Alright. Sounds like bullshit that you’re going to have to deal with, whether or not we’re facing the AI apocalypse, and I sympathise.

I don’t even really know what a 401k is, I’m not from the US. The fact that globally social security systems are failing due to neglect and tax gifts for the rich is a whole other issue.

That doesn’t mean much. If a person is too old to learn a new job, they should be able to retire. If a person’s cognitive ability is THAT low, so low they can’t learn the simplest of jobs, they should probably be in some care facility or (better) be cared for at home with their caretakers (who’ve had proper training) receiving adequate compensation. Why are we talking, in this context, about people who are unable to work anyway?

Don’t get me wrong, I’m very much against what we’ve come to call “AI” and how it’s taking over everything.

What does “can’t be trained for a new job” mean? Why? What’s keeping them from learning a new thing?

Why would I want this? Serious question. How would this benefit anyone?

And the Undertaker did nothing about all this?

As long as I don’t see the necessary area (contiguous) I’m going to assume it’s not there. And then there’s the wheel which just makes it more unlikely that this pet’s owner knows what they’re doing.

That cage (and that wheel!) make me so very sad. Poor thing might be better off if orange got to it.

Have you ever heard the tale of Ea-Nasir?

Oh I know how unions work, they’re quite important and do mostly very good work where I live. I just always assume any unions that manage to even exist in the US are little more than begrudgingly tolerated by employers. I didn’t realise they were referring to actual contractual obligations, I see. Thank you for clarifying.

If there were some external mind, one might at least speculate about its reasons. Which would probably be futile since it would influence those considerations too. Hm. Yeah.

The question is meaningless, the answer doesn’t affect reality, unless you propose an external mind that is controlling or at least influencing our decisions.

I am absolutely on the voice actors’ side here, but isn’t this a less than ideal argument? It seems to presume a right to be employed. If epic don’t want to use voice actors, why would they have to? I’m genuinely asking because isn’t this just a form of automation? Again, on the side of real voice actors, anti gen AI, I’m trying to understand.

I know it’s a British one, I was wondering what region, since OP was talking about his London accent.

Like that, yes.

I remember being extremely well entertained by awesome dragons, and that’s it. Which means you’re probably correct.

What Bale’s native accent?

I am 100% convinced they had a masterpiece and then test audiences didn’t get it and they went and changed everything around and added the prologue and gave away the entire twist at the start by explicitly telling the viewer where and when we are. Also made the dinosaurs weird for … reasons…?

Ah, that makes so much sense.

Goodness, you’re being very serious.

My opinion of you is definitely my problem, true. You did seem interested, based on the fact that you posted in a public place, but I suppose that was an error on my part. Good day, sir/ma’am (genderneutral).
