they talk about it like its a programming language, its reheated learn to code stuff

The problem is that it's either "this is an incredibly difficult skill-based technology that we all have to learn understand" OR "this is a natural language technology that gets easier to use with every iteration, so actually there's no need to bother with learning to use it"
So the “figure out how to use it lest you be left behind” replies about ‘AI’ that have been popping up here strike me as inauthentic but also kind of funny because they grant the point that rather than an automation panacea these technologies are quite difficult to figure out how to use effectively

My standard response is "tell me, in specific detail, how exactly I'll be 'left behind,'" and to date not a single techbro has ever answered the question. "You'll be left behind" is a statement of religious faith, not business fact, and should be treated as such.

My therapist: “I know it stings to receive criticism, but you shouldn’t dwell on it. You probably won’t even remember that comment next week.”
Me, about to change her practice forever: “Have you heard of Ea-Nasir?”

“WHOAH! Be careful not to step in that pile of shit there!” exclaimed the man pulling his pants back up.
Fascinated how the guy who made superstars of Matt Walsh, Candace Owens, Jordan Peterson, and Michael Knowles thought that unfettered racism and every phobia in existence wouldn't eventually include anti-semitism

This is why we fund scientists to study things like oyster slobber even if you don’t think it sounds important
⚠️ Chinese researchers have invented bone glue that mimics how oysters stick to surfaces underwater.
The adhesive can reportedly repair orthopedic fractures in 2-3 minutes, even in blood-rich environments, and is bioabsorbable.

Deeply weird how a children’s book author spends her days lambasting the opinions of the former children who played her characters and looked up to her and still speak nicely about her. Goodness, like go outside and enjoy your life and please for the love of God, LOG OFF.

dudes will watch a video of a giant squid being eaten by a sperm whale and say “hell yeah”
I get that the news cycle is packed right now, but I just heard from a colleague at the Smithsonian that this is fully a GIANT SQUID BEING EATEN BY A SPERM WHALE and it’s possibly the first ever confirmed video according to a friend at NOAA

I can't give details, but I've seen recently very distressed students come to me because multiple LLMs have very confidently and INCORRECTLY confirmed their biases instead of just saying "I am not possibly equipped to respond to that, see an expert first".

There is absolutely positively no good reason to put your name on a list in this moment in this country. I’ve been to literally hundreds of protests in my life, literally never put my name on any list. It might not come back to bite someone on the ass, but why take the chance

Now that Kirk's killer seems to be caught, maybe the news could spare a moment's attention for the right wing, from the commentariat up to the GOP and president, whose immediate reaction was not mourning, but to seize the opportunity to try to incite violence against groups they hate
