Making a Claude plugin named Bill Gates that makes Claude put a dollar in the swear jar every time it says "gate".

That criticism holds a ton more weight with me. All I saw on my feed was a bunch of people reposting that the developer said they use it for coding and being like "I wash my hands of this, because I am AI-free!"

The problem with Outlier is that they also use LLMs for design, art and writing. The graphic design of the game, a lot of the copywriting in it and many features do not originate with humans. They don't give a fuck about their users, setting up the project as the next game to be sold to the NYT.

My Bluesky feed is currently full of outrage about some game called "Outlier" using LLMs in development and - as someone who is genuinely extremely critical of GenAI in art, writing, anything creative: I have bad news for y'all who are using literally any software anywhere, including this site.

Amazing to live in a country where the secret police are handling inter-chud beefs. It's like the Night of Long Knives playing out in the parking lot of a Dollar General.

Dolly Parton rose from poverty to stardom. She gave $500 to every student in her hometown who finished high school; she built hospitals & bald eagle preserves; her Imagination Library has gifted 300 million books to children. Roger Ebert met her and came away thinking she was a literal angel. RIP.

“In Dallas for the premier of '9 to 5', I had an uncanny experience, and on the plane home to Chicago I confessed it to Siskel: I had been granted a private half hour with Dolly Parton, and as we spoke I was filled with a strange ethereal grace. This was not spiritual, nor was it sexual. It was healing and comforting. Gene listened and said, "Roger, I felt the exact same thing during my interview with her." We looked at each other. What did this mean? Neither one of us ever felt that feeling again. From time to time we would refer to it in wonder.”

Dolly Partons IMAGINATION LIBRARY

Dear Imagination Library Graduate,

My, how time flies. It seems it was only yesterday when your family and friends read you your first story. You were just a baby. Now you're five years old and about to go to school. How exciting!
This may be your last book from my Imagination Library but you have to promise me you will keep on reading. If you go to your local public library you will find a great number of books just for kids your age. Every book is a treasure and every time you open one up you will meet new friends and take wonderful journeys to magical places.
I hope you have a great time in school. I bet your school will even have a library where you can check out books. You and all of your friends are very special. There is no limit to what you can do or how far you can go.

Just remember the lessons my family taught me - dream big dreams; learn everything you can learn; and care for all those who care for you. You do all of these things and you can be anyone you want to be.

You are terrific, and remember...
I Will Always Love You,
Dolly

Regarding You Know Who, you can justify all you want but you can't erase the fact that he platformed a guy whose aunt once visited Berlin and walked the very same streets that Hitler walked. If you're OK with that kind of fascism you can see yourself out.
