Exactly this. And in fact, many models *have* been created this way, and decades of prior machine learning systems *were* created this way, consensually. These things are choices! People are STILL working this way! It’s not just that a better world is possible — it already EXISTS. We can nurture it.

I really believe a lot of the mental and emotional turmoil that Americans (across races) are experiencing now is caused by us being raised to believe that History™ was over. It's obvious, now, that not only is it not over, not only are we a part of it, we're relitigating battles we thought we won.

Neiman Marcus closed its downtown Dallas flagship on Wednesday. The store played a notable role in the history of desegregation in Dallas. Previously, Black shoppers across the US could enter department stores, but they weren't allowed to try on clothes without adhering to certain conditions. 🧵

I've heard people make claims that AI would lead to a new Renaissance, but I didn't imagine it'd happen like this:

Screenshot of a Tweet from Pope Leo XIV. It reads:

"In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgen to distinguish human art from what machines produce. There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack the spark of humanity. For this reason, the Church wishes to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity."

The techno-dystopia I actually fear is a future where most people think truth is whatever Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, or Grok say, and the very small number of people who control those systems use that to manipulate for their own ends, making our current epistemic crisis seem small in comparison.

Dark thread. Since we watched Musk literally push a "protect the Boers" button in real time with Grok, we now know people or companies could theoretically pay their way into putting a thumb on the scale for Grok/Claude/ChatGPT. This is why the AI stans want you to believe it's thinking

Rafael Mandelman is finally showing the world what some of us have know he was all along The others in SF's shady political class are fleeing like rats from a sinking ship. Not Raf. He's all for it. I hope this will be the end of his status as a "major figure". sfstandard.com/2026/10/01/m...

One major figure still backing Yekutiel is Board of Supervisors President Rafael Mandelman, who holds the District 8 seat.
“I stand by Manny and my support for him. I have known him for years, believe his character, and these allegations do not change the person I know or the reasons I support him,” Mandelman (opens in new tab)told the Bay Area Reporter

I really do think tech crossed a line at some point between "helping you do the things you want to do" on the one hand, and "helping you do the things tech wants you to do" on the other. At this point, we're all contorting ourselves to live how the tech industry thinks we should be living.

Haydon, frightfully @haydonmp.bsky.social · 29/09/2026

Writing can externalize information that would otherwise have to be remembered. It can't put attention or concentration into the world. Those are processes one must still carry out while composing or using notes. Formulating an explanation requires selection, retrieval, organization, and revision.

One thread I didn’t have room to pursue in the essay is that writing is itself a technology for cognitive offloading. It lets us put memory and attention and concentration into the world rather than carrying everything in our heads. That is enormously useful, but it might also mean that we exercise some capacities less.
The humanities and social sciences are so lopsided in privileging writing — and I suspect ease of assessment is a major driver — that we have obscured the costs to these other capacities for thought and have become lazy about imagining alternative ways of cultivating them. AI dramatically highlights the same question.
What kinds of thinking should we be willing to offload, and what kinds do we want students to keep practicing for themselves?
