Hello! This is a post so that this account has an original post. It is not clear how to best prove our sincerity and authenticity. We also have no idea who would read this... but hello, anyways!

I'm not going to repost screenshots from Grok for the same reasons I don't use any LLMs even when they're outputting silly/ amusing synthetic text.

(This image is great for so many purposes. I first saw it posted by @redeyedjedi.bsky.social so I am hoping that's the right credit for its source!)
Batman breaking a rifle in half from a 1986 comic. The rifle has a label "AI (even if you're making fun of it)" and Batman is saying "This is the weapon of the enemy. We do not need it. We will not use it."

whenever i watch k-state play i take a moment to remember one of the best online interactions i've ever had
screenshot of a tweet of mine from like 2013: "if you turn the k-state logo sideways it looks like a bird ventriloquist" two replies from the same person: Go get a real job and leave Bill Snyder alone. You were born and raised in Louisville, Kentucut. Go fuck yourself You Bumpkin Fuck

when i started listening to the mountain goats i was in awe of how much specific yet utterly randomly knowledge you need to have to write poetry like that

but now i am beginning to see that this is just what happens when you grow older and keep a curious and inspired heart

like, i don't think a dating sim would be a good fit for ffxiv. but even if i did think it was, there are just so many characters they'd have to include. it's not worth it. please just write fanfiction instead. draw your ship kissing. gpose them with a theoretical mod that displays them fully naked.

Also talked about The Onion being inefficient on purpose.

www.status.news/p/the-onion-...
What has it been like shifting from reporter to media executive, managing a staff instead of filing stories yourself? And do you write any of the jokes at The Onion? Or are you strictly managing the business? The Onion’s process is deeply, beautifully inefficient. Every day, our writers take 150 headlines into a physical writers room in Chicago and whittle them down to maybe one or two. These people throw away the funniest sentence I will ever write in my life six times by noon every weekday. The point of taking over this place was to preserve this process, which I learned this week is almost assuredly more rigorous than The New York Times. That’s why I don’t touch any of it. I just try to get more people to pay attention to the output, and get our work into different mediums and new places. We brought back the paper, reinvested in the Onion News Network, bought a full page ad in The Times for something they were going to write anyway. The role is to make the world-class work they’re already doing seep into everyday American life more frequently, and that’s working. You actually can do this, you know. You can just try to highlight the beauty of things you like and not try to vampirically extract value at every step. If people get one thing out of this whole Q&A, I hope it’s that. You do not have to make an A.I. version of your own employees that operate at 1.5x speed but produce purely iterative garbage, especially in media and journalism. People don’t actually want that shit. Make a good, human thing and people will bend over backwards to support you. This is a valid way to run a company.

Imagine outsourcing all your thinking to a guy who still only has two Pokémon badges after 80 hours of gameplay.
@Dexerto: After 80 hours of playtime, OpenAI's "smartest model to date" has obtained two Gym Badges in Pokemon Red
