        You think there are mental health problems now? The more AI takes people's jobs, the worse mental health problems we'll see.

            The Indian in the cupboard? But I don’t remember if he was a toy or not.

              The great water wars opened up a lot of jobs. I was a blood bag for a while, good dental plan but worked outdoors way too often.

                There’s also Child’s Play. Honestly it’s an entire trope.

                Finally, a subject I know about! I have watched a lot of really bad movies over the years. Many of them included that particular trope.

                Demonic Toys. Puppet Master (sort of). M3gan. Annabelle (I guess, I didn't see this one on moral grounds). Dolls. One of the Krampus movies. If you're willing to stretch your meaning of the word toy there's also The Hug. The Goosebumps TV show had a puppet. Loads of others.

                    I stand by the fact that it's a bad movie and that I love it. And the majority of the sequels. And the Demonic Toys crossover movie.

                    If you don't believe it's a bad movie then all I have to say is that I support your right to feel that way.

                      prediction: right wing hysteria claiming the chatgpt toys are turning the kids gay/trans and/or the actual cause of school shootings.

                            My buddy searched for a specific horror movie for years that he only saw a piece of when he was a kid. I watched a bunch as a teen, then we were in the Navy together he hosted bad movie day where a bunch of us would get together and watch 3 or 4 depending on the length of the movies. Worst movie that week won. 90% or more were horror.

                            Those were good times. He introduced me to Troma, The Granny, a bunch of movies with evil toys, weird shit you can't tell people you watched without them looking at you like you might be a murderer, Killer Klown and tomatoes, and nearly every off brand slasher the 80s had to offer. I've kept watching ever since.

                            And I have no idea if he found out what the movie was. He hadn't by the time we stopped doing movie day.

                                  It's loosely based on the lies of grifters Ed and Lorraine Warren. I have a strong aversion to anything dealing with them.

                                  To be fair, I watched The Conjuring before I knew about their connection and didn't like it. It wasn't my style and I can't imagine the other films in that universe are either. And I don't judge others for not caring that they were involved, especially since they're both dead now.

                                    Oh shit, AI is evolving by natural selection. There's a feedback loop of how people interact and training the data.

                                      It's just another money/power grab. Tech bros want to spy on your kids to train their mythical AGI God, make shit loads of money and be in a position of influence.

                                      Take away people's economic independence. Take their intellectual capital. Take their capacity to learn and think independently and ultimately their capacity to play and imagine.

                                      The sheep are being led towards a very fucking grim world.

                                      Lets be clear it isn't the tech that is bad. Self hosting a model for a task that suits it like speech recognition for a disabled person is righteous and liberating.

                                      I hate to agree with the Marxists of Lemmy but the problem is very much capitalism as it is with global warming, pollution and a social inequality. Where I will split with them historically is I still believe in liberal democracies capacity to regulate capitalism for a common good. But when everyone has outsourced their thinking to a corporate AI from birth to death democracy is fucked isn't it.

                                      We need to be aware of how we are being fucked over, sceptical of people pushing this shit and engaged politically to make sure it is regulated appropriately otherwise these cashed up AI fuckers are going to write legislation for our politicians to rubber stamp.

                                        It took decades for the computer revolution to become the personal computer revolution and businesses could adapt workflows and build out new ways to spend their R&D money (remember this was all back when stock buybacks were illegal, so companies were still investing in themselves) to fill the headcounts. It's taken mere months for generative AI to upend businesses and schools, destroying entire professions. I do not see the two as being highly comparable.
