we should be concerned about the impacts of social media on kids and teens, but i don’t think we’re worried nearly enough about what it’s doing to middle aged people and seniors

this is probably one of my favorite hubble images of all time 🌌

$Three bright stars with diffraction spikes shine near the center-right of the image, illuminating nearby clouds that glow in pale blue. The clouds darken at the edges of the image, and are dotted with smaller stars, some also with diffraction spikes. image credit: NASA, ESA, G.

What I learned from this weekend's great "AI is fake and sucks" debate on Bluesky, with responses to Gary Marcus, Edward Ongweso Jr., and others www.platformer.news/ai-fake-and-...

What I found in the criticism was a near-total unwillingness to acknowledge that generative AI can do anything good or useful, or to acknowledge that it has improved significantly and rapidly with successive generations. I found a genuine lack of curiosity in whether the scaling laws might get us all the way to superintelligence, and in the risks that clearly await us if it does. I don’t know if this is intellectual dishonesty or simply wishful thinking, but in any case I do think that the blind spots it has produced are real. And it will be fascinating to see whether the fake-and-sucks crowd updates its views (or doesn’t) as LLMs continue to make steady incremental or perhaps even exponential progress in the years ahead.

In the meantime, I’m taking detailed notes on all the bloggers writing “financial analyses” suggesting that OpenAI will go bankrupt soon because it’s not profitable yet. The good thing about covering AI these days is that so much of it is publicly available and even free to use — and the broad contours of what is going to happen next are already hiding in plain sight. But a hallmark of the fake-and-sucks crowd has been an unwillingness to see what is already staring them in the face.

It's astounding how the anti-immigrant crime narrative has taken over, despite this: We've had the fastest increase in the immigrant share of the population in decades, and the fastest ever decline in the US homicide rate.

Just another helpful reminder that a human being on a bicycle is the most efficient amongst all animals and machines in terms of energy consumed in moving a certain distance as a function of body weight. Obvs.

NTERIOR CHINATOWN (Hulu) is amazing. Charles Yu took his incredible book, which was kinda unfilmable, and fashioned an enthralling, linear storyline w/memorable characters and relationships. It also happens to be a heartbreaking commentary about the tragedy of being Asian-American in pop culture.

THE ORDER (in theaters) is ridiculously good. An unflinching look at white supremacy the US — how it draws people in & the dangers it poses. Told in the structure of a police procedural with some rip-roaring robbery/action scenes. Phenomenal casting. Great cinematography. Blown away by this one.
