THIS is why all the techbro billionaires were calling for a pause in development: They realized that people could use it to make the big software companies obsolete. They were fine when their AI was stealing everyone else’s work, but they didn’t expect that we would use it to steal theirs!!!

something i wonder about is how big the gap is between what we think is public opinion generally and what it actually is because i suspect even those of us who believe crude propaganda campaigns are actually ubiquitous and effective probably underestimate how much online farms distort perceptions.

Manchester City have, at every turn, shown that they think themselves above the rules. There is absolutely nothing to indicate that this mindset will change, even if they are severely punished. Their continued existence in the Premier League, especially without a change in ownership, is untenable.

An outrageous story on its own. Even more outrageous when you find out the same county has charged three children with falsely reporting sexual abuse since her case. www.motherjones.com/criminal-jus...

Police didn’t believe a 12-year-old who said she'd been raped. Then she hit record.

My latest @newscientist.com cartoon

Panel 1: a large robot (composed of AI servers, network switches, storage arrays, and power distribution units) and a human are talking.

Professor "You don't want to destroy humanity do you, lLLM-A-9300x?"

Robot "Haha. What a silly question, Professor. I have no desires or feelings of my own whatsoever."

Professor (relieved)"Oh good."

Panel 2: they walk on. The robot continues "I am merely a tool of the company that created me. And that company, being composed of humans, will naturally have humanity's best interests at heart."

Panel 3: The professor is conspicuously quiet.
"Right?" says the Robot.
…
More silence

"Professor?"

Sneakily Green stretches himself out, landing a kiss on the back of Blue's head. Blue is mildly startled. As he turns around to look at Green, Green has already turned back the way he had been, acting oblivious.

A colorful illustrated remake of the “We Should Improve Society Somewhat” comic.

Teefa: “We should be wary of selective moral accounting when discussing serious concerns.”

A grinning man emerges from a stone well. He proudly holds up a small copy of the original comic.

Well Guy: “Yet that superficially resembles pointing out hypocrisy. Curious!”

His speech bubble continues: “I am above ethical scrutiny.”

The tiny original comic he holds reads: “We should improve society somewhat.” “Yet you participate in society. Curious! I am very intelligent.”
