it really didn’t take long for OpenAI to enter its binance era. just make cryptic non-statements and boost conspiracy theories and watch your stock price go up!

LAION reckons it's finally dealt with the CSAM

and I'm sure everyone who trained on that can easily integrate this change, right. right?

oh, right, they can't, because none of the chucklefuck shit works that way. but I'm sure they'll totes jump right onto a full retraining cycle, because they're such good and ethical people who totally live the values they claim

Price: $280k, limited to 88 pieces...

I was going to say they were cowards about this because it's powered by wind-up mechanics rather than burning droplets of black ship oil you feed into the tiny oil barrel. But then I realised that would probably waste most of the energy on heat, right on the delicate mechanisms and your wrist, and who wants to use an energy source that damages everything around it with excessive warming

I can't remember if a oneliner for the weekly thread title has been posted already, so I made one for GNU date:

Note, this is locale-dependent.
