A photograph of a herd of sheep climbing on a ramp, one of them is looking on the side with a speech bubble saying "BTW Claude, update your priors now so you don’t get caught massively offsides in the next six months."

😂🤘🏽 indeed
As seen below on LinkedIn.

LOL, LMAO even
Screenshot of a LinkedIn whine about Anthropic: « So Anthropic in an unannounced move, no warning, no update to T&C blocked all third party use of people who had a Claude subscription. You were hard at work, and suddenly you got blocked. I had just upgraded to the Max 20x plan, talk about bad timing! Apparently you can only use your subscription with their tooling. Still no communication from the company, deafening silence. This can't be about money: they're not losing money on their subscription, and if you use their product or another, it wouldn't matter. So what is this about? Perhaps they are selling you: their tooling allows them more access to telemetry they can use to know more about you, and third party tools won't let them do this as effectively. Every developer has now been put on notice: this is no longer a benevolent company. It doesn't want to compete on you using their Al models. They can cut you off from your favourite tools without notice. So using Claude is now an existential threat to your business. I used it, because it was good, and with a subscription incredibly convenient. I'm going to use other tools a lot more. I have downgraded my subscription, and possibly will go API use only. Will Anthropic change tack? Possibly, but the damage has been done. They captured developers, but have now put them on notice this company is a potential risk that needs to be managed. And it's a great day if you offer other Al models. They will thrive in this new environment.»

Oh, that's Snoid's dog !
I Loathe Every Person I See On The Street is a panel from a Robert Crumb comic where a short, sniveling character named "Snoid" expresses his dislike of a heedless "Normal Guy."

Hapware has created Aleye, a haptic wristband that, when paired with Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses, can help people understand the facial expressions and other nonverbal cues of the people they are talking to. The company says the device could help people who are blind, low vision or neurodivergent unlock a type of communication that otherwise wouldn't be available.

The Grace Hopper quote "It's easier to ask forgiveness than it is to get permission." just popped in my mind

Variant: That brings me to the most important piece of advice that I can give to all of you: if you've got a good idea, and it's a contribution, I want you to go ahead and DO IT. It is much easier to apologize than it is to get permission. • The future: Hardware, Software, and People in Carver 2, 1983

And then one fine day the bourgeoisie is awakened by a terrific boomerang effect: the gestapos are busy, the prisons fill up, the torturers standing around the racks invent, refine, discuss. People are surprised, they become indignant. They say: "How strange! But never mind —it's Nazism, it will pass!" And they wait, and they hope; and they hide the truth from themselves, that it is barbarism, the supreme barbarism, the crowning barbarism that sums up all the daily barbarisms; that it is Nazism, yes, but that before they were its victims, they were its accomplices; that they tolerated that Nazism before it was inflicted on them, that they absolved it, shut their eyes to it, legitimized it, because, until then, it had been applied only to non-European peoples; that they have cultivated that Nazism, that they are responsible for it, and that before engulfing the whole edifice of Western, Christian civilization in its reddened waters, it oozes, seeps, and trickles from every crack. — Aimé Césaire, Discourse on Colonialism (1950)

However, if you scoff at the idea that one should have any ethical boundaries at all, and think that there's no reason to care about the overall utilitarian impact of this technology, that it's worth using no matter what else it does as long as it makes you 5% better at your job, that's sociopath behavior. This includes extreme whataboutism regarding things like the water use of datacenters, other elements of the surveillance technology stack, and So on.

A data worker somewhere in the world is probably listening to you tho.

Oh, but I thought the "water issue was BS." 😒

Also "gentle giant", my arse...

EAaaS: Entitled Arseholery as a Service
OpenAl's new audio model, slated for early 2026, will reportedly sound more natural, handle interruptions like an actual conversation partner, and even speak while you're talking, which is something today's models can't manage. The company is also said to envision a family of devices, possibly including glasses or screenless smart speakers, that act less like tools and more like companions.
