Artificial Idiocracy : The hollowing out of organisations through AI, to the point where we find ourselves in a place where something goes wrong, and there is nobody left with the expertise to know what to do.

@caseynewton.bsky.social I've labeled a concept Artificial Idiocracy in an article - AI outsourcing so much thinking that when problems need solving, there is no one left to solve it. Not looking for any press but I like the phrase & was surprised it's not being used. Yours to use if desired!

It's the end of the road for BBC Science in Action. But science itself is facing growing roadblocks. For this terminal edition of SinA I'm joined by @naomioreskes.bsky.social @drdebhoury.bsky.social @michaelemann.bsky.social & @angierasmussen.bsky.social for where now? www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/w...

This guy acts as a lifeguard at our local outdoor pool. Does koality work.

Massive away win for the little fella.

The packaging for this toy sardine is the best that has ever been created.

My daughter saved a pet turtle today that was sprinting towards a busy intersection. She plopped them in a cardboard box, and after some door knocking returned them to their owner. Apparently the turtle was confused after awaking from hibernating. I know the feeling.

Chairs are coming in well this year. Almost time to harvest.

Afternoon visitor.

This was my first post. Turns out the answer was 1 month.

I'm working diligently on bluesky to make sure that my follower and following count are always in perfect balance. I should probably look at making my post count equal those two added together.

I'm living in the alternate timeline where Val Kilmer was nominated and won the Oscar for playing Doc Holliday in 1993's Tombstone. It's a universe of World Peace, Cold Fusion, and Flying dogs.

I support our troops and I hope the Nazi monkey from Raiders of The Lost Ark is burning in hell

On July 4th, 1892 famed American author Walt Whitman exploded while attempting to create a quadruple entendre. Each year Americans celebrate Whitman through dazzling displays of fireworks on this date.

It's Hard Fork Friday! This week: Is AI poisoning itself? Plus, Joe Bernstein on Musk vs. Zuckerberg, and Priya Krishna joins to discuss her adventures cooking with ChatGPT https://www.nytimes.com/2023/06/30/podcasts/hard-fork-ai-poison.html

Sleepy dad syndrome is REAL and results in only a heartbreaking 37% of screen awake time while watching TV at night for sleepy men around the world. Give generously to your local branch of JustGoToBedAlreadyForChissakes today.

Is there an opposite thing to a FireWork? A WaterRest? What would a WaterRest be?

Just me, liking all the posts so the new guys feel liked. Like. Like. Like. Like. Liketylike. (Also me, super grateful autocorrect didn’t change that to ‘lick’.)

Hearing from Elon’s Mars Colony that due to excessive oxygen consumption colonists are breath rate limited to 600 gulps per day.

Lasagna Decadence everyone. Anyone want me to get them a ticket for the draw?

Sometimes I look at people's profiles and it's just them all the way down their timeline. BORING. Add some color, add some flair, spice up your life and your feed by reposting funny, interesting people. Share your friends with the world, it will brighten everyone's day.

My mum's ticket to see the Beatles in 1964. That 6 Australian pounds in 1964 is roughly $145USD today

Movie Idea # 163 : A professional Formula 1 driver... but they are terrified of moving at speed. They never get any better through the film, and just scream constantly during races and breathlessly tell reporters after each race that, “It was just too fast... Too fast.”

I never intended to become addicted to paddling kayaks into whirlpools. It’s just something I got sucked into.

As a kid in the 80's I was full of anxiety and convinced it was just a matter of time before I was murdered by #1 - Killer Bees #2 - Quicksand #3 - Thermonuclear War #4 - Nostradamus Prophecies that somehow included all three of the above.

The overhead lights here at the office went into full strobe light mode due to a roof leak. We are partying dangerously on a Monday morning.

Verstka: a column of "Wagnerites" is moving to Moscow, bypassing Voronezh, they did not enter the city https://twitter.com/revishvilig/status/1672514673713741825?s=20

Anyone brave enough to try and predict where this Russian situation will go over the next week? It’s jaw dropping how quickly this has developed.

The news cycle just keeps spinning faster and faster. I’m jealous of the 1200s where the hot topic for two Months straight was, “Turnips are Agrowin!”

I know that you know me as a world class expert on deep sea submersible rescues, but did I mention my extreme skills and extensive background in Russian civil-military relations with particular reference to private military corporations?

The most exciting thing about the upcoming Elon / Zuch fight will be the gold coins that will burst out of them every time they get punched.

just finished my transformers costume and boy are my arms tires

just in case i don't care how many followers/likes/reskeets i get and i only follow people who i enjoy to read. im here to have fun, laugh, learn/share news, and interesting things, maybe meet people, and have meaningful conversations.

With each passing year, all those Post Apocalyptic 1980's movie dystopias are looking better and better as a lifestyle choice. Sure... there's all the radiation, roving band of cannibalistic mutants and solar flares, but on the plus side house prices look pretty damn affordable.

If each of your feeds on here had a unique playlist, what song are you adding to it?

All the humans that enjoyed various items of food between two pieces of bread prior to 1765, are floating about in the afterlife utterly enraged that the 4th Earl of Sandwich somehow got naming rights.

To kick off my BlueSky posts, here's a recent feature you might find interesting: https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2023/jun/18/mind-boggling-how-big-snowy-20-dogged-by-delays-budget-blowouts-and-politics

In half a century, “What year were the Tokyo 2020 olympics held?” Will be a ‘gotcha’ pub quiz question. If there are still pubs then. Or Quizzes. Or Shnitties. Doing my best @vanbadham.bsky.social to keep the afternoon skeets coming

Where the fuck did this weird idea come from that we should welcome Nazis into our midst and “debate” them?! What’s wrong with people who think like this? These are NAZIS, goddammit.
