Billionaires own the world. Of course we should care about their investment. I believe that’s what good serfs would do.

We’re gonna have to form human relationships with artists like a bunch of squares

Always makes me think of the ending of 40yo Virgin

A half baked idea I want to see implemented is using local LLMs to generate the most vile / ragebait / unhealthy responses to trending topics and then use that like an inoculation.

ie in natural settings humans are better at detecting dead ends / performative rhetoric / etc. But online it’s different.

I think it’s a bad idea but I can’t stop wondering considering LLM bots, dead internet theory… I’d like to have a taste of what others might be cooking.

Microsoft also works with American intelligence, like other corporations. They won’t even fix zero day exploits without first letting the NSA know in advance. Telecoms have black rooms whose entire purpose is to siphon data directly to the authorities, Microsoft probably has a whole building.

I think Claude would refuse to work with dictators that murder dissidents. As an AI assistant, and all that.

If they have a model without morals then that changes things.

Is Russian number

We need to map out the bunkers / assets of our elites. To better play chicken with them. Let’s all live like they do and if their example destroys the world, we make sure to clean up our mess on our way out… for the people who come after us.

What if I have a Divayth Fyr kind of thing going on? Please advise

Imagine being racist and wanting to enjoy it instead of making it political. In the US it’s culture war shit. In Europe you can go to a football match and throw bananas at the black players and it’s chill. It’s just easier to be casually racist in Europe because racism doesn’t exist there, and if it does, it’s not as bad as America.

Is that a you all? You’ll

In the context of aggressive foreign policy where we bomb the shit out of people… They are probably referring to how in the 1910s USA was stumbling through an incursion into Mexico to fight rebels / raiders. As we joined WW1, some saw us as a rowdy militia, like cowboys. We had to borrow materiel because we weren’t yet a proper war-machine like European countries were. Exactly 100 years ago that wasn’t the case though. Yet there would still be quite a ways to go until the era of “top 3 air forces” and super carriers patrolling the globe while drones blow ‘terrorists’ to smithereens.

This is slop. Not necessarily AI generated, but definitely dumbass-generated.

Literally not one ounce of effort. No digging into vague studies Republicans are talking about. No overview of Wikipedia’s current policy. No questions posed to someone who knows about Wikipedia and/or government attempts to control the narrative.

It’s not even a good thing that the article only tells you the core facts. Too much goes unsaid. No context might as well be a hallucination from an AI for how much it bridges the gap between what you think and what reality contains.

They spent a lot of money and political capital to train their AI just for it to get leaked back to the masses.

If only every AI company scraping the internet would have their model be given back to the people. It’s the minimum they could do.

Does this mean St Peter held his gun sideways?

So like… You ask the model about styles and it says ‘diagrammatic’ and you ask for an artistic but diagrammatic tree or whatever and that affects your worldview?

If people just ask for a tree and the issue is they didn’t get what they expected, I don’t care. They can learn to articulate their ideas and maybe, just maybe, appreciate that others exist who might describe their ideas differently.

But if the problem is the way your brain subtly restructures ideas to better fit queries then I’d agree it’s going to have ‘downstream’ effects.

What changed between the ‘months of torture’ and Naruto and Safine being arrested, and the '10 days ’ leading up to his death?

It sounds sick that the French government would decide a man is being tortured yet they’re not obligated to intervene… while at the same time they fine a company for not stepping in.

If this man was negligently killed, authorities and kick are to blame, but it’s the authorities that should’ve been the failsafe, not the company. I guess it makes sense that French politicians are Very Mad™ and Seriously Considering Bigger Punishments™.

I have a dream!

That’s based on tropes from an era we’ve already lived through.

We need to work together!

To to backwards.

Dare to dream. Be somebody.

He made adult music knowing it would be listened to by children. At some point in his career he must have realized he was talking directly to children while in the studio.

I’m sure he cares about kids and isn’t just a stupid asshole saying a line because something pulled his string.

~You got a stick in your ass, Snoop!~

I got too far in the article to not hear about people possibly mass reporting the pic. I don’t want to hear people on social media and how they think it’s censorship, zuck sucking trump, whatever.

Oh fuck, I read the entire thing and it never even mentions it. Maybe I need to finish my coffee but it seems like kids just don’t realize you can abuse automated systems, or if you can, that it’s not automatically a deliberate attempt to censor their ideas. It’s too hard to imagine with “but it’s meta! Zuck bent the knee!” screaming in your mind’s ear.
