There are people speculating that AI is going to be named as Person Of The Year on a number of lists. I don't think AI should be named POTY on any list. POTTY, sure, it definitely deserves that, but not POTY.

AI "safety" and "alignment" are a joke. All they can do is either tweak the system prompt (which will never be 'safe', it just goes in the soup with the rest of the input) or pattern-match on input/output, the kind of the 9-year-olds figure out ways around in kids games.

Each generation must develop it's own midnight foot damage item. We've had Lego bricks, D4's, upturned plugs, and countless others. This is the ancient version. It serves no purpose other than making people yell in the dark.
Ok. Utterly non-political, human history post here, because I find it fascinating and love a good mystery! This thing... Almost only found in Gaulish and Celtic British regions during the Roman era. What is it for?

Gotta love people who post reviews that are so hugely off the mark because they fundamentally misunderstand what they're reviewing. "This episode of 'Murder She Wrote' is absolute trash because it's not a noir story about a hard boiled detective tracking down a grizzly serial killer."

![[Scene is a kitchen - a middle aged woman called JANET is boiling peas at the stove. A younger more colourfully dressed woman named LIZ approached her.]
JANET:
Ugh...
LIZ:
What's up?
JANET:
I am so bored of cooking peas!
LIZ:
Have you tried...
AI peas?
JANET:
AI peas?
LIZ:
They're peas with AI!
[Liz holds up to us a packet of peas labelled: Pea-i AI - Peas with AI].
LIZ:
Al-powered peas harness the potential of your peas
JANET:
What
LIZ [Now a voiceover as we cut to a whizzy technology diagram of peas all connected by meaningless dotted lines]
Why not take your peas to the next level with Al Peas' new Al tools to power your peas?
[Show a techno diagram of a pea with a label reading 'AI' pointing to a random zone in it]
LIZ:
Each pea has Al in a way we haven't quite worked out yet but it's fine
[Show Janet and Liz now in a Matrix-style world of peas]
LIZ:
With Al peas you can supercharge productivity and make AI work for your peas!
JANET:
What
LIZ:
Shut up
LIZ:
Our game-changing Pea-Al gives you the freedom to unlock the potential of the power of the future of your peas workflow
From opening the bag of peas
to boiling the peas
to eating the peas
To spending millions on adding Al to the peas and then having to work out what that even means.
JANET:
Is it really necessary to-
LIZ [Grabbing Janet by the collar]:
THE PEAS HAVE GOT AI, JANET
[Cut to an advert ending screen, with the bag of peas and the slogan:
AI PEAS: Just 'Peas' for god's sake buy the AI peas.

I was never a huge fan of Grammarly to begin with. It just seemed like a way to make everybody that uses it sound the same. Then they added AI stuff and I was even more dubious. And now they've done this. It's firmly in "Won't touch with a bargepole" territory now. www.theverge.com/news/808472/...

I think a lot of people are missing the point of the big generals meeting. The point is that there was no point. The tangerine twit and his pet fox news presenter were just showing off that they could make a bunch of generals sit and listen to them.

I know that there wasn't universal acclaim, but I finally got around to seeing The Fantastic Four, and they actually made a proper Fantastic Four movie. I liked it.
