  • Doesn't solve a problem

  • Recording everything around you is fucking creepy

I mean at some stage you have to start wondering about the sort of person with a less-than-one-week-old account that's up in here defending them so vociferously. I notice you're also in other AI threads on Lemmy being equally shilly.

Nice gate keeping attempt.

The only community I am subscribed to at the moment is this one. Maybe that’s why? Like you said, I’m just new.

I’m a tech enthusiast. I love the bleeding edge of tech. I don’t look at a new tech product through the cynical lens that you clearly do. I look at it with an open mind about what it could do and what it could become. Like I said in another comment, people had these same “creep” comments and opinions about cameras on phones, but that thankfully didn’t slow down their adoption and innovation.

Do you just accuse everyone you disagree with of being a “shill”? You have to wonder about what type of person jumps straight to that.

I've invented a machine that turns my shit into tooth paste. It's the bleeding edge of technology. I'm sure you'll be excited to try it!

Ok and I’m looking at that tech through a lens of what it can do and what it can become. Does it completely get rid of all of the germs and bad stuff? Does the toothpaste have the same properties as regular toothpaste? If it does all of that, why wouldn’t you be interested in exploring it?

That would be a completely revolutionary product that could change the world. It could provide better dental hygiene for the entire world.

LMAO, Or I could have overhyped my product and now your brushing your teeth with my literal shit. Your naivety is adorable, though.

But it wouldn’t hold up to the least amount of scrutiny in that case, and not a single person would ever brush their teeth with it.

It’s like you can’t understand what is being said here.

It's like you're a child who thinks every new technology is useful.

It’s like you’re a child who can’t comprehend basic sentences.

Eat my shit-paste.
