That makes it sound like a faith, rather than something that can be proven (or disproven)

Well that's what most people believe here

I'm in the 40% I didn't cite

@Reviire It’s not a faith. It’s called a belief.

I don't know when these statistics were taken

I do know Wikipedia and the Huffington post cites them

Except for it to be a belief, it would have to be something you can't prove, or at least, reasonably prove.

Well I disagree

I believe things fall when I drop them

I'm forced to believe reality

Evolution just happens to be part of that

@Reviire That is correct. Evolution has not yet been proven. Where is the missing link?

I wouldn't really call something that can be proven a belief, personally. Especially when it's so easy to get mixed up in faith. *Especially* something like gravity

Well, I'm not forced. But if I didn't believe it then I'm ignorant or dissonant

I don't know, I don't really read into it nor do I care

It's not something that has an impact on my life in any concievable way for me to want to learn about it

Well, Gwench, I have to get a shower, but I can debate about this later

@Reviire With that approach how can you even know if your life doesn’t get impacted?

It's 10pm here and I've got college tomorrow

@ShadyMasterJ talk to ya later.

Sure, without having a full understanding of it I might not know if it really will impact me, but from my current stand point, I don't see any sort of benefit it would give me.

It's got pretty much no relevance to the career I want to pursue

That’s a defeatist attitude. We cannot correct it fix what we don’t acknowledge.

Is it, though? Why would I learn about something I don't care about, that has no percieved benefit to what I want to do?

I don't intend to talk about it, because I don't have full confidence in my understanding of it.

What do you want to do?

I'm going to university to get a degree in Computer Science, so hopefully work as a software engineer.

Staying the fuck away from machine learning, never touching that no sir.

Lol. Good for you. I mean, why create Skynet?

AI waifus

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

AI is fucking BS

It serves only the people that design them.

That's a pretty good thing for you

If you design one

Also relevant image

😏

What am I looking at?

Why is it relevant?

Uh some weeb thing, I think it's like alexa
