The raw milk people are hilarious. All you have to do is meet one (1) cow and smell the situation in which they are producing that rawness and you will pasteurize everything you own for a week

Wanna see a crazy chart? Of course you do.

Spending on constructing datacenters and manufacturing facilities for computers & electronic products in the US now exceeds the entire retail and wholesale industry and almost as much as the rest of the office and manufacturing sectors combined.

I am so sick of this shit. Keep pushing people out of their goddam jobs with subpar "AI" integrations but still expecting those same people to somehow stay paying into fucking capitalism to buy the, again, increasingly worse "AI"-infused shit. I hate it so much.

I'm just saying, if we ever have a Democratic President again they need to go after every single right wing Christian college in the nation EXACTLY as hard as Trump is going at real schools.

One of the big underlying issues with electing a reality tv star president is the media can only see and report on him as a star and not a politician. Things like this are treated like a celebrity feud and not a crazed despot fracturing the rule of law.

There are reporters still talking about Biden’s mental sharpness while the current president is declaring Rosie O’Donnell a “threat to humanity.”

I gotta say I find a lot of AI discourse around higher ed very confusing. "if ChatGPT can write your essays is college even worth it?" did people think math teachers were assigning problem sets because *they* couldn't figure out the answers?

AI doesn't help with research because it makes shit up.
AI doesn't help with structure, its structures are all taken from other works. You can lift structure yourself by simply reading a book or watching a movie.
And if you're using it for brainstorming, what's the point of writing? That's pathetic.

People that are selling AI are like gambling addicts

They lost so much money building it, but believe if they keep pouring more and more money into it they will hit the jackpot.

It's their golden ticket to winning capitalism

No workers to pay
No skills required
Just profit

So this person doesn't care that AI was trained on the stolen works of her colleagues? Or the environmental damages of the data centers that power the AI? Or the fact that using AI to "research" will have you making fly agaric smoothies?

The major AI industry leaders stood next to Donald Trump at his inauguration. They talk about replacing artists and writers and creatives as a feature, not a bug. AI is deeply conservative and it astonishes me that people who are opposed to the conservative project would rely on it so carelessly

Elon saying he’s going to reprogram his chatbot’s view of history is a perfect example of why these kinds of AI products aren’t the neutral “tools” people always defend them as. They’re little political projects reflecting the ideologies of their creators

Just a reminder - I see a lot of griefing about this guy and his threats. Don't wait for the FBI to do anything about him (they won't). There is something YOU ALL can do about him. He has a podcast on Youtube. Go there and report him. Enough reports for violence will get him pulled.

Wait no, I am mad, because you know who did that work that people are using AI to skip? A WRITER. Because LLMs are just stealing the work writers actually do, scrambling it, and presenting it as original thought and research. Writers are still doing that work! Any emotional truth came from a writer!

LAT here echoes what LAPD deputy chief said on KNX: Police claim some protesters threw rocks.

Let's see it. LAPD has THOUSANDS of bodcams out there. Downtown is blanketed in security cameras. Show. Us. The. Video.

Then let's compare it to the use of force in response.

Receipts must be checked. 🧾

The political assassinations in MN = domestic terrorism.

A reminder that the guy now running the DHS division responsible for combating domestic terror & targeted attacks is a 22 yr old with no federal experience, and whose last job was his own lawn mowing biz.

Dems should now be screaming this.
