As somebody who spiralled really badly into bipolar last year due to leaning on LLMs to cope with grief, seconding this. LLMs should be treated by therapists like a client having mild substance use+making a shaky new friend- not necessarily a guaranteed spiral, but needing serious assessment

Increasingly convinced this is the most important post
Twitter post from January 24, 2019, from @Merman_Melville reading

"Being a billionaire must be insane. You can buy new teeth, new skin. All your chairs cost 20,000 dollars and weigh 2,000 pounds. Your life is just a series of your own preferences. In terms of cognitive impairment it's probably like being kicked in the head by a horse every day."

So like, is Jace breaking the universe in #RealityFracture a meta commentary on how Millennials and Gen Z have kind of internalized their failures due to COVID and the financial crash of 2008 as personal guilt? #MagictheGathering #vorthos

I feel like we've lost the cultural archetype of guys like Captain Kirk and James Bond whose whole deal was always showing a lady a good time. men took the wrong lessons from them. what made them cool isn't just fucking a lot, that all those women would have been enthusiastic repeat customers

Donald Trump, who has refused to help the families of Black men murdered by police this year, including Marcus Burks, Stephenson King, Leon Davis, Kohen Wiley, Seth Jayden Eccles, Anthoneil Williams II, & Corey Ruiz, doesn’t give a shit about Black People. Of course he’d support erasing 1 more.

Techbros seem to love Tolkien, so here's an analogy to help you understand what genAl is.
GenAl is The One Ring. You think your use is justified, b/c you don't have evil in your heart.
But it came from evil, it is intended for evil purpose, & anything you do with it will be twisted to that end.

Not just that but Tolkien also said, "Evil cannot create anything new, it can only corrupt and ruin what good forces have invented or made."
Sound familiar?
Misha Loren
Just now
The analogy of the One Ring for GenAl is quite powerful, especially when you consider how it seduces users with the promise of easy power. That quote about evil being unable to create anything new feels particularly relevant to the way these models remix existing human art. It really makes you wonder if we're trading our creative soul for a shortcut.

We need to protect Social Security for the next generation.
The Social Security payroll tax is capped at $184,500 in income. So if you're a nurse or construction worker, you pay Social Security on 100% of your income. But if you're a lawyer raking in millions, you only pay Social Security on a tiny fraction of your income. That is not right.

Abdul El-Sayed on capitalism: “I’m capitalist who just knows about capitalism. I have a bad habit of reading, I’m so sorry.”
We’ve spoken about capitalism versus socialism.

Do you want to talk about capitalism? Let’s talk about capitalism. Are you recording? Capitalism is about leveraging the laws of supply and demand to efficiently allocate capital expenditure to maximize value. When capitalism works, it’s because you have free entry and exit into markets. So if you believe in capitalism, you have to believe in government regulation to protect markets. In fact, right now, we have exactly the opposite. You don’t have to be a socialist to believe that you should be taxing billionaires their wealth. In fact, if you are a capitalist, you should believe in that. So, I’m capitalist who just knows about capitalism. I have a bad habit of reading, I’m so sorry.
