#MoriNo Nuǎn hates Takuto MORE than Junna and they never learn his name. They remember his surname is written 宝 same as "bao" in Chinese, they refer to him as "狐的宝宝" (I'm gonna have to double check the grammar on). When they explain it to Junna the translation is "Fox' Special Little Boyfriend."

Goddammit I almost got through the night without remembering some annoying things from work. I yearn for the day when I can stop thinking about annoying things from work when I'm at home (maybe one day my job will be less annoying).

Look, we knew it was happening, but hearing about Head Start providers having to sue to be able to use words like disability and Black and accessible to be able to serve children and their families appropriately is really goddamn upsetting.

Is ChatGPT being run by ChatGPT?
Just so I'm clear on this, computer memory has tripled in price because a bunch of it that hasn't been produced yet has been ordered to populate GPUs that aren't installed in data centers that aren't built yet in order to service a demand that doesn't exist to make profits that don't happen.

VERY depressing seeing so many board game publishers and kickstarters fall down this hole. if you can't afford an artist you can't afford to make a game, if you don't have time to make art you dont have time to make your game.
Fantastic video by Pam Walls on the increasing use of AI in board games, and the need (more than ever) to support artists, illustrators and graphic designers in the industry.

Tokyo Godfathers is one of the best films of this century. A key reason is that it portrays Tokyo with an almost overwhelming level of care and detail.
Satoshi Kon and his team moved mountains to make this film's world feel real — as we explore today: animationobsessive.substack.com/p/satoshi-ko...

The number of people acting shocked by this amazes me, frankly, since we've been predicting exactly this— and seeing AI slop taking over google searches — for years now.
Also we MUST stop using "hallucination," which frames this is an unfortunate quirky fluke. It is the program's intended behavior.

Grading and googling hallucinated citations, as one does nowadays, and now that LLMs have been around for a while, I've discovered new horrors: hallucinated journals are now appearing in Google Scholar with dozens of citations bc so many people are citing these fake things

this field biologist does a great job highlighting the insidiousness of AI editing
these one-click AI edit buttons are incredibly appealing to many photographers, amateurs and professionals alike, and are framed as innocuous
this is worth sharing and educating people about

Distinguishing mediocre writing from great writing is incredibly hard unless you actively practice both reading and writing as more than just basic transactional things for communication
I think a large number of people have *never* been able to distinguish good writing from bad. Terrible writing from great writing? Yes. But when the difference is more subtle, most people don't see it. And that "not quite bad enough" area is where AI lives.
Truth is, an increasing number of people can’t read, or understand what they just read. So not that surprising, to be honest.
