the fact that Intel was evaluating ZLUDA and definitely not to make any commits to the public ZLUDA repo. After some deliberation, Intel decided that there is no business case for running CUDA applications on Intel GPUs.Shortly thereafter I got in contact with AMD and in early 2022 I have left Intel and signed a ZLUDA development contract with AMD. Once again I was asked for a far-reaching discretion: not to advertise the fact that AMD is evaluating ZLUDA and definitely not to make any commits to the public ZLUDA repo. After two years of development and some deliberation, AMD decided that there is no business case for running CUDA applications on AMD GPUs. One of the terms of my contract with AMD was that if AMD did not find it fit for further development, I could release it. Which brings us to today.
