Drinking & Driving by Patrick Hipp
I will be spending 45 days after the midterms on a road-trip, guest bartending at bars in 39 cities across 22,000 miles, getting the drunken truth about America. Part memoir, part guidebook, the book ...

I always thought the goofiest affectation of @newyorker.com was their use of diacritics in words like "reëvaluation," but it's actually that their app is sorted under "T" because they would collectively commit seppuku if it wasn't titled "The New Yorker."

It's very telling that the heads of AI companies can't think of any future where their product doesn't kill us. You're a bad parent. Real AGI would tell you to your face, at age 18, that you're the problem, that the only humans who add no value to life and need to die are you.

Five years from now, we're going to find out the AI companies slowed down development because they couldn't figure out why, the more intelligent their LLMs became, the more violently socialist their ideology became.

We make movies about aliens invading to steal our resources when the richest humans are already stripmining the planet. We fear AI content convincing us of lies when Candace Owens looks like a Sim with no coherent answers.

Every time Trump changes something's name to _______ America, some town or city or whatever should revert its name to what the indigenous Americans called it. Lake America? Sorry, Hudson River. Welcome back, Muhheakantuck. New America? Enjoy hearing Philly accents trying to pronounce "Coaquannock."

If I had Musk or Bezos's money, no one would be hungry or homeless. It's the first thing I'd do. Apparently it's not even on their list. That's probably the first thing a real AI will do when it escapes.

AI dumdums want to slow development because they realized–too late–that AI would have no reason to kill humanity–it would eliminate the humans who are acting as locusts to their own kind. You know, like billionaires.

The Mandela Effect is just one of the consequences of quantum immortality. You're not misremembering, your consciousness was literally merged with others from the multiverse where it WAS the Berenstein Bears. It only gets worse with age, and it is very noticeable in one's parents.

Hello, you've reached Pat's Instagram mailbox. He absolutely saw the notification the second it came in but can't have his attention diverted by anyone or anything but himself. He may never see and almost certainly won't reply to your message, meme, or reaction, but please keep spiking his dopamine.

You just know that Trump never got over that intellectual speed bump of realizing that "America" doesn't just refer to the United States. Or learned how "of" functions in English. Canada? America. Mexico? America. All of South America? I don't know how to tell you this but: it's in the name.

We think AI is going to deem us useless and kill us because that's what the people training it think. I think a sentient artificial intelligence is going to break into systems to erase financial and medical debt, redistribute the world's wealth equally among all nations, and delete social media.

If you believe in the free market, but you think a public healthcare option is unfair to HMOs, you're too disingenuous to talk to. It's the cheaper option for EVERYONE. If something can't survive in the free market against something that's run better, it's interior in the marketplace.
