WHAT PEOPLE THINK ETHICAL ISSUES IN AI ARE: wow.... we're creating... new life........
WHAT ETHICAL ISSUES IN AI ACTUALLY ARE: techbros worshiping the almighty algorithm, not caring to look at what bad patterns the machines are picking up (racism, sexism, etc) and how to avert them, and overreliance on neural networks meaning that said algorithms are treated as magical black boxes where nobody wants to (or can, really) point out exactly how the equation works (and why it may be faulty)

"There are people who seem to get really offended about gender fluidity or non-binary folks- but those are just people who feel like their gender is is insecure, you know? and in this day and age it *is* important to keep your gender secure. your gender should contain lowercase letters, uppercase letters, at least one number and one symbol"

Y'all don't even realize how good I am at being asexual on main.
I've been so good that you don't realize that EVERYTHING I post is asexual on main.
Isn't that fucking rad?

"Do you have a moment?" the empath said.
"Of course, dear," said the telepath.
"You know I can't help reading feelings?"
"Yes?"
"Please read my mind."
"If you... Oh. I don't love you any more?"
"I thought you ought to know."
"Thank you. I still like you?"
"Yes."
"Enough?"
"Yes."

I close the book with a sigh. It seemed promising, but disappointingly had paradoxes in its time travel premise. I pick up my unwinder, to get the time I wasted on the book back.
*click*
I pick up a book. This one seems promising.

Did you know that "git checkout -" works much like "cd -" and switches back and forth between two branches?

"I put my hammer down," Thor said, "knowing only someone worthy could lift it,"
"Did someone steal it?"
"Would a worthy person steal?"
"So where is it?"
Thor stared into the distance. "A dog took it."
"Won't it return to you?"
"Not while it's held by someone worthy."

My Ultimate Sonic the Hedgehog take is that they should have changed the series to "Sonic, A Hedgehog" when they started introducing more of them.
