Lest anyone accuse me of bargaining in bad faith here, let me start with this admission: I don't think AI is intelligent; nor do I think that the current (admittedly impressive) statistical techniques will lead to intelligence. 1/

A killer 1940s robot zapping two large domes with eye-lasers; trapped under the domes are two children, taken from 1910s photos of child laborers; one, a little girl in a straw hat, is holding two heavy buckets. The other, a newsie with a shoulder bag, is picking his nose. The background is the collapsing pillars seen in Dore's engraving of The Death of Solomon.

Now, we're talking. Gibbson's Neuromancer is pretty much my favorite scifi book ever. Hopefully, the adaption will live up to the original. www.joblo.com/neuromancer-...

Un article bref et concis qui fait plein de bon sens. Legault a un peu de difficulté avec le point 1.

Probablement un suicide politique de sa part. Mais si elle gagne la course à la chefferie, je vais peut-être voter pour le PLC pour la première fois de ma vie ce printemps.

Maybe the most important video by @anderspuck.bsky.social so far: a) russia is closer to victory than ever (peace treaty that leaves Ukraine defenseless, unstable, and poor) b) russia is closer to defeat than ever (economic crisis) youtu.be/MhpoNL1gZbw?...

I've seen some folks fearing that Musk might actually be able to purchase Hasbro or D&D. Or laughing at how he'll do it. The thing is, the money isn't there to do it. He literally cannot. Let's review this. First, there's not a buyout clause. He has to approach the board to make an offer.

The reason why I'm here, testing the water on a new social network. I would have spent my whole life with only Facebook as a social network. My friend list there is huge, I spent a ton of time curating my feed. And then, everything went to shit. Here's why. www.wired.com/story/tiktok...
