Make it make sense 😅

Much if the misalignment comes from the “application layer” aka ChatGPT. Not the GPT base model itself. We license a base, unadulterated instance of the enterprise models. And we decide how we align it. Instead of giving it “infinite memory” (which makes it your perfect manipulator), we don’t.

Dear @bsky.app team, I spent 15 years building a personal brand and audience of 100k+ on Twitter. Then one day this dick came and blew it up, and now my audience is worthless. What steps is BlueSky taking to be resilient against psychographic influence incentives and actors from targeting bsky? 👇

This is understandably bad sounding…. But honestly, it’s the right move all things considered. People have no idea what’s coming….

Before 1880, it was very easy to rewrite history. There weren’t photographs, so it was just a matter of burning books and controlling who gets published. Today, rewriting history requires algorithmic control and internet archive scrubbing. Two things happening at historic scales beneath your nose.

I don’t think people realize, if we don’t revolt immediately against the billionaires, 90% of us will not be alive in the next decade. Nobody is going to hear us or listen tho. Sorry Earth :(

I wish I had chosen the blue pill 😔. I relate more to Cypher than Neo sometimes 😚

Created on WeGPT.ai 🤣

Military on American soil, preventing the constitutionally protected rights for peaceful protests. It’s as authoritarian as it gets.

My podcast recommendation (today) is the 'Tech Won't Save Us' episode from two days ago, with Timmit Gebru (sorry, I have difficulty linking to it, but it's not tricky to find)

“Funny cuz it’s true…” 😮‍💨

Don’t play with laser pointers with your cats. That’s a form of inducing psychosis on a creature using artificial light. Kind of like we do to each other now with phone screens.

@markspringer.bsky.social hi, can we chat? It’s about your old twitter account

Remember what Einstein said — the people who created the problems, cannot solve them. Musk, Zuck, et al — they’ve created this problem. The only reason you can’t see a vision for a better digital existence is because they’re desperately holding a monopoly over all of you.

So much quickly happening in the background here! I'm please to say that I've had an enormous response from IT and management at police departments as well as those working in the surveillance tech space. It turns out a lot of people in law enforcement are uncomfortable with Flock Safety's model.

@lastweektonight.com I feel like this needs a Main Story treatment, badly.... within this specific framing of treason. youtu.be/Q8I333r9YhY?...

America once liberated Europe from a tyrannical rule that sought to take over the world. Will the world return the favor and liberate America now? 🤔

The key is you must not lose your mind in the time it takes you to find the real others in your situation. Now, we have a better chance youtu.be/1GCYsoZp1G0?...

@techaro.lol does this mean we’re on the good list?

Under Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill, you can write off 100% of the cost of your private jet now. So if you buy your $10M private jet, and pay a 37% tax rate — you can save $3.7 Million now. Which helps literally everyone. The RADICAL LEFT never gives Trump enough credit for this.

Trump not suing anybody who is claiming he’s on the list (most notably, Musk and AOC), is the most telling indictment of all. He’s guilty. They’d win in discovery.

🧵 Your App Updates Are Fake. And It’s Hurting Small Devs and Free Market competition. Salesforce, the owners of Slack, are deceptively churning out pointless nothing-updates to MILLIONS of users, sometimes twice-weekly, with cute LLM-generated change log text. Why? 👇🧵 #AI #LLM #Tech #Apps

Turning off push notifications for all social media helps a lot. At your device level. Their own settings pages don’t really honor your wishes.

“Cleaner.” 😉

I highly recommend Mountainhead on HBO. It’s the only film in human history where there is just a single villain. And the villain is never seen on screen. The villain is you. The viewer.

@mcuban.bsky.social please stop corresponding with these people. youtu.be/HGcpUxl_9Vg?...

Dunno if I’m gonna make it y’all. Just being honest. Anyone else feeling this?

Bill’s sacrifice only means anything if you, dear viewer, react to it with force — to resist and undo what has been happening to the free world and America. Immediately.

Perfectly normal song, nothing to be heard here. youtu.be/oOzlcUapGiQ?...

Greetings #AITools BlueSky! You’re probably hearing a lot about Reasoning agents that use Tools to solve problems like OpenAI’s new o3 and o4-Mini announcements. I want to introduce you to the first-movers in this paradigm 👇
