Over a year ago I met an Anthropic employee at a conference and at one point she mentioned that one of the things she was working on was whether or not it was cruel to ever turn off an AI model. I thought she was joking. She was not.

Yeah well after Dobes got that softy earflier in the game, that was easy to call it on the other end

This has been a legitimately painful game to watch

This is your occasional reminder that generative "AI" in particular could have been developed on public domain materials and/or licensed and compensated works but the major players intentionally, methodically and systemically chose to steal labor from working creative folks instead

When was the last time the press ran a story about republicans making intemperate remarks about democrats? Fretting about whether republicans are doing enough to be bipartisan, to reach out to the forgotten voters who favor the democrats?

I'm convinced AI is our generation's radium - a discovery with genuinely useful applications in specific, controlled circumstances that we stupidly put in everything from kid's toys to toothpaste until we realised the harm far too late where future generations will ask if we were out of our minds.

I've heard people make claims that AI would lead to a new Renaissance, but I didn't imagine it'd happen like this:

Screenshot of a Tweet from Pope Leo XIV. It reads:

"In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgen to distinguish human art from what machines produce. There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack the spark of humanity. For this reason, the Church wishes to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity."

I would like to point out that the Carolina Hurricanes are 0-2 in games where a mic'd-up ref says "What's better than this" to the camera in an extremely soulless manner

For that matter, why isn't Election Day a national holiday/day off? It's one of our most important rights, but being on a *Tuesday* means a lot of people think it's inconvenient to vote.

Paramount and Warner Bros. shaped over a century of culture. By combining them, we aren't rewriting history — we're equipping these iconic studios with a more powerful engine. Together, we are Skydance: a creative-first ho Show

I've had a full 24 hours to sit on it. Final Fantasy XVI might be the most disappointing game I've played in a long, long time. I finished it. I've at least played through every FF mainline game twice. I will not be revisiting XVI.

Yeah this kinda reinforces my thought

Tommy Watson @trwatsoniv.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

...I don't think they have anything to be cocky about yet. That wasn't their best game either sooooo yeah. I'd pump the brakes if I were them. 😆

Tommy Watson @trwatsoniv.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

And honestly? Bussi looked pretty damn great. Was curious to see how he would come out this season. Rest of the team? Yeah, gonna take a game or 2 to get that rust out.
