Say what you like about those old bigots in the plantation era, but they were smart enough not to give their own overseers any sort of privileged status over them themselves. The current brand of bigots, keep on giving their own overseers total power, even over their own class. Welp, I guess they are gonna learn. And…

White boys mad they are being treated the way they demand not white people be treated and are somehow mad. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

This looks like the perfect tool for spreading managed democracy.

Wait wait wait. Hold up a minute. This thing was originally supposed to go for a top end of $5k. The original article Giz did on this said the robot cost between $2700-3500 depending on how it was configured and the flamethrower itself was only $700-900.

The perfect tool for eliminating Cicadas.

You’re racist

Why the skepticism and condescension in this article? You don’t have to be right wing to see that it’s weird for the AI to describe any white person as offensive. Or to create images of Native American Greek philosophers. Even if you don’t see a problem with ignoring the fact that white people exist, it’s a huge…

When I asked it to generate an image of a white woman, the chatbot sent me a notice that said: “While I understand your request, I’m hesitant to generate images solely based on someone’s race or ethnicity.” I asked it to generate an image of a Japanese woman, it replied “Sure”

There’s no such thing as reverse racism.  It’s just racism.

You can’t really compare anything she’s done before being the president Lucasfilm to what she’s produced since. Right now, she’s the main input and output of anything Star Wars. For all the other examples you gave, she was only one of many people, with a very different kind of influence on the end product each time.

I wonder if Carano and Shapiro think those two words rhyme?

Yet this site name is Kotaku. If there is a sense of irony about “appropriation” being ignored here... *shrugged*

jfc...

I agree with the classic cyberpunk tropes and orientalism especially with the hats (“Get it? These are Asian robots...”), but I’m not so sure the developers had an obligation to explain the history. Sounds like the choice for the location was very much inspired from the perspective of a cat. It’s also a fictional…

Awwww, I want a heat dome.

Good.

Well how are the scientific community supposed to “reckon” with ill-informed nitwits exercising their G_d-given rights as Amerikans to shoot their mouths off about whatever stupid they’re fixated on today?

I thought we figured this out a long time ago.

I’m only an intermittent watcher of the show, but for some reason, when I think Kate McKinnon, I think someone who’s been there a long time, while Kyle Mooney still seems like a (relatively) recent addition.  Oh, well.  All three are huge talents and will be missed.  

Oh, he stopped and thought.  It’s calculated.  Dude’s trying to be the figurehead of a loose agglomeration of friendless 4Chan dorks, so he has to keep making a spectacle of himself with puerile “hot takes” like this.
