If I don't keep my car roadworthy and crash into yours, it hasn't gone "rogue", it's my negligence and I'm responsible. If my dog attacks you, I am liable. There are no rogue AIs, just negligent AI companies. Prosecute them.

Well yes, I am indeed "set in my ways." After all these decades, I have finally figured out what it is that I like, and I am sticking with them.

After all these years, we have the proper way to describe the guitar bit on The Kinks' "You Really Got Me": That's a vibe solo.

This was later downgraded to 185, with an official, Kimberley Vogt, saying the roll had been manually reviewed and that this number was confirmed. Nevada authorities vetted […]

This has absolutely entered my vocabulary. On the off-chance that you haven't seen this definition yet: Meat proxy 1. A person who forwards AI-generated text, code, or other output without reading, understanding, or validating it. The person acts only as a relay between the AI system and the […]

I've just seen this Peter Drucker management quote that I think encapsulates AI perfectly: > There is nothing so useless as doing efficiently that which should not be done at all. A lot of people are using AI to automate processes that exist, instead of asking what the process accomplished in […]

RT @brianoneill.bsky.social Honestly, if this somehow wrecks Mar-a-Lago a lot of long-held beliefs I have about the afterlife will be hastily reconsidered.

Hurricane Dolly now has a high chance of forming in the Tropical Atlantic.

In an unbelievable coincidence, Dolly is the next name on the Atlantic hurricane list, and country music legend Dolly Parton passed away today at age 80 in Nashville, Tennessee.

Invest 96L currently has a 70% chance of development as it moves across the Tropical Atlantic.

If this system becomes a tropical storm, it will be named Dolly.

We must stand in solidarity with Jews being attacked by antisemitic criminals and terrorists: no ifs or buts. We must stand in solidarity with Palestinians being murdered by the Israeli government: no ifs or buts. These are not contradictory positions. They are consistent ones. 🧵1/5

Well of course ICE had to snatch up those boys. Piney Woods is one thing, that's a school for them blacks, anyway, right? But transferring to Hancock HS? A nice, white school? Well, we can't have that.

“You're thinking of the $175 billion in tariff money all wrong. As if I had the money back in a safe. The money's not here. Your money's in the White House ballroom, the renaming of the Department of Defense, the $10 billion transfer to the Board of Peace, and a hundred other unauthorized actions.”

"AI is built on the collective knowledge of humankind." No. Nononononono. It is not built on _knowledge_, it it built on _data_. And not everyone's experiences are available as data, many communities are included. Also: "Collective" implies some sort of collaboration and shared activity. But […]
