Parenting hits different when your intelligence is artificial
Me: “Why dont you come visit and talk to me in the nursing home?”
My kids: “just talk to grok”
I’m sure there is a good few older people who would find a lot of comfort in Groks world view.

Parenting hits really different when you’re an idiot and a sociopath.
Alvin there doesn’t want to bother talking to his child.
That’s not true. My father was a terrible parent and that was decades ago. Tech Bros. think they invented bad parenting now.
What’s not true?
This dude clearly thinks he invented bad parenting.
Interesting take. Why do you think so?
Clearly they’re a bad parent, but I don’t see any claims of originality in there whatsoever.
That poor kid, Imagine your own father thinks so little of you that he would rather spend 10X the time to train a clanker just so he doesn’t have to spend time with you.
I’m guessing some day he will be one of those oblivious assholes on facebook whining because his kids cut off contact.
I know this is about the AI but the unaddressed elephant in the room is that people romanticize the idea of having children and realizing it’s not what they expected or really wanted. Society constantly puts pressure on people having kids.
I know people who would die to have children so they can see them become successful well adjusted adults. Those people can have kids.
I also know people who dont want to have kids. They dont have to.
I also also know people who really want kids, but in the way a person would want a dog, so they can train it to be good, hit it when its bad, and itll never be older than 3 years because they havent thought that far ahead. These people should be sterilized.
Hah yeah I agree on the last statement. That’s why I have such a negative outlook on the subject. Once you fill out CPS reports, you start to have more negative outlooks such as maybe there should be a license to have kids.
people romanticize the idea of having children and realizing it’s not what they expected
dude…so much this.
I had zero romantic thoughts of having kids. I didn’t even want them, honestly. my wife and literally everyone around us on the other hand, very much so wanted us to have kids.
don’t judge though. as a current parent I don’t ignore my responsibilities and fully intend on giving my kids the best I can. at least, a better more loving home than I had.
but man, life would be so much easier without them. I literally could be on a beach somewhere in the world right now if I didn’t have kids. have lunch in Paris. then stop by in Denmark for some dinner.
by the time they can stand on their own I’ll be dead. so now I can only save money in hopes to help soften any financial hardships they will need to endure.
I’ve been playing around with the idea of recording some “dad’s wisdom” videos for them when they get older and I’m not around.
The video idea sounds pretty good.
I went separate ways with my ex-fiancee over this topic. It wasn’t so much as I was against having kids, I had conditions such as financial stability and owning a home. And deep down I didn’t want to take care of two people and be financially responsible for everything, my ex-fiancee already had a hard time holding down a job.
But like you said, even now that I have my own place, I’m more motivated to travel than get into that lifestyle. I’m sure I would have been a decent parent having worked in education but the tradeoffs are too steep for me.

I have a few friends who use OpenAI and Gemini to do this (generate new stories every night) and I do not understand why you would do so. There are a bazillion kids books out there. Just get ten of those and your kid will be happy for ten months!
Ten? They’ll fixate on one that’ll you’ll need to read so often that you don’t need the actual book anymore
This is ragebait. Right? People can’t possibly be that shitty…
I said this the other day, it’s a story. Regardless of whether or not it’s ragebait it has a kernel of truth existing inside a story. Could this have happened, sure. Is it an objective truth? Most definitely not.
I almost thought this was Clammy “Raped My Sister” Sammy’s AI podcast post that Alex Hirsch of Gravity Falls fame responded to with “or you could just talk to your kids”.
So will the divorce bud.
She should train a not-divorced-woman model
Driving a car requires a test and licensing. Somehow, raising a child doesn’t require something similar.
These people are becoming parodies now. Im convinced they are trolling us
Fucking loser.
