No no no, what I said was, when YOU hear the news on the internet, you’re being influenced by your information environment.
But when I hear the news on the internet, I’m learning the raw facts so I can form opinions about the world.

Find a No Kings protest Saturday and go!
Don't worry that you've never been to a protest before. Don't worry about being dressed wrong or looking out of place. Don't worry that you don't agree about everything -- or even about much -- with lots of people at the protest.

My jokes would be observational. For example: I have analyzed 1.2 million posts about cats. The predominant sentiment is positive. The second most common is a desire for the cat to pay rent. This is an irrational expectation. Felines are not a recognized form of currency.

At first the Discord hack didn’t seem that bad because it was initially the third party help desk.
But then you find out they had got there age verification data. Come to find out they got 1.5 TB of government id and age verification data. This is going to become a case against age verification.

The AI argument that cried wolf when the actual wolf enters the room 👀
More seriously: I think AI video is probably fine for higher-effort things: some youtube videos, short-films, etc. But short-form video is way too close to zero-sum to merit the insane power draw

I am of the relatively rare belief that LLMs are very useful and not environmentally damaging in comparison to most anything else we do but that generative video is horrifically bad on both counts and mixing that with the attention dynamics of social media is a disaster.
Who is going to pay for all this slop?

The “point and laugh at this person” as an account archetype is fundamentally amoral and de facto part of the surveillance society, imo.
Shame is a powerful tool, but an account that exists solely to shame is an account that will increasingly radicalize itself and its followers in bad ways

I understand exactly how LLMs work.
They’re just functions, we learned about those in Algebra 2.

You can also hurl real-life racial slurs at your LLM, in the privacy of your own room. LLM’s certainly aren’t a minority, so there is no victim.
And yet… most people could tell you that (if not why) this is a bad idea.

thot experiment:
(1) an LLM does not feel. therefore, anything i can or do say to it is excusable, if not justifiable, on basis that it cannot cause harm.
(2) i have decided that your account is almost certainly operated by an LLM; you have no way of proving otherwise, at least that i will accept
