Imagine a world where proper journalism didn't exist and no one was shining a light on this stuff. As if you needed a reason to better understand why big tech has been sidling with the right in recent years. It's not like AI is going to do this kind of reporting.
A colleague just told me about this website. It tracks big tech’s AI expenditures vs profits. Wow. Let’s just say there’s a big reason(s) they’re all crazily pushing, advertising/proselytizing, hiring influencers, flooding the zone with the narrative™, etc etc
"It is acceptable to engage a child in conversations that are romantic or sensual." Meta removed that language from its internal guidelines after I raised it. AI experts worry financial incentives will blur the line between human relationships and bot engagement. www.reuters.c…

'Scientists are appealing to birders to limit their use of AI when editing images over fears that it could undermine the credibility of popular citizen science platforms such as iNaturalist and Macaulay Library, which are routinely used in scientific research to monitor specie…
"The boss had “clearly developed some sort of mental disorder,” she said. “Spending the whole day talking to ChatGPT and making decisions about the future of your company and the people who work there based on what it ‘tells’ you seems insane." futurism.com/artificial-i...
i recently read this story about this site that had stats on box office movie numbers that was all done by hand. not only did it get crushed by ai bot traffic, but polymarket chuds kept trying to hack it to get early results to win bets. the web is completely fried.
New article on how many of Nick Bostrom's "best" ideas actually came from other people. I also discuss how Bostrom lied on his official CV by claiming that his undergrad performance set a "national record" in Sweden. If you think Bostrom is an original thinker, read this:
Boaz is incredibly smart! Many are! Do they not realize that "I'm happily building a thing I genuinely believe can be compared to a planetary-scale catastrophe,* I suggest you make peace with it" is NOT great PR? (*Regardless of whether you/I believe it) windowsontheory.org/20…
Silence is the wrong response. That’s why today we are publishing ‘The Machines Are Coming For Your Masthead”, a report on our experiences, small press publishing in the age of AI. Read the blog. Download the report. Share your thoughts - we want to hear them. (20/20 - fin)
'In the Oumi analysis, Gemini 2 provided answers that were “ungrounded” 37 percent of the time, meaning the AI Overviews cited websites that didn’t support the information they provided. But with Gemini 3, this jumped to 56 percent.' futurism.com/artificial-i...
Oh no. I opened a YouTube video and the comments section opened on a bunch of "Comments summarized by AI", so that every "comment" is a regurgitate of an actual comment. I hate it here. Don't @ me if you're a llm user. You're part of this mess, no matter what you're using it for.
Yesterday a 7 yo pointed at an illustration that is over 6 years old and said, "This is AI" I was too busy being rattled to ask him what he actually meant, but I wish I had. I told him this was before AI, but he's literally never known a world not full of slop.
It's funny to me that the hypothetical "an AI could destroy the entire world to make into paperclips!" was considered a serious and terrifying argument, but 3 men actually destroying the entire world to churn out text in an "AI" chatbot is considered so great all our governments are clapping
I'm glad I got to share the videos of my talking dog before AI videos were a thing.
As predicted, more and more interactions are between people being puppeteered by chatgpt while pretending the words coming out of their mouths are their own. I have a solution.
I had this idea of running a neural network in Java, because if writing code with your own 2 hands is becoming as quaint as doing pottery, why would I continue torturing myself with python, a language I hate, 'in case other people want to reuse my code'?
spamming a small research community with AI-generated papers is not going to win you medals
I didn't even consider that people read "the AI went rogue" and actually believe some kind of evil little homunculus doing stuff. I'm so used to the industry using what I parse as metaphors. But even the industry itself may believe its own figures of speech...
Any experiments with what happens when you make the [delta weights] at t+1 be an output of a deep neural net?
