people are genuinely scared of a roko's basilisk scenario? are they stupid?
realistically no, the number of people genuinely scared of a roko's basilisk scenario rounds down to zero, but the number of people scared of what AI might do to the world is significantly higher.
The Coming Weeks of Love
I write this as a joke but we found someone new this morning.

Anyways when I was sixteen I wrote a story about a spaceship's communications officer (think Uhura) who was given a brain implant when he was a baby that automatically translates every language in the universe, but which interferes with his ability to perceive and process subtle changes in tone. He hears an emotionless automated translator voice inside his head rather than hearing the real voices being physically carried by air vibrations. So he has the ability to interpret every word in every language, but he can never interpret tone of voice. And the ultimate message of the story is that understanding every possible text isn't enough -- if you don't understand subtext, you'll be isolated. The "communications officer" actually struggles to communicate more than anyone else on the ship.
You'll never guess what they diagnosed me with a year later.
It's just me, the seven other me's, and the eldritch abomination who speaks with multiple voices.

I...tried to make a meme and got carried away and made A Thing that is like partially unfinished because i spent like 3 hours on it and then got tired.
I think this is mostly scientifically accurate but truth be told, there seems to be relatively little research on succession in regards to lawns specifically (as opposed to like, pastures). I am not exaggerating how bad they are for biodiversity thoughโrecent research has referred to them as "ecological deserts."
