Am I the only one who has read about these mushrooms and wondered about a connection to the machine elves? Is there anyone who knows what I'm talking about and is willing to be a test subject?
Not a mad scientist. Promise. Couldn't get into Ingolstadt or Miskatonic.

'They saw them on their dishes when eating': The mushroom making people hallucinate dozens of tiny humans
Only recently described by science, the mysterious mushrooms are found in different parts of the world, but they give people the same exact visions.

Wenn jede Minute zählt: Inkubatoren für Odessa
Bei Angriffen auf die Kinderklinik in Odessa wurden lebensrettende Inkubatoren für Frühgeborene zerstört. Die Anfrage des ukrainischen Außenministeriums war dringend – und die Hilfe kam schnell.

I will never ever forgive Journalists and newspapers around the world (apart of France): what is going on in Iran right now. Everyone should leave whatever they are writing about, and only report this. Regime Cars plowing through protesters, driving over dead, women, children. Mass executions.

So it's Europe + China + electricity against US + Russia + fossil fuels? Bring it on!
Europe, your chance to play the right cards.

I've been a harsh critic until recently. And still not entirely convinced. But the wealth of ideas that emerged in me in the last months of what I could do on my own, is astonishing, and IMHO more impactful than the tech itself. Something has shifted. And I don't say this lightly.
Until December of last year I was using LLMs as fancy autocomplete for coding. It was nice for scaffolding out boilerplate, or giving me a gut check on some things, or banging out some boring routine stuff.
In the past two months Claude has written about 99% of my code. Things are changing. Fast

Yea. Google didn't improve for half a decade, and when they started to totally rework their algos to squeeze even more out of their already gigantic ad revenues just plainly broke it for everyone. And decided not to fix it, but throw low level LLM randomness at us all. So die already.
Feels like Google would have gotten here, easily, if it had 10% of the competition that OpenAI attracted with ChatGPT.
In retrospect, it's obvious how much Google sucked in comparison to what was possible.
It's good that Google's decades of stagnation and taxing the internet are coming to an end.

This is pretty ghoulish and indicates that not only will companies try to monetize life and death, but also attempt to squeeze every last penny out of it, including using words never actually spoken by a loved one to move more product.

My main personal data concern with this technology, LLMs, is how easy it is to create a full profile of anyone, just from their digital tracks. Some have tracks going back decades. This is just one scary direction of LLM monetisation. Willfully extracting sellable personal information.
Folks have joked about this, but some people making these bots have actually considered it—targeted ads from your dead relative or loved one.
