I really wasn’t sure about spending 4hr watching a movie in theaters, but word is that Musk doesn’t want people to see it, and the Streisand Effect is filling me with motivation lol

The movie that Elon Musk doesn’t want anyone to see. Film director @alexgibneyfilm.bsky.social was interviewed about his new documentary about Musk by @davidsirota.com of @levernews.com.

I see this game, 'The Last Gaeltacht,' is getting a push in the Irish media at the moment. Sadly, it is crammed with AI slop. It's especially bad in this case, as this is precisely the kind of game that I could see schools allowing kids to play, due to it being ostensibly educational.

Anyone can be an 'autism expert' now, reports pioneering autist. "The term is effectively meaningless. In the ancient past only a tiny number of people were diagnosed as autism experts, but the field has expanded so much that many so-called experts show barely any sign of it at all, these days."

As a STEM professional, I have always worked with people who dropped out of a phd, or weren't able to finish because of their supervisor or matters outside of their control. It's not a big deal, there are very few jobs where it will be held against you. Hiring managers with phds know how it works

One bit of advice for new #PhDStudents... Remember the PhD isn't your whole life - even if you are led to believe that by faculty. Your mental and physical health always comes first. You are allowed to enjoy the next few years of your life, your life doesn't get put on hold by studying.

I had to deal with shitweasles like this all the way through college talking about nuclear power. "You're a scientist, and you're against science?" Niger is a country in africa where 35 million tonnes of radioactice mining silt is open to rain and wind, so France can have "clean" nuclear power.

We don't say a car crashed into a building like its a car's fault. A person drove into a building. It doesn't matter if they had their hands on the wheel or not, they are responsible. AI did not do this. A person did this. It's a person every time. A person is responsible, a person is accountable

Go on. Keep proving the point of the documentary, fellas.

Former strongly pro-AI academics are starting to change their tune as the world becomes increasingly filled with the slop they helped to advocate for. It's like raising kids honestly, they just have to learn things the hard way sometimes.

They warned us Mamdani would impose Sharia law. Instead, he unleashed the real threat: line dancing in Bryant Park.
