A rich person can never be held accountable. Therefore, a rich person must never make a societal decision

> This proposal does not go into detail about the many problems that LLM have caused to society, workers, the environment. It goes without saying that all these ills are fundamentally opposed to the humanist spirit of GNOME. blogs.gnome.org/alatiera/202...

The GNOME LLM Policy That I Want
KDE is on the news because of a controversial proposal to define an official “AI” (LLM) policy (archived link). Other projects have tried their hand at similar policies and stances but, in my opinion,...

The image is of a four panel comic.
In the first panel we see Sarah, the protagonist, next to a stick figure labeled “AI”. The stick figure says, “my outputs look just like yours now.”
The second panel zooms in on Sarah’s face. Above her we see text reading “I think”.
The third panel zooms in closer on Sarah’s face. Text above her reads “you missed”.
The fourth panel shows Sarah drawing happily in a sunlit room. The text above her reads “the point”.

Still patiently waiting to be "left behind" by AI rather than it chasing me across every damn space like a slasher in a low budget flick.

LOSER 3.0 is now available! I’m very proud that today’s release includes a new Theme system focused on improving the game for people with color blindness 💙 it’s not good software if it’s not inclusive. Download and play LOSER for free: apps.apple.com/us/app/loser...

You’ve gotta use AI because it’s the future. But also it’ll take your job. But also it’ll create a paradise on earth and solve most of our problems. But also it’ll end humanity soon. But also you’ll get left behind if you don’t use it right now.

This is the main reason I'm so angry about the "AI" bubble. All this enormous effort could have been spent combatting the climate crisis and the opportunity cost of your fucking chatbot is going to be the very climate we live in Imagine what we could have done with those 3 trillion dollars?

Can’t stop thinking about this. Not just bc it’s such an abhorrent idea but also this is THE GUY that’s trying to pitch America on AI writ large and he’s so blind to the public interest he thought this was somehow appealing

My god. These people. They continuously conflate public health advice with tyrannical mandates and commands. Yes, Metaxas can do whatever he wants. Go jog until you collapse in a coughing heap if you want to, I say! But public health officials have a responsibility to give the best recommendations.

I am having feelings today.
A four-cell comic, known as the drowning meme.

The first cell has a hand just above water with the word “society” next to it.

Second cell has a hand approaching, could it be there to help?

Instead in the next cell, it gets a high-five along with the quote “it’s just a tool!”.

The last cell shows the hand now nearly submerged.

People who spiral out overusing LLM chatbots are really just experiencing the kind of brain-damaging stream of unconditional validation that’s always been the norm for the hyper-wealthy, which explains a lot.

A thread, because things are feeling rough at present. 🧵👇 I'm not quite sure where to go or what to do. I'm watching my peers slowly burn out, go quiet, quit the industry, or struggle on hoping it'll get better in time. Even if the storm is weathered, what comes out the other side?

Talked with a few folks inside of AI labs (OpenAI, Anthropic) about what they think of the future of software engineering. The “closer” to shipping production code engineers are, the less they believe software engineering will be “solved” fully by AI. The opposite true as well

I hypothesize a significant portion of harm is caused by mostly well-intentioned people convincing themselves that something serious is actually “not that big of a deal.”

You gotta have your calculator write a test suite for every permutation, orchestrate a bunch of sub-calculators, and run in a loop until it achieves high confidence, bro. Duh. /s

When I write code, it achieves two goals: The obvious goal - the code we get that run and does a thing. The less obvious goal - my own knowledge of that code, which enables me to debug, improve, and expand it in the future.
