this whole discourse is upsetting because the real reason to hate HR is that they are obstructionists who work on behalf of the c-suite and not for you

which one of your cretins made this post show up on my feed. i am on bluesky specifically to avoid these sorts of subtrivial psychodrivel slopnuggets. "can i bring a drink to an interview?" what the fuck kind of question is that? "is a hot dog a sandwich?" go look at a fucking leaf

Friend shared this video of a man unveiling the library he hid when he fled Damascus in 2011. It’s incredible

it's like if someone who dressed as a Native Ameeican for Halloween in the past came out really swinging for land back. hold two truths: what they did before was bad and wrong, what they're doing now is right (did Macklemore ever apologize for that costume?)

"people are anthropomorphizing LLMs because they are so astonishingly good at processing human thought and language" people will anthropomorphize a chair if you put the stitches in the right place.

The cohort of Silicon Valley AI products before us are inefficient and unethical. Their products are capable of mesmerizingly amazing things. One does not excuse the other.

A lot is happening at once and we end up crossing arguments. What looks like an argument about technology is actually an argument about particular products which exploit that technology. LLMs and NLP can democratize computing and illuminate obscure knowledge. OpenAI et al. are not doing that.

"you're lying": no they aren't "stupid": mean, but debatable— Perspective from a STEM professor at an AI-forward university: The juice ain't worth the squeeze. There can be no positive value in using these *products*. Unethical through and through. We deserve better. The tech deserves better.

horrible for the ethics of how it's trained, how it's powered and cooled, how it's marketed, list goes on. but more to the point of Masnick's defense: why is it so important that we do more work or faster work? neither free time nor wages have scaled with productivity. so what's the point?

displaying passion mate concern about the systems at a university is often met by fence-sitters as an overreaction at best, mental instability at worst. I expressed concern to my director about how deeply our university is entrenching itself with corporate genAI and he told me to go to therapy
