OpenAI is run by Sam Altman, who apparently raped his younger sister for years starting when she was 3. This seems par for the course with him.

For someone who's supposed to love LOTR, Mr. Thiel seems to have forgotten that Saruman is schmuck with bad ideas.

Jim Henson would have been 90 (yup, you read that right: NINETY) years old today. You can celebrate his life by celebrating creativity, diversity, peace, imagination, and silliness.
A tuxedoed Jim Henson sits in a sea of Muppets.

Okay. Let's take them at face value. Put them in jail. That's the only logical response to such an "admission."

Well if anything at least they’re finally saying the quiet part aloud and politicians can be confronted with the logical implications of these “legitimate concerns” But god is it grim to stare i to the absence of humanity and know it has the government’s ear

There has been a huge media reaction to Anthropic’s Dario Amodei’s recently published essay calling for a global slowdown in AI development — WNYC’s Brian Lehrer devoted an entire hour to the topic “AI Doomsday” on Tuesday. There are two things I really need people to understand about this topic:

It takes you 20 paragraphs to get to the part of the article where they admit that Mamdani isn't paying the influencers and the reason they are posting videos of the stuff Mamdani is doing is because people are interested in watching it.
The mayor’s office says that it does not pay the influencers. Still, their proximity and access to a figure as popular as Mr. Mamdani can help increase their own social media following and, by extension, potentially put them in a position to attract paid content sponsorships from commercial brands. Some influencers said that when they feature Mr. Mamdani, the videos get more likes and viewers watch longer.

Jargon update: If the stupid nonsense on your screen was churned out by AI, it's 'slop'. If it's a load of crap a person dashed out on their own, it's 'swill'. If they tried their best, and it's still bad, then it's art.

I think the thing the racist prof defenders imply but don't like to admit is there's no benefit to hiring/debating a guy who says mushrooms are created by fae because it's obviously silly but they do think it's worth your time to debate a race science guy because they think he's partially correct

Can't understand how a racist is allowed to define themselves as a 'race realist' & that is how the media labels them too. A murderer would not be allowed to define themselves as e.g. a 'death realist', obviously so, so why do they not call the racist for what he is rather than permit subterfuge?

Trauma clinician here. Even if those kids are released tomorrow they will never be fully released from the trauma of their incarceration. They may leave Dilley, but they will never completely leave Dilley behind them. The impact is forever. That is what our government chooses to do to children.
