In Alien Earth, a guy is typing "crew dead" on a computer and the words are reflected on his face, but they aren't reversed like they should be. For readabilty I guess. They should've used a palindrome instead, so we can still read it backwards. "Ya won, evil aliens. Is neil alive? no way"

I have to say that it seems like lots of AI power users are in the gamified machine zone — attracted by the constant attention of feedback loops, agnostic of what that feedback is. The casino has come for the minds of the C suite.

Copilot consumes Nadella’s life outside the office as well. He likes podcasts, but instead of listening to them, he loads transcripts into the Copilot app on his iPhone so he can chat with the voice assistant about the content of an episode in the car on his commute to Redmond. At the office, he relies on Copilot to deliver summaries of messages he receives in Outlook and Teams and toggles among at least 10 custom agents from Copilot Studio. He views them as his AI chiefs of staff, delegating meeting prep, research and other tasks to the bots. “I’m an email typist,” Nadella jokes of his job, noting that Copilot is thankfully very good at triaging his messages.

Harold, No
An old man sits in a corner. A voice from off screen says "Harold there's someone at the door for you." Harold's face begins to shrink inward, the speaker continues "Harold, he says it's important. No- Harold. HAROLD!" Harold's head now has a full cutout in it, his face beginning to recede behind a corner. "Harold, stop it." Harold's face is now completely gone into the black inside the hole in his head. The voice says "Get out of there right now Harold." Harold says "NO!"

The Russian invasion of Ukraine was an ideational watershed. Ideas that have been proven wrong since then:

1) EU can't survive without RU energy
2) US will defend Europe; EU should not have military functions
3) Popper is wrong, total free speech is not a problem for democracies

OLYMPUS 593B ROLLS-ROYCE/SNECMA c.1969

Four of these engines were fitted to each of the two Concorde supersonic airliner prototypes. This engine was in the French 001 prototype for its first supersonic flight. It was later installed in the British 002 prototype for its first flight at twice the speed of sound and for other test flights. Early versions of the Olympus were fitted to the Avro Vulcan bomber and a variant was developed for the TSR2 supersonic strike aircraft. This formed the initial basis for the Concorde power plant. OLYMPUS 593B ROLLS-ROYCE/SNECMA Twin spool turbojet with re-heat; 7 stage low pressure compressor; 7 stage high pressure compressor; combustion, 8 flame tubes in casing; turbine, 2 separate stages. Power: static thrust 31,000 lb (138 kN); with re-heat 36,280 lb (161 kN) Weight: 3,110 kg (6,850 lb) Text from display Four of these engines were fitted to each of the two Concorde supersonic airliner prototypes.

seriously begging US journalists to properly alt text their screenshots so that the rest of the world can properly mute names/keywords and have functional internet for once.

we don't mind knowing what shit you're going through. it's the overwhelming volume that we can't stand.

It’s unfortunate that some studios are mandating new hires be in-office only, because it just locks out so much talent and makes job searching that much more difficult and demoralizing.

I've built a machine that can be Confidently Wrong. It can also make pictures that all look a bit the same, as well as make a video of you kissing any celebrity or person you know. In payment, I'd like to boil the world's oceans dry, & steal all literature. For some reason, my head is not on a spike
