I just saw a video of an AI executive saying that people will connect their brains to the cloud so they can have 1,000 times more thoughts.

@Artists_Ali There's three other creatures in my head already, we have enough thoughts, thank you very much

@Artists_Ali
It will be like frying your brain.

[variaxocellus@mastorol.es]

@Artists_Ali Oh yes pour shitposts directly to my neurons three orders of magnitude faster than they operate normally. I don't see how that could cause any downsides whatsoever!

[lydiaschoch@mastodon.social]

@reiddragon @Artists_Ali I concur with this explanation.

[lydiaschoch@mastodon.social]

@Artists_Ali @AngelaPreston we should send all of our excessive thoughts to that executive. They can handle my anxiety for a few years.

[dziadekmick@mstdn.social]

@Artists_Ali

So, he thinks that thoughts can be created outside the brain. They can't. AI doesn't think, it calculates and it produces data. More bullshit from the fantasists trying to make us buy more AI.

@Artists_Ali I'm not ADHD and I have 2 or 3 thoughts at a time... It's really annoying.

[quinn@social.circl.lu]

@stefanie @Artists_Ali oh yeah. I have EDS too.

@mysturji @Artists_Ali Wasn't Lucy also dying from cooking her brain from the inside out? I don't remember or really care.

[stefanie@social.anoxinon.de]

@quinn @Artists_Ali I do know CPTSD and I know I have it, but not officially diagnosed, thank god.
And I get depressive episodes, pretty severe ones sometimes.
EDS is the thing with the hyper mobile joints?

[momo@social.linux.pizza]

@Artists_Ali
Absolutely! AuDHD here. You don't want this, it will harm you. It harms us every day and you can't see that: That is our day to day life from the day we were born to the day we die.

You do not want that for you!

[momo@social.linux.pizza]

@Artists_Ali
Wanna hear an example? My best friend committed suicide and when I learned about it my brain went into overdrive. When was the point in the process where death was the unavoidable result of his action. How long was he alive after that (7.8 seconds in his case). How does it feel to hit the ground and die? How does it feel to change your mind but can't change the result for the last 7.8 seconds of your life?

This though spiral comes automatically. It's one of the 1000 thoughs in my head. I have to actively suppress them for 12 years now. If not, I will fall into despair and another depression.

When I say you do not want this, I mean stuff like this. Because you have no direct control over this.

@Artists_Ali Zach Weinersmith tried to warn people, but they're gonna build the Torment Nexus regardless…

@Artists_Ali @JoscelynTransient so it's somehow expected? I had an opportunity few times when someone shared weed with me and it was so noticeable difference. Suddenly all chaotic, often stress and anxiety related thoughts stopped. I was able to... just relax? Sit peacefully without worrying.

Few years ago I realized how much "debuff" this always busy mind is, when I want to learn meditation. Like my starting point is worse than average.
And I don't even have ADHD, I am just very nervous, permanently scared about anything since forever and always in that grey zone before depression.

[_a1m4_@mastodon.social]

@Artists_Ali As someone who went through a difficult period of anxiety and rumination, i completely agree...

[mopsman@social.vivaldi.net]

@Artists_Ali I love that advice and will share it with pleasure

[anniebuddy@thecanadian.social]

@Artists_Ali

He’s marketing this to the thoughts and prayers people. Those who are so mindless they can’t think of anything else to say when they’re faced with yet another tragedy.

[inverseatascii@techhub.social]

@Artists_Ali hard pass here

[quinn@social.circl.lu]

@stefanie @Artists_Ali why not get a diagnosis? It generally comes with suggestions and treatments.

[quinn@social.circl.lu]

@stefanie @Artists_Ali and yeah, EDS is the your collagen sucks disease.
