I guess now that USAID is being defunded and the government has turned off their anti-russia/china propaganda machine, private industry is taking over the US hegemony psyop game. Efficient!!!
/s /s /s I hate it all
I think you should leave.

I remember ‘08 when Natty Ag was hot shit. Everything I’ve seen or heard of him since is just chud shit.*
Yeah also people that like AI are already willing to overlook its ethical issues, which parlays into obliviousness about why it’s all so fucking creepy. Again, musk.
Extra context: it’s only for a beat, then it reverts to the correct username. The theme also went from light to dark (my selected theme). Sorry to dox your background theme, autumnal!
SBF sentence gets announced this week. Over/under on 15/45/75 years?
Oh yeah sorry, sometimes I forget that board members and execs are the core contributors to human innovation, and that Google spends all its money on hiring the best and brightest think tank people. It’s why they only make good and ethical decisions that no one gets mad at, ever. /s
To be completely fair it appears he has experience in medical research, with some publications in the 80’s. That being said his LI plots his trajectory from just some guy to thinker tanker grifter guy.
My initial reaction was essentially a mix of “sorry to this man” and “well I don’t really expect psychology today to publish anything approaching meaningful on tech/ai” so I wanted to see if those reactions were justified. Well…
This makes PT look like a total rag. The author, John Nosta, bills himself as “The World’s Leading Innovation Theorist and Keynote Speaker” which really just sounds like “lecture circuit grifter” to me. Let’s take a look at the rest of his front page:
STRATEGIST
Driving change that is changing the world. John’s informed voice has become a beacon of insight to help dissect and define innovation in health, medicine, and technology.
INNOVATOR
Not just a simple observer, John is directly engaged with top companies, thinkers and initiatives. His perspective is from the inside out and provides an “insiders” view of a complex and changing world.
THOUGHT LEADER
John is consistently ranked among the top names in health technology and innovation. Beyond simply an influencer, he is also defined as “most admired” to “top disruptor” in technology, life sciences and medicine.
So yeah if you asked chatGPT to come up with the profile for an AI lecture circuit grifter, it’d probably look like the above.
Looking through his contributions to PT you might think he is just recycling armchair AI philosophy to make a quick buck and honestly I’m having a hard time thinking otherwise.
“Screw the art, I have LLMs!”
From the comments:
Sounds like the problem is that they’re doing the exact opposite of sanitizing inputs. Have the developers learned nothing from the tragic story of Little Bobby Tables? Instead of rejecting noise they’re doing everything they can to not only recognize its presence, but actually parsing it for commands.
There’s a few things to sneer at here.
- First up, sanitizing inputs? My guy, LLMco aint got time for that. The LLM is hungry and we can’t steal data fast enough, let alone check inputs.
- Ah yes “rejecting noise”, that thing that something with real ultimate cognition would do.
We missed the target of Artificial Intelligence, but we’ve hit the bullseye of Artificial Pareidolia.
Hey, you got this part right!
