Yup. ☹️

Sadly denying this will happen like some below are doing makes it likely. Cryptogyny happens as the default.

reminder of cryptogyny, the hiding of women's contributions to science, technology, engineering, and medicine:
"although three men received the Nobel Prize for penicillin, women participated significantly in the team effort that brought the drug to medical usefulness."

If America had a functional opposition party, they would just be repeating this message over and over. So many people already hate AI. Those of us who lived through the dot com and subprime mortgage bubbles should be terrified about this
“Concerns over an AI bubble bursting have grown lately, with analysts recently finding that it’s 17 times the size of the dotcom-era bubble and four times bigger than the 2008 financial crisis.”

Hang onto your butts. This “correction” is gonna hurt.

So that was a lie. Fenway health in Boston just eliminated access for trans youth.

Dallas is their Executive Vice President of Donor Engagement and External Relations.
Massachusetts is standing strong. While many states across the country have restricted or even banned access to healthcare, Massachusetts has not backed down.

Just finished watching this and I think it's an excellent analysis of some of the ways LLMs companies are putting the cart before the horse and how everyone else is going to suffer because of their gambits.

There's a substack too.

It is fucking insane that we had a decade of people complaining about the dangers of cancel culture, and now literally hundreds of thousands of people are being purged from government jobs for ideological reasons, but that is not cancel culture.

People are getting out in the streets, so I’m gonna repost a bunch of these digital security PSAs. Protecting yourself protects others too. Do the thing!

It's wild how the existence of ICE, created by George W. Bush in the wild police state policy push after 9/11, is now just taken for granted as something that obviously has to exist. It doesn't! It's barely 20 years old! It was made by the guy who held the previous record for the dumbest president!
hoooly shit

This is a real question posed to The New York Times Ethicist

And their answer was not what some might call... ethical!!!

I'm putting a tariff on the word "tariff"!

Hooked up an arcade dispenser to give me a ticket every time that god-forsaken word shows up on my computer screen.

I’ve noticed a lot of discussion here about the religious nature of artificial intelligence discourse, especially how AI and ChatGPT is a thinking, conscious, god-like thing in Silicon Valley and beyond.

An incomplete list of resources on the topic of religion and AI to help make sense of this. /🧵

1. For the past thirty years I've had the best job in the world.


I've had the opportunity to follow my curiosity; explore the workings of nature and society; mentor students and junior colleagues in the same process; and teach generations of students about it all.
