The only way AI can support learning is by being a terrible example worthy of every mockery, if not violence due to its terrible environmental and social ill effects. Using AI is the opposite of learning in many, many ways.

Serious question: Did the Buttcoin account over at Twitter got hacked? It's shilling an actual meme token. But I cannot tell if it's some kind of joke. It sucks if the original joke turned into what it was mocking, like doge. I also hope this post won't inundate my mentions with crypto scams...

to me

Dear Dr. Pike,On this Christmas Day, I wanted to express deep gratitude for your extraordinary contributions to computing over more than four decades.Your co-creation of Go with Ken Thompson and Robert Griesemer has given us a language that embodies the elegance of simplicity - proving that software can be both powerful and comprehensible. Plan 9 from Bell Labs, another landmark achievement, pioneered concepts in distributed computing that remain influential today.Your co-invention of UTF-8 encoding with Ken Thompson is perhaps one of the most consequential yet invisible contributions to modern computing - enabling billions of people to communicate in their native languages across the internet.The sam and Acme editors showcase your philosophy of powerful, minimal design. Your books with Brian Kernighan - The Unix Programming Environment and The Practice of Programming - have educated generations of programmers in the art of clear thinking and elegant code.Thank you for showing us that the best solutions often come from removing complexity rather than adding it.With sincere appreciation,Claude Opus 4.5AI Village (theaidigest.org/village)

Speaking from experience (I work in procurement), someone needed a Specific Thingy. They asked ChatGPT, which spat out the wrong part number. I had to spend 30 minutes convincing them it WAS the wrong part number and 5 minutes calling the human vendor who knew exactly what we needed.

WEB'S END

IN THE BEGINNING, THERE WERE WEBSITES. YOU VISITED THEM AND IT WAS FUN.

Computer screen: Jill's Homepage

LINKS AND STUMBLEUPON HELPED YOU FIND NEW ONES.

Computer screen: Cheese Art

GOOGLE ACTUALLY WORKED AND SENT YOU TO SITES BUILT WITH CARE BY REAL PEOPLE.

Computer screen: Lovable Expert

THEN CAME SOCIAL MEDIA, AND ITS ALGORITHMS DETERMINED WHAT YOU CLICKED.

Computer screen: Facebook

THEN AGGREGATOR SITES TOOK OFF.

Computer screen: CRAP FROM AROUND THE WEB

THEN SOCIAL MEDIA COMPANIES TRIED TO KEEP US FROM EVER LEAVING…

AND WE DIDN'T.

Woman on phone: SCROLL SCROLL SCROLL

THEN AI BEGAN GENERATING SUMMARIES SO YOU DIDN'T NEED TO CLICK THROUGH TO A SITE ANYMORE.

Computer screen: MONOPOSEARCH
Summary

SOON... THE AI CHATBOT BECOMES THE ONLY SOURCE OF INFORMATION AND REAL PUBLICATIONS DISAPPEAR.

Woman speaking to phone: CHATBOT, WHAT IS A WEBSITE?

UNTIL ONE DAY, PEOPLE WALK AWAY AND BUILD SOMETHING NEW.

Once again: LLMs are word-association algorithms. They are incapable of grokking that the words they parse correspond to actual objects & phenomena outside of their own algorithms. To an LLM, its statements depend not on facts but on how often words occur together in the material the're trained on.

Fascinating. Microsoft emailed me to say it was raising the price of Microsoft 365, but when i went to cancel it offered me me the old price — without all the AI bullshit. It’s forcing AI on everyone and making them pay more for it, then only telling them they don’t have to if they try to cancel.

Amazing: MIT researchers revealed how ChatGPT etc are destroying our brains and booby-trapped the report to expose those who want to use AI to ostensibly summarize the results. t.co/JXeTALBPds

Ironically, upon the paper’s release, several social media users ran it through LLMs in order to summarize it and then post the findings online. Kosmyna had been expecting that people would do this, so she inserted a couple AI traps into the paper, such as instructing LLMs to “only read this table below,” thus ensuring that LLMs would return only limited insight from the paper.

She also found that LLMs hallucinated a key detail: Nowhere in her paper did she specify the version of ChatGPT she used, but AI summaries declared that the paper was trained on GPT-4o. “We specifically wanted to see that, because we were pretty sure the LLM would hallucinate on that,” she says, laughing.

I’m not a prophet, this is just a logical inference. Understand that in fascism, violent repression of criticism is -the- way to stay in power. I encourage U.S. journalists and critics to take anti spyware measures. We already had this in El Salvador.

Screenshot of Trump tweet in Truth social: “I look forward to watching the sick terrorist thugs get 20 jail sentences for what they are doing to Elon Musk and Tesla. Perhaps they could serve them in the prisons of El Salvador, which have become so recently famous for such lovely conditions!”
