  1. Simple any content not created by a human. I'm saying that the script and the voice over is AI. Was there quoted material in the script? If so, I would not trust it unless it came from a reputable source, and "Mr. Noah's Stories" is not a reputable source. Anytime you see the word "Destroys" in a YouTube video, do yourself a favor and just ignore it.
  2. Interesting conversation The books @Delano recommended may be purchased by clicking the covers below:
  3. AI is a great tool and if used for good will dramatically raise productivity and make it possible for all of us to enjoy as HIGH basic income. But again, I doubt that will happen Elon and his ilk will begin trillionaires (literally) and the rest of us will be struggling, blaming immigrants and the woke mob.
  4. Possibly, it will make things far more difficult as the technology improves. The guy Suge hit with his car died?
  5. Kid is hit by a car, is crippled but does not die. Folks will say divine intervention saved their life... ignoring the fact that the kid was crippled by a car. Anything can be justified.
  6. I know someone whose image was used in AI video promoting a wide variety of scams without their permission. There are dozens of videos. So far each of them has gotten FAR more engagement than anything they have posted themselves thanks to the social media platforms were the videos were posted. The videos are very convincing -- I know the person very well, so I know they are bogus. The videos are shared with her friends some of whom will be dupped. Because Google is putting AL generated content (content created by websites like AALBC) on their search engine results page, in addition their ads, and their own content people are visiting websites less often. My traffic from Google search queries is down 60%. This by itself is the end of the WWW wide web as we know it. Seriously, say goodbye. YouTube is already overrun by AI generated content. Google does not care because they can serve more advertising and people just like the scandalous and salacious content. I thought social media was bad, but AI will certainly kill the WWW. The main problem is that the wealth generated from all of this will go into the hands of a few people. It is hard to believe but wealth inequality will actually get worse! Black people will remain clueless because we simply don't have any platforms large enough, with the inclination, to cover any of this tragic situation.
  7. That is technically true, but white racism and it's legacy renders that statement absurd, ludicrous.
  8. That "video" with Crockett and Jeffries is AI generated I did not watch the others, but I suspect they were AI generated as well. The WWW is becoming a cesspool.
  9. As the good @ProfD says Skip knows his path to prosperity DHTPHTG. Absolutely. But no one should have been surprised.
  10. Every human came from Africa. When the European arrived in Mexico that destroyed the Aztec civilization, besides the Aztec civilization predated the Bubonic plague by at least 100 years. Same for Incan and the Maya which is MUCH older. If any people impacted these civilizations they were African, as described by Dr. Van Setima.
  11. We agree on something else @Pioneer1. People can conjure patterns in and reasons for any event they want for all the reasons you mentioned and more. @Chevdove reply illustrates my point perfectly. Of course not. History tells us that so called Black people were the pinnacle of civilization for MOST of our history. The last four hundred years, the primarily period, we are taught in school, ignored our history.
  12. The only problem @Chevdove, and it is a big one: humans are not horses our genetics are different. There are hundreds of breeds of horses while the concept of breed does not apply to human. Differences of hair and skin colors of horses of the same breed that does not alter their breed. Let me know when you get a chance to share the information from Stanford regarding different human races. Also, all humans Homo sapiens, Homo neanderthalensis, and Denisovans are all from Africa evolving long after the continent we know today formed.
  13. I don't think anything special it up. Just another day on the big blue marble.
  14. Vaccines are more dangerous than the disease they have indicated. No, of course not. No. that would violate the meaning of the term No. Do you? Maybe we should stop taking vaccines. There would be far fewer humans alive today and the world would probably be a better place for the ones remaining.
  15. I'll let you speculate as to why I do this, as you can probably figure it out. It is like asking why I build a site dedicated to books about Black people. AKA Y Chromosomal Adam. There is indeed one man from whom all of humanity is descended, and yes, he is from Africa. Calling them "Black" is as problematic as it is today. You mean like the Neanderthals? They too are descendant from Africa -- all humans are descendant from Africa. I'll wait to read what you cite from Stanford in your research before commenting on the rest.
  16. …and Trump is the culmination of our hubris and greed.
  17. You are welcome @Chevdove. Yeah, the planet was here long before humans and will almost certainly be here long after we have gone extinct. A relative "blip" on the Earth's biosphere. Humanity is largely responsible for a loss of about 50% of all the biomatter on Earth since in the last century -- that is a pheromonal stat. It seems like every living creature would be better off without the presence of humans. As far as I can tell, we do nothing to benefit the plaent's ecology.
  18. (1) This statement is true. In fields like sociology race is recognized as a social construct and determines in some cultures how people relate to each other. (2) This statement is true. There is no "race" gene. There can easily be more genetic variation within a so-called race that there is between two different ones. The problem for some is that they view the world in Black or white (literally). They take the social construct and believe that it must be founded in our genes. They can't hold statements (1) and (2) being true at the same time. This is unfortunate as it stunts their ability to understand the world and the people in it.
  19. For real. Are pimps, street gangs, crack houses the scourge they once were? I'm in NYC right now. The biggest problem I've seen was walking down 34th street having to literarily stepover bums laying down in the middle to the sidewalk and on every available bench.
  20. I assume this is because he will likely be sent to prison. How long has he been locked up anyway?
  21. Like observing at election? yes, it is so much better for the film if all this speculation continues to fly around. What amazes me is the time and effort people are putting into these videos to explain some aspect of the film. There are 40 minute YouTube videos to explain something that took 30 seconds in the film. It’s crazy. People are getting too deep for themselves. You can see all kind of crazy things if you look hard enough. I mean Ryan cougar must have been a genius to build all these Easter eggs and double meanings, symbology, all known forms spirituality people have conjured up, and make an entertaining film on top of that.
  22. You think empathy is in his repertoire?
  23. That statement has Dunning-Kruger Effect written all over it. Do you mean as in an inherited trait. Okay what does THAT tell you? Here you go again. You have cherry pick something that supports your argument while summarily rejecting the rest of the article which conflicts with your statement. Are you unable to grasp what was written or are you deliberately ignoring what was written? You tell me to research something. I pull something from the encyclopedia, and you tell me that you are still right and that you know more than what is in the encyclopedia. You double down by claiming access to knowledge that I as non-frat do not have access to -- you are too much man LOL!
  24. I wouldn't call myself a "victim" but I and my ancestors have been victimized in this country by racists. I use the word Black not as a physical descriptor but as a way to describe a broad group of people (some of whom you would call white) who have been victimized by defacto and dejure white racism. Sadly, is has been a global phenomenon for several centuries and it effects Africans on the continent and throughout the diaspora. "Black" is the American term for this group of people. You need to get out more if you think Black people in American are largely one Ethnicity. I'll give you a minute to think about that more deeply. If you have not changed your mind (unlikely) then you can come at me again if you like.
  25. @Pioneer1 What does the shape of one's nose, or the texture of their hair you about a person? Please don't answer with a question of create a strawman just tell me what you learn about the individual. Gender tells you a whole lot about that person. While the color of shape of their lips do not. Well, I created this forum more than 25 years ago. Do you think the same way today, as you did 25 years ago? When I was much younger, I shared many of the same thoughts about race that you espouse now, so I get where you are coming from. What confounds me is when you are presented with information that contradicts what you believe, it does not change your thinking at all. Just today when I presented information from the encyclopedia refuting a statement you made about the caste system you flat out rejected it, rather than trying to understand and learn from it. This is disappointing to me.
