Jesus, that Amon example is unbelievably accurate

They immediately started funding him so he could crank things up. This also happens all the time. They thought the same thing about cryptocurrency. They put all their weight behind it. Telling us it was magic and would solve all of our problems. Remember that? But that ended up being a dead end.

What kind of projects do you recommend doing with Claude and when do you do them just by yourself?

Important context here: when Peter Thiel and David Sacks began their war on diversity as undergrads at Stanford, thirty years ago, the very first tactic they adopted was to normalize slurs that had already been stigmatized out of mainstream society. This return of these hateful terms was a key goal.

ah, consumer genAI GIS seems to be going great

Meet the AI workers who tell their friends and family to stay away from AI When the people making AI seem trustworthy are the ones who trust it the least, it shows that incentives for speed are overtaking safety, experts say

“AI workers said they distrust the models they work on because of a consistent emphasis on rapid turnaround time at the expense of quality.”

It's time to burn AI to ash now. So there's nothing left!

The way eating something with a good amount of protein in it ANNIHILATES my morning headaches really is relieving

I saw an interview with an air traffic controller who is driving Uber on the side so his family can eat since they're about to gt their first zero dollar pay stub and that's exactly you want in one of the most stressful jobs on earth: staff that's even more stressed, sleep deprived and hungry

“The CDC, which tracks human cases, & the Dept of Agriculture, which monitors animal outbreaks, have both suspended routine communication with states, leaving many officials without up-to-date guidance on how to detect & contain the disease, or a clear national picture of the surge.”🧪🛟

Some ant architects design a colony to cut the risk of disease. Humans, take note! One kind of tiny ant can serve as a monumental example for how to keep members of a community safe from pathogens. A new study shows how they do it.

Even ants are better at public health than Americans. 🧪 www.npr.org/sections/goa...

AI Bait & Switch:

bait: we’re gonna make an AI that can solve any problem experts could solve. it’s gonna transform the whole world.

switch: what we have actually made is fun and amazing, but rarely reliable and often makes mistakes – but ordinary people makes mistakes, too. So … AGI solved!

How AI and Wikipedia have sent vulnerable languages into a doom spiral Machine translators have made it easier than ever to create error-plagued Wikipedia articles in obscure languages. What happens when AI models get trained on junk pages?

“Well-meaning” people are using machine translation to write Wikipedia articles in languages that they don’t speak themselves, accelerating the degeneration in quality of the web corpus for several languages with relatively few native speakers.

Perfect example of what they mean by meritocracy.

On World Mental Health Day, a reminder: Endless resilience comes at a cost In India, access to mental health services remains inconsistent, underfunded, and unevenly distributed.

The media's really just going to bounce over the fact that at Trump's meeting today they said "we've been fighting antifa for a hundred years, since they tried to stop us in 1930s Germany" and everyone nodded along, huh

Streets are still closed off in front of the Portland ICE facility at 8:30pm. Protesters have gathered on a side street. Dance party in progress.

others have said more and better stuff about the rest of it but fundamentally even if you AGREE with the guidelines as stated (i don't) it is still going to be a problem. we know it will. because it is already a problem

i am concerned for the reason that (among others) even content that bluesky has deemed acceptable will be flagged given that EVERY time i've posted an artwork including artistic nudity, it has been labeled as sexual content, and my attempts to appeal have been universally ignored #bskycensorship

95 million-year-old 'tiny, tiny skull' from never-before-seen crocodile-like creature discovered in Montana Researchers have described a whole new family of extinct crocodyliforms based on the fossilized remains of a single teenage croc named Elton discovered in the Blackleaf Formation.

"Around 95 million years ago, small crocodile-like creatures with strange, sheathed teeth burrowed along the shores of the Western Interior Seaway in what is now southwest Montana, a new study suggests."

A tweet by @ComradeChillski saying 'Every time I talk to a college Republican, I remember that they're just overachieving school shooters who just realized they could kill far more people by cutting public programs than they ever could with guns.'
