My fucking God. I am resisting the knee-jerk reaction of saying "Well, what did you expect when you gave pervert Baymax the keys to your entire account" because, genuinely, who could expect this.

An individual in Canada used ChatGPT for eight months to plan one of the country’s worst mass shootings. Yet, if you listen to politicians and media, the real threat of AI is a fantastical scenario where it might wipe out humans in ten years. They need to stop getting fooled by tech deceivers.

The media has the AI threat all wrong
Generative AI is harming people today. We don’t need to waste time fantasizing about science fictional scenarios.

Bill Maher is mathematically and canonically a Boomer. Nevertheless his most toxic Gen X trait is deciding that if everyone else likes something/someone, it must be stupid
A screenshot of a headline from the Independent: "Bill Maher issues sour comment on Dolly Parton's death" 
Story by Roisin O'ConnorBill Maher complained about the reaction to Dolly Parton's death, aged 80, during a monologue on his show Real Time.

The comedian and talk-show host began the episode on Friday (28 August) by discussing current events, in particular the United States' trade war with Canada. "All this is going on, and all America could really talk about this week was how sad it was. we lost Dolly Parton," he said in a clip shared to X on Friday night.

The most recent @garbageday.email has a prediction about Silicon Valley trying to make gen-AI cool and I think is both spot-on & very depressing
As AI usage becomes something fewer and fewer people will be comfortable admitting they use, Silicon Valley reactionaries will absolutely try and spin it as something edgy and dangerous. It will not work in the long term, the same way none of their messaging and would-be social engineering really sticks, [highlighted text starts here] but it will mean that in approximately five months, there’s going to be an extremely tedious national conversation about whether or not using an AI is actually the new punk rock.
