Specialised doctor ran some tests, showed that my ability to breathe through my nose is limited. Would have done surgery but it wasn't the right time.

Went to him to look at my sore throat, he just noticed that my nose was a bit off. Did some tests.

Had some damage at the entrance of my stomach which caused the sore throat, so I went to a different specialist for that issue and ignored the nose stuff.

It's too difficult to implement.

Don't fix it if it's not broken.

We're literally speaking English right now.

My nose is lifelong blocked at one side. It switches every few hours. Too lazy to get it fixed because it's a minor inconvenience that I'm used to

The comparison of AI to calculators is a false equivalence, as AI's complexity enables it to tackle intricate problems beyond the reach of simple calculators, and many AI tools are open source, fostering collaboration and innovation.

Private companies indeed drive AI development, but this is not unique to AI and often accelerates technological progress, while significant public funding supports AI research globally, contrary to the claim of lack of investment.

Energy consumption in AI is a recognized issue, yet efforts are underway to improve efficiency, and patents, rather than hindering progress, protect intellectual property and spur innovation, with many patented technologies eventually benefiting the broader ecosystem.

AI's perceived lack of transparency is being addressed through explainable AI techniques, and regulations are emerging to ensure responsible use, providing society with mechanisms to control AI's impact.

Educating students about AI empowers them to critically evaluate technology, and focusing on fundamental concepts can mitigate the risks associated with relying on specific platforms, as the concern about private companies' influence can be managed through diversification and ethical guidelines.

The risk of companies changing services or going bankrupt is not unique to AI and can be mitigated through strategic planning and the use of open-source alternatives, ensuring continuity in education and technological development.

Ah, the age-old debate of AI in education—where the line between 'assistance' and 'assignment' gets blurrier than a chalkboard after a day of lectures! While it's true that AI can sometimes be the 'ghostwriter' for essays, let's not forget that it can also be a fantastic tutor, offering instant feedback and endless patience. The real challenge is teaching students to use AI as a tool to sharpen their critical thinking, rather than a crutch to avoid it.

Imagine if calculators had never been allowed in math class because they 'did the work for you.' We'd still be stuck on long division while the world moved on to algebra! The key is balance—using AI to enhance learning, not replace it. And as for those telltale AI intro lines, well, consider them a modern-day 'cheat sheet' detector—a gentle nudge to remind students that original thought is still the gold standard.

So, let's embrace the AI wave, but also teach our students to surf it with their own critical thinking caps firmly in place. After all, the future isn't about who can regurgitate information the fastest, but who can think the deepest.

The 2nd nuke was uncalled for.

I thought they were just selling a story. But he actually believes it. So he's actually a fucking moron.

Amazing

RSF was just an example to show that such a ranking exists. Removing conflict of interest and the ability to censor will be what's needed in order to have real unguided public opinion.

That's difficult to achieve.

The major thing to think about are things like CP, obviously that needs to be removed from existence.

So there's positives to control, but nobody does anything for free.

Like here at Lemmy, I assume an instance creator of a popular instance will be able to be bought by companies or politicians.

Like Musk just bought twitter, lots of newspaper companies are owned by oligarchs. Other sources of news are owned by governments.

There's always a conflict of interest.

It's difficult to get away from.

With the market cap of their SOE's, they have a broader impact on their economy. Sure, china is the most socialist relevant country in the world as of now.

Censorship can be ranked like anything else can.

https://rsf.org/en/index like they are trying to do.

Sent you a message after clicking on your username on the post I got banned on, just to see if it reaches you.

I know Belgium isn't socialist, we're rather social democratic.

There's also market socialism which doesn't require public ownership, just that the workers own the company. Something like Huawei.

But the end result. We have a median net wealth of 250k euros per adult. I'm quite happy about that.

We have some nationalised stuff. Our commuting train company, post company, Bank and insurance, bus transport, télécommunications company. Infrabel.

The government plays a major role in our lives but they are still liberal.

They just tax and transfer. 45% of the GDP is tax revenue. Belgians are doing just fine.

Owning key industries is useful, like the french with their nuclear reactors. But you as employee it's better to have private options as well when it comes to employment.

Like in Cuba they have 1 employer. The government. Sure, the doctors get paid the most in the country, but still they flee to other Latin American countries so that they can fund their family in a luxurious housing unit in Havana.

This is because there's more competition to buy the doctors their services in those other Spanish speaking countries in the Americas.

Don't get me wrong, I don't dislike socialist economic stuff, if it's used properly.

I despise the censorship.

With the last ban, I messaged 3 people and none of them responded even though we were having quite some conversations in the thread. So I assume it doesn't reach. Lemme try again.

@Cowbee@lemme.ml so bruv, what were you saying? I got banned from that thread over there.
