Watch how swiftly fake quotes get attributed to “S. Drimmer” now.

Thing is, this is exactly what ChatGPT was designed to do. Namely, jackhammer the grounds of truth beneath our feet. Whether the product is “good” or not is irrelevant. Its purpose is to remove people from acts of discernment.

This reads so Onion-esquely wrong that it sounds almost funny...and don't give me some "oral history" nonsense...this is part of normalizing total surveillance & possibly using every bit of real conversation as AI "training data"!

Paliantir delenda est.

And I'm serious. Not "destroyed" like Krupp and I.G. Farben or Enron and Arthur Anderson. Like Carthage. The headquarters, the data centers, the I.P.

Minus the enslavement, of course. And, I guess, the salt. At least not without an environmental impact study.

This is why the military raised the age of enlistment to 42, are now automatically enlisting 18 year olds, and DoJ is suing states for voter roles.

They want to send all non-fascists into the meat grinder of their global enslavement campaign.

I unironically believe this. If you're in charge of deciding what is THE LAW, and you hold that position for life, you should have to give up all of other pursuits and dedicate yourself fully to doing nothing but that, without anything else to distract you or influence you.

Yes I am victim blaming, and no I don’t care: the entire industry has used fear as the cornerstone of its marketing for years; threatening people’s way of life in the abstract while damaging the economy, stealing peoples work etc. You don’t get to walk that back just because it became real for you.

NASA Plans to Start a Fire on the Moon in First-of-Its-Kind Experiment As humanity prepares to land on the moon in future Artemis missions, NASA's combustion tests will be critical to assuring astronaut safety.

Tremendous. I’m sure there will be no unintended and uncontrollable consequences to this!

a lot of these guys plan to literally destroy the entire human race, and live on as some weird immortal brain in a vat playing irl stellaris for a few extra decades until the system crashes
they can't be the best humans, but they can be the last humans

Think about how absolutely destructive to human life the dot-com bust cockroaches like Thiel, Elon, and Andreessen have been for the last quarter century.

Of course people are extrapolating that to Sam Altman and going "what the *fuck* is this asshole going to be up to 20 years from now?"

a two panel meme

panel 1 - geordi signalling 'no' with the text data centres and images of data centres

Panel 2 - geordi signalling 'yes' with the text "data centaurs" and a crudely edited image of the character data from star trek pasted on top of a centaur

Just a little reminder that security experts routinely say that biometrics are actually do very poorly as a security measure.

Not just for technical reasons, either.

Imagine a password that you can't change after being informed it was compromised in a hack on a company that forgot to encrypt shit.

TLDR: everything feels like we live in a simulation because we have forced material reality to conform into a shape where everything has more monetary value as a signifier of future innovation in a tech demo, than it does anything tangible.

Some people have misunderstood this.

We literally saw how Claude itself, coded by Claude, turns one API call into a DOS of thousands upon thousands of API calls done in the sloppiest fucking way possible.

This postmortem shows Bluesky vibecoded a function to DOS itself, in a similarly stupid way.
