@DW2 Overall, it's kind of accurate. The nihilism and cynicism came in from our Gen X elders I suspect. Seeing the systems that benefitted both of generation's parents fail and betray us repeatedly only exacerbated this. Knowing the boomers took a safe homogeneous society for granted doesn't help with the bitterness about losing it either. There's a sadness of that loss in Millenials withdrawing - they remember the end of the fun and the world before that in the 80s, 90s, even the 00s a bit. Gen X only did a bit better at escaping the collapse and they seem like even more of a silent generation save for having a more centralized culture and thus cultural figureheads in stuff like grunge music. Where are they now though? They turned inwardly too. I think there's major divergences in experiences when the poster talks about 9/11, Obama, Occupy, the Tea Party and Bernie. I hope some of us have been gradually checking out of the system over the years and not becoming full on reddit consoomers. This guy also isn't mentioning that there's not a huge brain-trust or signs of competence or this trend changing with the zoomer broccolihead faggots either. Where is the great Gen Z or Gen X authors? They aren't churning out Thomas Pynchons either. It could just be a huge multi-generational historic cultural gap in history that begins after boomers maybe. Especially with the way they have influenced the course of things for 60 years now and seem hellbent on ending things like generational wealth with their demise. TL:DR I wish my generation would step up and be remembered as the one that burned it all down at this point honestly.
@KingDenizen@justnormalkorean Katt Williams said they made niggers cross-dress and stuff for success in Hollywood, this is what I was thinking of. Good luck finding that clip though.
@justnormalkorean It's gonna be crippled af like Gemini, huh? >We believe in safe, responsible AI practices. This means we have taken and continue to take reasonable steps to prevent the misuse of Stable Diffusion 3 by bad actors. Safety starts when we begin training our model and continues throughout the testing, evaluation, and deployment. In preparation for this early preview, we’ve introduced numerous safeguards. By continually collaborating with researchers, experts, and our community, we expect to innovate further with integrity as we approach the model’s public release. https://stability.ai/news/stable-diffusion-3
@justnormalkorean >2 out of 3 paragraphs in release announcement dedicated to safety. Sounds expensive in terms of processing cycles. It will be interesting if a cat and mouse game of SAI censoring and users de-censoring core models has begun. Also, enough poojeets and women in this company photo to inspire additional worry.
