I can’t believe we’re back to medieval level conflicts like “local merchant princes attempt to bribe theologians and the Pope’s advisors so the Pope will issue a favorable proclaimation”

A two panel meme of the Simpsons. The top panel has kirk van houten gesturing to a race care bed. The text reads "im an AI guy. How many local models do YOU run?" The bottom panel is homer with a pope hat photoshopped onto his head. The bottom text reads "I run the catholic church."

We can try though. I suggest we use Detective Chimp as the basic measure (we might need to suspend him and store him in Greenwich to keep a standard) and take it from there. I'd say Batman is about .65 chimps.

I've heard people make claims that AI would lead to a new Renaissance, but I didn't imagine it'd happen like this:
Screenshot of a Tweet from Pope Leo XIV. It reads: 

"In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgen to distinguish human art from what machines produce. There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack the spark of humanity. For this reason, the Church wishes to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity."

We should treat genAI in publishing the way you’d treat a vampire trying to enter your home. You never give it permission to enter. It doesn’t matter if it‘s polite or makes generous offers or it’s *only* going to take the ones *you* don’t care about. It’s here for your blood. Don’t let it in.

google is just completely broken now
Google search for "control resonant those meows means he's on the creatures trail"

AIO "answer": The phrase "control resonant those meows means he's on the creatures trail" appears to be an anagram.

When you rearrange the letters of those exact words, they unscramble to reveal a famous quote from Lewis Carroll's Alice's Adventures in WonderlandThe phrase "control resonant those meows means he's on the creatures trail" appears to be an anagram.

When you rearrange the letters of those exact words, they unscramble to reveal a famous quote from Lewis Carroll's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland.

"Curtsey while you're thinking what to say. It saves time."

How it breaks down:

Original letters: c-o-n-t-r-o-l-r-e-s-o-n-a-n-t-t-h-o-s-e-m-e-o-w-s-m-e-a-n-s-h-e- -o-n-t-h-e-c-r-e-a-t-u-r-e-s-t-r-a-i-l

The original quote is spoken by the Red Queen (in Through the Looking-Glass) or associated with the general nonsense logic of Wonderland!

The cluelessness of this reminds me a lot of the NFT grift. The thing about NFTs was that it was mainly something finance bros were into, and when they were trying to worm their way into gaming, their pitches were an abyssal trench of bad ideas because they couldn't grasp why people played games.

Castlevania celebrates turning 40 by giving away the original game for free www.eurogamer.net/castlevania-...
Pixelated video game scene with a dark blue sky and a dense, green forest in the background. A figure in gold armor stands on a brick path with multiple skeletal enemies. The heads of the enemies resemble whips or serpents. A statue of a figure stands to the left of the path, and a flaming torch is to the right. The top of the screen displays game information including score, time, and stage number.

When someone arrives in my office on a job interview loop, I ask them if they need to use the restroom or need a drink. Sometimes I walk with them to go get tea or coffee. Sometimes they have their own already. I do this because I’m a normal human being and want normal human beings to feel welcome.

I have actively turned people away from AI by asking it to generate information on something they know. Like a handyman realizes immediately that AI is useless when it cannot distinguish between a hammer and a nail. I see how that does not work with someone who cannot produce their own phone number.

Going through the wikis, I see Teferi actually proposed and Jhoira said no??? Man, this is why shipping is not for the faint-hearted. (That said, fair, never ask a girl to choose between a Planeswalker whom you practically used to babysit and a flying planeshifting artifact ship)

"AI" will make us dumber and they don't care because it will make us dependable on it (and therefore it will make them richer) It says a lot about what they think about us that they show their cards in the open like this. They think we can't do anything about them. We can still prove them wrong.

Man, I remember being very, very invested in Teferi and Jhoira. They disappearing from the lore novels is one of the reasons why I never looked back once I stopped playing Magic. (I also remember Jhoira being described as copper-skinned yet most cards show her very white -_- )

So Control Resonant required a 90GB download as a preload and to launch for the first time it needs to download a 90GB day one patch. I had accepted that the Golden Age of the Internet was long over, but we truly are in the middle of the Stupid Age.
