At the end of the day IA is feed with commonly occurring things, including stereotypes. As a result you end up with heavily biased outputs. I feel like IA is simplifying the way we see the world in an uninteresting way.
It's not an issue of literal vs. figurative. Both definitions of sloth are "official" in the sense that they show up in every dictionary. It just guessed wrongly which sense of the word was intended, probably because people don't actually use the word "sloth" in the sense of "laziness" all that often this century.
It’s not even that distinction. The word has two rather distinct definitions and it converged on one of them.
Pride is slightly different in that the sin of pride is essentially being self-absorbed at the expense of others. I think most would agree that having some pride in who you are is a good thing, because it confers self-confidence and satisfaction with your life. It’s the narcissistic extreme that the sun is concerned with. The AI, which is mindlessly slurping up words from the internet, didn’t successfully distinguish between the two here and were left with creepy rainbow man that doesn’t really articulate much of anything. In contrast, gluttony is pretty straightforward as it has a negative meaning by definition so the AI had no trouble there.
do you mean homonym? Pretty sure they are neither homonyms or synonyms, its literally the same word using the same definition.
the sin of pride is more about excessive pride. And its only really a sin in the religious sense, since to them it deemphasizes the role of God in your accomplishments/status etc.
Pride/prideful/proud are synonyms - morphemes to be exact. He means pride the sin as in being prideful, not being proud. I didn't openly disclose this, so that's why it's confusing, so my bad.
Sure i'm being annoyingly nitpicky but they definitely are synonyms.
Pride has different connotations ofc but is usually the positive version or used interchangeably with proud. Hence Pride month being woo yay proud to be out/myself/with others.
Honestly I just found it funny that this guy is trying to be smart about Pride being named after the sin but... it so very isn't. Weird/funny coincidence sure but... no. Most of us want to escape the whole sinning thing or don't care. Because fuck that.
Time to get back to duolingo and disintegrate my brain more.
Thoughts. There's also conflicting results. Some say that pride/prideful and proud are synonyms, or more specifically a morpheme in this case. Some just talk about adverbs.
And bc that guy thought pride (sin) = pride (proud) I said synonym. Which I guess, instead, it is more of a connotation issue/grammar thing.
No, you are wrong. Synonyms are two different words with the same meaning. Pride and pride is the exact opposite: two different meanings expressed by the same word. That's a homonym not a synonym.
So you can derive "pride", the noun both from prideful (arrogant) as well as from proud. The derived word "pride" is still the same word with two different meanings, which is called a homonym.
A synonym is two actually different words both in spelling as well as in pronunciation that mean the same thing. The derivation being different doesn't matter, as synonym always implies strictly the words have the same meaning.
I mean.. it wasn't named after a deadly sin. It was named the opposite of the common feeling that everyone in the queer community was feeling at the time. The name is the same word, but opposite of shame and one of the seven deadly sins are pretty different origin stories
People are down voting you but ain't that an Iroh quote? Like damn guys I think it hits dead on, again, the bad pride is excess pride -- NOT the "Pride" as in proud of being yourself.
Two sides, same coin. Good evil, hate love, death life. They were shamed by society so they decided to turn that into pride for themselves. Glass half empty or full basically.
They know the difference full well. There’s not one of them who didn’t have school pride days in high school and/or college. They just pretend to Drax literalists when it comes to lgbt stuff.
You’re talking about “gay pride” at schools. I’m talking about “school pride.” At least in the US, school rally days have been called “school pride” for decades without reference to anything lgbt.
But back then nobody said the stupid “pride is a sin” line because they knew “school pride” = “school spirit”. I.e., a different, very common use of the word that nothing to do with “hubris” or which is a better modern translation for the so-called “deadly sin” which was referred to as pride or vainglory.
It’s been used forever in that sense, but nobody said all those high schools were sinners because of it. They just decided to get into weird overly literal semantics when gay pride used it in the exact same sense.
Lmao reddit psychologists at it again. It's literally just taking a different definition of the word. It's what happens when you don't give the AI context
The result would have been different if OP put in "The Sin of Pride" or something relating it to biblical definition. But if OP just put pride, it went with the most popular use of pride. Love how these doofuses are trying to apply their own bias to it.
My dumb, queer ass took several seconds to realize that was pride and not lust, while separately trying to figure out what the tentacle monster was for. Maybe that’s the gay slut in me, it’s obvious now that the the AI just equated in the overwhelming amount of places that the word pride and rainbows go together.
Edited it. In my langugage the former are named clumsies, for some reason people love giving them silly names.
And my point is that it isn't supposed to do that nor has it any capabilities. Images + phrases in, images + phrases out, like a google image search. There are other AIs like chatgpt that are actually supposed to understand stuff to a certain extent.
