In a game I was recently playing, the chat lobby had someone that claimed to be a "BT," or "Behavioral Tech." He said that he loved his job because he saw working with autistic kids like "programming robots" then clarified "prompting AI."

I was disgusted enough that I said it'd be great if someone took a screenshot and sent it to their boss. The "BT" then said "lol my boss could (sic) care less, he hates the (I don't want to repeat the slur here so I won't) anyway." bootlicker scared-fash

I don't know what else to say but I feel horrible for the kids that are being seen as treat printers or robots to be programmed. desolate

    This is why I still support gulags. Fucking scum like this need to be sent to forced labor so society can at least gain something from keeping them around. I don't care if they're lying, they're telegraphing their inhumanity. A person who's willing to voice a belief like this is absolutely the person who would be "just doing my job" herding people into a gas chamber.

      It also tracks because my-hero also said that raising his own children (which is also to some extent a lie because he isn't present except to bully and abuse them) was like programming LLMs. The dehumanization of their perspective says it all.
