What I don’t understand is how these people didn’t think they would be caught, with potentially career-ending consequences? What is the series of steps that leads someone to do this, and how stupid do you need to be?

What makes this worse than the financial crisis of 2008 is that you can’t live in a GPU once the crash happens.

When this was first posted I too was curious about the book series. It appears that nearly every book in the series is authored by academics affiliated with Indian universities. Modi’s government has promoted and invested heavily in AI.

I call bullshit on Daniel K. That backtracking is so obviously ex-post-facto cover-your-ass woopsie-doopsie. Expect more of it as we get closer to whatever new “median” he has suddenly claimed. It’s going to be fun to watch.

I have no doubt that a chatbot would be just as effective at doing Liuson’s job, if not moreso. Not because chatbots are good, but because Liuson is so bad at her job.

People are often overly confident about their imperviousness to mental illness. In fact I think that --given the right cues – we’re all more vulnerable to mental illness than we’d like to think.

Baldur Bjarnason wrote about this recently. He talked about how chatbots are incentivizing and encouraging a sort of “self-experimentation” that exposes us to psychological risks we aren’t even aware of. Risks that no amount of willpower or intelligence will help you avoid. In fact, the more intelligent you are, the more likely you may be to fall into the traps laid in front of you, because your intelligence helps you rationalize your experiences.

ChatGPT tells prompter that he’s brilliant for his literal “shit on a stick” business plan.

Why do AI company logos look like buttholes?

(Blog post written by a crypto-turned-AI bro, but the observation is amusing.)

Maybe Elon can install Grok as the copilot of his private jets.

Check out the by-line. Big surprise!

“Thought process”

“Intuitively”

“Figured out”

“Thought path”

I miss the days when the consensus reaction to Blake Lemoine was to point and laugh. Now the people anthropomorphizing linear algebra are being taken far too seriously.

As a fellow Usenet junkie from way back, now I’m curious which newsgroups Yarvin hung out in.

Yeah, it was a brain fart.

I always tune into Casey Newton and Kevin Roose’s podcast to get my latest fix of AI hype, now that they’ve moved on from crypto hype and multiverse hype. Can’t wait to see what the next hype cycle will bring!

Hilarious. How much do you want to bet they vibe-coded the whole app.

Amazing how many awful things are orange.

I’m fine with the name. It’s a good signifier that shit code has been written.
