“AI is surging through our culture, in part, because so many people are desperately trying to get out of their lives. With very good reason: a great deal of it is impossible and inhuman already, well before the bots arrive.”

The People's AI Assembly ended on such an inspiring and powerful note, with @naomiaklein.bsky.social, Arundhati Roy and @karenhao.bsky.social. Read Naomi's reflections on the night, her podium remarks, and listen to their clarifying, uplifting conversation: naomiklein.substack.com/p/the-bots-a...

the writing on the The Diplomat just gets better and better & season 4 continues that trajectory. also i have never watched a show that has so effectively created an unexpected plot twist/cliffhanger in the last 5 mins of every single episode. many a bedtime has come & gone….

can’t think of a better example of AI being mostly a solution to a problem that doesn’t exist also it can’t help when this is your user base

Just saw someone say their AI runs their fantasy football team and I can’t stop laughing. Like, I’m sure everyone’s doing it or something but it’s very funny to me that pretending to be a team manager was so hard that you needed to pretend to pretend to be a team manager
