Last month in The Onion:
AI is profoundly unpopular. A recent NBC News poll found that among 18-34 year-olds, AI's net favorability rating is -44. *Negative 44*. Those are basically serial killer numbers. It's not much better among women 18-49. (Men over 50 and upper class are the only ones who like AI, and just barely.)

For a long time, I've been looking for a graphic that visually communicates what open protocol-based social media is all about. Finally, it struck me: it's not a graphic, but an animation that we need. And I created one.
Check it out at the top of connect.fediforum.org and tell me what you think.
Oof, all my handles are invalid, I must have broke something

Okay so you might see this video with the audio muted. Now imagine how the music must sound like. I urge you to unmute and listen to what it's actually like because I guarantee you you're not prepared for it.
It is a little funny, since Bluesky's status page incorrectly stated it was a 3rd party provider that caused the outage, that not only were all the bad takes about the outage wrong. But, also, most of the good takes were wrong as well […]
Nevermind, I'm not original enough

The biggest mistake I see in critiques against AI critique is that critics “can’t imagine a better world.” That confuses me. Critics are often imagining a better world and also trying to achieve it in practice. But there’s no reason to believe a better world demands this very specific tech stack.
New blog post: I got tired of having repetitive arguments explaining why I think it’s OK to be skeptical of LLMs for coding, so I wrote six and a half thousand words on the topic that I will be referring people to from now on.

I think some people interpreted "the ai con" narrowly as saying these tools don't have their advertised capabilities
when clearly the larger con is the pretense that it's about tools and not power
Only a master deal maker could achieve the status quo of 5 weeks ago in exchange for accomplishing nothing of value and turning his country into a global pariah. Thank you sir
Also, DO NOT JOIN A SIGNAL GROUP TODAY THAT'S BEING RUN BY SOMEONE NOBODY CAN VOUCH FOR
they're making a separate bluesky for people who are into this
As promised, we’ve created a policy document outlining our thoughts on AI and agentic coding (AI for software development). We’re releasing a vote later this week for Blacksky community members to offer their feedback. We look forward to hearing from you all.
What the actual fuck 😐

recent Axios story on maternal health policy referenced "findings" that a majority of people trusted their doctors and nurses. On the surface, there's nothing unusual about that. What wasn't originally mentioned, however, was that these findings were made up. Clicking through the links revealed (as did a subsequent editor's note and clarification by Axios) that the public opinion poll was a computer simulation run by the artificial intelligence start-up Aaru. No people were involved in the creation of these opinions. The practice Aaru used is called silicon sampling, and it's suddenly everywhere. The idea behind silicon sampling is simple and tantalizing. Because large language models can generate responses that emulate human answers, polling companies see an opportunity to use A.I. agents to simulate survey responses at a small fraction of the cost and time required for traditional polling.
As I’ve said a million times, I’m not particularly against smart uses of AI
This is the stupidest use I’ve seen yet though
