iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

Jon, look. I respect you a lot but there are qualifications for that job. You gotta either marry into F1 or have a flamboyant Italian accent. Not everyone realizes this, but Colombian accents also count as Italian, if you speak Spanish already.

This is interesting. People who misunderstand what a thought process even is lack info on mine, so are hallucinating one just like their computers do. Meanwhile, they do seem to support or excuse a notorious trillionaire pedophile. “Unironically”!

Mike, if you know what psychological projection is I think this is a moment you might want to have a pause and think. Yes, of course all LLMs are tainted. It’s a CSAM generator with a feature that helps fake developers steal code. “I only read it for the articles” - sure, Jan.

000

I dunno Mike, I suppose the difference is fact vs hallucination. I like to be 100% sure. So tell me, do you tell your autocomplete girlfriend to act like baby or mommy?

I usually hire, manage and pay them because I’m a Senior Product Manager by trade, but I have fun contributing to some open source projects myself, so yes, I am a better developer than any child-fancying LLM pervert on this website.

I appreciate this, thanks. But as a BlueSky pedant I gotta add that “terraforming” means “making like Earth” and this is technically the opposite of that.

“Hugging Face” matters not because of what the LLM did, but because the investigation revealed it’s all Sam Altman’s fault. There was no malfunction. Just a criminal psychopath who literally programmed his computer to do crimes.

000

You guys can tell I’m not a minor?

This post has apparently given everyone with an autocomplete girlfriend a seizure, like the mythical strobing Pokemon episode. Apparently humans writing books is immoral now. Congrats indie authors: everybody’s got a fatwa now!

Meh, I think pedophiles and white-supremacists are bad, agree to disagree.

Before AI, we had to say “cloud” every time we addressed a superior. That meant data centers too. This stuff isn’t going away, but I do hope the criminally insane sex cult leadership gets replaced by literally anybody else.

000

Lulz indeed, but fwiw this is is the ‘correct’ way for Capitalists in software to think about business, as opposed to the clinical psychosis that Altman and his literal doomsday sex cult have communicated to our economy. TBH, these Splunk kids made me nostalgic for a simpler kind of overlord.

Just formally requested my own degree be rescinded. After 15 years of debt to Cornell it kinda feels like lighting $75k on fire, but I remind myself that not one single employer in 20 years has verified or even asked.

This is gonna come as a shock to you Tom, but most people don’t like it.

Sheepflame @sheepflame.bsky.social · 9h

Did an LLM tell you that?

000

Sheepflame @sheepflame.bsky.social · 9h

Easy: yes, that weasel should be bullied until they go away. Society only functions if you’re allowed to shame pedophiles, white-supremacists, and the fake developers who fund them.

Found another “mute me!” pervert. Ok, Justin. Muted. Hope that did it for you.

My brother got leukemia and immediately accepted all religions like the henchman in The Mummy (99). To my knowledge, he only had a friendly chat with a rabbi, but he did have a Mongolian shaman bind his spirit to a rock. Now he’s cancer-free, so I think we can confidently say it’s not Catholicism.

Agree about disposable literature, which I think ‘genre’ and self-publishing both welcome and correlate with. Though romantasy has included elite entries since Stoker started it in 1897 - it’s just an insanely large haystack that takes a community of niche fans to sift.

000

Now you’re asking the right questions. That is genuinely a brilliant idea. Feed me the blood. Sorry! You’re right, that was wrong. You clearly stated that the goat should not be bathed in blood until the sixth seal has been broken. I’ve fixed it in 665 places, ready for your review.

Surely you don’t mean the people who lynched the Turkish inventor of labor.

Fun fact: there’s a song that every radio station has played every day since 1991, and nobody’s heard it. It’s called “What You Give” by a ‘band’ called “Tesla” and it was designed with complex subliminal melodies that force brains to tune it out. Your ears actually are picking up sound.

Great joke, no criticism here, but it sucks that the proto-MAGA Republican incel Bundy was indeed at that time actively murdering the people he blamed for his resentment. The dad was safe because he was a dude.

Deep gratitude for @governor.ny.gov’s response to the horrific crime at my alma mater. Justice has been denied for years, but women have been taking damage for far longer and we need more than proportionate punishment. In 2006 I felt I had to de-pledge my Cornell frat to safely opt-out.

Globalism’s weird. The US bombs Iran for no reason and now AppleTV and Formula 1 are insisting that Bahrain is in Malaysia. And maybe it is. Who can say anymore?

Come on man, if you’re gonna challenge a rapper’s credibility there are rules.

Washington didn’t think it was inevitable, and the Constitution was arguably his conspiracy, kicked-off at his house, to replace the Articles’ government. Madison wrote it, but Washington was more or less the client. Did they just bungle it?

Also I agree it would be nice to have a doctor’s take on “does the Constitution really force this system or is this a self-fulfilling resignation to it?” I accept the conventional wisdom for now I guess.

A not-too-controversial premise here I’m asserting here is that the US’ center is a notch or two to the right of everyone else’s. I also assume this is more to do with current politics/economics than historical national vibes.

I know I should consult a doctor, but it’s looked to me like the Euros manage to keep their centre-left and centre-right truly centre by allowing radicals to slosh into other parties and back without losing coalition. Also maybe challenges tendency of people to default to parents’ party.

Alumni donations are not correlated with degrees, they’re correlated with memories of the glory of sexual license.

Cornell frats are an economic/sex phenomenon. Having rape-culture clubs both attracts and repels prospective students. The degree to which they’re regulated, how that regulation would happen, the effects Cornell’s worried about: all financial.

Economic deregulation is always a sex thing. The Effective Altruism sex cult that runs every frontier AI company. Epstein. Reagan. All a bunch of freaks who mainly wanna change penis law.

As someone who ‘depledged’ a Cornell frat I am actually bolstered this week by a strange hope. The whole “criminals only had to write essays” thing isn’t about Cornell being weak dorks, it’s about them allowing the Panhellenic clubs to self-regulate. Big parallels with *gestures widely*.

Jay Leno’s Law won’t bring him back, but if it prevents one more horrific car accident, it will be a fitting memorial.

When I saw ‘Men in Black’ in theaters as a kid, I thought the body-snatcher alien jerking around was cleverly funny, but it also lived in my head and gave me recurring nightmares. Now people are remembering that character and making a fun meme of it, but at what cost?

High-key: I come to bury Biden, not praise him. I’m just thinkin ‘bout epic tragedy qua epic tragedy, and for no reason at all, the fall of empires. The gift of Western Civilization isn’t a model of piratical conquest, it’s a dragon’s hoard of cautionary tales.

000

Biden’s low-key the fatally flawed hero of myth. I thought it was a curse at first, specifically Cassandra’s, but it’s the classic hubris that manifests in exactly one fatal way: he cannot control narrative. He did some policy I truly hate, but I attribute that to his fear of his flaw.

No judgement or argument, just curious: are you saying you like the OP prefer to listen to personalized AI songs, or that you know a culture of other people who do?

100

Haha that’s right, Canadians are maritime - go jump in the sea, Alberta! Oh wait, you can’t.

I don’t think we’ve gotten to the bottom this yet. My prediction? It was Hawk Tuah Girl at a basketball game in Missouri with a lead pipe.
