It's kind of wild to keep hearing about the woman who gave birth in a Waymo like it's this positive heartfelt story and not like, we have a serious problem where women and people will hail a rideshare to the hospital because we can't afford ambulances if we don't have the social circle to take us

driving into work, someone rear-ended me and then immediately turned the corner and away and it's all I can do to not just turn around and go home
(it was thankfully at very low speed and there's no damage, but still, CAN I GET A BREAK)

This is like paying the guys that robbed your house to also burn it down.
Disney is making a $1 billion investment in OpenAI and will let the AI platform use its characters to make social-media videos.

Every time I see this image I imagine someone to the right, out of shot, with a really big saw.
Fucking incredible dystopian shit, comparing super rich people risking millions if not billions of lives just to make more money to people that risked their life actually building incredible things that would then make millions of dollars for super rich people.

Reached the "people think you're intimidating so you can't do your job" cycle at work again so I guess I suck and next year is going to suck and I won't get a raise despite our raise basically being a cost of living adjustment

Sometimes people are like "aren't you worried about the kids and their nonsensical new brainrot memes"
But like, the thing is, I can still spot a member of my internet generation by how they respond to "badger badger badger badger"
Playing with language and rhythm is fun, it'll be fine!

One of the things we've enjoyed the most about the six-seven phenomenon is the way it comes with a gesture, which we've also seen represented in emoji form as:
🫴 six-seven 🫳
🫴 six-seven 🫳
“6-7” belongs in the dictionary, actually

All of this talk about queerness being "unnatural" in the modern landscape and not a single person is pointing out how utterly unnatural it is to rely on something like GPT to perform the natural role a parent has to their child. Fuck off.

This entire grift relies on convincing people that they don't know how to do the things they have always known how to do, and ironically, if it works, we will, in a very short amount of time, forget how to do all the things we have always known how to do.

the truth is before gAI we've been using AI scripts to automate repetitive or inefficient tasks just fine for decades, gAI makes those same tasks absolutely impossible or dangerous to do. it basically rendered decades of technology unusable. and it kills the planet and ruins economies as it does it.

an example: the thing that pisses me off so much about people using chatgpt as a search engine is using an algo generator to search for results actively *makes up the results*.
a web search is a script that simply collects and indexes existing data directly. there's no middle hallucination step.

AI automation =/= AI generation. the scripts to automatically transcribe voice to text or whether your party character prioritizes Attack or Defense isn't the same as algorithms generating randomized results out of an amalgamation of existing data. conflating them is intentionally misleading.

A quick and dirty way to start sussing this out is to ask yourself, “Is this person really trying to help a group of people or does it look like they’re trying to punish someone right now, in this moment?”
Yeah. Sometimes, behind all the bellowing and bluster and fluency in social justice verbiage, you might observe a person’s behavior and realize their vision of justice is just “When is it my turn at the top? When is it my turn to do the violence?”
