there is something I fear more than death

This is a form of backdoor bigotry from both normative facts (there are more straight than gay relationships) and well represented bigoted beliefs (men are superior to women).

“I don’t like…” no one asked go complain in dms

Left is MY FIC, right is the ACTUAL BOOK QUOTE IT WAS INSPIRED BY

It has been doing numbers EVERYWHERE and I only found out from this lovely person who commented on Ao3:

1. The court holds Google responsible for statements made by its AI, considering them Google's statements (search engines have limited liability for results in their engine as they're the words of other sites/companies/people), meaning when their AI lies/hallucinates they're liable for the defamation/harm resulting from those statements.

2. Google's defense that customers are generally aware of the lack of reliability and are responsible for fact checking was dismissed. As the court pointed out, that would "significantly diminish" AI Search's stated purpose and it can't be distinguished from Google's business practices/statements as a search tool.

3. Studies have found about 91% of Google's everyday AI responses are accurate, leaving millions of searches per HOUR with potential liability for falsehoods. 56% of correct responses weren't supported by the sources the AI listed. Both of which mean Google is now liable for a LOT more AI "errors."

4. Google was held liable for 80% of court costs in this case and this precedent is expected to reverberate around the world. This is a massive shift from the 3rd-party search provider role Google has previously played and it comes right as they've tied ALL searches to their AI search.

Useful info. Thank you @kyriosblaze!

Here is a post with useful tips for formatting bug reports.

Setting a reward for work isn't an instant fix, it's practice for setting goals and reaching them and rewarding yourself for that patience. The goal of pretending there are consequences like the mentioned gun isn't "start truly believing you are going to be shot", it's "practice feeling like there will be important consequences on tasks that you would usually not feel consequences for and put off". The closest one to a trick is the clock changing one, and even that is more a management strategy than anything else, because yeah, you know the clock is wrong, but you're being asked to act like it's right to manage punctuality.

I hate how this is framed like a gotcha to the therapist as if she's never met anyone else in her line of work that struggles with impulsivity or focus issues or whatever. If your therapist says "oh" to this kind of comment it's because she's just realized you have no idea what therapy is actually for (learning techniques that can help you manage the issues you struggle with) and have no desire to actually work on solving the problem.

I'm sorry to everyone who lives on the entire continent.
