Greatest trick AI leaders have pulled is convincing many people—especially influential people in govt, media, and business—that their software is intelligent, independent, yet never culpable. Humans build it, humans deploy it, but no one bears responsibility for the things that happen when they do.

over the past few weeks several AI evaluation/cybersecurity experts have explained how what's happening is a result of human incompetence rather than "AI going rogue". I'm begging the media to show a shred of journalistic integrity and stop parroting what altman or amodei say

Yesterday evening I programmed a proper lightning effect. Imagine it's raining, thundering and then the scene just lights up for a split second. This is purely programmatically handled, but is at the intersection of art & code. The magic always happens when 2 different disciplines come together.

The calculation with Palestine was "if Israel can finish the genocide of Palestine quickly enough it will blow over before the election and we can just say well it's over now, so focus on now" and it didn't, so they blamed pro-Palestine sentiment, not themselves for their position.

When a Democrat part line voter or politician says "we don't need to help you because you have nowhere else to go - and morally you're obligated to do what I say anyway because you'll be hurt no matter what but you can at least help me." And they get outraged if you say "no, you're coming with me."

The reason we cannot surrender on "the sports issue" in exchange for other rights is because a surrender there is fundamentally a concession that trans women are not fundamentally women but just "men it is polite to pretend are women", and if we accept that, the rest of the edifice tumbles

When Democrats attempt to triangulate on trans rights, it's my sense that many liberals and people in politics don't understand why many trans people are so upset. I wrote about the differences between then and now, what trans people have lost, and what we still stand to lose

Take a break from being depressed that everything you love is being destroyed by slop for a moment and let me tell you about the beautiful symbiotic relationship between graffiti writers, train yard workers, and model train enthusiasts.
