i'm sympathetic to the concerns if not all the framings re AR glasses but also i wish i didn't have to be so afraid of using glasses *with no camera at all* just to have a built in screen so i can walk while i work bcz what if someone confuses them and gets aggressive bcz they think i'm recording
The thing that really butters my biscuits is THESE PEOPLE EXISTED. WE KNOW HOW IT WENT FOR THEM (poorly) AND YET SO MANY PEOPLE ARE ADAMANT TO LEARN ABSOLUTELY NO LESSONS!!
I see people taking great pride in the fact that they don’t use AI for work and don’t have AI experience. Some even thinking it will give them an edge? Imagine 30 years ago declaring: “I’ll be able to do my job without the internet or a computer” before anyone knew how encompassing it would be.
checked in on an old ex just outta curiosity and apparently they’re an ai vegan now which is apparently also a thing people have decided to call themselves see also they got hella pissed about masking and testing requirements and decided they were too autistic to follow the rules in 2020 manhattan

Personally, I can do my job without the sycophancy nexus, so I’ll be ok I think… but I see a lot of people slowly sliding into this stuff
so called "sub"urbs will throw such a fit when their cities try and domme them 🙄
WE MIGHT GET A WASHER AND DRYER TOMORROW I MAY HAVE CLEAN CLOTHES AND BEDDING RELIABLY AGAIN FOR THE FIRST TIME IN NEARLY A YEAR
every home needs a timesharing minicomputer built into the furniture, olivetti-style
I hate this timeline & that I had to write this essay. I hate AI companies & LLMs & the randos who are now using "AI detectors" (also AI!) to smear authors they dislike: on Medium (friend link): juliaserano.medium.com/on-em-dashes... & Substack (no paywall): juliaserano.substack.com/p/on-em-dash...
On em-dashes and “AI detectors”
and the many reasons why I don’t and won’t use LLMs
juliaserano.medium.com
a general note as well: something being written by AI or not does not change the validity of the underlying information it's a non-argument, an inversion of an appeal to authority
...much of what I say reiterates points other writers have made about the scourge of LLMs & AI writing. but I don't think any of us (writers or general public) are prepared for how bad actors are about to wield false accusations against writers they dislike: juliaserano.medium.com/on-em-dashes...
Like. Do we WANT a toxic culture of doubling down, coverups, & never admitting mistakes? Because "any admission of error can fuck you up worse than pretending you never messed up at all" is how you GET a toxic culture of doubling down, coverups, & never admitting mistakes.
I don't approve of what this director did, but I do understand it
in insane local news, the 26 year old director of a rocky horror production was arrested for sending threatening messages to himself in order to get the play shut down bc he didn’t want to deal with cast drama www.mynbc5.com/article/rock...
we should all get to have really dope build farms like i wish we had digital commons at the compute layer more i understand so many parts of why we don't but i also like idk too much of it is we just don't try at it too much and that makes me a lil sad

the rust go zig continuum what’s the other dimension i wanna have a political alignment chart!!!!!
indeed!!! and while unfortunate for the world in general it is still adequately suitable for my potential offering that go is also adequately popular (i am unlikely to want to work w/any zig people just as much as they're likely uninterested in working w/me but i'm not opposed on principle!!!!)
periodic reminder of the generational talent that is james mickens and this particular work of art of his
thinking about lil short term potential feasible services i could offer if next phase of stuff works out: would ppl be interested in a TLA+ models from impls as a (paid!) service thing??? this is still at *least* a few weeks out but maybe longer but it should be manageable for certain targets
have to supervise a fourway merge and i just can i just not????? oh wait ... i *could* just not... that's an ACTUAL option... what if i refactor this shit into like... modules and stuff and things????????? hrmmmmmmm

"Cognitive surrender" or whatever is a skill issue. I offload cognition to the machine so I can do EVEN BIGGER COGNITIONS!
