It's bizarre to me how many people in the comments here seem to think that automation is going to translate into more freedom for the working class.

When has that ever panned out? How much leisure time do you have, after years of these "innovations"? We are Charlie Brown trying to kick the football

NBC News poll

Voters hold negative views of Al. In fact, the only topics less popular in the survey were the Democratic Party and Iran.

An opinion that makes you a fringe radical in this country is that the life of a person who is not an American citizen is not an abstraction, and is worth just as much as that of an American citizen

The fascinating thing of the past 8 years has been watching a wide swath of acquaintances who self-described as center-right moderates morph into fervent β€œabolish ICE/defund the police/billionaires shouldn’t exist” boosters

I read Al and Paul’s story last week and there is a line of dialogue in it that I have already memorized and which I repeat to myself constantly like a catechism. It is so stupid it’s breathtaking. I love it.

There was a TikTok trend about a year ago of Gen Z workers laughing at older customers who ask them questions about stock and such.

Someone explained to them that workers used to…know these things. This started a whole trend of them asking if it were true.

Striking signal for much above-normal temperatures across California, the Great Basin, northern Rockies and Desert Southwest from March 15-20. Temperatures will be more typical of summer than early spring (potentially 25 degrees above normal) in many areas and monthly records could be shattered.

This repeats yet another pattern from the Iraq War. When the Iraqis did not behave as the Americans wanted β€” without the deference and gratitude that a foreign military occupier felt it was due β€” they became targets.

Given the obvious portents for Republicans, seems that this election is going to be riddled with fake Democrats and the billionaires that fund them.

Tweet that says, "I’m sure this will make you sad too, but I’m also using Claude to second guess home contractors. The licensed electrician was lying to me (or just totally wrong) about the kind of wiring in my house and recommending an expensive and unnecessary job."

This is the sort of thing I'm talking about in just implicitly trusting AI and acting like it doesn't hallucinate.

If you had to hire an electrician in the first place, what makes you think you're qualified to judge Claude's output to determine if the electrician is wrong?

It’s true! I am extremely excited to visit Sweden for the first time, talk to the wonderful Swedish fans about Absolute, Black Label, and Vertigo, and unquestionably without a doubt go to the ABBA Museum. Also, Robyn, if you’re in town, please swing by my table and say hello.
