“It seems like a lot of the people who are interested in pursuing immortality in recent years, they seem like the worst people in the world,” Chiang says. “I guess this raises a couple of questions. You know, like one is, would you really want to spend eternity in the company of these people?”

Ted's off to Sydney, Australia as part of Powerhouse Parramatta’s "23-day opening festival" where he'll give a talk and he’ll get to see the art based on his story:

Cuando les pregunto a mis alumnos a qué se quieren dedicar cuando sean adultos, la probabilidad de que respondan «policía» es directamente proporcional a lo gamberros y antisociales que sean. Da qué pensar. 🤔🤔🤔

Une alumne me ha dicho que lo que pone en una lectura obligatoria de la asignatura no coincide con lo que le dice la IA y, well, toca hacer la alfabetización que no se está haciendo en casa ni en los institutos:

Your monthly reminder that if you're using ChatGPT to do your science, you're failing your colleagues, community, and all of us. Here, ChatGPT makes up data and presents it as the real thing — then apologizes when confronted.

My heart is heavy. Walter Koenig, our Ensign Pavel Chekov, passed away early today. Walter and I met on the bridge of the Enterprise in the 1960s, and we stayed friends for nearly six decades. When Brad and I married in 2008, Walter stood beside us as our best man.

Feels significant considering the narrative about Asia being more willing to embrace slop in the final products!

China’s first AI-generated theatrical feature has flopped, earning just $181,000 in its first weekend. By contrast, the scrappy ‘Niu Lai’ turned its crude animation into a viral attraction, grossing nearly $10 million a couple of months ago. www.cartoonbrew.com/box-office-r...

¡Sorpresa! Los asistentes personales de IA trabajan para las empresas que más gastan en anunciarse, no para las personas.

You asked AI for the cheapest flight. It dug through your emails, decided you could afford more, and suggested a ticket costing $100–$200 extra. Lindsay Owens explains ⬇️

This shit just writes itself at this point. Just the name "Epic AI MegaJam" is a joke that best describes what is going on with these companies.

The amazing thing is that he isn't getting Copilot to do it from scratch - it is very much the direct plagiarism thing I have been talking about!!! bsky.app/profile/keta...

This is a good illustration of how so much of AI theft isn't indirect (ie, data sucked into a model to train the chatbot) - it's actually **direct** copying, but *enabled* by GenAI. Of course it is: chatbots absolutely suck at creating good, new stuff.

Props to the ad agency: they nailed the "white person who plagiarises and steals credit using LLMs" look with 100% accuracy

The first genuinely honest ad for generative AI I've ever seen, from Microsoft / CoPilot A mediocre white guy sees his non-white colleague getting praised for good work, he asks AI to *literally copy it*, and then he gets all the praise instead: www.ispot.tv/ad/SoDi/micr...

AI is that classic pick two meme Fast Cheap Good except you can only pick fast.

I think it’s apparent that a lot of the hyped productivity gains people gain from AI are with the caveat of “if you don’t care what the end result looks like.”

The sharpest executives in the industry are noticing this only 2 years after ordinary workers. This is why they get paid the big bucks.

No joke. I think this is the most important video I have ever seen about mobile games. This guy breaks down how this game psychologically profiles you, and makes the game harder or easier in order to show you ads

Every movie, song, and book that you love was made without the technology that people who don’t make art are now insisting is necessary for making art.

Voy a desarrollar algún aspecto de lo que tan bien dice aquí @eldadodejack.bsky.social porque estoy seguro de que mucha gente, como es lógico, no llega a entender realmente algunos detalles de la degradación progresiva de la educación pública en España.

Adoro mi trabajo. Necesito la pasta. Hoy empezamos huelga indefinida en la educación pública madrileña. Porque la cosa no va de mí, sino de lo que es mejor para todos. "Hale, ya están estos vagos, veintitrés meses de vacaciones al año y piden más". Os intento explicar un poco qué pedimos:
