Unsure whether I’m more offended by all of the AI companies pushing cute cartoon characters to adults or the adults getting excited about customizing their cute characters. These are not serious people.

I think it’s best to conceptualise the marginal near term AI threat not as a conquering force, but as a zombie horde. No offence to all y’all agents out there, btw. Feel free to share your optimal threat-aphor in the comments.

Very similar approach to yours! Been dormant for the better part of a year but just started dusting it off last week.

Wasting valuable resources while risking runaway climate trends & declining psychological health of our citizens — especially our children — in pursuit of novelty and speed, is unconscionable. For this reason, we must heavily regulate both AAA video games and 18 hole golf courses.

I cannot be brought to trust the opinion of someone who pronounces the name Tristan differently than I was raised to, unless it is because of their native accent. If we can’t align on that, we can’t align on anything.

I might buy Trump a copy of how to win friends and influence people. I think he’d enjoy the read. It’s a great book!

Every time I see a guy in walking confidently in Lycra and those clicky bike shoes my first thought is: “He’d slay at drag”

For me, the fifth dimension of 4D chess is making weird eyebrow movements to throw my opponent off their concentration.

Actual chess is 2D. Everyone says “4D chess” to imply wicked smart strategy. What happened to 3D chess? Because every time someone says “4D chess” I just assume they are an idiot who thinks chess is played in 3 dimensions because you pick the piece up to move it on the 2D grid.

I, for one, can’t imagine someone criticizing such a singular leader. But people are starting to say things like this:

AI is great. But it is completely incapable of making beautiful things. Devastating in its ability to reveal how little sense of self and wonder most people possess.

I am just a designer, but may I humbly put forth @hamburgerz.bsky.social He slayed on stuff at Fission. Only complaint is sometimes he needs to be told to slow down and just enjoy life.
