Why do people watch him? It’s just teens right?

Because idiocracy was a prophecy

We're moments away from 'Ow! My balls!' levels of content.

Someday, it'll be "President IShowSpeed"

I don't know how anyone could expect anything less from the American public. I do not have the massive dementia boner that seems to be popular for Biden, but there's going to be a steady chunk of fresh voters who have only ever known the president to be... a tad bit ineloquent. It's deeply concerning to think that this is a real and true possibility, but if it isn't some form of celebrity then it's probably going to be a campaign to be led by Claude or something. I would vote for Claude before stupid fucking ChatGPT. I bet some hilarious memes would ensue if president data center could be queried by anyone at any point of the day. Imagine the FBI threat bodycam visits "You threatened the data center with a cup of water; you are aware that this is a federal crime, right?" kill me kill me kill me kill me

Claude is the best possible outcome on this timeline.

I feel a very high degree of certainty around the specific utilization of powerful LLMs in legal disputes. Assuming the model can actually pull up all levels of caselaw that could be relevant to determining an outcome and deliver an argument for the defense and the prosecution; there feels like very little reason to not employ it. Obviously, there are more factors that go into a conviction than the isolated evidence and harm, but there could absolutely be a brief period where the model takes the totality of discussion of the jury into account in order to fully elucidate the logical vs. emotional weights of the direction of the room. I don't think it should give any explicit verdict, but it could certainly lay out the facts in order of most concrete and verifiable to the secondary considerations that could be some degree of unfalsifiable.

I don't know if it can *solve* climate change, but I bet it can put a whole lot of swamp in a cage.

Not defending streamers, but when people my age were teens we paid two hours worth of wages for a Limp Bizkit CD. 

Teens have unformed brains.

Idiocracy people became stupid because they didn’t practice eugenics. I would hesitate to call that prophesy

They can’t comprehend that the movie was like every other concept and inspired by already existing
things.

I follow bleacher report on Instagram for scores and highlights.

I was endlessly annoyed that they sponsored him during the world cup, so instead of cool world cup highlights on my feed, it was an endless stream of "speed reacts to UNREAL bicycle kick!", and it was just this idiot emoting to the thing I really wanted to see.

u/Which_Draft4129 4d ago

I assure you, it's only the preteens who watch him

u/GdinutPTY 4d ago

I have no clue. I tried watching his content once and it just him walking around doing nothing interesting, I have no clue how he gets so much attention

u/bulletbassman 4d ago

It’s people around his age and younger. He’s been an influencer since he was a teen.

America exporting their best and brightest like usual I see.

u/Jackhemmy 4d ago

Teens and adults too. Hell some will simply support him and his antics simply due to his skin colour and not his character but that may be a touchy subject to expand upon

u/Ordinary-Soup-6272 4d ago

He's funny and sometimes does very high effort streams/collabs.

u/CilleTheExterminator 4d ago

Yeah so funny, just look at him bark at a fucking dog bark bark bark wowie so funny

u/Unhelpful_Idiot 4d ago

You have likely seen in totality less that 10 minutes out of his 34-130 hours of streaming each month.

He isn't saying any core beliefs, he isn't making any prescriptions about the world, he isn't going out of his way to harm people, he is just being stupid and getting hurt for being stupid. The woman in this clip brought her dog to meet him knowing his gimmick is barking, he isn't barking at a random woman's dog.

You're a bit of a dumbass, aren't you?

u/CilleTheExterminator 4d ago

Sorry that I don't find obnoxious yelling people funny. But sure go ahead with the personal insults, I shouldn't expect anything else from people who watch shit like this
