when i see daily rape news from india i feel nothing but when i crime news from japan i rage, why?
>>
>>50320356
when you see ants kill another insect do you feel anything?
>>
actually reported per capita rates are much lower than most western nations because of underreporting so your premise is false and a setup for the yous
>>
>>50320387
its not a setup my heart bleeds for junko furuta but i dont feel anything else that type of crime happens in india every single day
>>
it is a setup because you are implying there are proportionally many more reported cases and that isn't true
>>
>>50320409
no i literally dont feel anything when ANY crime happens in india regardless of how often it truly occurs but i rage when ANY crimes happens in japan even if its something insignificant
>>
wouldnt report rape as a woman honestly
the rape itself is maybe 15 minutes of slight discomfort
but going to the police and reporing it is 4+ hours of discomfort minimum
>>
now that's a pivot and doesn't change the factuality of your initial setup

not my setup i was merely commenting on the matter

every time you hear one of these confident "predictions" you should ask them to bet money

in the end you'll be a multi millionaire and half of 4channers will be broke and the other half exposed

>>50321246
The counter-argument that "regulation will halt exponential growth" relies on the assumption that AI development is a centralized, controllable process like building nuclear power plants.

Current data suggests this is incorrect. AI development is behaving more like **software piracy** or **cryptocurrency**—decentralized, globally fluid, and technically resistant to top-down control.

Here is a debunking of the "Regulation Halt" thesis based on three "Failure Mechanisms":

### 1. The "Prisoner’s Dilemma" (Geopolitical Failure)
Regulation only works if *everyone* agrees to pause simultaneously. In a geopolitical arms race, this is a strategic impossibility.
* **The Dynamics:** If the U.S. pauses AI development for safety, it risks ceding dominance to China. If China pauses, it risks U.S. hegemony. This creates a **Prisoner’s Dilemma** where the rational move for both sides is to accelerate, regardless of the risks.
* **Evidence:**
* **NSCAI Report:** The U.S. National Security Commission on AI explicitly concluded that the U.S. "must win the AI competition" against China to preserve democratic values, effectively ruling out any unilateral slowdown.
* **Sovereign AI:** Nations like **Saudi Arabia** ($100B+ AI fund), **UAE**, and **France** are actively funding "Sovereign AI" clouds to ensure they aren't dependent on U.S. regulation. They view AI as a national security asset, not just a consumer product.



### 2. Regulatory Arbitrage (Economic Failure)
Capital and talent are liquid. If one jurisdiction imposes strict rules (like the EU's AI Act), development simply moves to a "pro-innovation" jurisdiction.
* **"AI Havens":** We are already seeing the emergence of jurisdictions competing to be regulatory havens.
* **Japan:** Has declared a "machine learning paradise" approach where copyright laws notably *do not apply* to AI training data, explicitly inviting companies to train there.
* **Singapore & UAE:** Have established "sandbox" environments with loose enforcement to attract top talent and compute infrastructure.
* **The Outcome:** Regulation doesn't stop the growth; it just redistributes the GDP. The exponential curve continues, just on a different continent.

### 3. The "Cat is Out of the Bag" (Technical Failure)
The most devastating counter-argument is that **inference** (running AI) has decoupled from **training** (creating AI).
* **Open Weights are Forever:** Once a model like **Llama 3** or **DeepSeek** is released, its "weights" (the file that constitutes its brain) are distributed via BitTorrent. They cannot be "un-released."
* **Quantization & Consumer Hardware:** Techniques like **4-bit quantization** compress massive models so they can run on consumer MacBooks or gaming PCs (NVIDIA RTX 4090s).
* *Result:* You no longer need a regulated $1B data center to run super-intelligence. You can run it in a basement, completely off-grid. Regulation cannot police millions of local hard drives.
* **Smuggling:** Even hardware bans fail. Despite strict U.S. export controls on NVIDIA H100 chips, a thriving black market exists in Shenzhen where these chips are bought, sold, and even repaired.

