The Year of the Rat: AI


I saw a commercial last night that really disturbed me. 


A young woman has company over her apartment. She took a break from a group discussion to consult an AI reference on what topics to discuss with her peers. 


On the surface, it seemed like an innocent use of technology for someone who finds it hard to carry on conversation in a social setting. 


...but then I thought it about it. I really thought about it. And the more I thought about it the more disturbed I became. 


We have AI writing shorty essays with no references in seconds. AI is automating responses that humans used to give. AI is now on the verge of giving diagnoses in hospitals. 

I'm not saying technology isn't a good thing. But it is alarming to think that it will become a social norm to no even have to come up with an original thought or topic for a social gathering.

I come from the last generation that had to actually read paper and hard back books. I worked in a library while I was in college. If you wanted to do a research paper you had to open a book at some point. You had to site your sources. 

When you ask most AI programs where the information comes from you get an evasive response.

I remember a book we had to read back in the day called "1984."

In that book all of history had been re-written. It was such a restrictive and oppressive "utopia" that the government controlled all forms of media and documentation of such media and historical texts. 

The general public was under surveillance in their own homes by "Big Brother" 24 hours a day.

In our reality, libraries are losing funding and being closed down, books are being banned and edited for "offensive content," and in some universities Wikipedia is considered a primary source. 

All I'm saying is that we created AI. AI should be no less accountable than the people who had to site their sources to get their degrees to be qualified to create the programs. 

And people please take the time to get to know yourself and expand your knowledge so that you don't have to ask an artificial intelligence program what to say at parties.

Goon Elimination Techniques

If you love martial arts movies like I do then you already know the formula. ....but I'm not here to talk about that today. I showed up to blow up how those poor unfortunate souls tasked with protecting the bad guy get LAID OUT by the hero. 11. The Warning Yell. -Look, y'all bout to get fucked up. This is the emergency get-yo-ass-out the way broadcast system. This is not a test.   10 . Slappin' ya face! -These goons are so low level that an open hand and a yell is all it takes to get them out of the way. Some might mistake these moves for chops or pressure points. Naw, this be straight up pimpin' without the baby powder.  Yeah I know, she is using a shoe. But that shit is still funny!   The real Slap Attack! 9. Get Outta Here! -What Scorpion would do with these fools, the hero does the opposite. He or She literally shoves, flips, or kicks them out of the way. While finding themselves dazed and confused their brains are no longer required t...

TRYING ME 05/23/25

  There is this dumb, fake ass bitch at my job has been trying me since I was hired.  She's married, overweight and recently a new mother.  When I was hired, she was pregnant and I thought I would only be at the company until she returned from maternity leave.  Before she left, she made sure to act a complete ass towards me whenever possible.  While training me the Ukraine Russia conflict came up (this was back in the early stages). I made a comment (it was just me and her in the room) generally stating that Russia needs to stop flexing because it is affecting the US economy (and it was because we had to impose shipping fees on our customers etc.). This bitch proceeds to raise her voice and scold me about how people are dying and what not.  I let it go. I didn't say anything to her for 2 reasons:  1. The bitch was so pregnant I didn't want to put her into labor.  2. The bitch was so pregnant she obviously was miserable and cognitively impaired....

HOOD RAT ESPIONAGE

 I know I'm wrong.  Calling someone a hood rat is disrespectful, borderline racist (depending on who is using it and context), and just ratchet.  But some bitches out here exhibit the type of behavior that warrants no other mot juste. I have had 2 separate seemingly unrelated women try this shit on me within 6 months.  The first one was a mother of 4 children. Her baby's father (of the 3 smallest) is an alcoholic and, according to her, abusive.  This woman has ghosted me more than once. I should have taken the hint and just left her alone.  After lending her money (which she paid back) and calling the police on her drunk ass baby daddy at her request,  she proceeded to admonish me for my "negative energy." I texted her on the day of her planned birth of the 3rd child of this fool and asked if the "demon" was still at the house. She had previously told me that she didn't want this man at the birth of his own child.  I got a nasty text about negativ...
