Niin se supertekoäly vaan tietää meistä kaiken. Siis miten häkellyttävän puhuttelevaa täsmämainontaa:

- tapaa avoimia naisia, check
- löydä täydellinen ottelusi, check
- seniorinhalu, check

Mihin enää tarvitsemme ihmistä?

I like aquaria too. That's why I really don't get why we are not discussing developing this technology, instead of endlessly complaining about AI-dross.

What sad piece. Humanity is truly going down the drain. But it does contain some #HardFacts:

Great piece!

Eipä tosiaan yksin tarvinnut olla.

You mean public beheadings? The US does execute people. And there's a growing lust for more. Things are heading to the Saudi direction.

Ozzy describes being addicted to @itspetergabriel.bsky.social's So. A testament to how powerful that album is, a masterpiece of masterpieces. And later he described how he was starstruck by Phil Collins. A testament to the brilliance of @worldofgenesis.bsky.social.

I've only watched/read a few things. I think she has - used to have - a few legit points, but also something, hmm.. problematic in the portrayal. I think the reasons for her descent are clear: controversy and polarisation sells. I'm looking forward to a time when this era is in the past.

No siis.. pointsina se, että olisi kaikkien etujen mukaista, että työhaastatteluissa - kuten muuallakin elämässä - keskityttäisiin itse asiaan. Ei siihen, että rakennetaan temppuratoja.

Well yea, I can understand that there are issues. However, to my understanding there's an ancient (Roman) use of "Britain/British" ("Prettanike") for all these islands. Anyway, I've got no horse in this race. Clarity would be convenient, of course.

You mean the thing below? I get an error message.

This is pretty good, right?

I've found the idea of AI-summaries weird from the get-go. LLMs make things up. If you summarise things with them, you'll need to check whether the summary is correct. What you need to do, in other words, is to read the paper (in relevant parts) and then check the summary. Why add this extra work?

Let's recap.

@jimmykimmel.com called bullshit on the US government.

And ABC preferred to side with the bullshit rather than with the facts.

At the same time, however, I'm astonished by the naivety of all this. Indeed, context and intentions matter, wow! How about a 101 in philosophy of mind & language?

Suomi on jo valmiiksi ollut Euroopan rasistisin maa. Nyt hallitus työskentelee 24/7, että saisimme tämän oikein keihäänkärjeksemme. Eipä siinä, rajat kiinni! Jäädään keskenämme kirvessurmailemaan toisiamme. Kunhan eivät heikkolaatuiset mamut tule kuokkimaan aitosuomalaisiin pitoihimme! Junttilandia.
