Interesting analogy. Basically, yeah - you’ve got to tailor how you speak to the specific topic, participants, and goals you have for what you’re trying to convey. There’s no overriding universal truth, and adaptability certainly makes for a good communicator.

Paragraphs help. Please, for the sanity of your readers use paragraphs (appropriately).

There’s some fine nuance to finding that balance, though. If the word I want to use is less well-known, but better fits what I’m trying to say (or is significantly shorter than “going the long way around”), then I’m more likely to use it. I think most everybody should strive to communicate as clearly as possible, and that may entail learning the occasional new word. Intentionally “talking down” can be insulting, as well as a step towards Idiocracy if we all start doing it together.

I get that it’s appropriate in certain situations, or for certain audiences, but I try to stretch my brain to keep it learning (and therefore more sharp), and I hope most others strive to better their communication skills as well. IMHO it’s necessary both to succeed, and to evolve.

I’d rather be who I am than let all this bullshit force me to play dumb. I earned my ability to speak (somewhat) intelligently, and I’m not going to let the AI bros discredit that effort. I, for one, refuse to contribute to the Idiocracy outcome the control freaks want.

My, what an arrogant, assuming condescension. Maybe go out and touch grass. I’d shoot you down further, but I’m not as childish as you so I know not to bother wasting my time further. Maybe we’ll talk when you outgrow your teenage-level testosterone-driven mentality. For now, blocked.

…we have all known about AI racial bias and hallucinations for many years…

AI being new…

Which is it?

What I said is demonstrably true, and - unless Thomas & Alito are dumb enough to stick things out past the current administration’s ability to replace them - we are going to be suffering the effects of the stacked Supreme Court having the final word for quite some time.

I wish I still had your capacity for hope.

Glad to see that, but a single example does not a reliable precedent make — particularly under the current grip of the judicial system by conservatives.

They’re outsourcing the logic to the AI provider, so they can pass the buck and proclaim innocence - in some cases it’s even likely true.

If it’s the cheapest modus operandi the bean counters can find to accomplish the task, you bet they can.

This close to election time, they’re probably putting on a show — all charges will be quietly dropped after the first week of November.

I guess it’s good if your vehicle goes up in flames after being hit by a tanker or something. Grabbing my dashcam’s SD card might not occur to me on the way out of escaping my burning vehicle.

As long as that age is over 18.

Go outside. Touch grass. Deprogram.

I wouldn’t worry about it - it’s become a rotating door of late. Meet the new boss, same as the old boss.

While a large majority of Americans say democracy is the best form of government, two-in-three also feel that U.S. democracy is in danger of failing, according to a new Reuters/Ipsos poll conducted June 12-15.

That’s partly because America isn’t really the proper democracy it’s sold as.

If that’s what the other guy meant, then he’s just swapping where the thirds are grouped.

So what are the third that aren’t saying it’s failing?

What’s the odds they just ignore the ruling as others have done?

Time to change the passwords on their rifles.
