These types of things always cut off too soon. If this person is serious, I'm really interested in what they think chickens are.

Correct, but also all birds are dinosaurs. Not all dinosaurs are birds. Birds are to dinosaurs as squares are to rectangles.

[–] Nutteman@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Now we are comparing apples to oranges. Birds and dinosaurs are shapes, yes, but they in NO WAY resemble squares or rectangles. In fact, you'd be hard-pressed to find a single right angle on those puppies. Not that they are puppies. Wait. Are they puppies?

My name is not Stick

If it continued, the next line would be something like "thanks for helping me bro. I got the screenshot. I'm going to get so many reddit points from this!"

Meat, fish and chickens

[–] ReptilianCleric@lemmy.zip 30 points 1 week ago (5 children)

Birds aren't real, everyone knows that.

[–] pelespirit@sh.itjust.works 10 points 1 week ago

That's because they're dinosaurs and dinosaurs aren't real anymore.

They USED to be real, but then the government killed them all off and quietly replaced them with drones.

That's literally what covid was, they needed people away from public spaces so they could upgrade the drones.

They charge by sitting on power lines, why else would they do that when everyone knows power lines give you 5g cancer.

I can't laugh at this kind of thing anymore because it just makes me think about how so many people sincerely, aggressively, believe nonsense

[–] SmoothLiquidation@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I have been fooled too many times by what I thought were over-the-top satire communities that turned out to be all too real. Flat earthers and even when the first communities celebrating trump came out come to mind.

[–] Geth@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 week ago

Yeah this type of satire has lost all meaning and amusement when we realized there are many people taking this shit seriously and they have voting rights.

[–] MrVilliam@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 week ago

You think they fly South for the winter? What, for warmth? No, sheeple, they're flying to El Salvador to their docks to charge and offload their surveillance data. Did you think it was a coincidence that those cameras are called Flock?

[–] Meron35@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

I can't laugh at this joke anymore because its founder resurrected the Enron brand started shilling an Enron crypto currency.

Birds aren’t real, and neither is the Enron relaunch - Sherwood News - https://sherwood.news/crypto/behind-the-weird-enron-relaunch/

This is a very telling preview of what will be the gen of youth that uses AI for everything.

Not to say that the education system wasn't broken already (and it was), but their reliance on AI to solve problems instead of using some bit of critical thinking to try and solve it is just plain bad.

[–] kkj@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 1 week ago

This sounds like Luddite nonsense, but there's actual research that strongly suggests that Gen Alpha is the first generation in recent history (if not recorded history) to be less intellectually capable than its parents. We finally beat the Flynn Effect and all it took was $10 trillion and destroying the planet.

[–] Scipitie@lemmy.dbzer0.com -4 points 1 week ago

If that's the base level you're actually making a case FOR handing the education system to AI.

I managed to trigger some bad halluzinations but I couldn't pull it off (in a few min to be fair) to even trick my local stupid model into "chickens are mammals" (went this route because reframing is easier for tiny models than negation)

[–] CPMSP@midwest.social 15 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Make no mistake, chickens are dinosaurs.

[–] Zink@programming.dev 3 points 1 week ago

Indeed. If I may quote my own comment from a couple weeks ago:

I have watched the simulated running of various dinosaur species in documentaries such as Jurassic Park.

I have also watched my chickens excitedly run around my back yard.

There is nothing you can say that will convince me birds are not literally dinosaurs.

~~Plato bursts into the room, holding an unplucked chicken.
"Behold, a bird!"~~

Apparently someone else beat me to it.

[–] AccoSpoot1@lemmy.world 9 points 1 week ago

Behold! Plato's... erm... what?

[–] Codpiece@feddit.uk 6 points 1 week ago

Black holes are now the second densest things we know of.

[–] pocopene@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago

Awkward meme with penguins in 3, 2, 1...

[–] nialv7@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago

yes, asuka. chickens are birds.

[–] Ganbat@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 1 week ago

I wonder why they protected their account...

[–] KingThrillgore@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 week ago

Except sharks.

We all become crabs, in time.

But how?

Well, generally, they're born that way.

I love the overconfidence of the emoji. Use it back.