### Summary: The "Water Balloon" Effect
Attempting to halt exponential software growth with regulation is like squeezing a water balloon. You don't stop the expansion; you just force it to bulge out somewhere else—whether that's into the black market, into open-source networks, or into rival nations.

**The Verdict:** Regulation will likely **shape** the trajectory (forcing companies to be more secretive or move HQs), but it lacks the global coordination and technical enforceability to **halt** the underlying exponential trend.

Some days I skip Anki and feel like shit for doing so, but it's only because I'm too busy immersing myself (and usually reviewing while doing so anyway, finding a word that I just learned via Anki the prior day) so I know it's pretty much a wash and what I'm supposed to be doing anyway. But it feels so bad seeing my review count double the next day as a result. I just need to train my mind to not fucking care. I'm learning anyway, it's fine. If I spend all day grinding a VN and looking up every word I don't know/reviewing words I'm not confident in then I'm essentially fucking doing Anki anyway just not in the app.

youre on the right track and honestly you dont need to think too hard when doing reviews

>>50320673
What's wrong with this? This is exactly what I do when looking up words. If there are kanji I'm unfamiliar with in it, I'll look up other words that use that kanji and normally find one that I've learned before but was on the edge of my mind. And that helps solidify the original target word, or at least form an association I can tag with so when I bump into 離婚 I can go ちょっと待って・・・これ結婚」の「婚」だろう?そして・・・離す?・・・ and look up 離 to confirm, finding out that it's also in 離脱 which I learned prior but forgot since it's not as common, and then it all fits together. And then I proceed to plug it into immersion kit to listen to it in a bunch of different examples to get a baseline for it. This looks like it's just a more streamlined version of that...though I do think there's a point where things get a bit too comfortable and frictionless, and the lack of that extra effort makes it less likely to stick. It's why I avoid copying and pasting words or using text hooks - I'd rather write the word down on my iPad dictionary app so it requires me to actually process the kanji and translate it into muscle memory as well.

CAREFUL. I LEARNED "SKEWER" MEANS A FOOD STICK. BUT UPON FURTHER LEARNING OF ENGLISH, I LEARNED IT ALSO MEANS TO IMPALE SOMETHING FULLY. THAT'S WHY YOU SHOULD NEVER LEARN WORDS USING WORDS. ONLY LEARN WORDS FROM THE ETHER.

Just got off the phone with my wife's boyfriend who's a Google engineer. I asked him what he thought about Gemini's ability to translate Japanese, and he proceeded to play a live translation of my wife in the bed through Gemini. Not going to lie anikitachi...the future is very abunai. It sounded exactly like one of my ero VN lolis and I don't think we will ever have a reason to learn this language at this point.

I'm still not convinced Japanese isn't some sort of cruel prank at this point in regards to its difficulty level.

It's just difficult, but I haven't studied in many years so my brain isnt in good form.

-Download the kaishi deck, add the audio to the front too
-dont learn the reading, just the meaning
>being watch Comprehensible Japanese(watch each video twice and an extra one as audio only)
https://cijapanese.com/ (THE HOLY GRAIL OF Comprehensible Input)
And no, you dont need to learn grammar
You should be able to understand 75%-80% of some content after a couple of months. EZ
and if you care about piss accent/pronunciation

Why not learn the reading for the card? I've been trying to learn the reading + meaning but i had to cap it at 5 per day
>>
>>50322479
>Why not learn the reading for the card?
If you immediately recall the meaning of the word the moment a Japanese person says it, then memorizing the reading (or pronunciation) is unnecessary. if that make sense

