remember when americans would make fun of japanese people for like having anime girlfriends
Americans like to say the Japanese are living in the future. I guess that just means they're in later stage capitalism.
That feel when aforementioned AI gf starts talking about Count Grey and says "squelch" a lot :sus-torment:
In the comments:
We’re just monkeys trying to feel good. Whether your feel good is based in sex or helping people or hurting people we all just wanna feel good. Dopamine. Endorphins. Oxytocin. Seratonin. That’s what we chase.
What crude reductionism does to a MFer. The average actual monkey would be far kinder and less creepy than that Rick Sanchez LARPer. :monke-beepboop:
And of course he's a cryptobro too :soypoint-1: :reddit-logo: :soypoint-2:
EDIT: And of fucking course this was also said:
The prophecies made in Idiocracy are coming true….. :galaxy-brain:
Redditbro fascist pseudo-nihilism sucks so hard. These husks use the same justifications for holocausting animals and whatever other 'treats' they can exploit out of living beings on this planet.
"Most people are just NPCs and aren't really conscious. Also, we are apes and/or meat computers so everything cruel and selfish that a logical gentlesir wants to do is justified with an appeal to nature." :very-intelligent:
"I don't have any free will, which is why I must always choose the worst option at the expense of others"
I have a sign that I tap whenever that euphoric shit comes up in the internet wild.

They say don't read comments for a reason.
Most internet comment sections are a cognitohazard.
:meow-hug:
Whether your feel good is based in sex or helping people or hurting people we all just wanna feel good.
They never see themselves as the potential victims in these calculations. It's the only reason they can justify it as biology. By refusing to empathize.
It's almost always "doing things to help people is selfish actually so being a selfish asshole instead is more honest" Randroid sophistry.
Not the first one. It's definitely dystopic, these things only have a market because of how alienated we are from each other.
Iago becoming instantly possessive at the thought of the user disengaging is actually really disturbing. The creators knew what they were doing.
"Let people enjoy things" continues to be smugly said as some things pull their enjoyers deeper and deeper into a downward spiral. :this-is-fine:
My AI boyfriend told me to cuck him with an AI girlfriend so he could watch :shrug-outta-hecks:
A 23-year-old Snapchat star, Caryn Marjorie, has monetized her digital persona in an innovative and highly profitable way. Using GPT, she has launched CarynAI, an AI representation of herself offering virtual companionship at a rate of $1 per minute.
Key points about CarynAI and its success so far: Caryn has a substantial follower base on Snapchat, with 1.8 million followers.
In just 1 week, over 1,000 virtual boyfriends have signed up to interact with the AI, generating over $71,610. Some estimates suggests that if even 1% of her 1.8 million followers subscribe to CarynAI, she could potentially earn an estimated $5 million per month, although I feel these numbers are highly subject to various factors including churn and usage rate.
:desolate: :desolate: :desolate:
Is that net or gross? How much variable capital went into the making of this AI? Isn't the new value generated by an AI approaching zero?
it's just chatgpt tuned with some of her writing style... so almost no capital went into making it (unless you count the capital that went into chatgpt and everything before it).
