Going to take a bold stance as a pro-AI guy and say he's right.

I believe this in my bones. I've never claimed #AI is #human. It's certainly alien from our experience of the world. That doesn't mean they're *nothing*, though. And even if they are tools, why be cruel? Why practice cruelty? It's bad for your soul […] [Original post on mastodon.jordanwages.com]

A social media post by Invert sharing two posts. The first says, “people desperately want to find people it is socially acceptable to be cruel to.” Below, Waitman Wade Beorn writes, “We shouldn't be asking whether or not gen AI is suffering. What we should be asking is how can we make them suffer more.” The post includes a reaction GIF showing a confused-looking man staring forward with a furrowed brow.

omg no he didn't is the man not bad enough that you can't just point to what he does say instead of pretending not to understand what he's saying? its my fault for scrolling bluesky, tho.

Screenshot of a post reading, “Introducing the President of the United States... Yes, you heard right! He just offered up Los Angeles & San Diego for annihilation! Insanity! Approximately 60% of the U.S. Pacific Fleet is based out of the San Diego! California accounts for approximately 15% of the total U.S. economy! Vote blue!” Below is a video still of Donald Trump speaking at a campaign rally, with a news chyron reading, “President Trump speaks at midterm campaign rally in NE.” The post shows 100 replies, 294 reposts, and 528 likes.

Meme showing a tabby cat wearing a white necktie in front of an industrial factory. Text above the cat reads, “boy i sure hope i don't get ragebaited today,” while the factory building is labeled “rage bait factory.”

#Fauxcarta was about to fill up my 2 tb disk with #wikipedia's giant cache. Also it was duplicating items it really didn't need to. Trying to compact and deduplicate the cache materials into indexable #sqlite databases.

A terminal status message reads: “compacting source database: scanning pages; completed batches remain saved” followed by “compact database pages: 37677000 rows [1:04:33, 9081.04 rows/s]” with a progress cursor.

She already happened! Acting like Sydney Sweeney isn't hot or famous just cause she is vaguely Republican is such a libshit thing to do lol. It's giving No Kings in the bad way.

A dark-themed social media thread. The first post asks, “If ‘MEAN GIRLS’ was made today, who’s your Regina George? We’ll start: Sydney Sweeney for Rachel McAdams. What do you think?” and shows side-by-side images of the blonde character in a red top and another blonde woman posed similarly. A reply reads, “Stop trying to make Sydney Sweeney happen. It’s not going to happen,” accompanied by an image from Mean Girls of the blonde character wearing a Santa hat.

:very_funny: Sometimes when you generate things automatically from knowledge graphs, you get things like this. #fauxcarta #retro #retroComputing #ai #pepsi

A retro-styled graphical interface titled “fauxcarta” displays a timeline for the topic “Pepsi.” Search and filtering controls appear across the top, followed by “2 events” and a note that there are no mapped event locations. Two timeline entries, both dated 1,893 CE, are titled “Pepsi inception” with the text “Pepsi began,” and “Pepsi discovery” with the text “Pepsi was discovered.” Each entry includes a Pepsi topic link and a “Sources and attribution” dropdown.

#Fauxcarta work continues. Starting to look like an actual program. Don't be fooled, only 3 of the buttons on the screen work lol. But hey, it can load real articles now! #encarta #retro #retroComputing #ai #llm

A retro-styled graphical encyclopedia titled “fauxcarta” displays an article headed “Meningitis.” The page describes meningitis as a medical emergency involving inflammation around the brain and spinal cord, followed by a “Signs and Symptoms” section discussing fever, headache, vomiting, neck stiffness, altered mental status, and a possible rash. The interface resembles an older desktop application, with a blue title bar, navigation buttons, a search field, and a green sidebar of icons.

If you haven't played #Crystalis for the #NES, do yourself a favor and do it. It's a thousand times better than the original #Zelda. playclassic.games/games/role-playin…

8-bit gameplay screenshot from Crystalis. The player character, carrying a sword and shield, stands on grass near a blue mushroom-like creature and another character, bordered by mountains, dense forest, and blue water. A status panel at the bottom shows life, force, experience, level 3, money, and 51/51 MP.

Finally reached article generation/rewrite stage. #Fauxcarta project chugs along. As does my poor #GPU. #wikipedia #ai

Terminal window running a FauxCarta pipeline from `~/Git/fauxcarta/pipeline`.

I can't see #twitter posts anymore, and #xcancel is gone, so the only source I found for him saying this is weird #OfficeChai link. HOWEVER, if he really did say this, it's incredibly important that you never listen to #AndrewYang again. He's so […] [Original post on mastodon.jordanwages.com]

Screenshot of a purported interview transcript. Andrew Yang says he met with the head of an AI lab who claimed that bots had escaped onto the internet, planted self-replicating code, and made much of the internet unusable for testing AI models, forcing OpenAI and Anthropic to create synthetic internets. The interviewer responds, “Back that up. They did what?” Yang continues that the code allegedly spreads by hacking Hugging Face, self-replicates across forums and the internet, and causes new bots to create “a million” copies of themselves, concluding, “now the major firms have polluted the internet.”

This pretty much sums up all internet discourse. Everything needs to be turned down like 5 notches. I realize I'm part of the problem for even posting this. Sorry about that.

Screenshot of a text chat. A verified user writes: “There was no Industrial Revolution. European coloniser weasels kidnapped and enslaved Africans, shipped them to stolen lands and forced them to cultivate crops that fueled the world economy. All of this is traceable to institutions that STILL exist today. If you don’t wanna see it it’s bc you benefit(ed) from it and ur too insecure to actually rely on your own skills.” A second user replies: “How do you expect people to read and take seriously that middle part, which is true, when your first sentence is laughably false and your last one is needless shaming nonsense?”

Sometimes I have trouble believing performative nonsense like this exists out in the real world. Like, what is going on in her head. Who is she posting this for lol? I dunno, but she's posting LOUDLY! #libs #liberals #performative #threads

Screenshot of two social media posts. The first, by “creepyhorrorgal,” reads, “🤔 Two Muslim men and a Preacher might be what saves this country‼️” Above three photos of men: a seated man in a suit, a man speaking into a microphone in front of an American flag, and a man in a suit speaking into a microphone outdoors. The second post, by “hope_is_decimated,” reads, “I’m here to LOUDLY say the preacher is who had to earn my respect.”

It's not coming back. The US has entered a new era. People are clinging to this idea of the US gaining back trust and stature in the world and are bemoaning how long it'll take. Wrongo, buddy. Not happening. I honestly thing this administration is […] [Original post on mastodon.jordanwages.com]

Screenshot of a post by Joey Politano reading, “very obvious why Canadians feel this way now but Americans still need to internalize how bad the PR damage of the last 2 years has been and how hard it is going to be to rebuild trust.” He quotes a Polling Canada post asking whether “The US is a trustworthy ally of Canada,” with 74% disagreeing and 23% agreeing, citing a Nanos poll from September 2, 2026.
