Ned Ludd Lives @luddwasright.bsky.social · 07/10/2026Oh my god, I’m in a work call right now where one colleague just instructed another to use Copilot to do what would be an extremely simple find and replace operation for hundreds of lines of text. I suggested replace instead, and his was response was sure but that’s the “old method” 😩 000

Ned Ludd Lives @luddwasright.bsky.social · 04/10/2026You are a sick, dying squirrel. You would prefer to die in: 1) A black plastic bin with ventilation, cooked pumpkin, seeds, water, and no way to get out 2) Out in the open where a coyote or owl is likely going to get you and eat you alive current situation is 1 but I'm conflicted. 000
Ned Ludd Lives @luddwasright.bsky.social · 03/10/2026Sort of pathetic because the amount of money you really need to escape the grind these days is *so* much more than whatever they’ll pay you for your 4 year circus act. I’d rather just scrape by with a clean conscious until a drop 120
Ned Ludd Lives @luddwasright.bsky.social · 03/10/2026The funny thing about AI is that, when you think about it, the only people being put out of jobs are the tech people that developed it. They’re only remarkable for having particularly systematic, organized minds, and now they’ve automated that away. Good job guys 010

Ned Ludd Lives @luddwasright.bsky.social · 03/10/2026I remember there was a period where people were cancelling Woody Harrelson for his insane conspiracy theories about vaccinations and stuff. But after listening to his interview on Conan, I’m inclined to say he’s just a harmless garden-variety dumbass. There should be some leeway for these sorts of 111
Ned Ludd Lives @luddwasright.bsky.social · 03/10/2026Depressing how it seems like yet another autumn is going to get stolen from us here in Colorado and turned into late summer weather. I wonder if we're in for another warm-autumn "winter" with occasional snowfall. 000
Ned Ludd Lives @luddwasright.bsky.social · 03/10/2026And look at the condition of streets back then. Clean as a whistle! 000
Ned Ludd Lives @luddwasright.bsky.social · 03/10/2026Recently, I fed copilot a list of numbers and asked it to tell me which ones were prime. It told me. Then, I asked it how it did that, and it showed me the python code that it used, but that code used a prime function. But where’s the function stored? Is that the tool call? 000
Ned Ludd Lives @luddwasright.bsky.social · 03/10/2026I’ve noticed that the 17th century style at the time for the European nobility was to wear a collar that makes it look like your head is on a plate. Feels like foreshadowing 000

Ned Ludd Lives @luddwasright.bsky.social · 02/10/2026You’d assume something supposedly both intelligent and conscious would have its own motivations. LLMs don’t. If you don’t tell them to do anything, they’ll just sit there. They won’t query any info, experiment, talk to themselves, nothing. You know, the same way a calculator wouldn’t. 010

Ned Ludd Lives @luddwasright.bsky.social · 26/09/2026I recently watched a bee get bullied off a flower by a fucking butterfly that successfully used its wings to whack (really, a light tap) the bee, so I no longer have any respect for them as insects. 000
Ned Ludd Lives @luddwasright.bsky.social · 26/09/2026So he's just another asshole, then. I didn't really know the first thing about the guy, but I listened to Adam Friedland's interview of him, and he seemed OK. Adam should have pushed him harder. 100
Ned Ludd Lives @luddwasright.bsky.social · 26/09/2026What part of my brain is keep track of this?? It's certainly subconscious. How does it know to trigger specifically the "eggs" memory? Is there a tiny me trapped in there who is stuck doing nothing but counting seconds? 000
Ned Ludd Lives @luddwasright.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Having an accurate internal clock feels like a real life magical power. I just set a 10 minute alarm for some eggs, and then got distracted and forgot all about them. Then, I suddenly get an alarming thought, "Oh no, the eggs!" and a split second later the alarm goes off. 100

Ned Ludd Lives @luddwasright.bsky.social · 24/09/2026Also, lots of people losing their retirement funds once the LLMs get good enough at fraud, data mining, and hacking. Even if it can't convince the person to transfer their funds, it may well be able to collect enough info to impersonate them. 2210
Ned Ludd Lives @luddwasright.bsky.social · 22/09/2026Turns out there is a creator of the universe, but it's just some guy that spun up 999 other ones at the same time trying to see if one comes up with a solution to the bug in his code. 000
