These models can’t write satisfyingly/convincingly enough yet.
But they will.
I float through physical thoughts. I stare down the abyss of organic dreams.

You know, Costco exists in Europe as well, with the same food order menu.
Porn fakes are old news, yes - but what the post you replied to is talking about is “deep learning” (remember that, before the great deluge of “AI”?) fakes, which to some extent either uses generative networks to swap out or alter the face/body, or straight up generate simulacra graphics/video, as opposed to a human doing for the most part comparatively bad hack jobs with multiple sources as in the past.
Four of the most prolific serial killers were based in south American countries like Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Venezuela, Brazil etc.
After those, it’s India, China, Pakistan, former Soviet states, Russia and so on.
Hardly first world countries, and especially not when these killings took place.
Those killers’ body counts eclipse all American killers’ by a very significant margin.
Gary Ridgway (the Green River Killer) is the most prominent American serial killer by a mile, but he’s not that “famous” even though he was arrested and convicted rather recently (about 20 years ago).
He is an uninteresting person who is rather stupid, doesn’t do interviews and doesn’t revel in his infamy like the more famous serial killers do or did. He’s almost more akin to a rabid animal as far as public perception goes.
Furthermore, the decline of serial killers, even with more interest and attention than ever, I think is largely attributed to better social safety nets.
As it turns out, it seems that in at least some cases, socialistic policies work surprisingly well.
A huge point of legalizing is to take away a large percentage of gangs’ income by making legitimate businesses replace their supply chain over time.
Obviously criminals are still going to be deep in that as well, especially since they already have a lot of the supply already in place, but people are more inclined to work with police if they aren’t at risk for being hassled by them for their drug use and/or business with said drugs.
It’s basically death by a thousand cuts (over time) for criminal enterprises.
Also, if there’s no reason to be scared of the cops or the justice system (that’s rich!), you’re also more likely to cooperate with police if your legitimate drug business is being squeezed or compromised by criminals.
This should’ve already happened, of course, because now the problem really is the amount of money criminals have made off of the illegal drug trade, rivaling many nations. That money is being laundered and injected into legitimate businesses and investments, solidifying criminals’ leverage over the economy.
As said by others; see a physician, then a psychiatrist (in that order).
Auditory pseudo-hallucinations may be completely benign, especially if you’ve partaken in psychedelic substances recent or long since past, but they may also be an early warning sign of (like you said) potential pressure on the brain or abnormality in brain functioning.
And even that might be fine.
Either way, why gamble? Go see a doctor.
I’m Swedish… A rich small country.
I didn’t realize you were talking global median income, since it was not defined.
I don’t know how great of a barometer for economics a luxury goods/service like a AAA video game is, though.
Man, things are a LOT worse in the US than the media makes you believe if the median income is $2600 a year.
If you like Biosphere and you haven’t heard him, Loscil is wonderdully minimalistic dub ambient very focused on “cold” granular synths with tastefully meanderingly monotone progression.
It’s kind of the same deal as with tobacco. How do you account for the cocktail effect of nicotine, MAOIs and other terpenes etc?
Psychoactive substances and their pharmacology are a lot more complicated than they appear.
Sheesh, apparently it’s 340 eur ordered from Sweden. I mean, I’m sure it’s great, but that’s an insanely steep price.
I hope you find good use for it!
