Anyone who uses gen AI is my opp, status report:
men will literally debate children’s tv instead of going to therapy
Pretentious? Try haughty.
AI isn’t “just overpowered statistics”. What you said betrays your lack of understanding of both statistics and AI.
With all respect to the contents of the article.
None taken!
People who struggle to find basic things via web searches. That is, before the somewhat recent ratcheted up enshitification
This is you: LLMs are good, except they are enshittifying search, which follows from the fact that LLMs are bad. But actually, even though they are bad, I know how to use them, so LLMs are good, actually. Normies are dumb and I’m better than them and it doesn’t matter if search is good or bad, normies r dumb and normies will never learn to google good which they can learn from me, a LLM understander who is very smart
How cute, look at that wild rat trying to appear neutral and unbiased and not-at-all a rat and Just Leaving This Here for you to read where “this” refers to the entire fucking canon of rationalist writings.
Did some research while reading this. Two and two, to make four:
July 2022: WSJ reports “that Musk allegedly had an affair with Nicole Shanahan, the wife of Google co-founder Sergey Brin, in 2021, leading to their divorce the following year.” (lifted from wikipedia)
From this article: “[Musk] has even offered his own sperm to friends and acquaintances, including the former independent vice-presidential candidate Nicole Shanahan, according to two people familiar with his offer. Ms. Shanahan turned him down“
Yes, that same Shanahan. Also she’s an anti vaxxer. How did I miss this, lol.
Been seeing some stuff from this artist. This is the most recent thing to pop up for me. They seem alright, though I don’t have the energy to fully investigate their politics.
IDK he seems like he’d be more likely to give them to CIA backed radicals in the middle east, or israel
It’s something of a tradition to occasionally frankenstein together a backronym for bills/acts. Feel free to search “worst US backronyms” or similar for more!

Why can planes "fly" but AI cannot "think"?An airplane does not flap its wings. And an autopilot is not the same as a pilot. Still, everybody is ok with saying that a plane "flies" and an autopilot "pilots" a plane.
This is the difference between the same system and a system that performs the same function.
When it comes to flight, we focus on function, not mechanism. A plane achieves the same outcome as birds (staying airborne) through entirely different means, yet we comfortably use the word "fly" for both.
With Generative AI, something strange happens. We insist that only biological brains can "think" or "understand" language. In contrast to planes, we focus on the system, not the function. When AI strings together words (which it does, among other things), we try to create new terms to avoid admitting similarity of function.
When we use a verb to describe an AI function that resembles human cognition, we are immediately accused of "anthropomorphizing." In some way, popular opinion dictates that no system other than the human brain can think.
I wonder: why?
