"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

...I'm sorry, I think I need a translation for this.
I looked up "yumeship" and just found more incomprehensible delusional niche culture bullshit

The site above is accessible language-wise. They seem to be either fucking with OOP, or mentally ill, or 11.
Edit: removed a thing, language drift is a helluva drug
"We." Always a red flag when someone admits to participating in lolcow shit; buncha chuds bullying autistic kids online.
Edit: hey, all you chuds who are getting mad about this comment, you're not fooling anyone either, it's just other chuds telling you that you've done enough. "Edgy" isn't the same as bullying people to suicide because they're weird, that isn't normal teen behaviour, it comes from internalized values that you will still hold unless you actually address what you believe and why; just not bullying people online anymore isn't the same thing as learning to be better.
The human brain doesn't fully develop until the mid twenties, and empathy is one of the last things that fully develops. So the nihilistic online edge lord culture is one you can genuinely age out of.
That’s not true at all. If you didn’t develop empathy in preschool and have fully developed sense of empathy by middle to high school, you had some serious developmental issues or were raised in a bad environment.
That doesn’t mean middle and high school kids can’t be mean. That cruelty can’t be excused by undeveloped empathy. In fact, they most certainly know how the person feels and are intentionally making them feel bad.
Both of those things are wrong. You should look up what the actual study on brain maturity concluded instead of regurgitating factoids online.
Its obvious when you guys are making excuses for yourselves and passing it off as some act of empathy or understanding. That's also just false, btw, and I never wanted to hurt vulnerable people even when I was young.
I think you underestimate how long the term has been around, and I've hidden nothing. I accept the shitty person I was. Have you confronted your deficiencies as a human being?
I know how long the term has been around bud, we haven't even had this internet shit fifty years for fuck's sake. If you accept the shitty person you "were," why did you just produce a cruel estimation of some other person online just because you found their behaviour cringe again? This is the kind of "acceptance" people adopt when they feel guilt but don't want to change. It's also so telling to write off actual malice and cruelty in such a fundamental way as "well we all do had things." No, I've never had the inclination to treat a vulnerable person badly, go figure.
And lol, lmao, yes. Which is how I can see straight through this kind of bullshit.
I want to congratulate you for having a normal upbringing, then. I'm not going to offer anything identifying, because I'm not an idiot, but I grew up surrounded by corpses and continued to develop elsewhere in a state of nihilism and rage bred by a family, myself included, in the throes of constantly triggered ptsd. You do not understand enough to judge an internet stranger by their arbitrary admissions. Your scope of understanding is limited by the offense you've taken and your frame of reference.
And It's not just "cringe." It's an extreme social trespass and transgression to, and follow me on this, tell someone to break up with their partner because of an llm's estimation of your desires. Whether satire or not, this person fits within the fringe groups. I'd otherwise call them an incel, but they seem particularly unhinged. Which pejorative do you prefer for a person who parasocially adheres to someone and decides upon their future? This is like defending pedophiles under the umbrella of lgbtq.
I'm glad you're a better person now.
Same. For my sake and everyone else's. The world needs broken people like a slug needs salt.
Foreshadowing: they have not.
Sounds to me you're now a better person than you were; be proud of that ^_^
I believe they took offense, leading them to act uncharacteristically. I firmly believe that they are a good person. Weighing someone unaccustomed to being in the middle of an argument, while they feel unsafe, certainly isn't fair to them.
And make no mistake, 9999 times out of 10000, they'd be right to take some amount of offense. Their chosen verbiage just triggered a landmine.
But thank you, it's kind of you to affirm that I'm not 200% dead puppies all the time!
Piratesoftware is a lolcow
the problem with those definitions is that most people don't even know what "shipping" is.
You're right, and I hate that I didn't even notice that.
Yeah I read that and still don't understand what they're talking about.
Way to admit to being part of some of the absolute worst parts of the internet and humanity itself.
How many people did you dox? How many comments did you leave on peoples' dox?
Do you have any fucking idea how much pointless suffering the whole "lolcow" trash had caused? Up to and including actual suicides?
Fuck you and fuck everyone associated with that kiwifarms life ruining trash.
I don't think kiwifarms even existed when I was using the term.
Yeah, my use of the term predated it by a decade. 0 doxing, for the record.
And no, I wasn't aware. I'm pretty apparently using a term antiquatedly
at least a decade. we were using it on IRC iirc
Yume might be related to the Japanese for dream? 夢 I have no idea, though.
Weirdo likes to imagine that they have a relationship with the person who originally posted the screenshot with the messages. They're asking the real person to engage in their fantasy by breaking up with another (probably) real person because weirdo's chatbot of them said they would.
F/O in this case is fictional other, a play on S/O for significant other. Yumeship is a dumb word for jerking/schlicking fantasy stuff.
Addendum: "yume" is Japanese for "dream". They dream of being in a (relation)ship with the other person.
We used to call that "self-ship", I'm pretty sure ("I ship myself with xyz") but maybe the difference is that this is not about a character but a real person? Which would make it real person shipping which I think most people agree is a dubious pastime. Did I just argue myself into saying having a crush is problematic? I need sleep.
It stops being a crush when you actually tell the crush to break up with someone because it ruins the fantasy you've created with them para-socially.
Shipping goes far further than having a crush, it's acting out the fantasy of being in a relationship with them. Or a fictionalized version of them usually. That's fine if the character is already fictional, but really creepy and invasive in regards to a real person.
Ooooh I completely didn't get that chatbot part. Makes more sense now, thanks!
Yeeesh
I'm guessing they have a character AI "girlfriend" modeled after her, and she having a real life broke his illusion
Jfc. Schools need empathy courses.
I wouldn't be sorry about that, just walk away from the noise.
That's probably how much of the next generation will have to deal with their peers AI shit
