This has been pretty obvious since the beginning. When you build a model, you freeze all of the implicit assumptions underlying the language in that model. For example, if you built a model of physics before Einstein, everything it generated would implicitly assume a Newtonian model of physics.

“We cannot overstate what has just happened. It took just 71 days for Donald Trump to wreck the American economy, mortally wound NATO, and destroy the American-led world order.” @jvl.bsky.social

#ProudBlue These clowns are more ignorant ignorant of even basic internet security than most of us if he thinks there is any security whatever in Gmail. Don't they at least give them some basic training in internet hygiene?
BREAKING: Trump's National Security Advisor Mike Waltz used GMAIL to discuss NATIONAL DEFENSE INFORMATION. That's LESS SECURE than Hillary's private email server. www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

As always, @kentpitman.bsky.social nails it with a lot of great questions about AI and sentience. First and foremost, why are we trying for sentience as a goal in the first place?
I wrote an essay, Sentience Structure, asking questions about where #AI is headed. netsettlement.blogspot.com/2025/03/sent... @briandavidearp.bsky.social & other #philosophy folks may find the questions useful. Also, @steverrobbins.bsky.social and others who ask hard questions about #business.
They have monopoly lock-in, so their "innovation" is tiny changes benefit them more than you (surprise! All your data now belong to us to train our AI!). FREE MARKETS WORK, **WHEN** THERE IS COMPETITION. Just sayin' (h/t @pluralistic.net.web.brid.gy Cory Doctorow)

Some good news this week. Oregon Democrats just elected a new Gen Z party chair. Nathan Soltz is the second Gen Z party chair in the country, and joins @abreezeclayton.bsky.social in the new Democratic leaders club. So excited to work with him!

CBC science show Quirks and Quarks just had another great episode talking about the long term damage caused by each COVID infection. If you're starting to wonder why so many hard-core scientists are so contemptuous of our public health institutions, listen to this. www.cbc.ca/radio/quirks...

“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.”

you don’t need the press corps anymore — just pull out your phone. AOC did a livestream that spurred THOUSANDS of calls to congress. the msm wants drama? give it to them. like right now dems should have a fucking PARADE of fired federal workers out there putting a face on all this.
I'm no politician, but there's not a representative in this country who couldn't find a bright, young, patriotic federal employee from their district who got the buzz saw from Musk and Trump. Get them on camera. Make these job losses personal, ya know.

If you’re wondering why I declined to talk to the NYTimes, then you haven’t been following my account for very long. They bear a direct responsibility for the current situation we find ourselves in, and I responded by laying out my position and that I would only talk to @jamellebouie.net
