As you can see in the chart, chickens today are much bigger than in the past. And they are much more "efficient" at converting feed into meat.

This push for increased efficiency has increased the time and intensity each chicken spends in pain.

Every year, we raise and kill around 76 billion chickens. That's almost ten chickens slaughtered for every person on Earth. It's also more than ten times the number in 1960, and almost twice as many as in 2000.

Part of this rise has come from gains in the "efficiency" of chicken production.

It is a vile scandal that 2 of the biggest AI companies in the world attack children by inciting them to self-harm, and by generating sexually exploitative imagery of kids for profit. I wanted to document this so that people in tech will stop saying they don't know: www.anildash.com/2026/02/18/t...

The judge said absolutely no AI glasses with facial recognition can be worn in the courtroom.

If anyone has already used them to record jurors, “you must delete it or you will be held in contempt of court.”

“This is very serious,” Judge Kuhl said.

I just did the dumbest thing of my entire career to prove a much more serious point.

I tricked ChatGPT and Google, and made them tell other users I’m a competitive hot-dog-eating world champion

People are using this trick on a massive scale to make AI tell you lies. I’ll explain how I did it

"European officials actually stood up in Munich and applauded a US official praising empire, while serving a US administration whose stated foreign policy goals include the imperial seizure of European territory.

Have they lost their minds?"
"The US secretary of state delivered what can only be described as a 22-minute ode to empire. A love letter to conquest and colonialism. A proud defense of the west’s territorial expansion."

I wrote about something I've been thinking about for a long time. A kind of post-ironic collapse in our politics and culture where nihilism has become the lingua franca of the internet and beyond. It links Kirk, Clavicular, Epstein, memestock/coin stuff, mass shooters. I hope you'll read it.

The good news is that hidden web tracking "pixels" are relatively easy to defeat. It's also why using an ad-blocker is one of the top pieces of security advice I give anyone, as ad-blockers help to reduce surveillance and online tracking, while helping to keep you safer from malware.
