SILICON VALLEY - The CEOs of OpenAI, Anthropic, and GrokAI have released a statement agreeing that claiming artificial intelligence "could potentially kill all humans" sounds much more awesome than just admitting that they blew a fortune on glorified chatbots.

This weeks RSA is online! OK I goofed last week and managed to not play the regularly scheduled last track and went straight to the "bonus" track. Oops. Well, the J Dead track has been put back into the inbox and I'll get to it soon! synthetic.org www.youtube.com/@RealSynthet...
It was a awesome moment today when Jean Chretien (92), our PM on 9/11 said at our memorial in NL: "Don't mistake our generosity for weakness." The Orange dipshit (80) fell asleep at his.
Switched my NNTP provider from the US to NL. I think the only tech money I'm sending south is my Google Drive account.
This weeks RSA is online! A happy Labour day to us all in North America where we celebrate the workers right we have that are slowly eroding! This week we've got a great collection of new stuff to share, and a remastered favourite! synthetic.org www.youtube.com/@RealSynthet...

Asahi SouKai Cola. Interesting aftertaste, almost like coke and whiskey. No caffeine. Not bad.
I know of a place you can get a golden shower. Alert Funker Vogt immediately.
Buy Matts stuff or he'll steal your Teddy Bear.

HUSBAND: she handwashes all of her bras in a big pot and then asks ‘who’s hungry for some titty soup?’ DIVORCE LAWYER: my god
This weeks RSA is online! Completely back on my feet and as usual when I'm on the mend I have more time to sit in front of the computer and work on RSA. I'm proud of all of my shows (1402 so far!) but this is a good one. synthetic.org www.youtube.com/@RealSynthet...
Next up from Japan. Strawberry coke. Insanely sweet. Like drinking coke flavoured strawberry syrup. I need to go talk to Wilford Brimley about my Diabeetus now. He what? In 2020? Shit.
Todd's on the imported soda train again. Raw Pepsi. I think the gimmick is the flavourings aren't heated? Couldn't tell the difference really. But it was good.

PP should be up there too, but I got a sensible chuckle outta this.
This weeks RSA is online! Sorry for the lateness this week, I was sick all weekend and hasn't quite gotten the show finished by then. But it up for everyone now, and I'm going to cut this short so I can go back to the couch for a bit. synthetic.org www.youtube.com/@RealSynthet...
