The problems with tweets like that is that they always want to put the genie back in the bottle which isn't all that realistic unless the whole AI economy bubble pops.

What would be more realistic is to demand policies where tech companies have to provide a certain amount of the energy through renewables or nuclear power. Same thing with the water, demand policies that push the companies towards closed loop systems etc.

Stopped reading after seeing "AI poisons black communities"

That's exactly where I stopped. High five!

you both started reading that?

Yes, Let's Cyber should read the DOSSIER about PoliEra but I can't seem to find it.

I mean, is the matter of when, not if.


But that doesn’t mean the genie is back to the bottle… but a lot of people really… really… hate GenAI. 

I feel the tech sector really screwed up in evangelizing this stuff and the data center stuff seem to be eliminating the goodwill of normies (whenever they do or do not more damage that other industries, people felt they screwed faster than the others).

Trouble is, people like that have purity-ratcheted themselves to a point where calls for regulation to protect and benefit the public are seen as "Trojan AI Bros" because they're not totally committed to the abolition of AI and the personal destruction of anyone who uses it (excepting the poster's own personal use cases of course, which are always morally OK)

What do you think the future of gen AI is? Do you think it's going away completely? What does the next 5 years look like in terms of gen AI?

Keep it in the containment thread.

What are you talking about? Are you a mod?

Nope, I'm a regular user here. You're an active user in the AI containment thread and nobody wants an open-ended discussion about the five-year future of Gen AI outside of it. Regular users keep other regular users in check every day on Era.

            backseat moderation



Meanwhile, an actual mod:

I think people go way too far with these attacks online, honestly. Fuck AI but I've seen some stuff on social media that rubs me the wrong way.

Until AI is so toxic it's seen as a net negative for companies to use, the beatings should continue.

And if that day never comes I hope companies are ok with that negativity being a constant presence forever.

I literally don't care. You don't get a pass for using the theft machine powered by a forsaken child because you're too old to understand it's bad.

Such moderation. Civil discourse triumphs!!

The pop will be more like a thermonuclear blast that sends us back to the stone age even more so than the 2008 financial crisis.

Are Lutnick and friends even building all these data centers. Who knows. And that doesn't even take into account the invasion of Taiwan when all these chip factories will be confiscated by the CCP. NVIDIA's balance sheet is mostly IOU's from big tech. With Elon Musk already selling SpaceXs compute to Antrhopic. 

Also explaining to people who are like 5% dumber than a smart person how to use it is like teaching them Chinese.

Corrine is about the only honest trans revolutionary/socialist that's been on Era.

So much that she contributed in killing PoliEra. We know there was also a communist discord that they were in war with and Corrine participated with.

Oh I wondered if that doc was still around. Completely unhinged

Edit: reading through some of the doc again, so much of it is just "I don't like that they have opinions " like how they dare to say that "trans genocide" is an incredibly loaded word they feel uncomfortable with

That outfit for the MC is atrocious holy shit.

 

Yup. First thing that struck me.

Female MC looks like she's in her mid teens? Check.
Boob window? Check.
Trousers so tight you can see individual ass cheeks? Check.

Just pathetic.

 
  
Even the Feminist Frequency types who use these character designs as topics of critique are FAR less vitriolic than the average burka brigadier on RE. If these guys see a female videogame character with her titties and ass out, they'll respond as if their values were personally attacked then proceed to log onto their bluesky/reddit account (under the same username btw) to jerk it to the most taboo fetishistic hentai imaginable.  
 
And this is without getting into the transbian shit that's a cheatcode to the same goonerbrained behavior but we're all familiar with that.

Is there a good starting point for PoliERA implosion? I'm making my way through post-election 2024 fallout today

I can try to dig it up if HaughtyFrank's link doesn't go close enough to it. But to summarize from memory...

I posted Nepenthe's house months before all this popped off:


Many months later Nepenthe posted something about how the "collective nation of Jewish people" needed to take responsibility for the genocide. Then refused to elaborate when this obviously questionable take was questioned.

On here I posted Nepenthe's Twitter where she explicitly called for a genocide of Israelis (and non-Black Americans for that matter) on Oct 7th, 2023 and also said that if Palestinians "wanted" an authoritarian state to rule over them that was their right. (Oddly I continue to be the only one who seems to express major issue with this second tweet. This is why y'all aren't serious.)

