To be fair, the guerrilla war that followed the occupation is, indeed, very costly

As a trans person, I appreciate the concern, but no, a joke like this does not detract from the serious harm she does, it highlights it, as the other commenter mentioned

It’s a joke around her hate making fun of her, and it’s a joke that often circulates in exactly the circles of the groups she directs hate at

Ridiculing the evil people do might not fix the problem, but it at least shows a signal that it’s bad and maybe helps create a bit of a culture of shame around being hateful. It should be embarrassing to be a hateful person

The thing with AI, is that it mostly only produces trash now.

But look back to 5 years ago, what were people saying about AI? Hell, many thought that the kind of art that AI can make today would be impossible for it to create! …And then it suddenly did. We’ll, it wasn’t actually suddenly, and the people in the space probably saw it coming, but still.

The point is, we keep getting better at creating AIs that do stuff we thought were impossible a few years ago, stuff that we said would show true intelligence if an AI can do them. And yet, every time some new impressive AI gets developed, people say it sucks, is boring, is far from good enough, etc. While it slowly, every time, creeps on closer to us, replacing a few jobs here and there in the fringes. Sure, it’s not true intelligence, and it still doesn’t beat humans, but, it beats most, at demand, and what happens when inevitably better AIs get created?

Maybe we’re in for another decades long AI winter… or maybe we’re not, and plenty more AI revolutions are just around the corner. I think AIs current capabilities are frighteningly good, and not something I expected to happen this soon. And the last decade or so has seen massive progress in this area, who’s to say where the current path stops?
