You’ll have the flexibility to work as much or as little as you choose - 20hrs/week is suggested, but not a limit. Start working in as little as 48 hours. Your final hourly rate will be chosen by Outlier AI and determined by your location.lmao no fuck offffffffff
@aud some business people are going to use it until a court makes them stop
@hipsterelectron@circumstances.run "We see you have spent the entire past month working 160 hours! Wow! When we combine that with the ethnicity and gender of your name, some data we bought from a data broker, and certain skull measurements, our Outlier AI model tells us that why, you're lucky to even work! You're welcome for the experience!"
@aud "certain" skull measurements because everyone knows some of them aren't worth shit. we stay up to date with leading skull scientists to get you the best of the best top tier eugenics
@hipsterelectron@circumstances.run I still can't fucking believe (yes I can) that they just... actually try this shit

hilariously, a search for "phrenology" in the yields nothing. Strange.
@aud amazed that they actually got it retracted maybe there is some hope of resistance
@hipsterelectron@circumstances.run only because other researchers had to take the time to target it, basically: http://arxiv.org/pdf/2006.03895
@aud @hipsterelectron seems like a good use of time to take that horse shit down tho.
@cthos@mastodon.cthos.dev @hipsterelectron@circumstances.run Oh, I mean, definitely, I agree, like obviously they're trying to push it and it would have worked. But it's obviously bullshit they had to. I feel like if you accept "phrenology but with a computer" you should not get to be a journal anymore because what the fuck is even the point of you being a gatekeeper if you can't keep the goddamned debunked science out?
We _already_ have this problem
Much easier to generate bullshit than to refute it; it's 2nd law of thermodynamics all the way down
@trochee @hipsterelectron @aud @cthos We need to affirm the shortcuts we have to reject bullshit. You don't fact-check it. You treat it as automatically invalid by provenance: the identities or lack thereof of the people promoting it.
Incompetent liberal centrism treats this as a logical fallacy. It's not. It's fundamental to how you deal with asymmetry.
