Title: In a world I can't identify with
Post by: STEMO on 01 January 2024, 23:09:16
Just read three news stories, you could probably find them yourself if you wanted to.

1) Lawmakers are being urged to look at the rules regarding radicalisation after it emerged that some chatbots, freely available to all, are advocating jihad. No one can be charged under current laws because there is no human involved.
2) In the first case of its kind, police are investigating a virtual gang rape. A girl under 16 was held down and raped by multiple people while visiting a virtual reality site. These are so immersive that she is suffering in the same way as if she was physically raped.
3) Maybe not so weird, but....An Asian American women has won a payout after she gave birth to two white babies from two different women after a cock up at a fertility clinic.

I'm glad I'm old ☹️

Surely, in the case of item 2, she just removes the headset?  ???

Shush you!

This is 2024, there's no space for that kind of practical no nonsense thinking anymore.  ::)

Have you forgotten that commonsense no longer exists with the majority of people aged under 40 ?
