    It is still absolutely insane to me that people have conversations with these LLMs.

    I will never understand

        I do think really light, local LLM’s are the future of NPC interaction.

        Not for main story missions, but for random encounters they could add a nice layer of immersion.

    So, it’s been decades since I was a teenager, and AI chatbots weren’t even a thing. Hell, I didn’t even have the internet as a teenager, so maybe I’m totally out of the loop, but someone riddle me this?..

    They’re age checking and gatekeeping social media, but not age checking and gatekeeping AI chatbots?

    Do I have this about right, or am I missing something here?

    If there’s one thing the internet is never wrong about it’s women, I’m sure the collective dating, sex and relationship knowledge of the hivemind that was fed into these things is ace lmao.

    Worse, they’ve grown up on a steady diet of media telling them that “if you say the wrong thing” to a girl, “she’s going to accuse you of something,”

    There’s a big problem with the premise of this argument.

    The article accepts this “steady diet of media” as fact, but implies that it only affects “guys”.

    If there is, indeed, a “steady diet of media” saying this to a guy, then that same “steady diet of media” is saying the same thing to a girl: “If a guy says something wrong, it is reasonable and/or expected for a girl to accuse him of something”. Girls are hearing the exact same message that guys are hearing.

    If that “steady diet” actually exists, then the guy’s concerns of accusations are valid, and he should be praised for ensuring he doesn’t “say the wrong thing”.

      TBH Grok would probably tell them to avoid “femoids” and work on semen retention to activate their redpill powers.

      Somehow, my son grew up without being interested in videogames or social media. He’s now a world class expert in film, but he has a hard time relating to others his age, who think quality is Anime or Marvel movies. He’s gone back to college for another degree, so he’s a few years older than the rest, and he’s astonished at how unprepared they all are for college, life, or anything else.

      Covid really blew a hole in the education of our country, and it hasn’t come back.

      I honestly don’t know what I did differently with him than any other parent. My philosophy has always been “Love what your children love, and you children will love you.” He was always into theater, movies, music, entertainment, so we leaned into that stuff. He just never showed any interest in Social Media or Videogames, and we never encouraged it, so he never got into that stuff.

      My wife is a social worker. She deals with a lot of parents who absolutely should never have been, but now have a kid and need constant help to avoid abusing them – intentionally or otherwise – physically, emotionally, sexually.

      I honestly believe The Thunderhead will be better than at least half of parents. Humanity will improve as a result. Almost no kid will be ever be told again pontblank they are a piece of shit that their parents never wanted.

        I felt like the thunderhead was pretty great but had its flaws, it was wayyyy too comfortable with destroying non-human life even if it did it in a pragmatic way.
