    Slur requires a group of disparaged people to whom the slur is targeted. Beep-boops with no intelligence ain’t fucking people.

    Well, all right. But I don’t want anyone to think we’re robosexual or anything, so if anyone asks, you’re my debugger.

    Elon Musk’s Optimus robot has been coming to work in factories “by the end of the year” for over five years now.

    It’s just another unsubstantiated promise he reuses every year just like the long promised full autonomy of his self-driving cars.

      I’m actually surprised he hasn’t started working on Fusion since that’s similarly always just a few years away. It has been since the 1960s.

    I and at least two other people once called robots “tin cans” on social media. Can mashable turn that into a “news story”, too?

    Inside me there are two tech nerds. One is optimistic towards new tech and has the clanka pass. The other is kicking the dominos robot calling it a clanker

    This DEFINITELY gunna get cꝏpted by rightshits (if it hasn’t already)

    Just sincere enough to not be obvious satire , peops outright saying they’re gonna be “robophobic” (sadly don’t think they’re joking) , probably using mass AI panic to recruit peops rightward … writings on the wall

    So many peops gonna be radicalised into ecofascism (if not just regular degular fascism) it’s scary . Don’t think this funny at all
