Good luck finding anyone willing to take that bet.

Apocalyptic beliefs, amplified by apocalyptic AI

Given the CEO’s tweets, this does not surprise me.

It’s been quite a while, over 20 years, but Dog Eat Dog at a local venue was a blast. They brought a huuuuge bottle of martini and went absolutely wild. One of the best, funnest shows I ever attended.

Fair point, no argument here! Can’t wait for it all to implode, I’ve got a shopping list ready for when it does :)

You are just stuck choosing between different flavors of shit

Or self-hosting your shit. Or at least find a friend who does…

yes, that’s the only option left if one really wants to protest a post :D

The evolution of menopause and the mathematical impossibility of population growth are two gaping holes in the hypothesis that Paleolithic humans died at 25. Available data from modern hunter-gatherer societies also contradict the hypothesis that prehistoric humans all died very young: members of these groups who live to reach puberty have life expectancies between 60 and 70 years.

Is this about hiding the downvote count, or the downvote button?

On my solo instance I disabled downvoting. Reason for this was not long before setting up the instance, I read an article how downvoting stimulates some negative mental effects. Since then, there may have been one or two posts or comments that I actually wanted to downvote, but it’s been a while. If a post or comment rubs me the wrong way, I just move on now.

Still glad I did, couldn’t go back to an instance with downvotes.

Thanks for the explanation!!

If competent people in so many departments got purged, can we still call this incompetent? I think it’s about time we move over to malice.

not a spanish speaker in any way but I wonder: shouldn’t the adjective “naranja” follow as well?

Back in the day Morrowind on a Twilight disc. I’m not into fantasy at all, but that game took me for a spin that lasted many years.

I thought this was about surplus value, not even mentioned.

The Savage Empire, a game I played a lot as a kid.

On Friday afternoon, Anthropic learned that the Pentagon still wanted to use the company’s AI to analyze bulk data collected from Americans. That could include information such as the questions you ask your favorite chatbot, your Google search history, your GPS-tracked movements, and your credit-card transactions, all of which could be cross-referenced with other details about your life.

So that’s what OpenAI will now do for them…

Anthropic had not argued that such weapons should not exist. To the contrary, the company had offered to work directly with the Pentagon to improve their reliability.

…

this impasse over autonomous weapons could be resolved if the Pentagon would simply promise to keep the company’s AI in the cloud, and out of the weapons themselves.

djeez… Anthropic does not come off as nice as before

• Ramones - Ramones (1976)
• The Stooges - The Stooges (1969)

Agreed! As a doom metal and stoner rock fan, I’m hard-pressed not to name a band from those genres not influenced by the album or the band.
