Come to think of it, “share and enjoy” is exactly the way I would expect an AI-generated YouTube video to end.

      When someone calls you a nimrod, do you start going on about how the word “actually” means a great hunter?

      Regardless of its root, the word luddite has a clear meaning. I find it hilarious the anti-ai bros wear it as a badge of honor, thinking they are somehow bringing the old meaning back when the current common one describes them exactly; someone who is stupidly against progress and new technologies.

          David Attenborough narrating:

          “Here, we can clearly see the flying squid, a true master of jumping out of the water and gliding through the air, preying upon an unsuspecting ranter. In the blink of an eye, the squid jumps. With it, a joke flies over the ranter, whose stress levels rise exponentially. Dazed by the demonstration, it tries to counterattack, but it is futile, for another joke carried by the flying squid flies right over its head.”

        Well there is revisionism going on, but I don’t think it’s from me.

        Believe it or not, people wrote things down in the early part of the 19th century so we actually know what the Luddites thought and why they did what they did.

            Again, I think someone here was being wilfully ignorant, but I’m pretty sure it’s the person who decided the truth about the Luddites was historical revisionism.

                I never said I was “General Ludd.” I thanked you for the compliment. You then said it was historical revisionism, the article I pasted. Then I pointed out that their own words said otherwise. Then you called me wilfully ignorant, at which point I pointed out refusing to believe their words would be the wilfully ignorant stance.

                Incidentally, there’s no actual evidence Ned Ludd existed. He was a symbol. So yes, I’m fully aware I’m a real person that exists, thank you.

                Also, I’m not even sure what you think my ideas are. Are you under the bizarre impression that I’m one of the two people in the image I posted? Or are you talking about what I said about You Tube?
