I’m convinced consciousness isn’t the special thing we think it is.

I think the romance of authenticity is something only old people like me got to experience e.g. the early days of thefacebook. It died a few short years(?) after when the algorithms took over.

MiraLAX (or any of the generics) three times a week does this for me, and according to my doc is safe to drink for the rest of my life. Good luck soldier.

I was in the overeating column (4000+ calories a day, no sugar drinks) and going into month 3 I am fighting to hit 1500 every day except the day before shot day and shot day. YMMV of course, but it is very effective for me so far.

Even before AI, bots were inevitable. Take Reddit for example, bots farming karma in every large subreddit, indistinguishable to the average user. I think the concept of an implicitly trusting public square is mostly gone and it’s probably the smart thing to be very skeptical of what you’re reading/interacting with. Nowhere with a text input field has been safe for a long time. With recent developments in AI, audio, images, and video are out the window too.

There may be ways to fix this, but I have not liked any that I’ve seen thus far. Identity verification is probably the closest thing we’ll get.

I absolutely can not do 10 minutes. I can barely run for 2 minutes without gasping for breath. I’d wager a majority of Americans are in the same boat as me. The obesity epidemic here is real. This solution is not as universal as you may think.

> What they fail to note is that Autopilot can ONLY be on while driving on a limited access highway.

This isn’t true anymore

Same with most "higher" education. Just hoop jumping.

If you’re stalking someone there are effective alternatives with much lower exposure risk.
