(East) Asians are the most accepted race aside from white people. Not that racism against them doesn’t exist, but it seems that white people naturally gravitate towards them compared to other races

AO3 has a section for original fiction

If the content includes the Disney Vault that’d be very cool

What about more social games like Fortnite or Roblox?

Do you have any access to any professionals such as a therapist or social worker? You can ask for a more personalized advice from them. It’s hard to tell you how to cope with loneliness without knowing the specifics.

Why do you feel that you are eternally lonely? How old are you? What do you do for a living? Do you have any health issues that are preventing you from leaving the house?

Try connecting with academics. Just met an artist who’s a professor at a university and even though I’m not of the same educational level as her, we had a very nice chat.

Being neurodivergent does that to you

TechCrunch: this is nightmare fuel

engadget: it’s so cute :)

This was mentioned in the Discussion part of their paper:

The activity of facial muscles involved in forming expressions such as smiles is closely linked to the development of wrinkles. One significant next step in this research is to leverage this model to enhance our understanding of the mechanisms underlying wrinkle formation. Moreover, applying this knowledge to recreate such expressions on a chip could find applications in the cosmetics industry and the orthopedic surgery industry. Additionally, this study performed actuation on a dermis equivalent by controlling mechanical actuators positioned beneath the dermis equivalent. Substituting this mechanical actuator with cultured muscle tissue presents an intriguing prospect in the realization of a higher degree of biomimetics. Examining the correlation between facial muscle contractions and resulting facial expression can offer insights into the physiological aspects of emotion, leading to new exploration in the treatment of diseases, such as facial paralysis surgery.

This is true in the art industry as well. Many outsourced artists from third world countries are exploited with unreasonable wages and long hours

I think that would be online spaces in general where anything that goes against the grain gets shooed away by the zeitgeist of the specific space. I wish there were more places where we can all put criticism into account, generative AI included. Even r/aiwars, where it’s supposed to be a place for discussion about both the good and bad of AI, can come across as incredibly one-sided at times.

Is this just some media manipulation to give a bad name on AI by connecting them with Nazis despite that it’s not just them benefiting from AI?

Is there an open-source version of this? I already have a mechanical keyboard

First of all, I agree with many of the commenters that you should ask a professional for help. There could be some free sources in your area, but we can’t help you further without knowing additional details. Many professionals do pro bono.

I also noticed your interest in AI companions given a previous thread you made, which can be a sensitive topic. I want to emphasize that AI companions should be approached with caution, especially for individuals who may be vulnerable like yourself. However, if you’re genuinely interested in exploring this, you could consider programming an AI companion with the goal of helping you achieve happiness. Through interactions with the AI, you may gain a deeper understanding of yourself and your needs. I advise against proprietary AI apps since they will prey on your vulnerability, not to mention that you may not have the money to keep subscribing in the first place. I would also suggest that you use an AI companion in conjunction with therapy sessions. Use your therapist’s guidance to inform your interactions with the AI, which can help you gradually open up to new opportunities.

Usually a (competent) doctor knows you physically through examinations. It’s very personalized so I can see the justification

Based on the discussion that I’ve seen, it looks like the “Anti-AI” motive was an excuse since all the hack was doing was to steal API keys and potentially sell them. Here’s a discussion thread on reddit that goes into this more.

On the iPhone you can use Assistive Access which makes your phone display very simple and limiting the use of a few selected apps. But Brick is pretty cool if you want a physical manifestation of that

And now they’re asking for donations. I don’t know how that’ll work out, though
