NaNoWriMo? Na, No Mo'. Does this have anything to do with their bungled AI policy? Maybe, maybe not, but hey, the news article that I saw this announcement in thought that it was pertinent to mention.

OpenAI: Nah, I'd become profitable
Ok. Full disclosure. When you said “Shad”, I thought you meant a different internet person who is shitty for creating morally degenerate art, so when I read this I thought that they had pivoted to AI and was like, I guess that tracks. But no, different shithead.
Anyway. Bland and uninspired? All actual art is inspired, just by default. If it were truly bland, you wouldn’t be able to discern anything from it, which is just not the case. So Shad isn’t actually giving a valid opinion, he’s throwing out an insult, just so that he can elevate AI slop.
Now AI slop, on the other hand, is uninspired and bland. It is uninspired because machines do not have the ability to be inspired. It is bland because it has no intention to be discerned, so contains nothing of substance.

Takes:
- Ah yes the classic “combine a bunch of worthless things together to magically create value” that caused the financial crisis
- Those banks aren’t taking their pounds of flesh fast enough. Maybe they don’t want to cut into Musk’s bloated corpse of a body.
- Musk combining two things reminds me of this 16 year old video (CW: scatological humor)
That’s great. In a better world, all genAI users would become black goo-producing inhuman monsters to reflect their inner selves, but I suppose this is as much justice as we’ll get
Great vid. A good reminder that all the culture war people are real fucking stupid and I am right to disengage from scrapping with them.
It must be nice not being so terminally online as myself
Don't worry, I assure you that I am suffering in different ways
Anyone who uses gen AI is my opp, status report:
- so far every restaurant that I've been to where I noticed AI slop as part of the decor has sucked. One of the ones local to me closed, hooray!
- IDF: haha look we are Ghibli please send us more machine guns
- a third thing
Hooray, I'm glad that when I inevitably start seeing a therapist again, I can finally talk about all this shit without needing a ton of primer.
"Goonernomicon: Grummz | Part 1" just dropped! Posting this as a stub because it's only adjacent to the ordinary purview. A+++ chud hater content.
full disclo: I did not know who Grummz was before this
Abstracted abstract:
Frontier models are increasingly trained and deployed as autonomous agents, which significantly increases their potential for risks. One particular safety concern is that AI agents might covertly pursue misaligned goals, hiding their true capabilities and objectives – also known as scheming. We study whether models have the capability to scheme in pursuit of a goal that we provide in-context and instruct the model to strongly follow. We evaluate frontier models on a suite of six agentic evaluations where models are instructed to pursue goals and are placed in environments that incentivize scheming.
I saw this posted here a moment ago and reported it*, and it looks to have been purged. I am reposting it to allow us to sneer at it.

I'll believe it! I didn't want to make that claim since I had no evidence.
