The problem AI is solving is, near as I can tell, tech bros envy at others people’s ability to create and engage meaningfully with art.

Parents will recognise this as stages hope goes through as you try and get children out the door to school on time.

Some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some fucks have greatness thrust upon them.

Policies that have quite literally lead to cleaner lungs for children. He’s like a character from a Dickensian novel leaving London because of new laws against using little children as chimney sweeps.

They all feel like the answer to the question, what if Dunning–Kruger and survivorship bias had children?

JD Vance fires up his Pulp Fiction DVD to find a pithy bible verse in response.

The fact that “billionaire has tantrum” could be one of several news stories this week is pretty a pretty depressing state of affairs.

And when they’ve finished with that they can tackle other important issues like “why isn’t music as good as when I was young” and “who was the best Beatle”

Do you believe in UFOs, astral projections, mental telepathy, ESP, clairvoyance, spirit photography, telekinetic movement, full trance mediums, the Loch Ness monster and the theory of Atlantis?

Can we stop conflating legitimate concern with plausible concern. All concerns are legitimate to the person who has them. My daughter has a legitimate concern about monsters under the bed. That doesn’t mean I shouldn’t try to disabuse her of this notion.

Top secret admiral: and what makes you think you’ve got what it takes to succeed here at code breaking HQ Me: well I can figure out what my 5 year old did at school from the description of her day Top secret admiral: *faints* Top secret admiral’s assistant: I think you’re in!

If you want to understand the current debate about ASI extinction risk, please please read this. I explain how you've almost certainly been misled into thinking this is about saving humanity--it's NOT. The term "human extinction" doesn't mean what you think it does!

Sure, I mean other than huge economic benefits, health and wellbeing and soft power projected across the globe, what have the arts and humanities ever done for us!

The negative is presumably Paul Nuttall of the UKIPs who thinks the Normans should have stayed in France and focused on improving their own iconic tapestry weaving.

If another party has been embroiled in scandal and less than 24 hours later their members filmed violently assaulting protesters at their party conference as the leader laughs on it would be wall to wall on the BBC. Yet all there is on their website is a nice piece about their tax policy.

It’s an impressive crime given that they would need to stop and rest half way through.

Genuine opinion is you would get more of an impact on child wellbeing by regulating adult social media use than child social media use.

Well, in four more years we can have another go. For people who use old money, that's around 9 Prime ministers time.

People forget that to have been a teenager during the war you pretty much have to be 100 years old.

Clacton by-election will feature a ridiculous cartoon like character masquerading as a politician that no one should take seriously and will be embarrassed to be seen standing next to on election day. And also Count Binface.
