It’s been a while since I posted an update on my husband Edmund’s health. He has been in the hospital for over 8 weeks, plagued with several intertwined health issues. It went something like ... (Photo taken in the hospital after I gave him a plush cat since he missed our two black cats so much.)

Fidelity’s Director of Global Macro saying that the AI trade has been “dead money” for three months, and that it’s inflationary, meaning (as I’ve discussed multiple times) that the more debt they raise the more expensive debt becomes and the more they build data centers the more expensive it gets

Post ... Jurrien Timmer @TimmerFidelity X.com On the Al front, the trade has been dead money for more than 3 months now. The metrics I am following (token expenditures and GPU lease rates) are all flat to down. The price of memory (DRAM) seems to be the only thing that is still going up.

NEW: OpenAI took 20 million ChatGPT responses and had one of its experts search for chunks of text—specifically chunks of 25 words in a row- that were identical between ChatGPT’s responses and a news article. They found more than 400,000 of these 25-word overlaps between ChatGPT and our articles.

AI exec: We may have pulled off “the largest theft of labor in human history.”

Documents from our lawsuit reveal how tech leaders talk when they think no one is listening.

Just because this dude has the mental capacity of a handbag filled with dogshit doesn't mean other people can't figure this stuff out, the "AI" dudes aren't THAT smart, they're just horny accelerationist nerds who don't see what the problem killing off 90% of the population is, they can be stopped

I know some people who have had v. bad experiences with hospital care but the techs, nurses and doctors taking care of Edmund are great. I wish I could wave a magic wand to give them a salary increase, better hours, and two more weeks of vacation!
