Can’t wait for someone to publish a short book called ‘The Venezuelan military operation did not take place’. iykyk

glad this military operation is ‘extraordinary’ and not ‘special’

as someone trying to be good at economic history at an academic level, the crisis we’re in is giving serious 70s vibes, boiling frog situation

Is there anything more anticlimactic than Black Friday, a day that has been happening for weeks?

love how at this point linkedin language has reverse engineered the Romanian communist party’s censored speech - hollow signifiers of emotion, speech filtered through an algorithm, universal praise for dear leader AI/progress/development, etc

just saw a fully AI ad for the first time and I’m increasingly feeling like no matter how much i expect dysopia to come, i can never be fully prepared when the bottom of the barrel proves to be false

is it just me or the best that enlightened technologists can do is use a bunch of fancy words to revive the technopositivist future?

can wait to see, 15 yrs from now, a headline saying that Iran was nowhere close to having nukes, according to declassified files. Of course, this would be drowned out by news around the second yugoslav war, the secession of the PNW, or any doomsday scenario of one's choosing

people who think the trump-musk rift is final or important seem to have forgotten that half of his cabinet was a nevertrumper three years ago. just think abt vance… smoke and mirror won’t stop billionaire class solidarity

good to see that openAI is trying to build a search competitor right after its product ruined anyone’s ability to index the internet

nothing fits Harland Spinks’ recent commentary on satire being dead better than the new season of Black Mirror. Groundbreaking as it was, techapocalypse humour falls flat when you are visibly in it

just saw an email from some EA org listing grok as one of the mainstream AI services and I’m amused. I guess this is what alignment looks like
