Frequently glossobuccalic. Knows just enough to be a danger to himself and others in a surprising number of areas. I'm not overweight, I'm underheight. "AI" is marketing hype, machine learning is the technology, copyright theft is the business model.
I've never used ChatGPT. If I'm absolutely honest, although I've heard of Claude, I'm not 100% sure what it is. I've never knowingly used an #AI tool. To me, this post reads like 'If pre-sliced cheese was suddenly banned, would you even know how to slice cheese manually?'

What a surprise. The man who wants AIs to take the jobs of humans doesn't want his job to be done by an AI. www.businessinsider.com/sam-altman-a...
Sam Altman says people don’t really want an AI to act as CEO: ‘I think the world wants to know about the person’
OpenAI CEO Sam Altman said he shifted his views about AI-related layoffs in part because he has seen how much humans value themselves over AI.

A man who publicly was doing something which, when done wrong, can cause graft-vs-host disease, an autoimmune disease which can attack, among other things, your GI tract, now has an autoimmune disease which is attacking his GI tract. What a coincidence.

Also: HAWK’s entire foundation was very new—just 4-5 years old, an infant by cryptographic measures! Most brand-new cryptography gets broken or severely weakened before long. This is normal and good. Now AI will help speed up that process more systematically.
Filippo Valsorda@filippo.abyssdomain.expert · last wk.I'm seeing folks draw the wrong conclusion (in good faith or not) from the HAWK attack. HAWK is a scheme that 1. cryptographers were suspicious of and 2. was still in the assessment process. A break is GOOD. It means the process is useful, and it INCREASES confidence in the selected algorithms.
I’m all for paying more tax to fix social care and the NHS as long as the private equity parasites that have infected both are eradicated. What I’m not up for is paying more tax to line the pockets of shareholders of companies that have been invited to enshitify our essential public services.
Jeanne Geneviève Garnerin (1775–1847) was a French balloonist and parachutist. She was the first to ascend solo and the first woman to make a parachute descent from an altitude of 900 metres (3,000 ft) on 12 October 1799. #CelebratingWomen

This disingenuous commentary doesn’t help anyone. Frauds start unravelling pretty quickly. That you apparently cannot afford to put your oven or treat yourself is quickly undermined by the question “so why are you spending £50 per week on petrol?” Then, it turns out, she has an agent and /1
Ash@queerash.bsky.social · 2w agoElaine in this article "can't remember the last time she used her oven" but also spends £200 a month on petrol (so driving probably ~50 miles a day?) (she's also a professional old person; she was on Good Morning Britain last year, and then also at the Nov budget, and the year before lmao)
