I wonder how many calories I’m spending daily on the cognitive dissonance created by thinking “this is exactly what I knew they’d do” and “I can’t believe this is happening” all day every day

Wow, sure would be pretty crazy if a ton of experts in the artificial intelligence field relentlessly warned everyone about this state of affairs being inevitable over and over for years.

Sometimes you send something you found online to a friend because you want to brighten their day, and sometimes you send something you found online to a friend with the precise attitude and bearing of a cat very carefully lining up their paw with the back of another cat's head.

I cannot tell you how many tech journalists at prominent media organizations do not understand this
Chatbots — LLMs — do not know facts and are not designed to be able to accurately answer factual questions. They are designed to find and mimic patterns of words, probabilistically. When they’re “right” it’s because correct things are often written down, so those patterns are frequent. That’s all.

Hey if you live in Ohio, calling your reps and expressing your displeasure over this upcoming law is worth doing
Starting later this month, companies like X, Discord and Netflix will be legally required to use a face scan or other method to verify Ohioans age and/or identity before allowing them to go online
They passed it by claiming it was just about porn.

It’s not just that it’s clearly intentional, it’s that it’s clearly intentional knowing that he’s being recorded. They know they can do whatever they want with complete impunity.
Watch the slow motion: it appears to me that the officers discuss the photographer and reporter before the one on the end fires on them (it looks to me like he's aiming at the camera, not the reporter, but you decide)

This person is the perfect complement to the fan I came across who wrote over 100 of the 200 fics for a single ship on AO3. Be the change you want to see in the world
Thinking about this one time I bought a fan anthology but it was actually one person who drew in three different art styles so it looked like their fandom/ship had more people than them... (this info was at the end)
I think about this person's mentality a lot... They are my hero I aspire to be...

If we can make more regular people aware that "the machine that can't stop getting things wrong is going to raise your power bill whether you use it or not", I think we can get more people to reject generative AI. People in Baltimore are already sick of BGE rate hikes as it is.
