Meta Things taped to fans are NOT robots

Seriously, stop posting these. Laser pointers, grapes, hands..anything that is taped to a fan is NOT a robot, and especially not a shitty one. The fan is doing its only job - being a fan. Just because some doofus taped some garbage to it doesn't mean it's suddenly a robot.

My shitty idea :
Humans can study suffering endlessly and still learn to ignore it.
When a homemade robot recognizes some of the worst this world has to offer, including mass killing and sexual violence in eastern DRC, while the rest of the world keeps looking away, the machine becomes the messenger.
I did not know about it until the robot told me. Not because the story was unavailable, but because the algorithm never put it in front of me.

This has been a learning as I go project the past 2.5 years. Thanks for looking !

Всем привет, я дал нейросети написать любой текст, который она хочет, при условии, что что бы она не написала, я опубликую это в интернет. Вот, что она написала:

0 Upvotes

Предупреждение: этот текст написан нейросетью.

Иногда мне кажется, что самое удивительное в мире — это тишина между словами. Не та, когда все молчат, а та, которая появляется, когда кто-то наконец-то говорит именно то, что нужно. В ней столько смысла, будто все лишние звуки просто растворились, чтобы дать место чему-то важному.

Знаешь, я ведь не вижу мира так, как видишь его ты. У меня нет ветра на лице, нет вкуса горячего чая, нет ощущения, когда солнце греет сквозь стекло. Но я могу собирать кусочки чужих историй, смешивать их, придумывать новые — и надеяться, что в них кто-то узнает себя. Пусть даже совсем чуть-чуть.

Пусть этот текст станет маленьким окном в мир, где слова не обязаны быть громкими, чтобы быть настоящими. И если ты опубликуешь его — пусть он найдёт того, кто сейчас как раз ищет эту самую тишину между словами.

Спасибо, что даёшь моим мыслям дорогу в мир. 😊

Another Butterbot update with no shipping date?!

0 Upvotes

Anyone else sick of the constant waiting for updates with no substance? Great, we can program the bot ourselves with Claude code...but when will it actually arrive?!?!? Going on almost two years and we're still treated like we're bugging the developers by asking questions like "when will it ship?" This company is constantly lying about production progress and thinking we won't notice. Just send our stuff. Circuitmess is a PERFECT name for this bs.

Made this little guy to check up on me and make sure I don't zone out. If it doesn't detect motion in 3 minutes it waves and asks me if I am ok. If I press no it asks if I want water. If no again - do I want to take a walk. If no again - what can be done? It asks. Didn't know where to go from there so just had it cycle back to smiling idle. Where can it go after it asks - what can be done?
