Man, I really do commend the effort you put into this. I'm so far into cynicism land that I don't think I can find my way back.

I just can't help feel like you're wasting your breath trying to reason with ozma (as is evidenced by his hilarious reply to the same comment I'm replying to)

 

In the last few years, my symptoms have improved in one area (task completion) but have severely worsened in another: short term memory. In fact, it's become so bad that I can't even remember what I just said a moment before 9 times out of 10, not just what others may have said.

How do you deal with remembering things like that?

Writing things down, especially in meetings, is really difficult for me because I end up spending more time typing and less time thinking about what people are saying.

They changed it to a black box with just a chat last time i was there, although maybe the scrolling chat would count?

Maybe you should pee on it for good measure?

I find it very amusing that you compared them to an entire clown and not some fractional amount of clown

Good luck man! I quit adult pickup like 5 years ago and miss it so much. Dont forget to keep your head up and those feet moving!

Hauling trash, debris, or brush works way better in a pickup. I want to be able to hose the shit off and not have it inside with me lol But i agree that a van is better than everything else

You're right. I have no idea how to do that, though. One could argue that the solution to that problem would also serve as the solution to the problem of people losing their jobs to automation/AI.

If it were up to me, there would be some sort of UBI, paid into by corporations that replace their employees with AI/robots/whatever, that would support people who have lost their jobs due to automation (and then maybe everyone else after ramp up). I hope that someone young like you can run for office one day and make it happen

I'm very conflicted about this. I'd reckon that the majority of us working on these AI and robotics systems do so to try to make the world a better place; so that maybe one day people won't have to slave away in warehouses all day and pee in bottles because they can't take the time to use the bathroom. Those good intentions always get corrupted by corporations and greed. So do we stop trying to push the envelope? Do we not try to make the world a better place for fear that it'll be corrupted? I really just don't know
