they want to see suffering, it's very important to them that they get to witness suffering, all of this is for nothing if they don't get to see misery on the faces of their enemies
This is the first example I’ve seen of an American government using AI to meaningfully misrepresent actual events with the intent to deceive the public. We are at Stalinesque levels of propaganda.

They've gotta be so pissed that nobody is scared of them. The whole reason they became nazi thugs is because they thought that, through intimidation and fear, they could get the respect that nobody was giving them - and even that isn't working.

Why is the lesson from The Tortoise And The Hare given as "slow and steady wins the race"? The hare lost because he was arrogant and didn't take it seriously. If he had run like normal he would have easily won. The tortoise's slowness had nothing to do with his victory, it was just coincidental.

Re: Vibe coding - I think people assume AI generates code that is mostly right but has some easily caught & corrected syntax errors. But what happens is more like it describes library usage incorrectly, which causes the prompter to ask for code that is starting from incorrect premises.

If I wanted to destroy an opposing political party, I would infiltrate their strategists to a point where it creates an information bubble, and then feed them bad, self destructive advice.

It really is stunning how much the average person does not care about anything.

Bill Clinton: *Tacks to the right and wins with less than a majority in a low turnout election where the vote was split by a third party candidate 30 some years ago*

The Democratic Party: "This is the strategy we are going to run in every election for the rest of time."

It’s kind of funny how hacking was originally this anarchist practice that tech companies and the state successfully absorbed into high paying cyber security jobs that protect the interests of capital.

I'm 100% serious when I say I think my cat might be the softest cat ever, and I'm confident that if anyone were to pet her they would agree.

People who are still supporting blue state secession at this point are so funny. They're taking over Venezuela and openly discussing their plans to take over so many other places, but you think they're just going to let you do your own thing right next to them?

This is maybe a controversial take, but I don't enjoy Lego kits. Coming up with your own designs using Lego bricks is fun, and I get that for some people it can be relaxing, but to me following a kit to the letter just feels like busy work.

Why did GoFundMe take down the one for Luigi but the one for the ICE agent who killed Rene Good is allowed to stay up?

Fascism is here.

Whether or not we stand up to and eradicate it is the only question left.

NO ONE is coming to save us...not Congress, not the courts, not law enforcement, not the military.

IF, and it's a substantial IF, we get out of this, it will be because of us.

The "You have to obey the government otherwise they are allowed to shoot you on sight" people are the same people who acted like they were being marched into internment camps when the CDC said "Please wear a mask while in public" during the pandemic.

People will say "What are the Democrats supposed to do? They're not in power!" And it's not about what they can do now, it's about what they should have done when they did have power.
Many scholars of authoritarianism saw ICE & CBP as a likely source of secret police if Trump returned to power.

Biden responded by increasing their funding and ranks.

Pro tip for ruling parties facing authoritarian opposition: don’t fund your opponent’s secret police while they’re out of power.

President Biden continues to implement a migration strategy focused on enforcement, deterrence, and diplomacy.

"Democrats are demonizing ICE!"

Makes sense, those are demons.

The Indie Game Awards revoked the GOTY award after learning some genAI assets were used by the winner. Meanwhile, the Nobel Peace Prize winner supports the bombings that just occurred. The Indie Game Awards have higher standards of integrity than the Nobel Prize.

All AI looks bad, but AI generated cat videos are especially repulsive to me. There are so many real cat pics/vids available that are way better and enough that you'll never run out. I'm sorry but a picture of a real cat snoozing is infinitely cuter than an AI cat doing a dance or some dumb bullshit

Jamiroquai foretold that the future was made of virtual insanity and indeed now everyone has been driven mad by AI. Fools that we are, we did not heed his prophecy.

Originally I had Liz Cheney in mind but now it's Marjorie Taylor Greene.
It's crazy how easy it is for fascists to convince liberals they're not fascists just because they're opposing a different fascist.

Dracula is killed with a stake to the heart, Wolfman is killed by a silver bullet, Frankenstein is afraid of fire. My guy, all of those things will kill literally anybody, did you even try anything else?

The thing is, regardless of all the obvious negative consequences, I'd probably at least understand where AI enthusiasts were coming from if it was actually producing quality output. But these guys are all obsessing over the most bland, tedious shit I've ever seen. I don't get what they see in it.

The way to restart the idea machine is to start giving the people with ideas money, even if you might not get a return on it.

America, you have spoken loud and clear: You do not like AI. But what if AI is the way to restart the world’s idea machine?
We’re running out of good ideas. AI might be how we find new ones.
What if the best use of AI is restarting the world’s idea machine?

i believe the problem with most tech is capitalism and not the underlying tech. things can be fixed, improved, iterated upon, but not when the only driving motivator is profit. if we designed things with regard to our fellow humans and our world first, it wouldn't be this way.

Remember when there used to be commercials for things other than gambling, car insurance, and prescription drugs? Like there used to be ads for things like breath mints and cereal and peanut butter. Just like normal shit you can buy.
