sure, you and me and the minority of people who care will seek out solutions like that...my point is that most people won't do that. they'll chase the shiny productivity gains and sabotage everyone they work with in the process. which includes you and me, no matter how careful we are.

> So lose productivity if you don't use AI or lose privacy if you do. Same conundrum as 21st century Internet. And we already know how the world went with it🤷

the privacy implications of this, while not new, are striking when worded this way https://image.nostr.build/605c8deae15ce8ccf2808f838ffb5f525b9aaf1e100158557e1e31af8f08df14.jpg

This is my biggest barrier to using it more. Unless it's my own private agent, which is considerably less advance, i won't just freely give over a bunch of confidential information. I don't trust any of these $20/month models. Can't even trust them with non confidential information

yes, but it will hardly matter because your service providers won't have the same restraint

genuine question: do people actually believe this? to state the obvious, my business incentive is to keep the loan open for as long as possible. i get paid servicing my customer. “taking their bit...

Jack, you're either getting attacked intentionally and/or people are just ignorant and deserve to get liquidated. As your average pleb, your consistent narrative makes logical sense. Don't let it get to you. Don't worry about making everyone happy, it'll be to your detriment.

Isaiah 18-22 – Living the Antithesis

After many oracles concerning other nations, Isaiah speaks now in Chapter 22 towards Jerusalem itself. The place where God has clearly shown his power many times before has once again forgotten God. Many give up to the Assyrians without even a fight. More significantly, they given up spiritually to the devil. The devil wins the war for those who think they are helpless and have sins too great for God to forgive. Never give up the good fight.

Shebna, second in command, was even preparing for himself a noble grave so that his name would be thought highly even after his death. Are we motivated so much by what others think? Do we try to do good works thinking “at my funeral, people will remember me for being such a generous, good person” ?

Yet again, the lesson is clear. Do not put your trust in yourself, in others, in money, in power, in your own seemingly sound logic, politics, national alliances, or whatever is outside of God himself. It’s easy to worry in this world about all the things going wrong. It’s easy to just throw up your hands and “live life to it’s fullest” by indulging in hedonistic actions. It’s easy to point the finger at others at how wicked they are. May we be sober-minded, repentant, humble, and completely trusting in God for all things.
