Nothing a quick pill won’t fix.

Now, convincing your wife to take pills for YOUR illness, that’s another thing.

That’s fine, I’m sure billionaires will pick up the tab when all regular people clear out of the Strip.

Peace trough power.

Kane lives in death!

Still running Win11 on my gaming rig. The very first time an update breaks something again it’s gone.

Nopepad now.

I actually think the young crowd at MS would resist this. This looks much more like a top-down decision from marketing overruling engineering.

Last month? Takes years in my case.

“To Pa, who taught me to appreciate a good titty”.

Lovecraft deserves some redemption. First of all he wasn’t especially racist, just the “normal” amount for his time (take with a grain of salt please!). More importantly he significantly mellowed out in his later years primarily due to exposure to talented black writers which made him realize the error of his ways.

But yeah, I wouldn’t ask him to name my void cat.

Must be an extremely confusing time for anyone in national security. How to protect the country you swore to defend from the… people who lead and employ you?

He was not the spider in the middle of the web pulling the strings. He had people above him.

I am convinced I’ll be one of them (genetic predisposition). I’m gonna get killed by my own ass. Which in a certain way is incredibly on point for me, but I digress.

Just 1/3rd. But the other 1/3rd stood by and watched it happen, which is almost just as bad.

First, its results are often simply wrong, so that’s no good. Second, the more people use the AI summaries, the easier it’ll be for the AI companies to subtly influence the results in their advantage. Think of advertising or propaganda.

This is already happening btw, and the reason Musk created Grokipedia. Grok (and even other llm’s!) already use it as a “trusted source”, which it is anything but.

You can set up any AI assistant that way with custom instructions. I always do, and I require it to clearly separate facts with sources from hearsay or opinion.

Man, it would be so easy to show proof of this if it happened.

But Musk paying millions for votes (in a “lottery”) is a-ok though.

Allow me to ready the world’s tiniest violin for a serenade…
