What I find interesting about this line is that it’s an admission in order for this to happen, they need you to lose your ordinary intelligence that you already have.
This is why they want to get into schools. They want kids to lose basic capacity so that they have to rent it forever.
This is to say: if you're an attorney who's hesitated to take on habeas cases because you think you lack the knowledge, or you're worried about whether you'll really help, I PROMISE you can make a difference. I'm just a dipshit with a 7-year-old laptop and a bad attitude. If I can do it, so can you.
Sorry I'm not more open-minded about LLMs, it's just some fucking maniacs shoveled out a bunch of useless bloatware featuring that technology, did not give me any chance to opt out, reorganized the entire economy around it, zeroed out gains made by green energy, and made it impossible to buy RAM
'Resistance is futile' is what I always say when I have a very good idea that will improve things and people love

It’s great (derogatory) that you can work very hard to find out something incredibly important, and the main response you will get is a derisive “Gee, I’m shocked.”
Somebody has to ACTUALLY DO THIS WORK! You can’t pursue justice by going “Your honor: I mean, duh.”
I miss Europe
he's stealing billions of dollars of taxpayer money for his personal slush fund
the most corrupt, criminal administration in history and despite how high a bar that is it isn't particularly close
imo this isn't the biggest problem w/ the story. yeah there will be some people who do this, but they were already doing that stuff. the bigger issue is the fact that Wildlight presented as a fully solvent studio, had Tencent backing and still folded like a card table after launch, likely on purpose
kotaku is a good website staffed by good people and it is really maddening and perplexing to me the way right wingers think a perpetually understaffed video game blog is responsible for everything they hate