PoliEra was aware enough of The Bire that this got to them and eventually someone posted it on Era, with the staff reacting instantly to permabanning the person and shutting down discussion.

I had posted her house since that original time and probably had posted it around this time again. In any case, the staff at Era saw I had posted her house. This led to police and prison abolitionist Nepenthe filing a police report with her local police about The Bire on legal advice from the security guard at her pharmacy.

This was part of the charges against PoliEra too. However there were additional charges from B-Dubs and Hecht looking through their Discord. One person admitted visiting Kiwi Farms to see if there was more information on Nepenthe's genocidal views. Visiting certain websites was considered a severe violation of Era terms of service. Additionally a member had joked that they hoped Nepenthe kept up her insane rhetoric because it'd get the FBI to look into her. B-Dubs considered this the worst thing anyone on Era has ever done because, and I'm not quoting but you know my knack(™) for near-verbatim phrasing, YOU CAN NOT JOKE ABOUT THINGS LIKE THIS IF EVEN ONE PERSON TOOK THAT SERIOUSLY LIVES COULD BE PUT IN DANGER. Never did B-Dubs explain why this logic only ever applied to a single Discord message seen by maybe tens or hundreds of people rather than the stuff posted daily on his forum including by staff members such as Nepenthe.

In any case, B-Dubs led a purge of a bunch of PoliEra posters including the guy who made the OTs and handed it over to mentally deficient and subliterate krazen who has failed to follow the directive to make new threads every so often. They were also holding a permaban over the heads of people to try and take more control over the Discord.

The only thing Nepenthe has ever said about her clear calls for genocide is complaining that she's not allowed to post about the topic anymore. Nobody has ever said anything about the fact that she said multiple times that various ethnicities need to "go back where they belong."

One thing to mention. All this really ignited when a PoliEra user (can’t remember the name) caught a ban because he used the term ‘sexual slavery’ when referring to hostages taken by Hamas. The admin apparently considered that Islamophobic/racist and banned him for it, causing PoliEra to go up in arms. Then Plagarize infamously marched out saying sexual slavery wasn’t happening. People started quoting and linking the UN Report confirming at the time and he did the ‘it’s sexual assault, not sexual slavery’ defense. Working IT for a prison system made him an expert, according to him.

EDIT:


There it is.

If the UN has accused Hamas of using hostages as sex slaves, I certainly haven't seen any reporting on that. If it's out there, it would be helpful to have that provided, because when I look at Brady's post that's *clearly* a massive accusation and for me it comes out of nowhere. And yes, I know that hostages have been victims of sexual assault, as is depressingly common with prisoners in conflicts like this, but that's not the same thing at all.

And never once backed down or admitted that is a horrific platform to try and defend the rat ass ban they made.

Holy dismissing concerns Bdubbs.

When did Resetera get a team of hackers?

Needless to say, if I don't get my account back, I'm retiring from gaming and podcasting forever. So let's hope it all works out!

Wonder if they’d be able to make a thread to celebrate or would that still be a ban?

I'm surprised that on Ree 'tastes' and behaviour haven't changed as they've grown older. You'd think that they'd evolve, in their own freaky way obviously but still.

The email said “they have your information” so I dunno why he believes was an inside job.  

The 2FA is not exactly fool proof.

This could have been so much worse.

When I lived in San Diego, you'd see Friday prayers at this mosque make the entire neighborhood filled with thousands of people, without fail.

I'll also add that in recent weeks and months, when I go to Friday prayers every week, I always wonder if it will be the last time for me. Or if I'll even return to my kids in an hour. My mind can't help but go there. This country is broken.

PoliERA Discord user Addie would announce support of continued use of Nepenthe’s screenshotted Twitter content:

In connection with the tweet thread Nepenthe posted, users of conservative harassment site TheBore would go on to fully doxx Nepenthe and post photos in front of her house.

In response to the news from Nepenthe that she filed a police report regarding this invasion of her privacy, the PoliERA Discord responded with reactions expressing satisfaction at this turn of events.
