Gustave Doré's 1863 engraving of Don Quixote in his study, gaunt and hollow-eyed in his chair, surrounded by a hallucinatory swarm of knights, dragons, demons, and damsels erupting from the books scattered at his feet.

Pisan. 162 years later, the scene describes every LLM training pipeline perfectly... consume everything, hallucinate it back as original work, and look slightly unhinged while doing it. The man who read so much he lost the boundary between absorbed and authored. Cervantes wrote the diagnosis. Borges wrote the legal brief. We ran 332 probes and got the lab results.

OpenAI: We’re burning money like the Joker. A miracle needs to happen for us to turn a profit

Microsoft: Please please use our AI systems, we’re teetering on the edge here

The fact that "being taxed on a wealth that would take most people dozens of generations to gather" is "the scariest thing she's ever seen" means the world isn't scaring millionaires and billionaires nearly enough yet.

Disney's new CEO, whose pay package is worth nearly $45M, just announced 1,000 layoffs.

Reminder that Disney paid an effective federal income tax rate of ZERO in 2025 and aims to buy back $7B of its own stock in 2026.

This is what corporate greed looks like.

RPS asked me to write about DLSS5, the "neural rendering" tech that Nvidia have been crowing about, that uses generative AI techniques to replace rendered graphics. I wrote about framerates, fakery, and how you seize control of an industry.

wspaniały ale nawrocki poprzysiągł że nie pozwoli podnieść w polsce podatków a w zamian nie ma mocy powstrzymania rządu przed zamykaniem szpitali. podejrzewam też że ten szpital nie będzie wcale lepiej działał jak w nim będą wybuchać niezestrzelone shahedy
