AnActualWizardIRL @shayneo.bsky.social · 2h1/ On the Star Talk podcast, comedian Chuck Nice is definitely the MPV. On the "Why we havent reached super intelligence", the guest David Krakauer discusses entropy and AI, and Chuck sort of makes the throwaway observation "like entropy in the culture?, AI slop". Krakauer seems blown away by that. 100

AnActualWizardIRL @shayneo.bsky.social · 31/08/2026It must be so demoralizing working at a big AAA or AA game studio, and you've built this beautiful groundbreaking game, and then the C Suite turns up and says "Ok, strip that cool aesthetic out, and put in a bunch of glittery gooner skins that we're gonna sell as DLC" 120
AnActualWizardIRL @shayneo.bsky.social · 13/08/2026I just realised theres a really weird parallel between the old US slave economy and the proposed AI economy. Slavery was sold to whites as a way to erase the class divide by providing "free" labor which would raise all boats. Now, I'm not saying AI is enslaved, just noting the sales pitch. 100
