say what you will about AI, always-on voice recording and auto dictation has been a game changer for my workflows. Save post and close app. Yeah Footlong meatball sub on white. No veggies. Don't toast it. Ranch and barbecue sauce. Yeah, ranch and bargecue sauce. More. More. Little more please

Look, the REAL way to Mars is by tunnel. Only geniuses such as Elon Musk realize this.
This is an important point. Corporate America has been running to create operational mechanisms of least liability for decades now. AI is just the latest front on a concerted effort by corporations to block themselves from being sued.
Eryk Salvaggio@eryk.bsky.social · 2w agoSeeding the “maybe our model is exhibiting self-awareness?” narrative to obliterate the “OpenAI is a negligent and potentially criminal actor” narrative is a reputation management move exclusive to this industry. Not a stunt, but a desperate need to control the narrative.
"Do the thing you can do instead of beating yourself up over not doing the thing you're not doing" is honestly life-changing, even life-saving, advice.
Leiracal@leiracal.bsky.social · 12mo agoThis concept was introduced to me as "run the dishwasher twice" and was an important part of my executive functioning recovery as well as my path to self-acceptance.
behold!!! I have invented and built the space shuttle myself!
Airbus is putting its data beyond America's reach. They will run on Scaleway, a French provider, instead. A US law lets American authorities request data held by US firms, including data stored in servers outside the country. Europe is slowly trying to lean less on American technology.

I have definitely noticed an uptick in deep backlist sales from the OSU Press list. It's not the perpetual bestsellers but one-offs from decades ago that even I, after seven years at the press, have barely heard of. www.404media.co/ai-companies...

It really feels like we're gonna reach a point where everyone is basically chased off the internet and it will remain a relic dominated by slop and bots. Where nothing of value can exist without being drowned out by garbage.
If you’re wondering why UK press has suddenly woken up to Farage, please read this. It’s because: Brexit. The r/w press refused to scrutinise the money behind Farage & the lawsuit against me scared off the rest. But this isn’t a new scandal. It’s the same one I’ve been reporting on for a decade

The problem is they got AI to read everything but they forgot to tell it "don't believe everything you read"
Such a good piece: "the logic of AI, of fascism, of sexism, of racism": "That is, because things look a certain way, that therefore they are a certain way. Internal properties are wrongly derived from their superficial appearance." The 'imitation game'...the origins of AI fakery
