I get so many people commenting "ai is just a mirror - they got what they put into it" and that's just objectively incorrect.

Is your mirror trained on all the data scrapped from the internet? Is your mirror pushed towards sycophancy?

Do these people own mirrors?

My new anti depression blanket. I hope it helps. Any tips, Linus?

I'm having a bad day, and the isolation is smothering me.
I even have a song for that.

I bought a bunch of posters in varying sizes (all on the smaller side) for the new flat, & only when I made this collage did I realise how tone-in-tone they all are.

It seems I rather know what I want. Which is good, I suppose?

(Also, it should be caffè latte. This is going to bug me, I know it.)

It’s hard to believe but the Auto Club family— mama Porsche & her now 7-month old kittens Ferrari, Mercedes, and Bentley— have had no applications. Not one for any of them. They’ve been growing up together in foster care, shy at first & needing a quiet home. Elkton, MD Apply crits4cats.petfinder.com

"The Map Room: Dawn" from "Raiders of the Lost Ark" is playing.
The only piece of music that doesn't just give me goosebumps but makes me tremble. 😱
John Williams is a genius!

The look of obsession bordering on madness in Indy's eyes is seared into my mind.

@philplait.bsky.social mentions Betty Webster in his most recent newsletter. Another female scientist pushed into the shadows by men.
She co-discovered one of the most fascinating and powerful objects in the known universe: black holes

Read about her.
Remember her.

Elephants playing in/with water is one of my absolute favourite things. Ever. 🐘💦
The rains are starting to arrive so what better way to celebrate than with a #throwback to this swimming lesson enjoyed by Muridjo, Mzinga, Nyambeni, and Pardamat. Because when the rains finally arrive in Kenya, there's only one appropriate response: dive in headfirst and worry about dignity later.

This is so utterly heartbreaking & terrifying. Imagine what ChatGTP and the like could do to a person who truly has no one in their life! Fortunately I'm not tempted.

Thank you @caelan.bsky.social for devoting so much time to something that probably takes a high toll on you.

"This has nothing to do with policy. This certainly has nothing to do with leadership. It’s just a Presidency that is there to troll people it doesn’t like. That’s literally all they do."

Great column from @mmasnick.bsky.social at Techdirt that dovetails with what I've been thinking.

I knew about this case but not the details. (Thanks @caelan.bsky.social)

As someone who struggles with suicidal ideation every single day & has been doing so since I was a child, this makes me so very angry, furious, sad and hopeless.

LLMs need to go. Start over, do better.

I'm going to try to read now. Wish me luck!

My mind is all over the place, I want to scream endlessly (and that's just personal shit, not the state of the world), my pain is through the roof, I have some additional health crap going on, and our impending move is not going well at all. /1
