The BEST thing that true believers in AI could do is stop evangelizing to people, like me, who think it sucks. Do the hard, years-long work of detaching your beloved technology from the worst people in the world right now: shameless fascists driven by greed and domination. They’re YOUR partners.

AI is an unregulated emergency on every level--academia, art, national security, privacy, the environment, faith in journalism, and on and on and on--and deriding those who are desperately trying to pull the handbrake as we go over the cliff as alarmists will not age well (if we get to age at all).

Duckfeed is Top of the Pops when it comes to video game podcasting and you should help them out if you can.

We're fundraising through a GoFundMe campaign, which we've linked below. We know times are tough, and we can't hope to recover all of what we lost, but it's bad, and literally anything will help. See the details in the patreon post above, or in the following link. gofund.me/330fa4cb8

If you're looking for a political home that does not see your existence as something to be bargained with in exchange for a token win; and if you want to be part of the political formation with more trans people than any other in the US, well, you know where to go, comrades. There is an alternative.

Moronic flailing nonsense. I feel like whomever did that graphic gets it, though.

The political operative Adam Jentleson once believed “the way for Democrats to win was to get your base really riled up.” He’s now trying to wrest the Party away from its far-left flank. www.newyorker.com/news/the-led...

while hacking software automation will certainly be a real problem the anthropic engineer is a kid who is pushing the idea that AI is on the cusp of self-aware superintelligence at which point it will immediately decide to kill us all

Just how many of your wallets does the Wallet Inspector have at this point?

This is the crux of the debate, right? Whether it's doing mimicry or reasoning. I struggle to see how you could view it as purely mimicry. It has to tie together multiple novel thoughts in a logical construction to create its responses.

Leftists are trying to figure out how to amass enough power to do things, while fascists are just seeing how much they can do before someone stops them. Liberals are just negotiating an ever-narrower understanding of what the rules allow them to do.

this is the funniest argument ever, honestly. no one even wanted her to run a *good* campaign. we asked that she not eviscerate herself unnecessarily. uncommitted would have settled for one palestinian saying platitudes about peace. that was a bridge too far

being in the DSA is fun because you get to spend most of your time helping people with social anxiety canvass for democratic school board candidates and then go online to see people with blue wave emojis in their bios compare you to pol pot

Hey guys, remember that summer when we summoned an extra-dimensional himbo to help us meet girls?

Someone alerted me to this photo posted on Facebook by artist Dusty Abell from maybe 1989 or 1990. This was taken in my driveway, before we all went to eat dinner. Pictured: Dan Jurgens, Dusty Abell, me, Dennis Janke, Mike Carlin and, kneeling, John Byrne.

The goal now is just to discipline labor and crush any popular anticapitalist movement. They’ve achieved a level of wealth that makes profit and loss pure abstraction, now they’re just focused on social control. Fighting taxes isn’t about wealth, it’s about starving the state of resources

Nothing is surprising about the US starting another war. Nothing is more dangerous to Earth and mankind at large than the United States and its complete and utter failure to curtail the worst excesses of humanity. The US oligarchy and its influence on global politics must end.

I wrote about Senate Dems’ proposed “reforms,” which range from superficial to likely unenforceable to actively harmful; the grip billionaire-backed anti-“abolish” Groups have over Washington and the conspicuous absence of any attempt to touch DHS’s obscene budget.

I broke down the ICE “reforms” being proposed by Dem leadership. tl;dr: They totally avoid touching ICE’s funding, in key ways actually increase ICE funding and instead focus on meaningless busywork like “body cams” and “more training”.
