New from 404 Media: humans are reading ChatGPT conversations. OpenAI has hired an army of contractors who read real ChatGPT users' chats. I've seen internal docs, the review system, and real user prompts. Sometimes they contain very personal and sensitive information www.404media.co/inside-proje...

Hopefully I don't have to go into detail on how listening and passively writing other people's conversations that you don't have permission to record is just as bleak

TL;DR The new Apple Watch listens to conversations and can write an AI summary about your day. If you have a doctor wearing it, likely 1) Your conversation is permanently recorded 2) They don't have iCloud's Advanced Data Protection encryption turned on 3) Your info will be in the wild

Again, DON’T PUT YOUR HARD WORK INTO AI

X post from OpenAI: “ChatGPT Work can now pick up on what makes your writing sound like… you. Your favorite phrases. Your very specific sign-off. your capitalizations quirks.

Connect the tools you use every day, like Gmail, Google Drive, Slack, and SharePoint, and ChatGPT Work will learn your writing style from your emails, messages, and files—and carry it into whatever you write next.”

Another lesson in not using AI to write your books or solve Millenium Prize Problems, because there’s a high chance your work will be plagarized and published by someone else Source: mastodon.social/@tristanbuck...

“I asked when the first prompt had been sent by them. This question was not answered directly by OpenAl for some time. Eventually it was agreed that it had been sent in the past few days, after information about our work had reached OpenAI.
I asked whether the model had been trained on, or had access to, our sessions in Codex, into which we had been putting all our drafts for the whole of this project. I was told the model did not look up user data. I asked again, about training, and I did not get an answer.
Two proposals were offered to me. The first was that we post our Euler result, and that OpenAl post its Navier-Stokes result the next day. The second was that, after posting Euler, I alone write a paper presenting the Navier-Stokes result, acknowledging that an internal OpenAl model had resolved it. Sebastien twice asserted that he wanted Levent removed from authorship, and said it would all be simple if only it were not the case that, and it was so annoying that, Levent works at Anthropic. It was also said that if OpenAI posted after us, they would say that we deserved the Clay Prize, and that we were the "closest humans to the problem". I declined both offers.
I said that if OpenAl released its result in the way proposed I would go public with what happened. The reply was, "Why would you ruin your career?" I replied that I am an academic, and asked why he thought going public would ruin my career. The reply was, "If you don't want me to be nice, then I don't have to be nice.”

Sadly hydrocolloids only take moisture out. Wash the bite and use an antihistamine, oral or topical, to reduce any swelling

I was a minor when I started buying Playstation games. Back when I bought Final Fantasy 8, I OWNED Final Fantasy 8 I only found out about licensing a decade later because I was trying to get into the gaming industry. How would a “reasonable consumer” ever know the rules changed 💀

My conspiracy take: there are people using this excuse to get out of miserable marriages. If so, you do you girlie. Get out, no-fault divorce ASAP Still… get therapy

Ashe @ladyinsanity.bsky.social · 31/08/2026

If this is enough to make you want to break up, do it. Break up and — this is the important part — go to therapy. If you cannot separate real life from fiction, that is 100% on you.

Love me some number padding. 📈📈📈 Still, whoever ends up throwing down the cash to buy Dragon Age better be brave. The lore is deep and its fandom lovingly feral - it will not do well under an EA v2.
