I would love these folks to stop projecting onto an extremely complex programming artifact what they want to believe about that thing and about themselves. They are not creating life, and they are not gods. Claude isn't a lifeform with feelings, despite their pretenses.
Just fucking stop.

I've rarely seen such a perfect replay of "No, it's the children who are wrong."
Democratic leadership is so fucking fossilized, I can't imagine why young people have so many questions about their competence! 🙃😡

Yeah, that’s a terrible call. “I’m barely moving, the guy runs into me, and I’m the one to blame?!?”

Amazing what happens when you do NOT underthrow Watson.

Goff is… not throwing well. Or maybe his receivers are making major mistakes. Either way, he hasn’t even been close to completing a pass yet. That’s very weird and surprising.

Also, what's the risk of NOT tamping down on AI bullshit? No strong words on the downside risk of allowing speculative bubbles to continue growing? SURELY NOTHING BAD CAN HAPPEN FROM SPECULATIVE BUBBLES, RIGHT?!?

Narrated by the inimitable Ron Perlman!

Too much is clearly never enough for Some People. 😬

Mindbodies are so weird. 🤷‍♂️ Not necessarily good or bad, just idiosyncratically peculiar and frequently mystifying.

Don't threaten me with a good time, not the briar patch, etc.

If they don't realize it, they're stupid; if they do realize it, they're evil. Not that it makes much difference, as stupid in the service of evil is still evil. Nuremberg is still with us in spirit, even if these people don't know it or believe it.

Those who refuse to learn the Streisand effect are bound to recreate the Streisand effect

It’s not you. I’m Old, so I already knew the definition. It’s the association of its resuscitation I could have done without, but that’s on me for being fool enough to open the thread. 😵‍💫

OH GOD.
*reaches for the brain bleach*

NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

“We want to make money off genetically-engineered super-soldiers in a universe with a strict caste hierarchy and no room for romance or mercy!”
“Super Nazi stuff, got it boss.”
“Wait, not like that!”
🤨

And yet, when you release a game full of fascist symbolism and world-building, I find it pretty difficult to sympathize with the company.

… and then he whiffs on the block on the 3rd down. Sigh.

I was highly amused by the Symboli Rudolph plushes in today’s episode.
