More and more, living with parents is no longer a loser thing, but a reality of survival under capitalism... yes i live with my mum... yes my point remains valid.

Completely agree, the only reason I don't is because I live with my partner, aka double earning household without kids, and we even though for a good while before commiting.

Leaving your parents and living alone is economic suicide nowadays.

Agreed. It's not at all uncommon in other parts of the world and even in the west it's getting impractical for many to afford even apartments with how elevated prices have gotten. The whole "basement dweller" insult needs to die. It's not just lazy cringe-lords. It's motivated people who've had some bad luck, it's families, it's people with illnesses and disabilities. It's honestly on a similar level to calling things "retarded." It's not 1994 anymore. The world has changed.

And don't worry, I'm bitter about it.

Depends on if you live in some poor shithole country like the U.S.A.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago

I live in a different poor shithole - the U.K.

To be honest, this is likely the most true of all. There already are AI generated articles out there. You could ask ChatGPT to write you a cynical take on any topic and post it.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 11 months ago

Not sure why you got downvoted. You didn't say all writers. But some writers for sure. Even that lazy blogger who would rather have AI write posts that they would have written otherwise.

Do I like that? No. But it's a reality.

AI could replace truck drivers.

AI could replace shitty journalism that forgot about the luddites.

smugly Lol learn to code plebs, just reskill.

Can't say I feel the slightest sympathy for smuggies.

"everyone should learn to code six figure salary no degree"

Modern Day

"what do you mean my job is worth less than it was a decade ago I thought le heckin programmers were still the most in demand, low supply job in the world??"

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

Every journalist who said 'learn to code' to people on Twitter deserves to lose their job, not have it replaced by AI. And twitter sided with them, making telling journalists to learn to code a bannable offense in idk ~2020.

I don't think you understand, people who disagree with us are basement dwelling losers. That makes us the cool ones.

Yet another unfunny pizzacake comic. Keep that garbage on Reddit.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

Thanks Man. I also want to put the sources but I was too afraid to link Reddit and Instagram.

Problem with AI is how with current political and economical system it makes you feudal.
