My daughter and I just found 10 four leaf clovers. 10!

No reason, but if anyone knows of any dope comms jobs (esp with wfh ability!) please feel free to think of me! I'm pretty good at communicating and simultaneously a personality hire, so it's really good value!

Gifs are less appealing to younger generations because they have far fewer shared cultural touchstones, in this essay I will...

I've been tasked for a while now with fixing up AI-generated writing for different clients, and LLM writing is genuinely getting worse. It makes less sense, proves fewer salient points, and is even less grammatical than outputs I edited maybe six months ago. It's fascinating (in a horrible way).

this is exactly correct

Hey perimenopausal or menopausal people or doctors: What are we taking for the brain fog? I can’t remember ANYTHING.

Meta is a tool of fascism. (It has been for a long time, but no time like the present to figure it out).

I am now the proud owner of 27 teeth. Feeling pretty weird about this whole week.

Apropos, here's a throwback episode of the podcast I used to do: open.spotify.com/episode/5cBd...

EXCITING NEWS After 15 years of never being able to sell a used textbook to the guy who comes by our offices, I just sold a TEN YEAR OLD BOOK because APPARENTLY no one trusts E-texts anymore and everyone is going analog again!! PRINT BOOKS ARE COMING BACK BABEE

A paleontologist or a baker. Interestingly, I am looking to make a career change 🤔

Quick, everyone wish me luck!

wrote on saturday that trump was not going to let democrats avoid the question of impeachment and here we are with an offense that would have had a president impeached, removed and *at least* exiled if it had happened at any point prior to now.

De-policing your thoughts includes recognizing when you're policing the potential guilt and suitable punishment of people with whom you have no relationship. Society has enabled us to judge people who share no community or communion with us. We are still unpacking how unhealthy it is for us all.

This is the sort of credulity that we as humans cannot afford in our press. NOT A SINGLE ONE OF THESE SO FAR HAS BEEN “ACTING ON ITS OWN” every single one has been trained on data where people had done this first and then asked to attempt to do this all for the “if anything our AI is *too* powerful”

Try hating racism as much as you hate Black people telling you about yourselves and your ancestors and then maybe together we can get somewhere.

I got some body sprays to try, and I like them a lot, but now my face smells like 3 different people and I don't think they are people who would get along with each other. There's also a hint of the smell of an ex's house from 2008, which is a bit of a trip.

Three years ago I was so sick the only thing I could have for my birthday was plain rice. Today I got to make and eat a (modified) cheesecake. I'm grateful to have made it to 40 years old. 🎂

Anyway, hey, if you want to help me raise $2K

This part of the nature paper really underscores why “Gen AI has the illusion of… discovery with overconfidence” Mathematically, and procedurally, it goes directly to known data and maps a plan from there. Which gives high confidence based on what’s known. But, thus, limits findings to what’s known

Anyway. Love a good restorative solution.

Part of why I don't like the AI-or-bust economy is the constant flopsweat of people on the news who say this HAS to work. Quit making everyone so anxious. Goddamn. If this is the next Google then why are you acting like this? I don't remember being told to buy an iPhone at gunpoint.

As an expert on sexual violence, I have to add that these ethical violations are a nightmare for interviews on sensitive subjects. I would never recommend ANY survivor goes public with their story at an outlet that would do this to them.

talked about this before and again, i'm speaking as a third generation journeyman trades worker, but working in trades is not something that any of the people who write these pieces, or honestly most of you, respect at all. It's perceived as something you do when all the "good" options are gone.

i would rather remove my eyeballs than witness an AI tingler cover

I have to do a scary thing soon, and I am kind of at a loss as to how to amp myself up for it. How do you mentally prepare for a Scary Thing?

1. How are you responding to students using AI? 2. When considering AI is trying to mathematically account for every writing possibility--what do you think about that? 3. How do you identify a piece of writing as AI generated? 4. Where do you think AI will take writing in the next 5-10 years?

The 24 hour mark approaches and I am 1 Signed Book w/Sketch away from my stretch goal to add extra pages to my book!! 🪶 #sciart #nature #art #poetry #books Feather & Stone on @BackerKit! www.backerkit.com/c/projects/m...

Trump's new AI powered website confirmed Biden won in 2020 and that Trump's name is in the Epstein files. Classic

This part of the muse privacy and security debacle manages to be worse than it agreeing to lowball offers in your name on marketplace, giving the buyer your address, and then telling them you're home when you're not; because this part? The "it reading messages you explicitly told it not to" part?…

Updates + sales goal! I'm broke and I need some sales. I want to keep prices affordable, but it's hard to keep up with demand while avoiding burnout, so *TIPS ARE EXTRA APPRECIATED RIGHT NOW* Goal: $0/$1500 Shop my work → cvkvlv.com Tips → cvkvlv.com/products/tip... MVTO! (THANK YOU!) 🖤

Seriously, just do not use muse

It should really bother everyone more that these "AI" companies and the people that run them are always— ALWAYS— looking for ways to trick or coerce us into giving up more and more ourselves to them.

In light of this and some other things, I am gonna become one of those birthday month type people. October, here I come!

This kind of stuff feels like its designed to prey on folks with dementia specifically 😑
