ai—by which I mean a fairly broad set of technologies based around pattern recognition—may have a future as a specialized tool for niche analysis. generative ai is basically all garbage, resource intensive, and accessible now largely due to VC bucks subsidizing it in hopes of a business model

Jacob Rees-Mogg, the most stereotypically Tory conservative man of the 21st Century, responded to Suella Braverman with a long-form video criticizing her position and rejecting a race-based theory of Englishness, and in response has been ratioed by the increasingly feral British online far-right.

Disney bought Fox in 2019 so they could compete with Netflix. Since then they have laid off at least 7000 people, jacked up prices, repeatedly introduced ads until they're on every tier, and only last year turned their first streaming profit. The mergers haven't been good for anyone.

GPT-4 was accompanied by fear of imminent job loss, and Altman predicted 100 million jobs lost due to GPT-5. And GPT-5 was pushed back several times, but the predictions/vague allusions/not-so-vague allusions didn't stop. Plenty of genuine fear preceding that release too.

It's early days! But also it's so late. If you use it you'll be among the elite few at the cutting edge, but if you don't you're falling behind the new normal. You need to be using AI in every aspect of your life unless your CFO looked at the bill lately in which case don't.

We noticed the trucks that had AI menus n photos getting less traction n patronage than others, and while I usually wouldn’t wish failure on anyone, I hope attendees on the whole showed n voiced their disapproval of it, especially at such an artist-supported, creatively-led event as this was.

The accounting is in: In Oregon there are 111 data centers. The TOTAL number of people employed at data centers is just 2,630, or 0.1% of the labor force. Those 100 data centers consumer 23% of all electricity used in Oregon. Meanwhile, electricity rates skyrocket as more centers are built.

Oregon data centers by the numbers: 111 facilities consume nearly one-quarter of state’s power, according to new report

The problem is that "while you weren't looking the tech industry was comprehensively taken over by a cult based around a piece of Harry Potter fanfic" is self-evidently an absolutely ridiculous claim that can't possibly have happened, which is a real problem given that it 100% did happen.
