AOC: "As AI begins to encroach in our society, their goal is to take your cognition away from you. AI's goal is to take your thoughts away from you, your ability to think away from you, so that you become dependent on a machine ... reading books is active resistance"

It's convenient for the child rapists who now run EA to claim Veilguard was a massive flop because what they want to do already is eliminate any part of EA that isn't a gambling and sportswashing operation. You don't have to fucking help them.

Also, again, speaking directly to liberals, you know how you hate Palantier? Evil company, Peter Thiel is spooky, right? James Carville has worked directly for Palantier selling their systems to the New Orleans police. Does that sound like a guy who's looking out for your best interests?

Every time I mention how much I hate James Carville, even in the context of a joke, someone on here will try to tell me that he's a great fighter for Democracy and he's doing his best to make things better and I need to give him respect. Get it through your head, James Carville is a malignancy.

Today we're announcing our $445M Series D and announcing that we've reached profitability. Huge thanks to Eclipse for leading the round, which included participation from existing investors USIT, Jane Street, Riot Ventures, Intel Capital, Friends and Family Capital, and Counterpart Ventures.

writing a rationalist fanfic about 'who framed roger rabbit?' but it's a series of spreadsheets and charts explaining the economic benefits of a freeway system and justifying the wholesale destruction of toontown

It’s not better for the generations after us, who are watching every one of their career ambitions disappear in real time before they even get to start them There are students right now on their third or fourth change of major, as the funding keeps getting cut and the rugs keep getting pulled

I feel like we don’t talk about millennials in particular, hitting our 40s - in earlier generations many of us would be reaching the peak of our careers, but because of disaster after disaster, locust after locust eating our industries, many of us are on our 3rd or 4th fresh start.

I'm increasingly frustrated that people who are anti-AI aren't being taken seriously, and taking a page out of my thoughts on why the anti-trans backlash got as far as it did I'm starting to think the anti-AI side isn't extreme enough.

Samuel Alito: We won't overturn Obergefell because it's engendered reliance interests. Jan Crawford: Well, many people had organized their lives around Roe v. Wade. Alito: No, they didn't. Women merely had an "abstract" interest in "ideas about the kind of society that they were going to live in."

I do think we need a better critical culture around AI just solely because a lot of people are being forced to use it at work and don’t understand how it works. But also, I don’t think people who don’t give a shit need to hear about it from people who love it and think it’s their friend.

Plz help if you can things just keep worse & worse & at this point im genuinely considering cancelling surgery just so im not homeless the month after lol

Haunter 👻@holybible.bsky.social

I lost most of what I owned & all of my savings when I was assaulted into homelessness last spring, & now I'm going to lose my job 2 months before surgery due solely to Trump funding cuts. I'll have to pay for COBRA while making less money leading up to surgery - anything helps 🙏🙏🙏💕

as a satire on so-called late stage capitalism how could one beat investors pouring a trillion into a company offering to wipe out humankind

I can’t believe we used to have airlines specifically for trans and pan americans. this country has really regressed on queer rights.

i really can’t bring myself to care about AI anthropomorphism debates. “is AI thinking?” i don’t know. is a calculator calculating? questions for the philosophers. what’s important is that we put sam altman in prison.

obviously covid was already horrible but i WILL say we dodged a major bullet by having that pandemic happen before AI chatbots were a thing, can you fucking imagine the kind of societal collapse if chatGPT psychosis had been a thing during lockdown

The rationalists were right that humans are terrible at reasoning and can benefit from trying to think more rigorously, but tragically forgot to actually think more rigorously themselves
