    Machine Learning is especially useful for many different kinds of research as an advanced mode of statistical analysis.

    Text and image generation is not especially useful in any field other than to cut corners on paying human artists and writers and programmers to do the job properly.

    The flu is a familiar disease, and young people with strong immune systems rarely die from it or experience long-term health consequences from having had it. So it’s not scary to most people, because they’ve never lived through a flu outbreak as bas as the spanish flu, and because they don’t know anyone for whom getting the flu would be a death sentence.

    But Covid was a worse pandemic because when it infects, it can be completely benign or completely suffocating, and there’s very little way of knowing which will happen to you. And if you do get it, there’s a much higher chance it leaves serious scars that you’ll carry for the rest of your life.

    People need to treat bad things as bad and be willing to set aside familiarity and comfort for the safety and well-being of others. Instead they downplay how bad something they don’t understand is going to be, because they want others to believe the same and not change their behavior, because their own comfort is more important than protecting the people who will be hurt the most








  • Bad take. You don’t shame people for being unable to make sounds that aren’t in their native language. If someone spoke Mandarin all their life and learned English, but had to approximate the “L” sound with “R”, you wouldn’t have this reaction claiming that allowing that approximation is turning everything into Mandarin
