> According to Discord, only a small number of users were part of this test, in which any information submitted could be stored for up to seven days before it would be deleted.
Ah yes, we only store it for 7 days. During those 7 days, we pass it to Persona, and who knows how long they keep it!
The way I read that is Discord would delete your data, but they were taking an intentionally hands off approach to the data broker they subcontracted to identify you.
If a tech company says something to you, and they don't give you the means to verify it on your own, they are lying to you. Do not trust anything they say, ever.
Shit like that makes me cringe. Muh food. Already I know what kind of shallow life the author leads, one full of inessential frippery, whose discussions over dinner or drink never orbit anything actually substantial.
What shall we decide on the important matters of eating or drinking tonight fellow humans???
The article seems to be overreacting to a small part of Pope Leo's talk. It seems to me his real point was that using AI to hasten writing homilies leads priests to treat this work as busy work instead of thoughtful, focused work.
Priests who use generative AI to craft their homilies should openly share the prompts they rely on, because those prompts shape the theology, tone, and pastoral direction of what is proclaimed from the pulpit. In a community rooted in trust and accountability—especially within the Catholic Church—transparency about AI use is not optional but a moral obligation.
Yes, my sense of the passage of time is a little off. I've met folks who were members of the FDJ in East Germany as young teens, but as you say, they are 50-ish now.
AI is the resource drain. Humans create a lot of waste but in a mostly renewable way. It is machines and AI that burn orders of magnitude more energy, and at least machines do efficient work. AI is at best a search engine with semantic reasoning and it requires entire datacenters to run.
I get where you're coming from emotionally, yes, humans suck. But you are not being logical. You're letting your edgy need for attention cloud your judgement. You are basically the kind of human the AI would select against first.
How am I being edgy? And why do you have the assumption that any kind of future AI is an LLM search engine? It's not, it has nothing to do with LLMs. It's a equivalent function to a humans brain using the same amount of energy, and can be synthesized and mass produced on demand.
I never said humans suck. I just don't want to be replaced or killed in my lifetime. I don't even use LLMs for writing code because I despise those companies.
