If we're talking only about LLMs, then probably the biggest issues caused are threats to support line jobs, the enshittification of said help lines, blatant misinformation spread via those chat bots, and a variety of niche problems.

If we're spreading out to mean AI mor generally, we could talk about how facial recognition has now gotten good enough that it's being used to identify and catalogue pretty much anyone that passes a FR-equipped security system. Israel has actually been picking civilian targets via AI. We could also talk about "self driving" cars and the compeletely avoidable deaths they've caused. We could talk about how most convolution network AIs that identify graphic imagery and other horrific visuals use massive sweat shops to sort said graphic images for pennies. We could also talk about how mimicry AI has now been used to create both endless revenge porn of unwilling victims, and also faked the voice of others to try to scam them or make them not vote. There's plenty of damage AI as a whole has done, even if LLMs are the most minimal of all of them.

Before Helldivers? Lethal company.

Calvin's parents were pretty awesome

There's literally a section titled 'why use UTC - not TAI?'.

Home ec was completely gutted by the time I got to middle school. Really wasn't very useful for teaching "life skills". Also who thought that should be a middle school class? Budgeting should be a topic for when you actually have some kind of income, and I sure as hell didn't have one in middle school.

Reasons.

I've just said 'fuck it' and switched all my clocks to UTC. I don't even care anymore.

US Soldiers are given many vaccines to prepare them for various diseases abroad or weaponized. Historically, refusing could result in sever penalties. I also think it's been normally questioned whether some vaccines given were experimental or rushed, but could find no explicit proof that's happened before.

Military personnel sue for use in experimental agent testing.

The damage to their design certainly could be reversed though.

Well, the reason people argue it's a racist argument is that Paul Ehrlich's book, 'The Population Bomb', was explicitly racist and advocated forced population control on less developed nations, and his talking points are consistently the most used throughout the conversation. For a full breakdown, I'd recommend listening to the 'If Books Could Kill' episode covering it.

What most arguments boil down to is either vague gesturing that the world capacity is nearing what is sustainable by the earth - a claim that is still very unproven and widely refuted - or claims about populations ballooning exponentially - These claims have historically been most leveled at African and Asian countries, most notably China and India.

The solution to this problem is also explicitly problematic most of the time, since the only solution to too many people is less people. Very rarely is this solution suggested in western countries, since the claims are only leveled at nonwestern nations with issues of poverty. These solutions are almost always to rob these nations' people of their reproductive autonomy.

At the end of the day, I think that the actual solution has nothing to do with population, and everything to do with developed nations hoarding their wealth. If we actually made pushes to bring impoverished nations up into a healthy state, we already know that as QOL goes up for individuals, the number of children they have declines (the key reason is still debated). Just that would potentially be enough to cease global population climb.

We could also be greatly cutting emissions from developing countries by actually helping them develop emission-free methods of power and production.

There is also still much improvement to be made on how we farm land, how we harvest the crops, how we consume those crops, and food waste reduction, so I also don't by the argument that we can't make enough food.

Breaker simply go brrrrr. I think I've been sliding more towards the spray and pray, though, since it eats light units and I'm already carrying an autocannon most games.
