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.

@stefanie @Artists_Ali you're best off in community ️

@Artists_Ali As a mostly neurotypical person who cares a whole lot about and spends much time with a person with an ADHD brain, even i can see that more thoughts is just exhausting.

@quinn @Artists_Ali I believe you. And I wish I could say I know. But I never found a community where I felt accepted, let alone welcome.
Other than the open workshop I've been going to recently. Maybe I finally found a place.

Just as our government is about to force me to leave the country. Loneliness is the one consequence of cptsd that I'm unable to overcome. 46 years, not a single real relationship, 1 friend left.

You is a goose?

@stefanie @Artists_Ali the trick that has worked for me was finding ways to be of service to others, Volunteering in whatever way possible, giving time and work and help as much as possible, being reliable and available. It's not instantaneous, but it's what makes a life work, and what makes bonds with others. And if you can't stand people, there's aways animal shelters

[stefanie@social.anoxinon.de]

@quinn @Artists_Ali That's exactly what I'm doing at the open workshop. Offering help whenever I can, trying to be the best version of me I can be.
And it seems to be working. I've already been invited to a birthday party next weekend.
I'm a little worried that something might trigger my dysregulation and I might not catch it early enough to escape without causing social damage.
But that's a risk I have to take.

@Artists_Ali

This made me scream inside, amidst the rest of my thoughts.

@Artists_Ali@sunny.garden The only "cloud" I wanna connect my brain to is the shapeless eldritch monstrosity outside of euclidean space.

[joshua@hooray.computer]

@RobotDiver @Artists_Ali my brain is already an overcrowded zoo, why in the gods’ name would I ever want my brain to do More Thoughts

[artists_ali@sunny.garden]

I did not know it was possible to go this viral on Mastodon. ‍️

[forestine@sunny.garden]

@Artists_Ali my biggest post was also about ai lol

[artists_ali@sunny.garden]

@forestine No surprise it would be unpopular here

[zaphodb@twitter.resolvt.net]

@Artists_Ali I especially do not want 1000 more thoughts at AI API latencies. Its annoying enough to watch via CLI already, actually having to wait for your thoughts to come back sounds absolutely terrifying to me.

[mmezabet@craftgoblin.club]

@Artists_Ali Anything involving ADHD will get massive boost, too, lol

[me@social.jlamothe.net]

@isaackuo @Artists_Ali 1000 × 0 is still 0

[hsza@social.tudbut.de]

@Artists_Ali AI executives do not understand thinking more =/= thinking better. …that kinda sums up the craze, actually

[thomasjwebb@mastodon.social]

@Artists_Ali indeed I wish I could donate my extra thoughts to thoughtless people

[miawinter@mastoart.social]

@Artists_Ali as an adhd

Yes, you really really don't

[kc@social.coop]

@Artists_Ali no no, let them have the intrusive thoughts of that embarrassing thing they did at age 8 and the sudden interest on landmark bridges in Uzbekistan at 3h in the morning

[flup@mastodon.scot]

@Artists_Ali If computers started learning from the inside of my head, they’d craft an elaborate emergency stop button before smacking it as hard as it could.
