idk, “throw the woodchipper into the woodchipper and see if it produces results with predictive value” seems reasonable to try! obviously if it doesn’t work you should then say that it didn’t work, but like. sometimes tools that you personally find distasteful can still make useful predictions.
would you save a child knowing you would be late to work because of it
we would be really bad at drowning children then I feel like that’s counter productive
you may be written up
listen i am sorry i want androids to be real as much as the next autistic nerd but every single thing i’ve seen has suggested the modern field of artificial intelligence is completely fucking flawed from first principles and the only evidence that the field can produce is using stuff from that field
“Stop floating up! Stop floating up, goddaman it!”
but the analysis is “wow we put the woodchipper into the woodchipper and this proves that the woodchipper works”
I think it’s wild to value your job more than children
maybe it’s just me but I don’t think any company wants to be known as the company that fired soemone for saving a child
yes fucking obviously i’m not a ghoul
I can see it
the scp foundation is a brutal brutal workplace
GHOUL?

we should go back to more fun dilemmas
oh, so now we’re not doing what our field intellectually suggests we have to do because it’s hard, so we should instead use the first thing we came up with in the hopes that it’s as good as all the fraudsters say it is
okay litten get in the box
The ethics committee would like a moment of your time.
I feel with this line if you didn’t save a child while recording it (demonstrable proof) then they will think you’re lying about it.
Losing my job because I didn’t record me saving lives! Not clickbait! 9 PM!
We are the ones who balance the moral costs of everything the Foundation does. And in order to balance those costs, we must know those costs. Do you realize what that means, Doctor? It means that we know everything the Foundation does, has done, and will ever do . Everything that has ever been redacted or expunged, we know it. Every last detail. Every time you been late to work has been noted, and we can’t agree with you saving that child.
