Heathcliff Panel:
Two birds are in a birdbath. One bird looks up and sees Heathcliff watching from the bushes wearing a bib that says 'Greg'. The bird says to the other whose back is turned "Just let it happen. We can't interfere with nature."New Yorker Panel:
Nature documentarians are filming penguins. One penguin walks up to the boom mic operator and takes his wallet. The videographer says "Watch yourself, Greg."

I had an apartment one time where they changed the system over while I was at work and the thermostat was on AC, so when I got home it was 107 in my apartment.

Or maybe they stole a truck full of fertilizer. "Not viable explosives" is a weird little phrase that makes me think about fuel oil or ammonium nitrate, but not combined.

Well, he's worth like $200 billion so if you asked the head of the team of people who handle his day-to-day affairs his address, the answer would probably be "which one?". Likewise, nobody probably ever calls him directly without being transferred by one of his people. Very relatable!

This is just Tesla all over again; professional investors have realized that the idiots are going to seize on every stupid little thing and change the price so now they're acting like idiots and making money doing it.

Everybody knows you can't lead a man to eat horsewater, you can only make him drink the two horses in the bush.

Also "superintelligence" already has a meaning and it's a hypothetical aspirational future thing. This is like changing the name of "going to Hoboken" to "going to Mars" and thinking that means something.

This is true, but I'm surprised and slightly pleased he seems uninterested in the AI companies' "AI is so dangerous that you need to allow us to all collude despite antitrust law and also please outlaw all our competitors or everyone will die" proposal. Their bribe checks must have bounced.

He wrote several artistically brilliant novels early in his career but then the best part of him died in a freak accident and with outside help he remade himself into a much less compelling, much more popular author who has grown increasingly shitty and self-indulgent over the decades?

What he really wanted was a big prosthetic forehead he could wear on his real head, but the light-up prosthetic arm was a close second.

People keep whining about mortality like it's some big problem, but the truth is nobody alive today has ever died, not even once.

I found a cool number on the internet the other day, and it looks like it's used all over the place, even by vacation models on Tiktok. Apparently it's called "4".

Though I will note and warn that the reason we're hearing so much about this from the people who actually did the thing is because this is part of a PR campaign on their part to get the Trump administration to ban self-hostable open-weights models, which are their competition.

Yeah, the story here is not so much "new superintelligent AI can hack anything" but "LLM + parallelization + access to tools means anyone with relatively-modest resources can deploy the equivalent of a nation-state APT against any target".

That’s a pretty compelling pitch, though; real, non-ai readers may be pulsing with plenty of goo, but very little of it is eldritch.

I will say the onions are nice, though - they're chopped up with the potatoes and fried with them. Scattered, smothered, covered is my order but I respect chunked enjoyers. There are several other options but we don't discuss those.
