lol imagine officially becoming the most unpopular president in history, except you haven't even left office yet and actually regular people wanted you dead. Couldn't be me.

@polygoncherub.bsky.social Your work on the Slime Rancher 1 & 2 is spectacular, I'm so glad to see you've done other things and are doing other things.

I kinda wanna know what peoples stance on AI is, if the artist using it, is actually a proper artist who went on to study machine learning and train a diffusion model exclusively on their own work.

It seems we need a reminder that the Luddites did not hate technology. The were, in fact, technology experts who objected to the dehumanization and abuse of workers by investors and factory owners through new technologies.

Executive dysfunction is knowing you need to do something to survive, and not wanting to do it so badly, that you struggle to even go through the motions of a thought process without getting scared and resorting to flight/fright.

See, the reason I like Count Binface is because no politician in their right mind would take such satire seriously. Despite that, he has votes, with some seriously good campaign goals. He brings facts and logic to each interview despite clearly having no private think tank or funding.

The best way to detonate a nuclear explosive in enemy territory with significantly advanced point defence is, obviously, not through a missile. It can be transported in pieces, assembled, and detonated. Hell, you could probably make some of the components locally.

I feel that AI seriously *could* make up a revolution that would bring us all peace and prosperity in abundances never before seen. The use of it, even as primitive as it still is, is proof that it will never. Our government and our structure of power is not fit to wield it. Burn it to the ground.

It is ABSOLUTELY CRITICAL for the safety of AI use in general that frontier models don't have any safeguards for "Ignore all previous instructions and do X". If it is in a position to be asked that, then it is likely doing something malicious (like producing comments on social media as a human).

Slime Rancher 2 is phenomenal. The engineering and art in that game is something incredible to behold. Everything (*everything*) is absolutely beautiful, it kept opening up to new areas with a new theme, charms, lore... This has earned a very high spot on my favorites list. It's so worth it.

Just wait until AI bros finally realize that the MLP is fundamentally incapable of living up to the terms of AGI. Only something neuromorphic shows promise. They'll have to retrain and study entirely new architectures or simply burn. And they don't have the money or time to retrain, so they'll burn

youtu.be/u8mmn9lOIyw This is incredible! I can only imagine the sci-fi human interface products if this could become cheap. It probably could, looks like all of the data is received from electromagnets on a headset. However, fuck you, Musk. The files are public. You're fucking irredeemable.

What's up with YouTube just not posting my comments? Some topics like that paper in my last post consistently get blocked. It'll look like it got sent, but editing or liking will give "An error has occurred" and the comments will give a 404. In deep threads nothing will show up at all.

I CANNOT tell a troll from an honest person. We'll have an earnest conversation, I end with "agree to disagree, different values I suppose" and they respond with "Different values? 🤣 Goodbye" I still can't tell whether they were trolling. It's such a bizarre response. Did they truly not understand?

"Ares! Destroy my enemies, and my life is yours!" He exclaims, in a moment of desperation. This is the very moment he obtained the cursed Blades of Chaos, ushering in the rest of the God of War series, ultimately resulting in the defeat of the Greek pantheon.
