  • which it turned out belonged to James […] whose number appears on his company website.

    When Smethurst challenged that, it admitted: “You’re right,” and said it may have been “mistakenly pulled from a database”.

    but the overreach of taking an incorrect number from some database it has access to is particularly worrying.

    I really love this new style of journalism where they bash the AI for hallucinating and making clear mistakes, to then take anything it says about itself at face value.

    It’s a number on a public website. The guy googled it right after and found it. Its simply in the training data, there is nothing “terrifying” about this imo.







  • Very interesting. I’ve never had anything paranormal happen to me but I like to believe in it and it’s always fun hearing accounts like these. I imagine it is a bit stressful having nightmares haha.

    I would write them somewhere more public (like a blog) or with witnesses. If something that could never ever be a coincidence and becomes public knowledge happens (like a major disaster), people will doubt you wrote about it before hand. I’m sure proving yourself isn’t something you really care about, but every event that becomes accepted helps others come forward and removes some of the stigma imo.

    I googled it and the three comics seem kind of terrible.

    Not everyone finds MS Paint to be the most pleasing form to look at in any case. Really, it’s a bit much to see the constant witch hunt, you literally spam your 2 word reply just to start a fight. It’s just calculated negativity and gatekeeping.

    I think you are making huge assumptions with the “not caring about the audience” segment.






  • The study I linked seems to include both self stimulated erections and erections due to injection. They also limit themselves to clinical measurements. They mention self measured results but point out that they are unreliable, as you said. They do point out however that there might be a difference between self stimulation and an erection with a partner.

    But all in all, there isn’t a barrier because of the ethics involved in touching a penis and masturbation.
