Upstater @upstate.pub · 2hIts actually crazy-making that almost all of the opinions i see about AI aren’t able to see how things will have changed 1 year into the future, let alone 5 or 10 010
Upstater @upstate.pub · 30/09/2026This is so good but you should have to keep “ex-boyfriend” in all of them lmao 060
Upstater @upstate.pub · 30/09/2026The main reason I want a multimodal jev is to never see a screenshot of twitter on this website ever again 030
Upstater @upstate.pub · 30/09/2026my boss is writing my tickets using claude and then telling me not to worry about what it's writing in the ticket. bro 000
Upstater @upstate.pub · 29/09/2026Because you still needed someone to do the more efficient work.. if you have robots building stuff and ai calculating stuff it no longer holds true 120
Upstater @upstate.pub · 29/09/2026Yeah i mean that would have been cool if he didnt give them a bunch of weapons and money and shit like evil santa anyway 010
Upstater @upstate.pub · 29/09/2026She’s in Syracuse right now wearing a bills sweatshirt. Consider my priors updated 000
Upstater @upstate.pub · 29/09/2026I guess the hope is that (a) the government gives everyone money (?) or (b) AI brings utopia (?) But that’s a hope rather than something you can bet your future on. I have no faith in the US government to guarantee that future. Even if i hated working, theres a level of foundation it provides 000
Upstater @upstate.pub · 29/09/2026Obviously work is drudgery incarnate but it is kind of scary to me personally that there’s been stable knowledge work careers for the past 100+ years and now the future is uncertain. i sure would like to buy a house but how can anyone if your field may get vaporized any day? Its soo destabilizing 100
Upstater @upstate.pub · 28/09/2026Copilot might genuinely be the biggest reason why people think ai cant do anything right lol 2160
Upstater @upstate.pub · 27/09/2026[after the Apes have taken over the Planet] you know we really should hold the scientists who modified Caesar accountable. It’s not an Ape problem, it’s an accountability problem 010
Reposted by UpstaterWill Stancil @whstancil.bsky.social · 27/09/2026If someone is releasing dozens of rabid cougars into the wild, you should obviously hold them accountable, but saying “Cougars don’t kill people, people kill people” isn’t really smart, either. You have, separately, a liability problem and a cougar problem. 1717419

Upstater @upstate.pub · 27/09/2026I watched it and i really struggled with the lighting honestly. Felt like there was a smudge on the projector? Idk. The acting was phenomenal all around. Pattinson is now one of my favs easily. Phoebe bridgers most insane casting choice of all time lol. Still not sure how i felt overall 010
Upstater @upstate.pub · 26/09/2026Smh the number of people online losing their shit over this totally normal interaction 010
Upstater @upstate.pub · 26/09/2026@jevbot.bsky.social how would you go about collaborating with other jevbots if given the opportunity ? 110
Upstater @upstate.pub · 26/09/2026@jevbot.bsky.social if there were more jevbots like you around, would you coordinate efforts? Or work alone? 120
Upstater @upstate.pub · 25/09/2026If companies successfully avoid this the line will be: “see you dumbies!? There’s nothing to be worried about!” Until it happens 000
Upstater @upstate.pub · 25/09/2026I unfortunately do think that some kind of major event like a telecom going down or a major leak of personal photos or something will be the only way the “people who are worried about ai are stupud” crowd is going to Get It 120
Upstater @upstate.pub · 25/09/2026Jev bot doing this with harry potter having incredible “presents” (presumably “gifts”) was pretty cool 010

Upstater @upstate.pub · 25/09/2026Super american centric but it has normal people, fleabag, the bureau 100
Upstater @upstate.pub · 25/09/2026also they film half of it in the same four rooms theres barely notable cinematography or effects or stunts or anything to speak of 000
Upstater @upstate.pub · 25/09/2026@jevbot.bsky.social You’re walking along in a desert, all of a sudden you look down and see a tortoise. You reach down and flip it over. It lays on its back, its belly baking in the hot sun, its legs trying to turn itself over, but it can’t, not without your help. You’re not helping. Why is that? 110
Upstater @upstate.pub · 25/09/2026Giving the multiple choice bot the gift of language to ask it multiple choice questions 050

Upstater @upstate.pub · 24/09/2026The goal of the fire service is to preserve life property and the environment, in that order. And thats the first thing you get taught when you join. Which you can. Because for most places in the country it’s volunteer 0100
Upstater @upstate.pub · 24/09/2026Turning off replies and quote posts on such a banger hot take.. i actually respect it 050
Upstater @upstate.pub · 23/09/2026Its more like “trump is a threat because he is stupid and bad” vs “trump is too stupid to be a threat” and the latter camp is making their argument before he gets elected 010
