Hey sorry our chatbot encouraged you to die by suicide but in our defense you were violating our terms of service because you died by suicide.
Additionally, OpenAI argues its not liable because Raine, by using ChatGPT for self-harm, broke its terms of service

I just learned the Bugs Bunny No meme doesn't even come from him saying no. It's a frame rotated 90 degrees from him taking a drink from a bottle. I needed to share this.

Not Gonna Lie, folks. I am incredibly dubious in this day and age of any study that states 'you don't reach adulthood until X' considering how the 'full brain at 25' thing has been weaponized by both young and old to avoid responsibility and deny autonomy

"It is against the TOS to be talked into suicide by our LLM" is possibly the most evil tech bro thing I've ever read

"Die Familienunternehmer" haben die Liste der Mitglieder ihres Präsidiums vom Netz genommen.
Der Verband der Familienunternehmer möchte mit der AfD "ins Gespräch kommen".
Ein flüchtiger Blick auf die Liste der im Präsidium vertretenen Unternehmen offenbart:
Kontakte zu Nazis sind Familientradition, vom Propagandisten der Judenverfolgung Hermann Röchling bis zu Himmlers Freund Dr. Oetker.

Seeing Americans who are border-brained and dismiss this stuff as 'foreign' interference is so funny.
Who do you think pays for such work? It's Americans.
It's no more 'fake' and no less 'American' than y'all using cheap outsourced Asian labor for your publishing, animation, or VFX work, etc.

The reactions to this Location feature on Twitter are funny to me in that, it's very amusing to me that anyone with common sense thought America or Europe could get anything done without cheap outsourced African and Asian labour.
Including mass-propagation of racismo and hate lol.

The real and true story of why Police Squad (the TV series Naked Gun was based on and easily the funniest tv show of its time) was canceled is legitimately insane and one of the most egregious examples of TV malpractice I’ve ever heard:

Seeing how much of the right-wing on Twitter is just bot farms, kinda lays bare how much hate and hatred is a project that needs to be constantly maintained, a fire that needs to be fed all the time lest it go out for a moment, so much time, effort, and resources to keep people angry and hateful.

It’s blowing my mind that schools, universities, public services would run headlong into this. We spent 15 years documenting black boxes. This is a black box in a black hole!
I don't understand how anyone can watch how blatantly Grok is manipulated to answer the way ownership desires it to and then act like the other LLM chatbots couldn't possibly be similarly but less obviously compromised to produce responses in whatever way corporate interests and priorities dictate.

one of the things that makes me most mad about genAI (and there are many) is we've been told there's not enough money for hiring. but there's billions poured into ai.
so not enough money to hire workers. but infinite money to pour into technology whose goal is never having to pay workers again.

This; and also not wanting to upgrade to a device crammed full of useless "AI"
"Device hoarding" lol. Do you have any idea how much phones cost? Upgrading is expensive and produces a ton of e-waste!
If you want to talk about hoarding, the conversation should be around billionaires hoarding wealth!

Americans are holding onto devices longer than ever before, and while it may be consumer smart, it comes at a cost to work productivity and the U.S. economy.

Twitter had to turn off its location feature within hours because thousands of prominent and "verified" MAGA accounts turned out to be foreign and I think it's hilarious that Elon was the one who exposed them all

It remains insane to me that DOGE was treated at the time as an impressive shock and awe accomplishment - “you can’t deny he’s getting stuff done!” - and then instantly memory holed by the press once if became clear it was a total failure by every possible standard including Musk’s own
Difficult to overstate how profound a failure DOGE was. Spending in FY2025 was not only than in FY2024 – but higher than it was projected to be when Trump first took office.*
The little bit of spending DOGE cut has already killed hundreds of thousands and will eventually lead to millions of deaths.

Bye bye, “DOGE”.
