if you're reading all these articles as they come out and assuming the story is "these models are escaping containment and causing danger" and not "this is a PR campaign by companies desperate to build hype" I think you are very silly.

It keeps happening... It'd be great if these companies could spend a little bit more time on network security and a little less time vibe coding.

What's the difference between an apartment and a "residence"? About two million dollars.

I did in fact love the D (this is not a sentence I will say often)

Hoyts let @angharadyeo.bsky.social, @jesszam.bsky.social and I back in their D Box to watch Supergirl and while we loved the D, our feelings on Supergirl were mixed. Listen to the new episode of Sapphic AV Club now! (And please also subscribe)

I’m going to be on Life Matters on Radio National talking about kids and screens from 9:30

fuck webp. all my homies hate webp

This week I learned about severe femoral hernias, and I just don’t think it should be possible for one’s intestine to fall into their leg. Why should that be a possible thing? The body is a circus of horrors.

The rise of AI and homeschooling at the same time is … terrifying.

Using lists of three is not an "AI tell." It's a common trait in human writing because our brains biologically want to make sure there's always one thing to marry, one thing to fuck, and one thing to murder.

The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 is the Goldilocks of folding phones. Its reworked size is great for pockets and fuelling your TV obsession.

I’m just going to say it: medical misogyny is bad and a doctor’s ability to empathise equally with male and female patients should be part of the criteria for getting a medical license.

Somewhat surprisingly both @alicedkc.bsky.social & I enjoyed Spider-Man: Brand New Day a WHOLE dang lot.

Friendly neighbourhood movie snack

Petition to ban body worn cameras and pervert glasses from children’s play centres.

That was very anticlimactic

I just had an idea for the most Kotaku AU story ever and now I am sad that I can't just message @rhunwords.com and do it.

The main way in which AI has negatively impacted games industry jobs is not through actual automation of those jobs or even untrue claims about automation. It's by making capital unavailable because it's tied up in AI investments while also destroying the consumer base for video game hardware.

Hi! I'm looking to speak to anyone who is finding ways to resist/work around mandatory AI usage policies at work. Mostly games industry-related, but happy to speak to anyone adjacent as well! Published quotes can of course be anon if desired. DM me here or email at luke@aftermath.site, thanks!

My big question for over there is: will companies actually hire new people if ideation, concept art, and code are supplemented by AI? I think that's the danger to watch out for in Japan and China, generational knowledge loss as young people don't get jobs. I don't have data on this, just a concern.

I got asked about AI in games again! I think we underestimate how, while AI use is more rampant in the East than the West, our protections against it here are dramatically worse.

I really like the new Samsung Galaxy Z Fold8. youtube.com/shorts/c4tyo...

My favourite plant is dying and I'm real sad about it, tbh. Milky lived a good life, and she deserved better than to die like this :(

I’ve been watching Person Of Interest and it’s fascinating to watch it in the age of gen AI. Episode 4.15 about a search company that uses an agentic AI to make users more depressed to sell an advertiser’s drugs is particularly on the nose.

A 2bed, 2 bath 90sqm apartment with no car space for more than $1m? In this economy? Lol. Lmao, even.

Cannot believe Labor is going to find a new way to annoy and disappoint me
