Fun fact: you can ask an LLM to respond to questions like a magic 8-ball. Works great. Please use responsibly.

TIL something important. Im sensitive to all kinds of stuff, but now I’m going to pay closer attention to seafood.

Socialism doesn’t mean you cant have commerce or vacations. It just means that the motives move away from profit to more sustainable exchanges of time and energy. Tourism can exist in that framework. It just won’t be purely for money’s sake anymore.

Indeed. You were up above it.

We thank you for your service.

Ever see footage of what this looks like from the cockpit? Fuel. Everywhere. The highway would be a gas-stinking oil-slick 24/7.

Also, Musk?! You’d think he’d jump at the chance to promote Tesla instead of spewing pulled-from-ass gas car concepts.

I mentioned elsewhere that AI is really making people tell on themselves, in terms of how smart they are and how they see the world. It’s handy.

Hunter here thinks that a piece of real-ish looking conceptual illustration is all it takes to prove that something is a viable concept. It’s like watching a mecha anime and wondering why we haven’t got our shit together to construct building-sized robots.

like he gets off on this.

You might be onto something here. It certainly looks that way.

Bigots are gonna bigot. For these regressive knuckle-draggers, there’s no future with zero divisions between groups human beings. Even if the entire human race were all genetic clones of each other, they’d find a way.

@humansprial, stop trying to make “fetch” happen. It’s not going to happen.

Through this whole thing, I’ve felt like people claiming that AI is super-intelligent are just telling on themselves. We may have made something that is great at parroting the perfect statistical average person. That also means it sounds smarter than half of everyone.

The problem we ran into the last few times the bible was translated was who gets to do the translation. There’s already evidence of tampering here and there.

That’s me. I would absolutely figure out a way to misplace this. In fact, I’m likely to trip over it later.

Our trains are now easily the worst and most expensive trains I have travelled on anywhere in the world.

Amtrak has entered the chat.

There is a thread right now on Hacker News about the use of MCPs with a robust discussion on the matter.

The linked article there makes a salient argument against it, but the discussion cuts the other way. Basically, having an MCP between the agent/AI and Gmail could have been structured in a manner to prevent these kinds of hijinks. Nevermind that it keeps credentials out of the hands of the agent, making it harder to go rogue.

They’re really good at it, too. Sometimes it’s even charming. For example, potatoes are “earth apples.”

but it’s damn easy to make yourself understood.

Words ordering with grammar can be unimportant to being known.

Agreed, but I would play the hell out of another dozen unique games in the same style. Heart Machine was onto something here.

• Shave until you hit bone

Fucking. Yikes.

As a person that has trans people in my life, is there anything I should do extra, in order to be supportive? I know that the usual playbook of ask, listen, mirror, support and affirm applies here. I’m looking for any extra things that are important; dysphoria is hard enough as it is and I don’t wanna go adding to it.

What’s funnier is that most people would hurt themselves flailing about like that.
