Alex Pretti "used to tell people off when they made sexist comments to female physicians. He bought me coffee when I had a really bad day as an intern...I laughed alongside him daily. He made a point to teach medical residents without judgement, but with a smile on his face and a joke."

Alex Pretti was a colleague at the VA. We hired him to recruit for our trial. He became an ICU nurse- I lover working with him. He was a good kind person who lived to help and these fuckers executed him.

i think this usefully focuses on some neglected aspects within the discussion: we exist in an economic context, and LLMs are products with a specific, non-neutral shape and context, which have been significantly overhyped and which have safeguards significantly underimplemented.
“Relying on chatbots isn’t fringe — it’s the predictable result of care made scarce, stigmatized, and costly. Recognizing that doesn’t mean uncritically embracing chatbot care, but it’s past time to name what’s happening: Privately owned chatbots are functioning as public health resources.”
‘AI psychosis’ discussions ignore a bigger problem with chatbots
Don’t frame chatbot failures as human “insanity.”

Just got a call from the vet, she’s confirmed the intestinal blockage and is going into surgery between today and tomorrow, gave me an estimate cost of $600 on top of the hospitalization costs
We need all the help we can get

I HATE having to do this again, but emergencies dont care for timing
my oldest cat is currently hospitalized with a possible intestinal blockage, and is most likely going to need surgery
if you could spare a couple bucks to help me help her, I'd appreciate it a lot
