The AI Industry Has a Major Problem: Most People Aren't Freaks Who Want an AI Agent Running Their Whole Life
There's a problem for AI agents like Meta's Muse: ordinary people don't seem very interested in what they're offering.

Ben Shapiro has to suffer from being reminded again and again that 1) At most, he will only build an audience of weird broken freaks, 2) Those weird broken freaks will care more when he bashes a popular movie than when he makes his own, and 3) It's not safe to be famous among weird broken freaks.

Reflecting on the Resident Evil movie, and a thematic takeaway that's sticking with me with me is that it posits that no matter how insecure and incompetent you feel, you will never be as stupid as the people in power whose real incompetence will fuck up your life way worse than you could yourself.

@lilymasonphd.bsky.social spitting truth:
From this perspective, the “both sides” frame falls apart. The problem is not that the parties are divided. The problem is the existential threat that a reempowered ethnonationalist strain poses to pluralistic U.S. democracy writ large. The current level of political animosity is exactly what one would expect to see if an extremist faction attempted to rescind the hard-earned rights of the vast majority of the country’s citizens. The only way to re-oppress most of a country is to use anti-democratic and authoritarian tactics. And the only way to oppose those tactics is to push back as a population and clearly reject them. This is the argument happening in the United States, and its pathology is not anger—it is the movement to undermine a generation of rights.

The fact that Schmitt’s team alerted the media to be ready for drama is the part that too few of you are focusing on. I did PR for years. It would have been a big deal, had it proceeded as planned. That it didn’t, for the precise reasons it didn’t, is revelatory. It speaks to incompetence.

Pretty clear to me there’s a very good case against this man for mass murder, and I’m saying that in as measured a fashion as I can. He’s order the killing of 234 people under no plausible war or legal justification. I am skeptical he will ever face legal accountability for til his but he should.
