Websites Using AI to 'Undress' Women Receive Unprecedented Traction, Study Finds
  • if i wanna see a dick i'll look it up because google exists... but tell that to the people in this article using AI to picture random people naked.

  • TIL if you live in Pennsylvania and make minimum wage you'd have to work 105 hours a week to afford a "modest" one bedroom rental.
  • damn, and that's just the rent, not even factoring in food and clothing. wow.

  • Trans people are more likely to come from poorer backgrounds, study finds
  • Damn, I see what you're saying now. I'm almost 30 and I'd say I'm jaded lol but being on the autism spectrum/general brainweirdness means I don't interpret the world the way most people do and need some help understanding what normal people see. What I would think is common sense or logical or even easy to understand is just not most people's experience, and vice versa-- what others think are obvious (in social situations especially) don't even occur to me until someone points it out. I find things out the hard way most of the time. Thanks for clearing things up.

  • Trans people are more likely to come from poorer backgrounds, study finds
  • I'd been thinking the title meant trans people are more likely to be poor. And because I'd recently seen a meme about right-wingers blaming LGBTQ people for things, thought this was a good article some of those right-wingers might need to see. Like, look, you can't blame trans people for your problems because they're also likely to be poor. But I might be assuming a lot about how things might be interpreted here, because I did not expect all this, lol.

  • Trans people are more likely to come from poorer backgrounds, study finds
  • i wouldn't say it's entirely unhelpful at this broad of an analysis, because it is important to point out that this is a thing for people who might find it surprising. but i do see what you mean by "the title implies causation when all the study is is a correlation."
