I love how nobody talks about westboro baptist church anymore because in 2025 they've basically become redundant and mundane, blending in with the classless, venomous and extremist tenor of public discourse

We did get a no-protest law for federal burials? Based Daddy B 🤤

That was like their thing - 'Thank God for dead soldiers'.

Exactly.

Feelings summed up about AI and Machine Learning algorithms. Especially when engineering schools are training students in AI chip design - to join the industry and create the AI tools that will literally replace them in their jobs as AI chip designers.

I wonder if old dudes said this about Excel.

Yep they did.

I feel like you could replace "calculator" with "AI", and a lot of the concerns from the 1970's would seem perfectly relevant today.

This is a half-baked take. It's not a good analogy. Calculators have a specific purpose of doing math.

Large Language Models are capable of so much more than just doing math, or any one specific task. In addition, calculator technology was not the driving force behind the world economy - like AI chip design is.

Remember when Jurassic park came out and there was a war against movies that used cgi instead of practical vex?

If I recall the practical effects artist for Jurassic Park when he saw the computer animation said that he was extinct and then Steven Spielberg put that line in the movie and we all were like ha ha ha that’s cool.

Yea, the plot to Jurassic Park is pretty much the plot to any new technology, including AI.
