turns out duckduckgo does AI search result summaries too, although at least you can turn the little bastards off
if there was ever a reason for going full ted kaczynski and enjoying the crisp taste of coke zero™ that would be it

They shriek, endlessly, about their outgroups being cults while blocking anybody who disagrees with them (the actual cultiest thing you can do)

the texture of a blade of grass is slightly rough. slightly ragged. impossible to describe to someone who has never experienced it
it's like you're trying to convince me to bully you
why do I need to know where to "draw the line" when something clearly sucks shit?
> billionaire funds the mass production of vampires
> "look, people have been eating meat for ages. where do you draw the line? you can't say this is bad unless you draw the line"
brain throbbing furiously hang on... if artists produced what we say is moving and novel work WHILE wealthy people threw money at whatever bullshit they wanted, that must mean wealthy people throwing money at whatever bullshit they want is good

DefendingAIArt is a subreddit run by mod "Trippy-Worlds," who also runs the debate sister subreddit AIWars. Some poking around made clear that AIWars is perfectly fine with having overt Nazis around, for example a guy with heil hitler in his name who accuses others of lying because they are "spiritually jewish." So we're off to a great start.

you hate to see it. another commenter points out that well ... maybe these people just aren't your friends
to close out, an example of fearmongering:

decentralized cult which worships the concept of rational thinking as superior to evidence. has lots of little rituals which are supposed to invoke rational thinking. uses AI in the place of angels and demons. no core holy texts, but the closest things are a sequence of blog posts and a harry potter fanfic. very influential in silicon valley, very intermingled with various explicitly fascist groups
