The AI backlash is completely the fault of the dishonest hype merchants whose only talent is innovating new ways of lying. You pissed people off, now everyone hates you (justified) and your tech (less justified, but again, your fault)

I'm back, I missed you all. Since this is an important subject I know too much about, here's a 🧵 explaining that AI Safety Is Mostly A Sex Cult. I don't think these people should make policy. (1/?) (alternative title: Time For Some Cult Theory)

New Chrome UI update on mobile put their AI shit where the back button used to be. Already have accidentally enabled it a few times based on muscle memory and you can’t tell me that wasn’t a conscious decision. These people are the most cynical sacks of shit on the planet.

I know it's where we're at in 2026 and we all know it, but it bears stating the obvious that every major company in the world is openly throwing a tantrum that people expect them to provide goods and services instead of just sending them a payment of $200 every month for nothing

I do not believe that these guys are about to summon a world-ending superconsciousness from Nvidia graphics cards. But they either believe they can or want me to believe they believe they can. So I think "fuck them" is the only rational response

(AI actually has been used in science and medicine for decades and is incredibly good at doing things like finding cancer that can’t be seen with the human eye but that is a completely different type of AI then we’re all angry about it and we shouldn’t discuss them in the same conversations TBH)

You gotta hand it to OpenAI, billing this as a *partnership* between OpenAI & Hugging Face when what actually happened was Hugging Face finding out that OpenAI was using a bunch of bots to exploit security vulnerabilities. Talk about good marketing or whatever you want to call it, by OpenAI.

The gutting of id software by Microslop is one of the most dumbfounding business idiot decisions I’ve ever seen. Torching goodwill with gamers and devs alike and breaking up a studio with a 35 year track record of delivering certified bangers is knowingly-slamming-the-car-door-on-your-dick stupid.

Was recently shopping for EV’s and every piece of marketing highlights the insane 0-60 times on vehicles that weigh 5000lbs plus. Seems really bad actually.

I stopped trying to debate software developers on LLMs a while back. It's fruitless. Even if they could be budged on empirical grounds, they are explicitly fine with using tools that are themselves deeply unethical.

Incredible. 11/10 online checkout experience Microsoft, no notes. I have 17 Xbox games in my cart from your heavily advertised Black Friday sale. Deliberately flushing any goodwill you had left with gamers down the toilet, true business geniuses at work.

Just cleared a level of Doom Eternal: The Ancient Gods I had been stuck on for more than a year (because I’m an aging masochist who refuses to lower the difficulty from Ultra Violence). Feels good man. Rip and tear, until it is done.

Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive. No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief. 1/ A 🧵 to explain his plan and how we fight back.

Really wanted to like Atomfall but the clunky combat and completely broken stealth mechanics outweigh any interest and intrigue I’ve found so far in the story. Think I’m gonna uninstall and maybe revisit if/when they fix a few rough edges.

Finished Avowed yesterday, what a delightful game. Aesthetically gorgeous, solid story with real consequences to decisions, well written companions (even wet blanket Marius) and combat that was tight and satisfying. They also gave you incentive to explore, with stuff hidden everywhere. Recommend!
