I even spell out okay.

Which is funny, because it originated as an initialism for "Oll Korrekt".

I loved it but now I've mostly replaced it with AIMP.

Many worthy things are difficult.

Steven Spielberg specifically said that he would continue Kubrick vision for the movie. And the Pinocchio discussion Brian Aldiss had was with Kubrick, not with Spielberg.

So be careful not to cut yourself with that edge. You don't seem to be handling it well.

The Kubricking extends beyond The Shining. A. I. is a horrible travesty of the original short story. The author begged him not to do that idiotic retelling of Pinocchio, but Kubrick didn't listen.

This isn't some secret but literally how LLMs work. lol

Yeah, but John Q. Public reads AI and thinks HAL 9000 and Skynet, and no additional will convince them otherwise.

We anthropomorphize machines all the time, it's fine.

It's fucking not, amd I'm not changing my mind about it.

It's a really bad term because it's usually associated with a mind, and LLMs are nothing of the sort.

I think obvious that she would have sided with Maddox and disagreed with the ruling. I don't think her capable of overcoming her prejudices against artificial life forms.

This in particular is from Jack Chick, who also belonged to a group convinced that the KJV is the result of a new revelation.

These comics are known as Chick Tracts.

Specially when it's hijacked to run other things instead (cough cough snaps).

Humans eventually found a way to detect them and create a reliable, repeatable, predictable way to detect them and show that detection in a way we can perceive.

That's what makes the "you can't see wind either" idiocy even more infuriating.

I use that sound for notifications to this dy.

Alls I can say is you’re listening to the wrong kind of music is you think all current music is vapid.

And all I can say is that your reading comprehension is lacking if you attribute me saying that all music is valid. I said "mostly".

It’s honestly quite arrogant to think great artists stopped at our generation my guy.

And I had said so, I would agree. I, however, didn't.

In any case, if music is your main focus, you could have used more prominence in the question, because your formulation seemed to indicate that there were other things you wanted to "keep up with" too. If I had understood that music was your primary focus, I would have abstained from participating. Which I will start doing right now.

Do you not believe that music, particularly the lyrics, is a snapshot in time of what the artists ideas and beliefs are?

It once was. Now music is mostly the result of an industry churning sellable platitudes and blandness.

As I believe music is the most emotive form of expression.

When you have sensible artists who talk about things beyond their own petty and minimal experience, perhaps. This is less and less frequent.

In any case, for me music is a very personal pleasure, I don't compare notes frequently regarding what one "needs to like to be up to date". I like what I like, and it's not very transferrable. I rejoice when I find matches, but I don't want to "learn what I must like" to be "modern" because that "gives me the pulse of the zeitgeist".

Because they want to keep in touch with and still feel like a part of their community?

By keeping up with music? Come on!

There is huge divide between generations from the elders and it’s usually due to ignorance or superiority and it achieves nothing.

Preferred music doesn't do much about it. Your focus in it was the main thing that confused me.

If you had mentioned having discussions about ideas I would understood better.

I honestly think your view is weird. Why wouldn’t you want to understand your fellow humans more.

Again, you mentioned music, which for "understanding my fellow humans" is fundamentally irrelevant to me. Discussions about philosophy, ethics, or politics are much more relevant.

Or maybe you just want to understand why they like the music they like and nothing beyond that, which is valid, but painting it as "understanding fellow humans" is a little too grandiose.

I see it more as the desire to "keep up to date" to avoid losing face. That's the weird thing for me.

So I’m wondering what I can do to keep in the loop with my younger brothers and sisters?

The question is completely weird to me. Why do you care? Why do you think that is important?

I'm childfree and think that too many idiots procreate.

Also, fuck "normal". "Go forth and multiply" is a religious mandate, which is equally revolting.
