I do not believe LLMs are conscious or remotely have the capacity to be conscious but if it increases social pressure against using them then yes Clippy is alive.

honestly some of the most apocalyptic impacts of "AI" will be shit like this, and most of the doomsday dipshits predicting SkyNet can't be bothered to notice or care

For the largest health insurer in the US, AI's error rate is like a feature, not a bug.

One of the unexpected benefits of transitioning? Running into people I haven't seen in a bit, and watch as they process how I know them, but they don't recognize me at all. Conversely, getting introduced to someone I do know, but don't like, and successfully bolt away before they put it together.

Easy to forget how, well, Portland, Portland is living in it until a big fancy publisher uses Tender Loving Empire as a notable benchmark of a “quirky boutique” in town. For tourists, makes sense, it is a quirky boutique version of a Made In Oregon store….
Text from a Conde nest, travel article describing the store, tender, loving, empire as quirky.

He is risen
Star Trek The Search for Spock scene. Our Lord and Savior Spock is pictured in a white robe. He stands surrounded by his shipmates who are all older here than they were in the TV show. Sulu is touching Spock's chest for some reason and he's smiling. Uhura, Chekov, Scotty, and Bones also all seem thrilled to see him. Despite being surrounded by friends, Spock is staring only at Kirk, for obvious reasons.

One of the things that is totally lost on Carville is that conservatives will never believe that you aren’t secretly connected with <insert marginalized group>. It’s just that when you trash them, you send the message that you won’t fight for what you believe in and you’re a fake piece of shit.

These executive orders on banning federally funded entities from recognizing trans people or disallowing them from using the bathroom are not self-executing or immediately enforceable. They require formal rule making at a minimum. They are a scare tactic. Ignore and do not comply in advance.

And that's the the crux of the problem. When my computer crashes, it stops working. When there's a render error, I can see it. Hell, if my heat stops working - my heat stopped working. LLMs appear to "work" all the time, and the failure mode is only experienced later as real-life consequences.
