“A.I. is scary because people who use it are going to stop thinking”
Bro, people don’t even think right now.
Thinking is hard work.
It’s uncomfortable.
It’s a thing only weirdos do.

Todo el tiempo pienso en satoshi
Not sure what to think of that. 😂
@grok explain this
Most people hating against AI are so blatantly uneducated about what it actually is that their opinion is totally irrelevant
I'm a weirdo, I think, and I married my husband who also thinks! While dating him I told him he was my kind of weird! 😎
I use AI because I am thinking, and I want more information, so I can make my own conclusions and have my own thoughts about things.
Yet another anti intellectual post by HODL
Reply to this if you have an actual point
Weird be where it at!
If someone opens with "I've been thinking ..." the best thing to do is interrupt them with "Don't"
Reliance on AI has been shown to cause cognitive decline.
AI is an extremely useful tool but chatbots are making people retarded.
Ai is making people *even more retarded (and unoriginal). The video stuff, translations, captions and other mindless tasks are a no brainer though
Just don't outsource your thinking
It's a net positive BC it raises the floor of braindead idiots to {current model}
Everyone here is a weirdo.
This is why I'm Bullish the future:
Thinking is effortful. 🤔
Critical thinking that questions your in-group bias takes intentional effort and social bravery. 🦸♂️
The Bitcoiners I've interacted with have arrived at a conviction about Bitcoin through critical thinking often against their in-group opinions about it. 🤴
By being early they have already accumulated a large portion of the future money of the world. 💰
These future capital holders of the world will apply critical thinking as they deploy this capital to future endeavors. 🏗️
This is a stark contrast to the previous capital accumulation that went primarily to the politically well connected. 🏛️🍆🤑
Interesting times we live in for sure 😂🙈
Hello my fellow weirdos
when people don't think, they become mindless
when people don't use their muscles, they waste away
when a building is not used, it reverts to a ruin
fish and insect species trapped in caves lose their sight because they don't need it
the Universe doesn't allow us to keep things we don't use
please, keep thinking

i like this. i believe intelligence is something we can all achieve if we work at it.
especially children--if they can follow their own interests before being put into the education system.
the 2 % book smart people have been able to comfortably carve out their own path within the education system.
the rest of people who might be brilliant in other ways get stripped of their creative branches on multiple choice tests.
" just as the stomach naturally produces pepsin to aid digestion, the mind naturally generates thoughts" — my grandfather in the Dharma
thoughts come and go. let them go.
wisdom arrives naturally when we sift sand for gold.
🎯❤️🤙
Yeah. I was that weirdo, back in the 90s. My parents were those weirdos, back in the 70s...
Most people who think a lot have no idea how little other people think because so much of intelligence is genetic. Also, it leads to sociological-assortative mating, friendships, and colleagues, so "people who think" are a tiny minority who think they're the norm because the people around them also tend think.
The same way that most rich people assume they're middle-class, most beautiful women consider themselves mediocre, and most popular people insist they're generally disliked and unknown.

When your not sure if Laeserin is teasing or complementing you…..

I'm exaggerating a bit, but I sometimes write at-or-above the 10th-grade level and most adult American adults read at-or-below the 6th-grade level.
Communicating at the 10th-grade level in a quick-moving online discussion is genius-level chatting.
You have to be supersmart, just to shitpost with us and comprehend the memes. 🤷🏻♀️
I’ve always had an extremely high verbal IQ (which is genetic) but I realized most don’t, so I do this thing when Im speaking where I use the “fancy” word (the appropriate word) and then immediately give its definition without interrupting the flow. So something like… “a hard fork is a bifurcation of the network, it splits it into two parts” that little coda at the end really helps bring 90% of the audience in and doesn’t offend the 10%. Many smart people will just say the “fancy” word and then continue on not realizing they just lost the majority of the audience. Conversely when I do not want to be understood by the majority, I will crank up the language dial to 11 and speak exclusively in S.A.T words. This becomes a cypher for the majority of speakers and they quickly tune out. This is useful for controversial or sensitive topics.
The fact that you can do this, recognize it in yourself, and articulate it says even more.
Skills > tools
(they’re also perishable!)
It’s tough, but after many years of introspection sometimes I do gain insight into my own thought processes and behaviors.
Good copy. The act of introspection (and self improvement) are sadly lacking these days. I’ve coached and mentored a lot of high performing people and noticed that many have skills that are highly transferable (not tied to physical tools). Parallels nicely with Bitcoin: wealth that can be carried in your head! Have a great weekend.
I usually speak around the 5th-grade level, with various dialects and slang and a bit cursing. Also, idioms, poetic speech, patterns, that sort of thing. And speaking in intentionally-wrong grammar.
More funner.
Another thing I do, to keep myself entertained, without losing my audience, is use a lot of metaphors and similes. They're like audial memes.
I tend to not debate or argue with anyone IRL, unless they're unusually confident and quick-witted.
But I write however I like. I need some outlet where I can just say precisely what I mean and where I don't have to pretend to be vapid and avoid confrontation.
Most ppl outsource their thinking anyway—to media, influencers, bosses, traditions. AI just makes it obvious. Real thinking has always been the minority sport.😝😝
Exactly, AI isn’t scary, lazy humans are. Thinking is the real horror story here 😎
precisely!

No reason to worry about a slippery slope when you’re at the bottom of the hill
There’s a solution to a lot of this…
🤯😶🌫️ Thinking is hard 😂😂 GM! Happy SATurday!!
It is getting scary how divorced from reality the majority of humanity has become.

They only thing scary is will it see bitcoin's power usage as a threat.
