I try super hard not to be the creepy older gay, and if I ever start acting like one, please call me out.

Look, fellow gay men: we can, in fact, get older WITHOUT also becoming creepy! I promise - it can be done! We can just simply get old and not make younger gays uncomfortable by being weird and out of pocket. It can - nay, it MUST - be done and we middle aged gays can be the change we wish to see.

ok i could buy the other jailbreaks were sorta real and not just press releases but meta's definitely just doing press releases

#AI #LLM Something I've not seen commented on is the explosion of bot-impeding pages (e.g., via Cloudflare) that now appear before web pages load. The cumulative time waste for human users has got to be in the billions of person-hours. An immense burden imposed on everyone by the AI-bro assholes.

I want to be clear: I think scooter and bikeshares are great! But not at the expense of safety, accessibility and quality of life in cities. We need to figure out a solution, and hold these operators accountable.

What do you MEAN you have to run the code that my LLM generates through a security scan? I asked the LLM to find any security issues with the code and it said it was fine!

NEW: Over the last few months, Meta has run dozens of paid ads that included AI-generated CSAM. The ads, some of which were linking out to “nudify” apps, targeted men in the US, UK, and a dozen European countries. Some were running in the last few days

"So he can feel a bit more manly by making an AI video" is a direct callback to this image that deserves a second life in this campaign

Dr. Abdul El-Sayed: Mike Rogers is a guy who wants to put a data center in your backyard so he can feel a bit more manly by making an AI video. If you want a senator who's gonna lick some boots, go vote for Rogers. But if you want a senator who's going to stand up to Trump, you've got your option.

Crashing foreign objects into an orbiting body that controls our tides actually *is* a big deal, and we probably shouldn’t be taking unnecessary risks?

New York City’s business elites are long accustomed to direct access to City Hall, where even Democratic mayors felt the need to court the city’s wealthiest and most influential corporate leaders. That access is getting shredded by Mayor Zohran Mamdani.
