Lina Khan should be the next attorney general.

Good point, but LLMs are both ubiquitous and the public face of “AI.” I think it’s fair to assign them a decent share of the blame for overpromising and underdelivering.

Yeah, OpenAI, ChatGPT, and Sam Altman have no relevance to AI LLMs. No idea what I was thinking.

You mean the multi-billion dollar, souped-up autocorrect might not actually be able to replace the human workforce? I am shocked, shocked I say!

Do you think Sam Altman might have… gasp lied to his investors about its capabilities?

Finally some good news. The discovery of the Prothean ruins will bring the entire world together.

I’ll admit I don’t understand their internal politics, but Poland is unfathomably based. If Russia actually tries to attack them, I half expect them to roll out Metal Gears and Gundams they’ve been working on for decades in secrecy.

Tech company creates best search engine —-> world domination —> becomes VC company in tech trench coat —-> destroy search engine to prop up bad investments in artificial intelligence advanced chatbots

Billions and billions invested to produce accuracy slightly less than flipping a coin.

At first, they denied it—“OpenAI chief technology officer Mira Murati said the company did not pattern any ChatGPT voices on Johansson’s sultry computer voice in the movie,” but Altman and other OpenAI guys had let the cat out the bag on Twitter

They’re not just deliberately using her voice; they’re deliberately lying about it and bragging about what really happened in public. They’ll pay some nuisance settlement that’s a small fraction of their profit.

That’s how they treat an a list actress. Imagine how they treat everyone else. You don’t get a settlement. You just get fucked.

Would you agree that Bobby Kennedy would draw more voters from Trump as it stands?

A “conspiracy theorist” is rejected on the left until government-sanctioned evidence is provided. The right doesn’t have that constraint.

Does everyone hate Bobby Kennedy so much that they’ll side with Facebook and Zuckerberg over a career environmental attorney because he’s running for president?

Incredibly speculative, but this could also be Elon’s Saudi investors’ plan to blow up the EV market in America. If the charging infrastructure becomes unreliable, it kills the entire market.

The “Boring Company” killed light rail in several cities with empty promises. The Saudis bailed out his purchase of Twitter once.

Again speculative, but Elon and the Saudis working together checks a lot of boxes.

Unions are the only way to protect workers. The wealth extraction class only cares about numbers. Collective action can threaten their bottom line and force them to the negotiating table.

Are there whataboutism arguments? Yes, many.

Has Chinese intelligence lost access to a treasure trove of US data? Yes.

Are US kids’ already dwindling attention spans going to be saved from exposure to the TikTok algorithm? Yes.

I fail to see how this is a bad thing.

The dead internet theory. The “conspiracy theory” that’s now becoming an inevitable reality.

Behold my meaty, majestic tentacles. This better not awaken anything in me…

The little-known genocide assistance exception to “don’t be evil.” You have to read the fine print these days.

It’s all so incredibly gross. Using “AI” to undress someone you know is extremely fucked up. Please don’t do that.

A bad economy and uncertain future make people very afraid. It’s tempting to stick your head in the sand, blame all your problems on a specific demographic, then trust dear leader will punish the people that made you scared.

It’s completely divorced from reality, but reality sucks right now. People are scared. They’re taking the blue pill to feel better and pretend the horror all around them isn’t happening. They won’t max out their credit cards and become homeless. Dear Leader will fix things before that happens.

Beware, terminally incompetent interns everywhere. Doing something incredibly damaging to your company over social media on your first day is officially a job that’s been taken by AI.
