Exactly. We need a perfect (or at least much fairer) world before we add AI to it. What AI should do is turn us all in to Spartans. No, not a laconic warrior caste, but the actual Spartans - a people of leisure and culture who got to enjoy their lives and take up artistic and entertainment pursuits whilst the unfortunate slave caste did all the graft. If we can mechanise all of our needs so that people are free to live lives of leisure pursuing recreational activities and being happy and fulfilled then yeah great, bring on the ai. But what will actually happen is that the billionaire ruling class will realise that they can plug in AI, get rid of the cost of labour and leave the workforce largely unemployed whilst they hoard all the benefits and savings for themselves. We've already seen this happen to an extent with the dawn of robotics in manufacturing and whilst I'm all for progress and efficency speeding up our means of manufacture, if it comes at the cost of millions of people being out of work then that's a societal problem we have to fix. We're at a major cross roads globally where capitalism is hitting breaking point and the younger generations are starting to slowly wake up and get seriously fvcked off with how unfair the world is. The gap between the wealthiest and the average Joe now for Gen Z as they come of age is drastically, unimaginably bigger than it was when the Boomers hit their early 20s. It's gotten way out of hand. If we don't fix that before AI really gains momentum then Gen Alpha won't have a workforce to enter by the time they're done with their education and I don't think that's overly melodramatic. Forget all the Skynet paranoia and the silly sci-fi rubbish about robot takeovers, as ever, the biggest problem will just be people and greed.

I love you man.

These are above England in the table right?

Extras - 9 might end up top scoring with a few more.

Succinct as ever man.

Wtf

In fairness, he's played both McAteer and Fatawu on both the left and the right. I think Mavididi might be the only one we've not seen swap sides which makes sense given all their respective skill sets.

No but Mavididi is quicker and both are better at one on ones and probably both better at tying up a full back. I'd obviously back McAteer to finish over Fatawu if there's space in behind for him to ghost in to though. I imagine we'll start Mavididi and Fatawu and bring Kacey off the bench if he's fit to be in the squad.

He's looked about 45 since his late twenties tbf

Fvck me Paolo Guerrero still out there winning trophies. Mental.

Only if Daggers agrees to make a reaction video to my reaction video.

Funny I've had quite a lot of BR on this week. Was literally listening to Suffer when I opened this thread. Gray Race not my favourite but a solid album.

Fair

Turkish and Serbian social media in particular is... something else

My missus has an unfortunate tiktok addiction and I swear 90% of it is all this garbage. I really don't get it. I'll admit to getting a bit fixated scrolling reddit sometimes and that's quite bad. But tiktok is pure brain rot.

WHY!?!?

The septics disprove your theory though don't they. They're massive gob shites on and offline.

Literally coming to say this. I've always been very pro technology. I'm for VAR in concept but it's been absolutely butchered by PGMOL, the FA, The Premier League and everyone else with a finger in the pie. It needs to be fixed and made fit for purpose before it's rolled out elsewhere.

Infantino Out.

The scenes when Vesty loses the ball in a position like that though JJ gonna need all his wheels.

"Reaction" content. Although maybe I should put "content" in quote marks too. I swear 90% of YouTube and social media now is just clips of extremely unfunny chavs and Americans recording themselves watching or playing actual artist's content, having staged as fvck over reactions and just posting it. Why is this funny or interesting? Who wants to watch this narcissistic, main character syndrome rubbish? Why is it so succesful? It's probably the worst trend to stick around this long.

Yes, out of 21. With like 70% possession or something. We absolutely battered them and just couldn't finish that's the point.

This right here is the sort of person that usually wants to be a mod. This is what the poor admins have got support.