I'm learning from Genki and just got to lesson 3, the part about 'u verbs' was confusing and rather odd, so i took a look at Kims guide and it seemed more-well structured(overall too) but than i found this video explaining the RU-U verbs as Ichidan and Godan which made a whole lot more sense than both Genki and Kims. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qMAjTVzaHA4
Should i ignore the RU-U shown in genki\Kims ? And is genki a good book? Its structure seems all over the place, the exercises are mostly 'pair up with your class! this is funfunfun!' While i do feel i'm progressing okay, this RU-U thing, and Kims warning(about how some books try to teach english-japanese) made me worry this is some wierd autism book. Anyway is genki good or autismo? Does it really matter? Should I swap it for Kim's?

dont learn grammar, you are permacrippleding yourself
just feel, unironically
>>
Feel like need more excerises to feel
And a nice steady challenge curve
>>
>>50322554
I'm on ch3 like you but i've stopped doing textbook work atm. My thoughts are that atm its more effective to have lots of immersion/input and building vocab through Anki. I think when i do more textbook work ill treat it more like i did at school, stop focusing on perfection and just kinda fly through it by feel.
If we are learning by listening first, grammar rules may not help as much as spoken language is more colloquial anyway.
It may be more effective when i begin reading

I was utterly embarrassed by my last tutor session. I did not study and thus had a humiliating performance in front of the tutor.

Guess what? Now when she corrected me, the correction stuck that much harder. And you bet Im studying super hard this time. Humiliation is something you can only have via tutor. You cant be embarrassed by studying on your own or talking to an AI. Which is crucial to the learning experience. When kids learn, embarrassment is part of the learning process. Trying to recall phrases/words, and seeing social rejection when you apply them incorrectly. Its all part of the process.
This is why I say a tutor is crucial.

Also forgot to add onto this, this is also why I suggest a female tutor. And this may be controversial—a female tutor you find attractive. This compounds the embarrassment factor when you mess up. Aswell as awaken that hidden masculine urge to not fuck up and impress the cute girl. You will be using your masculine urges in your favor to directly learn Japanese by doing this.

>>50322607
I'm kind of on board with you, feels like need way more vocab, but other than anki the vocab needs to be a part of something, a reading practice, which there isn't enough. Found the work book to be nice to get that feeling where the brain shoots electricity but it feels like it's hitting a wall/is blocked. Otherwise everything just feels like a marshmallow and retention is at 30%

game gengos the real deal and knows what hes talking about so thats why his explanation ended up making the most sense to you
genkis alright but the way it teaches you is by trying to avoid all the hard parts of the language upfront and get you speaking right away (often glossing over more difficult concepts in a short paragraph or two at the bottom)
theres nothing inherently wrong with its teaching method but it was designed for a classroom and at the end of the day its really more of a glorified phrase book meant for businessmen/tourists
there is no 100% best method to learn since the point of all these resources is to get you to a place where you can teach yourself the rest
also dont worry about accidentally learning "english-japanese" either thats just the natural jumping-off point that everyone faces when they leave the controlled environment of a classroom and step into the deep end of real conversation

hey dont blame me he asked
>>
>>50322823
Game Gengo’s rigorous analysis likely proved superior to Genki’s classroom-centric Communicative Language Teaching model—which often relies on formulaic sequences for immediate utility—but since the ultimate pedagogical goal is learner autonomy, you need not fear the transient L1 interference inevitable when bridging the gap between scaffolded instruction and authentic discourse.

The text in the image provides a functional but linguistically incomplete overview of the nominative case marker. While stating that ga marks the subject is syntactically correct, it fails to distinguish the grammatical subject from the discourse topic (marked by wa), which is the primary source of confusion for learners. This definition implies a one-to-one correlation with English subjects, ignoring that Japanese sentence structures often separate the topic from the acting subject.

Furthermore, the explanation omits the particle's usage with stative predicates and potential verbs. In constructions expressing ability, desire, or preference (such as suki or wakarimasu), ga marks the argument that English speakers formally classify as the direct object, causing significant interference for beginners relying on this simplified definition. The text also vaguely groups "emphasis" without explicitly defining exhaustive listing (or exclusive focus), where the particle specifies "X and only X" performed the action, which is distinct from a neutral description of an observed event.
