I have often said people are essentially arguing that engineering is impossible when they say there’s no way to build a reliable system out of unreliable parts. it‘s the most ordinary thing in the world

I want to expand on this in a short thread. Fascism sucks. It is also not going away: it is an effectively permanent part of modern representative politics because it is an effectively permanent part of human nature. We have to be prepared to push back against it, basically forever.

If the finding is that AI is bad or biased at something, you need to be much more careful. You cannot claim that because GPT-4 fails at something, that AI is bad at that task, because current or future models may do it. So what can you claim? These are just some examples: 3/

This is one of those arguments that sounds like slopulism but is actually, if anything, understated. 56% of Colorado river water goes to GROWING FEED FOR LIVESTOCK IN THE DESERT.

This is the French nuclear deterrence doctrine

Film still from Dune: Part Two (2024). Paul Atreides, played by Timothée Chalet, stands bruised and dust-covered in layered desert robes inside a dim, amber-lit room on Arrakis. He addresses an out-of-focus figure, Emperor Shaddam Corrino IV, as a large crowd of pale-robed Fremen watches behind him. The subtitle reads: “If the Great Houses attack, our atomics will obliterate all spice fields.” The scene shows his threat to destroy Arrakis’s spice production if the Great Houses invade.

#F1 pundits: make zero effort to understand energy recovery and deployment #F1 pundits trying to explain the difference in pace between George and Kimi:

Four-panel “confused math lady” meme showing close-ups of a blonde woman staring off with a puzzled, suspicious expression while mathematical formulas, geometric diagrams, graphs, and equations are overlaid around her face. The meme is commonly used to represent someone trying to process confusing information, mentally calculate something, or make sense of a situation that doesn’t add up.

Hate the new thinking level selector in ChatGPT. Vibes over specificity. Also completely inconsistent between web and mobile app.

Screenshot of a ChatGPT interface showing an expanded settings control labeled “Extra High.” A horizontal slider beneath it is set near the high end, with several unlabeled points along the scale and an “Advanced” option below.

I’ve learned to code at 13 on a Psion Organiser II. That thing could display 2 lines of 16 characters. The code needed to be in my head. Still one of the most interesting summers of my life.

Screenshot of a Google search for “What is the fattiest pastry in the world?” The AI Overview shows three photos of golden-brown kouign-amann pastries and states that kouign-amann is widely known as the world’s fattiest pastry, made with approximately 30% butter, 30% sugar, and 40% flour.

Changing the interface requires changing the behavior of all participants at once. It’s much easier to keep the interface, not requiring any behavior change, and automate underneath.
