Sorry I know the world is in a terrible fix but I've been laughing at this for ten minutes now
There’s a genuine gaslighting element to forcing faculty to debate whether to teach with AI. If someone broke into my house & stole from me, my employer wouldn’t ask me to work with them. But that’s what AI did. So, no.
I am starting to wonder if people who spend a lot of time talking to LLMs lose their stamina for actual critical analysis because they're so used to having their own priors reflected back at them in the guise of another's voice.
I've had my This Is Fine mug so long that the dog has become a ghost and all that remain are flames
sure the pedophile felon president just illegally bombed a country that may have nukes while federal forces under his command murder and harass people in america and immigrants are tortured and he moves forward with plans to build concentration camps and sorry idk where i was going fuck all of this
The thing about these broligarchs saying things like "AI will get companies to layoff 40% of their workers" is that their ultimate plan is to kill us all off and live forever in robot bodies they can transfer their consciousness into
They don't care if you starve
Overstating the efficacy of our current vaccines and lying to people about the limitations, as Michael and many in the COVID denialist movement do, is actually the number 1 driver of anti vaxx sentiment. People are told they can’t get covid if they get a shot, they get it and immediately lose trust
I don’t know why Michael fell into Covid denialism years ago and hasn’t found his way out but this is false. Our current vaccines do not meaningfully reduce transmission, and they certainly do not meaningfully prevent long covid. This is what any long covid treatment center will tell u day 1
Calling a very well known vaccine advocate “anti vaxx” because she VERY correctly calls for people to take supportive measures like masking since our current vaccines do not stop transmission is wild. As someone who actually does vax outreach in LA the lines Michael is pushing feed anti vax ideology
This idea of powerful people not being able to get away with enjoying the privileges of their status was offensive to our “populist” overlords who successfully convinced millions people that they had something similar to lose
all this stuff makes much more sense if you understand “anti wokeness” as a general backlash to elite accountability more generally, even if you have criticisms of left wing egalitarianism bsky.app/profile/kevi...
“More than 60 days … going to the doctor and that the only thing they tell you is to drink more water and the worst thing is that it seems the water is what makes people sick here.”

I am a simple woman begging liberals to understand that death isn't the only bad outcome when ~48 million people in the U.S. have experienced long Covid, which has no cure
So uh, is it just me or has the general ability for people to communicate in writing fallen dramatically over the last few years?
Every photo from Minneapolis looks like this. Cops decked out with guns and full tac gear facing off against people in bathrobes, parkas, and sweatpants armed only with whistles and cell phones.
Yet every verified MAGA chode on X dutifully calls it a riot or violent insurrection.
A desperate plea sent to me by a Minneapolis resident who's been on the front lines since the beginning of the ICE occupation:

Yes. The folks who study election rumors and conspiracy theories are worried that a forced (and false) confession by Maduro (of 2020 election fraud) is a real possibility, and we’ve already seen some (wink, wink) foreshadowing of such a move.
"If careerists had not been so easy to bribe and blackmail, ordinary people would not have to suffer under this group of sadistic oligarchs and politicians. Our era is the culmination of complicity."

Jeffrey Epstein, Peter Thiel, Elon Musk, and Marc Andreessen share an enduring fascination with eugenics, race science, and transhumanism and there is an entire generation of public intellectuals who benefited and continue to benefit from their patronage.
Pinker, Huberman, Attia, Weinstein, etc.
AI coding tools are showing me more and more the clear differences between good programmers and poor ones.
There are more shitty programmers than I realized.
An entire political movement founded on uncovering hidden messages in documents to discover the powerful secret pedophiles and meanwhile the powerful pedophiles out here sending gmails saying "Hi fellow pedophile when are we meeting to do pedophilia again"
It turns out, /Pol/ wasn't just the random offshoot of 4chan, a board set up to kind of contain the right-wing chuds and keep them off the other boards...
... but was, instead, created THE DAY that 4chan's founder met with Epstein.
You know how much you have doomscrolled today and whether that is too much. You deserve time to rest and recover. Try not to stay up too late tonight.
I genuinely feel like this knowledge might be an infohazard. I genuinely feel like this might be the revelation that breaks me.
"Epstein is responsible for /pol/."
It makes you sound crazy to say this out loud, but it's becoming increasingly clear that the United States government has been effectively toppled by a group of overt pedophiles
Courage is largely a product of empathy, which they deride as a weakness.
