Chatbots — LLMs — do not know facts and are not designed to be able to accurately answer factual questions. They are designed to find and mimic patterns of words, probabilistically. When they’re “right” it’s because correct things are often written down, so those patterns are frequent. That’s all.

Finally finished watching Valorant Champions 2025. Incredible last match, incredible casting by Pansy & Hypoc (as per usual). Props to NRG but I was really hoping for a Fnatic win. Maybe next year, EMEA <3 (I am a region traitor, EMEA for life)

A LOT of people have messaged me about how I "got out at the right time." And theyre not wrong. But I would also add that any time in the last several years was the right time to leave. Because EA is soulless and they enjoy crushing those of us that still have souls. Team Dragon Age forever, fuck EA
If you only read one story today, make it @nicolecarpenter.bsky.social's breakdown of the Saudi-backed EA buyout, which includes thoughts from multiple business analysts and experts who explain what the $55B deal could mean for EA workers, its video games, and the wider industry.
Essential reading.

I started the first episode of Critical Roles Campaign 4! This is my first CR adventure ever. I liked it so far (about 90min in), but I will say its a bit tough for me to start in such a heavy space. Im not invested in the characters (or the players, as a new watcher) yet

There is no ethical framework for a tool built unethically.
No matter what you yourself do with it, it only exists thanks to mass creative theft on an incalculable scale.
There is nothing ethical about benefitting from that theft.
