Dude, what is it with so many like researchers or scientist just automatically default assuming that we are the only species or family that has certain neurological things before any sort of study or basis?
Like they thought different creature didn’t feel pain and blah blah blah didn’t feel pain, and it’s like, come on. That’s a basic biological response.
Why wouldn’t we default assume that there’s some underlying pattern or similarity?






That is a really good idea. I’m not gonna lie. I would love it if I could put like five bucks in a wallet and then it just takes a cent or two when I go to some article rather than having to fight through some local news site trying to get me to pay $9.99 a month to read one piece of rage bait. I’ll pay a nickel or maybe even a dime for a good one.
I know they’re targeting AI agents, but it is only a matter of time. I say roll it out to consumers dude and I know that sounds fucked up, but like I would much rather just pay a nickel or a dime here and there than have ads making it impossible to even read the article. The people will compete on price and I bet it will stay really small for most stuff. It gets creators paid in a similar model to YouTube clicks or Spotify streams, but in a much more direct and equitable way. Google, AI has to pay for the content instead of just handing it over.
