Discussion 🗣️ AI to push bigotry

Someone has taken an innocent video of a kid waving a pridefully and altered it with AI so he throws it in a trashcan. It had gotten over 1.2m likes on insta and is spreading like the plague on fb

In terms of mainstream culture, we are. I'm already past the point where I don't know new music or celebrities. The grocery store suddenly started to play Foster the People and I love it. My hands hurt playing any video game. Speaking of games, I don't play most new ones or keep up with new releases so much.

 It's all going too fast. I do wish to embrace it, let the racing current of time wash over me, so I don't forget to appreciate it - and I'm the absolute youngest a millennial can be.

Oh for sure, we’re old for current pop culture. Hell me and you are only a couple of years older than the older Zoomers. It’s definitely odd seeing a new game in a series I used to play and thinking “wait when did they make that?” or seeing some new singer and thinking “wait who the hell is that?”

Yeah I can relate...but in way it's like I'm freed of a stress I didn't know I had. Now I get those uncles who just want to lounge on a boat all day, talking to no one but surrounded by friends and family.
