NYT: Anthropic Nearly Walked Out on Pope Leo XIV’s AI Encyclical — Then Lobbied His Advisers
Chris Olah saw an advance copy of Magnifica Humanitas days before the Vatican launch and proposed withdrawing over its stance on machine consciousness. The pope held his ground.

The second season was not as bad as everyone pretends. It struggled under the pressure of the first season, but was totally fine. Night Country is way worse.

When you talk to an AI, you are talking to the company hosting the AI, EFF’s @falsemirror.masto.nyc.ap.brid.gy told @WIRED.com. “These chat windows—that we’re used to being connections between us and another person—are really just us directly putting information into Meta servers about ourselves.”

It doesn’t help that the platforms reward this type of shock content, filling you up with more and more of it until you believe that’s all there is on the internet. The first step is just not sharing, but there’s a bigger issue supporting that vileness.

It drives me mad how intellectually dishonest most of these types are. Not a city measure and was never legal to use in public. PPB (as are all cops) is a right-wing group willing to lie and sandbag the city for their own ends.

Using a Brick, so I don't have to delete the apps off my phone, and Beeper, so I can keep my DMs functional. Kinda a nice 1-2 punch. I'm a fool and LOVE scrolling those TikToks but it's super wasteful of my time and definitely alters your brain in a bad way.
