increasingly clear that when tech nerds refer to "AGI" they just mean trying to invent a type of girl who will like them

@ana AGI = "a girl interested". 🤭

@ana I was thinking about why techbros online treat other people like NPCs but believe the chatbot is sentient. Is it just the sycophancy? "I am smart so if someone agrees with me then they're also smart"

Going forward, all humanoid robots should look like Arnold Schwarzenegger, so we know where we stand.

Not saying it isn't also a sex bot, but still.

@ana Nope sista, you making it look funny but funny it is not. Tech nerds refer to AGI as a religion, and it's a pretty shitty one at that. Look this name up: Jaron Lanier. He calls it like it is. More than a couple of lectures on YT. Good stuff.
