We got ourselves to the moon using limited technology, but we were the ones that created and used those tools, and ultimately actually got to the moon.

AI would make a fantastic filter for biased reporting, incorporating online trends, buzzwords and obvious subjective qualifiers would flag every MSM article pretty much

Exactly.
An AI is only as unbiased as the one in control of it.

Humans have been trying to replicate ourselves, duplicate a better version of ourselves, ever since we first started making tools. Look at how far we have come in just 50 years. 50 years. A little.over half an average human lifespan. I find it hard to believe some kind of near human intelligence AI will not happen in my life time just looking back at how far we have already come in such a short time.

dank meme AI

you should differentiate between types of AI

as someone who's been studying radio formats, I have to say 40 percent advertisement is pretty steep. The format for most programming, radio or TV, is 25 percent.

Also, you could possibly post videos to your patreon ad-free, or with reduced advertising

its not 40% though

its 14%

right now every video has an ad in the beginning

the promo videos replace google ads with direct ads from me

Only issue being that even Google's ads can be easily skipped 5 seconds in, unless the ad is really short.

youtube red's obnoxious ads a few years ago single handedly got me to install adblock

dont worry, i disable adblock for my favorite youtubers

unless youtube is on a "you have bug eyes" ad spree then i just throw my monitor across the room

anyone not paying attention to Qanon, what are you doing? https://qcodefag.github.io/ Together We Are Strong

what are you talking about?

btw @Timcast I love how your using your need for revinue to also make people aware of vpns. They are needed now more then ever in this growingly 1984 era

Also a huge fan, and im actually far right wing XD

🤔 VPNs are actually not that useful

basically useless if you are using a VPN for the internet unless you were trying to bypass geo-lock

They are a step in the right direction

wdym?

I mean that its a step in the direction to remove restrictions that its a method of gaining back a messure of freedom

and in this day and age even a step in the right direction feels like a leap

it doesn't remove any restrictions unless you are in a country that actually censors

like china

well alot of european nations censor these days as well as alot of the regional blocking on sites like youtube

YT's geo blocking still works if you are using a VPN iirc

same with amazon

I do conceed that its not an amazing step forward lol

I just think that awareness of options is good =p

it's not really a step forward though, it just mitigates full censorship

a step forward would be protocols and technologies that prevent both censorship and throttling

Which in this climate of increasing censorship is a step forward

Oh I whole heartedly agree

the US doesn't fully censor anything besides pedophiles and drug dealers

so idk what you mean

Websites are begining to censor

not really
