Finally white supremacy feelings for everybody without a bad consciousness …
with the usual threats
We have a social need right now to respond to the proliferation of AI, especially when AI is taking human jobs, especially when they’re replacing online creators," Aleksic said.
and promises
In Dorr’s view, which he describes as optimistic, this creates a chance for a world in which humans will be free from toil.
Why not do something new?
We already have “clankers” thanks to Clone Wars. What more do we need?
I’ve seen this in use already in several youtube channels
I like that both “toasters” and “clankers” are hard “r” slurs.
Chiphead is a good one if klanker isn’t enough
I think we should have different ones for different brands… Tesla bots can be Jerry’s since he’s Musk is a Nazi.
The idea that we can create a “slur” for an inanimate object is the result of corporate propaganda.
Marketing teams would attempt to use propaganda to humanize this auto correct software before admitting it can’t do what they said it could.
Why does BJs still have those stupid robots riding around the store? It was cute the first month but now they just trigger my anxiety.
Tinnies
Too much like titties
In the Manual it says you can whip your clankers as hard as you want. If they don’t malfunction within 3 hours then it’s all covered under warranty!
Silis (pronounced “sillies”)
Like silicon.
I miss the 70s flair. Can we have Slop-O-Matic 3000 at least?
Didn’t we agree over 20 years ago on “toaster”?
So say we all.
Toaster is good. We’ve used that for years and it’s memed hard. Its origin is toward AI and physical robots. Even though it’s a slur based on the first model Cylon having a toaster face, it implies robots are simple and they generate ridiculous amounts of heat to do a simple task.
We don’t need to reinvent the wheel here just because someone had a viral video on TikTok. Clanker sounds so dumb too. Especially for protocol bots that have no moving parts beyond data centre fans and pumps.
this guy knows what he’s frackin’ talking about.
Toaster. You put bread in, you push a button, you get toast out.
Simple. Stupid. Cheap machine. Capable of doing one thing well.
It’s a great insult.
Your toasters do it well? Mine required trial an error to determine what number it should be set to, and the result is uneven.
You should be happy. Mine does a different thing every time, no matter the setting…
What is my purpose ?
when I first saw this reply, it was only a few minutes old and I think or I hope I was the 2nd or 3rd upvote on it. Now its the most popular comment on this and I am glad to have been in consensus on it.
Toasters is the best phrase for this
In FNV DLC, a certain Toaster would toast you for this comment.
Technically Star Wars coined it as a slur way the fuck back in one of the prequels. Shit ain’t even from 2025.
KOLANAKI
We all grew up wanting to be like Obi-Wan. Maybe a little too much.
Didn’t we agree on clanker recently?
Oof with the hard r and all huh
This is gonna haunt me one day, just wait.
You can’t say that! That’s our word!
Doubt any one of them is going to stick.
