If you could push a button that gives you a hundred thousand dollars but a random person dies, would you do it?

Interesting thought experiment… intuitively, I’d say no, but it’s worth thinking about… it’s a genuine moral dilemma in a capitalist world: there’s a dialectic between our desires and the common good…

MEANWHILE, BILLIONAIRES

    You managed to create the most disturbing non-ai foot I’ve seen today, so that’s nice

    Love the comics!

      AIs have become decent at anatomy these days, haven’t they?

        ‘They’ have not. They cannot learn and have no skills.

        They have competent artist content fed into the massive pile of numbers they compute output with, though, so they can output things that look like competently drawn feet.
