Visiting San Francisco and I have seen 0 Claude ads. This isn't the tech-bro haven I was promised.

It is creepy in a funny way much like many Black Mirror episodes. In fact it is like if Charlie Brooker made a children's film.

I think what's great about this film is that it's so darkly funny, I think it'll traumatize a lot of kids but how morbid it is is completely hilarious as an adult. I was traumatized by Monsters Inc so I imagine that's what it was like watching it for the first time as an adult.

Of course I think the anime version would have been better lol and I can see where that comes from in the final version. And uncultured swine on Twitter keep saying this is "Ghibli vibes" when it's clearly extreme Tezuka.

Actually I REALLY fucking loved this movie. It's so fucking crazy. Easily Pixar's greatest artistic achievement in like 15 years. Probably its only one.

Watched Hoppers. I really liked it. Especially its main villain Gavin Newsom.

Congrats Caz!

Like the original description of the Memex in 1945 too

The problem is that all capabilities are tangential to each other and not guaranteed. A text predictor can't form motion skills or do things in real-time, but ideally you'd ask the text predictor (If it were super-intelligent) to create the system that can.

like idk if that's going to happen, but I don't think that there's been yet a super-intelligent text predictor and there's a chance it never happens.

There's a sort of tangential direction where "text predictors" get about as good as humans and media synthesis creates a convincingly conscious digital entity, but it doesn't result in it being much smarter than humans. Perhaps more capable in some areas.

I need people to entertain the possibility that text predictors don't become super-intelligent just for one second.

I don't usually weigh into the AI consciousness debates because it is obvious that

And you know they don't believe it because they're actively fucking using Claude and Anthropic's products in the Iran war.

Absolutely 0 people involved in this whole deal, observers, users, companies that use Claude, no one believes that Claude or Anthropic is a security risk or a "supply-chain risk". No one. It's peak hyper-normalisation.

The craziest thing about this is how fake everyone knows it is. Everyone knows it. They know it. Anthropic knows it. Everyone who uses Claude knows it. All just a whiny act.

But will it have high taste?

It's pretty cool that I completely forget about this show as soon as it ends so that when a new season releases it's a welcome surprise.

if businesses had been held liable for transmissions, so many millions more would be alive.

but alas, better that a million die than one business be forced to install working HVAC.

There's probably nothing more uncertain than a major public health crisis that involves the entire world, so I have sympathy for some of the most extreme measures being put early. I think eventually the whole thing devolved into "the virus wasn't real, it was a conspiracy."

If anything the Covid response wasn't strict enough and people were waaay too tolerant of people deciding not to get vaccinated.

There are still people doing this alternate reality game where the virus didn't exist and mass events being cancelled for a year was the worst transgression ever and deserves the raging fury and retribution of conservatives.

It's funny how there was never anything wrong with the Covid response except that the vaccine saved millions of lives, the virus was real and contagious, and masking worked, but it somehow injured conservative's egos so they're retconning it to make it the worst thing ever.

Trump people like Pete Hegseth don't care nearly as much about killbots as authoritarianism. The Anthropic conflict isn't about a negotiation, it's about making a show of rejecting the idea of consensual trade altogether.

Google News did what I wanted and I didn't even see any announcement about it anywhere

What I see in common in all the people who think the Anthropic thing is irrational is that they believe AI is a normal technology like a car or a computer or a nuclear bomb.

The great thing about conservatives is that they never fucking solve anything or make the world a better place but they do come up with a bunch of fucking stupid nonsense to make the world more shit and then take credit for those who fix it.
