Drop something COLD

I still say the funniest thing Oda could do is have Sanji transition at the end of the story. Turns out the All Blue was the estrogen we took along the way

☺️

I've got more cooking too

Working on some desert oasis terrain. The buildings are made of air dry clay and the lakes are papier maché on chipboard. Palm trees and cacti up next, and more buildings

Artificial intelligence research has a slop problem, academics say: ‘It’s a mess’ AI research in question as author claims to have written over 100 papers on AI that one expert calls a ‘disaster’

slop machine goes brrrrrr

you can always x, it’s always morally correct meme saying you can always break a man’s Meta glasses, it’s always morally correct

Also what a weak attempt at a moral gotcha. I ran Folding@Home for a couple years back when I wasn't paying for my own electricity. It's a fine way to use spare power in the winter if you don't mind thrashing your GPU, but your individual contribution is miniscule.

The fact you'd ask grok anything shows how dim you are. Elon posts publicly about trying to make his LLM present a distorted, right wing view of reality. I wonder what elon's slop machine would tell your city council if they asked it about the merits of new bike infra vs Tesla robotaxis?

Hey Grok what does my dick taste like

We had that 15 years ago with Folding@Home and those programs generally use regular machine learning, not LLM chatbots which is what everyone is upset about. You don't even understand the subject you're talking about.

Explain to me exactly what "distributed AI medical research" means

Brother we're not having a debate. I'm fully trying to hurt your feelings because I see your wilful self-subjugation to tech billionaires as making you less deserving of respect or human decency. Also I think you're a moron.

Come on bro, if AI is so amazing why don't you ask it to make your arguments more convincing? Or better yet just have it write all your posts for you.

Did you feed that through a chatbot to reword it for you? lol

"We" includes the 30 people who liked my post for a start, who are a part of the millions of people rejecting AI because of its mediocre output, absurd societal costs, and the braindead tech bro cult pushing this crap.

Close the chatbot window and read a fucking book.

I don't. They put AI in google so I switched to DDG. They put AI in DDG and Firefox so I disabled it everywhere I could. They put AI in Youtube so I manually disabled the CSS elements to hide it. They put AI in my Windows so I switched to fucking Linux.

We don't want this shit.

An easy way to explain luddites:

Textile manufacturers brought in machines that could do in an hour what would have taken 12 hours by hand.

And then, tried to keep paying the now 12x more productive workers the same wages as before.

That's it, that was the problem luddites had. Not complex.

Hell yeah! I actually threw together some desert houses in a similar style out of air dry clay the other week. Looks like I got some new references for the next batch!

Oh I know they're delusional, I'm just saying that a "Gourmet Kitchen" with nothing in it, a "Main Foyer" connecting said kitchen to the master suite, a "Jack & Jil FUh Bah #2", and a south wall merging seemlessly into an elevation drawing is a bit too obvious even for those losers. Might be satire.

This has to be a joke

Bari Weiss’s Big Secret Is That She’s Boring The “contrarian” journalist’s new vision for CBS News appears to just mean reinventing Crossfire.

ideal workplace interaction

Please remember that in the US, every time you advocate for something to be made illegal, you are supporting more power being given to the carceral state.

And those new laws might be sometimes deployed against the privileged, but they will ALWAYS be weaponized against the vulnerable.

Spent more than we should have to put on a big spread. Roasted a chicken and a ham and some veggies, mac and cheese, mashed potatoes, stuffing, gravy, cornbread, cranberry sauce. Best T-day meal I've ever had, shared with people I love

I think most of them have realized. Now they're all just playing chicken, trying to bluff each other into keeping the party going as long as possible, each one hoping they'll be the one to cash in at the perfect moment. Most of them will lose their shirts, and it's the least they deserve.

Most workers who have "lost their jobs because of AI" were simply laid off because we are already in a recession, with AI as a convenient scapegoat. The AI bubble is papering over a dozen gaping wounds in the US economy caused by Trump, and when the bubble pops the bleeding will be severe.

AI will not replace many workers because the actual cost of running these models at scale when they aren't subsidized by mountains of burning VC cash is actually quite significant, and the error/hallucination rate and public pushback against AI will make using these tools risky at best.

OpenAI will no longer exist within 2 years, many free AI tools/chatbots will disappear or go free-with-ads/paid-premium, existing paid AI apps will triple in price. The majority of planned AI datacenters will not be built. AI tech will stagnate for about 5-8 years then slowly iteratively improve.

AI is not improving exponentially

Take a logarithmic curve with performance on the Y axis and investment on the X axis. We're already on the flat part of the curve, with unsustainable exponential investment making performance improvement look linear. As soon as the bubble pops the improvement stops
