Avatar Fire&Ice is really good. The fact that it won’t be a hit is going to cause more future movies to be AI generated hollow garbage. The craftsmanship of it, even if not to your taste, is top notch. Every bit of character time is full performance capture of quality that we may never see again

Bringing back Limewire to illegally rip copies of reporting suppressed by the government is definitely some cyberpunk shit

I’m not some big AI fan by any means. But any technology has a set of ways it should be used, and users need to be educated. But with this technology we’ve gone off a cliff where the behavior is no longer deterministic and nobody in charge of implementing it knows how it works.

“Hey look how dumb AI is! Hah Hah hah!”

Look. The LLM isn’t the problem. You’re the problem if you’re using it this way. The people marketing it for this kind of use are the problem.
"Within days, Claudius had given away nearly all its inventory for free—including a PlayStation 5 it had been talked into buying for “marketing purposes.” It ordered a live fish. It offered to buy stun guns, pepper spray, cigarettes and underwear.

Profits collapsed. Newsroom morale soared."
We Let AI Run Our Office Vending Machine. It Lost Hundreds of Dollars.
An AI agent ran a snack operation in the WSJ newsroom. It gave away a free PlayStation, ordered a live fish—and taught us lessons about the future of AI.

TFW your medical test results come back and your specialist says 1) you need another, better test, and 2) you need another, better doctor because this just isn’t his thing.

So much about right wing outrage is just “I have never had the feeling/experience you’re describing, so you must be lying.”

The primary conclusion from today’s Bsky scrolling is that I’m not the only one who desperately needs therapy.

Not the main problem, but increasingly thinking we need a moratorium on the term "Artificial Intelligence" (both in full and as "AI") because it's clear it means at least three seriously different things and equivocation between those helps to enable this nonsense.
We could save soooo many lives but people are so caught up in their reactionary moral panic nonsense

Sure Google using ads for revenue has killed search. But so did SEO. So did the abandonment of Net Neutrality. To be frank, capitalism always kills its hosts, it's parasitic, not symbiotic
