a lot of companies are chasing the humanoid form because they’ll be able to immediately adapt to existing infrastructure (to replace human workers).

that's the story, but this doesn't work, like, at all, with just a moment's thought.

if humanoid was a good shape we'd have humanoid robots already.

the reason is they're selling sci fi dreams of robot servants even though these dreams are lies.

UPDATE: Seraphinne Vallora have admitted the Vogue ad image was a photo from an ordinary modeling shoot with a bit of AI afterwards. They phrased it as bragging about their hard work, of course. https://www.instagram.com/p/DMm4KkfoYCj/

Trump apologetics doesn't really make the bar here. Hopefully you will find a sub that is more accepting of whatever your condition is.

I've met Vinay, he's great in person. But should not post.

 

Need to let loose a primal scream without collecting footnotes first? Have a sneer percolating in your system but not enough time/energy to make a whole post about it? Go forth and be mid: Welcome to the Stubsack, your first port of call for learning fresh Awful you’ll near-instantly regret.

Any awful.systems sub may be subsneered in this subthread, techtakes or no.

If your sneer seems higher quality than you thought, feel free to cut’n’paste it into its own post — there’s no quota for posting and the bar really isn’t that high.

The post Xitter web has spawned soo many “esoteric” right wing freaks, but there’s no appropriate sneer-space for them. I’m talking redscare-ish, reality challenged “culture critics” who write about everything but understand nothing. I’m talking about reply-guys who make the same 6 tweets about the same 3 subjects. They’re inescapable at this point, yet I don’t see them mocked (as much as they should be)

Like, there was one dude a while back who insisted that women couldn’t be surgeons because they didn’t believe in the moon or in stars? I think each and every one of these guys is uniquely fucked up and if I can’t escape them, I would love to sneer at them.
