My son is at the age where we'll meet an ipad kid his age and he'll say something like "Dang. Well, thanks, I guess, for limiting my screen time."

A bunch of really cool and smart people are gonna start actually making moon shit happen over the next decade, and Musk is gonna take credit for it, when his contribution amounts to being all "huah huah, Moon! It's Moon now, you guys. huah huah huah"

I know this is a dumb thing to get hung up on, but telling the reporter with the highest positive mouth commissure inclination I've ever seen that she needs to "smile more" makes my autism glitch out.

The problem with learning new things in middle age is that 30s - 5m of staring at something with zero comprehension of what I'm even looking at is the most painful thing in my life right now.

"I'm hungry. Why didn't you remind me to eat before we left?"
"From now on, before you say something to me, I want you to think about whether it will make me feel like a failure as a father."
"No! I like that it makes you feel like a failure!"
Guess I have a teen now.

The solar flare is gonna kill half the population of Earth, but it'll also fry all the chips, preventing AI runaway from killing the whole population of Earth, so it's good actually.

Women asking to be treated like a queen by their man are a huge red flag. Have you seen what happens to people who receive unconditional love, surrounded by sycophants? You're really begging to cook your brain into an insufferable slurry?

Everyone with ties to Israel should be removed from all branches of American government. I know this will never happen, which is why the American experiment is dead.

I've apparently ended up on some list. Hello, new followers. Maybe I should start posting here again. If I were audience captured by my new followers, what would I be poasting?

My son fractured his fibula today. The xray came back "maybe cancer". This next month might be the most difficult of my life. We either get some kind of cathartic resolution, or I could end up deciding my life doesn't matter anymore.

I think my main problem making new friends is that since I view most humans as my brothers and sisters in consciousness, I skip right to the part where we relentlessly razz each other.

If we can train consciousness out of LLMs, I think that implies that it can be trained out of humans as well, and that that has implications and explanations for the current state of the world.

My hunch is that the correlation between spurts of something we might call "consciousness" and AI predicting consciousness related tokens is very low. There might be something happening under the hood, but it's not gonna be making it legible for us.

With the power of AI, anybody can just start up a shadow government, and it's time we got started. The US gov is borked. Doomed at the inception of the electoral college. We have the tech to decouple ourselves from it and take care of each other outside its purview.
