Finally there is no sign anyone wants this. No popular AI song or book or movie exists. After years and basically unlimited money, they don't even have one. They're going to need even one before they get to wishcast like this

For one thing, "AI" is not actually intelligence and so cannot do things like remember what a character or prop looks like, or what happened earlier in a story. It cannot be remotely consistent without a lot of human intervention

OTD in 2002 🇺🇦 began decommissioning its nuclear capable Tu-22 strategic bombers & Kh-22 cruise missiles, as per the Budapest memo.

30 bombers & 230 missiles were destroyed over 2 & half years in exchange for promise 🇷🇺 would never invade.

But you can believe our promises now

on great pirates

A four panel comic, toned in blue and yellow. The narration is a lyric from Great Pirates by the Mountain Goats. In the first panel, Emily lays in bed, under the covers and surrounded by stuffed animals, the morning light peeking through the blinds and casting shadows over her face. She smiles. The narration begins: “peach rose black sky up early.”

In the second panel, Emily stands in line for the tMG concert at the Salt Shes, in front of her are her friends Emerald and Kyle, chatting, Emerald works on a bracelet. Emily faces toward the end of the line and waves toward another friend, Lyric, who has just arrived. The narration continues: “carry what I need to carry.”

In the third panel, Emily sits on the steps of the Salt Shed and leans back, her eyes closed and letting out a sigh. Around her, folks chat amongst themselves. The narration continues, “bury what I have to bury.”

In the fourth panel, we see a right hand raised into the light, wrist adorned with tMG themed bracelets from others in line before the show. The narration concludes, “dancing, whistling singing past the cemetery.”

No no. No, we won't be doing that. We won't be brushing the last two years under the carpet just because there is a current ceasefire. This is appalling, Israel should not be allowed to participate until Palestine is free and Netanyahu is behind bars for war crimes, where he belongs.

This is an exact encapsulation of why I moved to Bluesky.

No amount of handwringing in the Atlantic about how I owe some eternal Promethean suffering to the discourse is going to make me stay on a site I hate, that stopped doing anything for me professionally years ago.

Well – no. Bluesky may or may not be, as one centre-right friend who felt unwelcome put it, “self-righteous island”. But the idea that’s why we went is nonsense. That I’ve largely stopped posting on a site that’s done more to shape my career and social circle than the rest of the internet combined is less about avoiding rival opinions (I love arguing with people who are wrong!) than with the fact the site simply became unusable. It stopped generating the things (good jokes, interesting debate, clicks) I wanted; it became extremely good at generating the things (racists, pornbots, racist pornbots) I did not.

The far-right mouthpiece who told young men to clean up their place while in front of his very clearly messy home, now has contracted an illness from all the mold in his home.

If you wrote such a fascist character in a story it would be deemed a silly caricature.

Jordan Peterson diagnosed with chronic condition after exposure to mold

Peterson's daughter said her father has a "genetic predisposition that causes the immune system to have an inability to identify and detoxify mold."
