This is the coolest girl around and I want to be her friend so bad

girlscouts What happens when a pet owner doesn't have the information they need to properly care for a reptile?
Gold Award Girl Scout Sicilia saw how a lack of education could impact reptiles and local ecosystems, so she took action. For her #gsGoldAward project, she created educational videos focused on proper bearded dragon care and shared what she learned with younger Girl Scouts through presentations on responsible pet ownership.
By making reliable care information more accessible, Sicilia created a resource that can continue helping reptile owners make informed choices long after her project. *t

People forget, Katie Britt is a former Chief of Staff. She would be in charge of putting these talking points together in her early career. This was a massive fumble. (I jokingly was looking for a young man in a suit with a box of his belongings today).

It's very important that none of us share her name. Not even in "awareness" of what has been done to her. Not in sharing images of her doxxing. She's Jane Doe unless *she* chooses not to be. Then, we pursue vengeance against all rapists & their enablers until none of them are fucking left.

This is going to be RILLLLY embarrassing when all the “Artificial Intelligence” companies need govt bailouts andTrump won’t do it until they change the name. (I mean he won’t do it anyway, he’ll figure out some way to screw them over)

I actually don't think the Republican Senator mixed up "Hawks" and "Hawkeyes." Going by his own statements, it appears his staff saw he went to a basketball game on that date and googled basketball games and found the only men's game that night in the whole country was in Atlanta.

funny to me that last year taylor lorenz was privately trying to suggest i was being funded by peter thiel after we got into an argument over her shitty takes, and now she’s literally running cover for him saying being evil is good. quite a journey she’s on.

Taylor Lorenz: "Listening to this whole interview and these comments in context you see he is actually making a pretty nuanced point. You can criticize him all u want but taking clips out of context to manufacture outrage is so lame— critique what he actually said!"

A thing I learned not too long ago is that when an LLM selects a token that leads it down an incorrect path (factually), it has no way to back up, or even know that it should back up, it's just on to the next likely bit. Literally every LLM is just posting their way through it. What an image.

My latest cartoon for @newscientist.com

A figure stands in a barren landscape; reaches for the lever on a large, eccentric contraption covered in wires, pipes, dials and buttons; looks over towards two figures inside a bunker and says:

"'Trust me, it's safe' would sound a lot more reassuring if you weren't saying it from inside a concrete bunker."

The people making generative AI are in a millenarian cult based on a Harry Potter fanfic and heavily subsidized by Jeff Epstein in its beginning, that is a death cult by day and a rape cult by night. And they make zero effort to hide any of this, they count on you going no fucking way that's weird

No. Federal appropriations law has long barred using taxpayer funds for political advertising.

it’s come to my attention that my tumblr post has been crossposted to bluesky, so I’m posting it on my account here #AntiAI #GenAI

recently my friend's comics professor told her that it's acceptable to use gen AI for script-writing but not for art, since a machine can't generate meaningful artistic work. meanwhile, my sister's screenwriting professor said that they can use gen AI for concept art and visualization, but that it won't be able to generate a script that's any good. and at my job, it seems like each department says that AI can be useful in every field except the one that they know best.

It's only ever the jobs we're unfamiliar with that we assume can be replaced with automation. The more attuned we are with certain processes, crafts, and occupations, the more we realize that gen AI will never be able to provide a suitable replacement. The case for its existence relies on our ignorance of the work and skill required to do everything we don't.
