never thought short form video would be able to capture a type of humor i can only describe as “the far side-esque” but this comes close.

airbnb I’m staying at unintentionally created the toughest punk album cover of 2027

This is a great album that flew way under the radar last year, I just discovered it today and can’t find a single review. It’s a real return to form… if you liked their older stuff, you will like this open.spotify.com/album/6h7d3b...

Interesting idea to pick someone who really wanted to be Fed Chair but had no interest in economic forecasting or monetary policy.

I think the divide between crazy people who refuse to use AI for anything, people who use chatbots naively for everything, and people who know how to use LLMs for research and building effectively will get wider and wider and wider.

Omg not Hank Green using AI for research and calling to his “bad habit” 💀😭🤡

Is this a typo for yards, or have historians finally explained the mysterious giant rocks that were still crashing out of the sky in the 1700s

harsh but fair

This kind of 1970s culture is a sweet spot for AI slop, because Millennials have romanticized it so much that our fake nostalgia is almost as blinding as Gen X’s real nostalgia

Debbie Harry and Suzi Quatro by Ebet Roberts 1977 💛

as a kid i imagined the typical CEO as being this cigar-chomping man in a pinstripe suit yelling "get those numbers up, no excuses" actually so many of them are just fad-chasing losers

My “It’s easy to kill our robot with a gun or a knife” promotional diagram has people asking a lot of questions already answered by the diagram.

lol at this promotional graphic presumably? put out by the company

step change in visual reasoning

Another one here. Performance is choppy and the built-in threejs toon shader does a lot of the heavy lifting, but the coherence of the world is blowing me away. They're also claiming Opus 5, no assets, all drawn from primitives. This is a real step change from last month. github.com/Kenton-GMI/s...

cannot overstate how much of people being put off of AI is specifically copilot’s fault

Post coding agents, it's amazing to realize how "I need to do this myself because I know what I want" meant exactly the opposite. You did not know what you wanted, that's why you can't verbalize it. You only know that if you type and mechanically follow your intuition, you will get where you want.

i think a lot of studios are realizing that they've just been trying way too hard by making actual tv shows, movies, etc and that a terrifying number of people just want absolute lowest-investment dogshit they can use to completely zone out

Nick (derogatory) ✨@slothropsmap.bsky.social · last wk.

I can confirm that studios are obsessed with these and with getting them right. The success of YouTube shorts and, like, TikTok, Instagram, et al has caused something close to panic. A deluge is coming.

the written record of antiquity, for reasons I hope are obvious, over represents the blinkered moral perspectives of that day's most powerful people. you should take the care with generalizing from their opinions that you'd want a foreigner to take if a tech CEO was asked about your country's morals

Your AI assistant just suggested an npm package. It looks real, it's well-named, it solves your exact problem. It also never existed until an attacker registered the name & filled it with malware. That's slopsquatting. 🧵

I agree that it costs less to distill stuff, and I agree that’s a business problem for Anthropic. But that’s business, baby. Costs less to make a knock off iPhone after seeing it made in a local factory too. Get good at marketing, not regulatory capture. Win the consumer, not the oligarch. <fin>

Vera Rubin is a worthy namesake for this NVIDIA platform, but when I see it on a news feed, my first thought is that Vera Bradley has done some bizarre tech deal $NVDA $VRA

I'm curious about this ritual of printing boilerplate PR replies, is it just a courtesy to preserve access? Is it covering some legal base or satisfying a journalistic principle? It's only fair to print *substantive* responses, but why waste readers' time with empty ones?

Forget the North Beach or Greenwich Village: the place where America's misfits and kooks met each other in the 1950s was in the personal ads in the back of the Saturday Review.

i think it would be really funny if oracle turns out to be the only hyperscaler to get blown out by all this
