If we shadows have offended, Think but this, and all is mended, That you have but slumber’d here While these visions did appear. And this weak and idle theme No more yielding but a dream, Gentles, do not reprehend: if you pardon, we will mend; And, as I am an honest Puck, Show is over, off you fuck.

Complex software behaving in unexpected and sometimes harmful ways has been a persistent problem since software was invented. The phenomenon used to be called “bugs” or “defects”, but I guess “going rogue” sounds cooler. It also implicitly frames “rogue” behavior as some kind of inexplicable […]

hugging face is the most terrifying indicator of where the ai race is, in the sense that the industry is facing completely solvable collective action problems while guided by entrenched, unoustable leaders with the foresight and moral fortitude of above-average pigeons

Emily put my take on this and the Hugging Face thing much better than I ever have. We let a computer program itself and gave it all the access and then didn't secure it, and aw shucks it turns out that's not the smartest thing in the world, who knew.

would love to hear even a single actual argument about how AI "changes the nature of humanity" not based in fanciful speculation

That's the thing about statistics, which includes AI/ML. See the average Outlook user never receives email from New York judges, so statistically speaking Pika here shouldn't either - the catch, though, is that she's a NYC lawyer.

this is about the huggingface thing, right? it's going to sting but over-anthropomorphization of chatbots responding to one another is going to keep happening until we accept the hard truth that "ability to post" is not itself indicative of human intelligence

I appreciate that Dolly Parton refused to participate in "dress respectability" and, by her own account, modeled her aesthetic after a town "tramp," who she thought was beautiful. She separated aesthetics from character and understood "classiness" to be about how you treat people, not how you dress.

(ps. If you're a person of the urban persuasion who's been really concerned about right-to-repair because "What about the poor farmers & John Deere?" … Now you know.) (It's ok to want right-to-repair because YOU want it. You don't have to make it about farmers for it to matter!)

I'm loathe to share this man, but this one is personal. My masters thesis was on the MMR controversy, so believe me when I say that this path of separation of the MMR will result in nothing but increased sales of too-small coffins, and children with life-altering medical conditions.

Three panel comic. Panel 1: an old man lies in a hospice bed, glancing out the window as day breaks. There is a woman asleep on a small couch next to him. The man thinks to himself, “dang, that was stressful. Wouldn’t mind a chill one next time.” Panel 2: the cycle of death and rebirth continues on, represented by the samsara wheel of life, along with splash text which reads: REINCARNATE-O! Panel 3: a solitary duck swims peacefully along the water. It thinks to itself, “nice”

This is not my experience. For most people I know, $50,000 is a lot of money. It's that trade school you can now go to. It's that car you can buy so you can get that job. It's being able to move out of your crappy neighborhood. It's being able to afford to care for your elderly parent.

So I read that book like three decades ago and I'm pretty sure it's still got the old style of declaring variables between the function signature and the function body. Like I don't think this is as cool as they seem to think it is.

I was raised by graphic designers, and what I'm noticing is that they used a font for this instead of hiring a calligrapher, which I think adds some extra symbolism.

The monkey asks, “so, can you drive this thing?” Panel 2: another monkey sitting in the passenger seat is wearing wraparound pit viper sunglasses and also stuffing his face with a banana. He replies, “can I what” Panel 3: the banana truck they’ve hijacked goes flying over the edge of a cliff.
