CanadaPlus, to asklemmy in What would you do if you had access to a superintelligent AGI?

How would that work. Electrons are very well understood, as are the ways of getting them to move.

I put more weight on the description text, but yes that was in the title.

Even if we assume it’s a god, though, I’m not sure there’s a way to improve on most kinds of generators more than incrementally. I don’t expect it would improve on “the wheel” either.

CanadaPlus, to asklemmy in What would you do if you had access to a superintelligent AGI?

You’re assuming a human could do that on a computer, though. It’s kind of hard to improve on that basic and very mature technology.

CanadaPlus, to asklemmy in What's a true fact that is so misleading it's borderline misinformation?

Haha, that’s even weirder sounding.

CanadaPlus, to RedditMigration in I'm no climate scientist, but it looks to me like we might have skipped over oops.

Crop production might actually go up globally, however unevenly. War is the more likely outcome as the losers get desperate and the winners don’t care.

CanadaPlus, to RedditMigration in r/TIHI has been banned for being unmoderated.

We are under no obligation to pretend that’s not a tissue-paper thin disguise for getting the moderators to act how Reddit wants here.

CanadaPlus, to RedditMigration in Random Account Suspension

The good old euphemism treadmill.

CanadaPlus, to asklemmy in You can have any superpower, but the first person to reply chooses a side effect

On the other hand, maybe you could fly somehow.

CanadaPlus, to asklemmy in Why is a millennium old fossilised human poop on display at the Archaeological Resource Centre in the UK?

I like the big metal clamps holding it there.

Is it actually fossilised, if it's only a millennium old?

CanadaPlus, to asklemmy in You can have any superpower, but the first person to reply chooses a side effect

Air is a fluid, though.

CanadaPlus, to asklemmy in You can have any superpower, but the first person to reply chooses a side effect

Hah! You clearly don't understand the power of refrigeration.

CanadaPlus, to asklemmy in You can have any superpower, but the first person to reply chooses a side effect

Ehh. Just look up pictures of nude beaches or something.

And then to an orphan somewhere. You monster.

Self-detonation.

CanadaPlus, to asklemmy in Teaching children about online manipulation without creating a paranoid world view subject to manipulation?

There's no magic bullet. Manipulation exists, and manipulation based on claims of manipulation exists.

I recommend you explain but don't force your view of the world onto kids, and tech kids how to think well for themselves instead. So, just steer them towards things like history, social sciences and to a degree hard sciences and let them make sense of the world for themselves.
