"I think the LLM is conscious" makes a lot more sense when you realize a lot of people don't grasp the interiority of other people.
If you view other people as a series of inputs and utilities, it makes a lot of sense that you would see inert code awaiting your prompt as conscious.
this is like
the thesis statement of our times
there's so much bad in the world but there's also people who lift up and carry an elderly bat around every day so he can pretend he's flying again, and that's the part of the world I think is worth fighting for
Sony is testing dynamic pricing right now on its store.
Dynamic pricing is giving people around the world different prices bases on stuff like purchase history data, location, inventory, demand, time of day, weather, and income level.

I have fallen into a very nice loop:
Play Marathon w/ the homies, and then when everyone logs off... pour myself a drink and read through all the codex entries I unlocked.
I've always been fascinated by Destiny lore, but I left so many Lore books unread, so making this a habit now, at launch, is 👌
DHS claimed "an ICE agent had fired 'defensive shots' into Martinez's vehicle after Martinez 'intentionally ran over' another agent."
But body cam video now "shows that Martinez's vehicle, a blue Ford Fusion, was stationary or going at a very low rate of speed when he was fatally shot."
Screenshot from Demon Turf, a classically styled 3D platformer. The main character Beebz is a young demon girl, standing upon a wooden dock, with various obstacles and behind her. Beebz is a 2D sprite, while the world around her is rendered in a lower poly style.

(Feels like a long lost Dreamcast / PS1 era platformer, and all that that entails -- looking forward to Demon Tides!)
Great to know their CEO doesn't even understand how AI works. It's not anxious because it's conscious, dumbass. It's anxious because you've been scraping the social media of users living and posting through fucking unstable times.

tech CEO in 2026: My computer has anxiety.
venture capitalist in 2026: Here, have 200 billion more dollars.
child in 2006: My NeoPet is angry at me.
mom in 2006: No it isn't sweetie, go to bed.
mom to dad in 2006: We have an idiot boy. Our boy is a little idiot person. It's too late to fix him.
These are the 4 things AI can do well:
•Clean up your email inbox (badly)
•Give my shittiest neighbor (Alan) something to talk about at a party
•Tell a 12 yr old to kill himself
•Incinerate a school at 10:16 AM on a Tuesday
You can see why we need to base our economy around it

A DOJ source says FBI agents found the woman who accused Trump of sexually assaulting her as a child to be credible:
"They would not have interviewed her four times if they thought she was lying."
Unfortunately, “Yo brother, legal team confirmed we can’t work with minors rn” is an instant classic

Oh damn, a chance to appreciate @writnelson.bsky.social putting himself into his music, something that really resonated with me when I played El Paso, Elsewhere.
So much so that I asked him and @rj.dcellgames.com to make a song for Wax Heads and they... did?
and um, it's really, REALLY GOOD! 👀👀👀👀

Genuinely 1000x more interesting than any glorified chatbot. A far more exquisite corpse than the one humanity will leave behind.
Actual post.
If you took $1 billion and gave it to the endowment of a different small college each day, they could each provide a free college education to several hundred students per year in perpetuity. Instead we are using that money to bomb schools and kill students in Iran, for no clearly stated purpose.

Sorry I know the world is in a terrible fix but I've been laughing at this for ten minutes now
hey i drew this lol! someone very kindly alerted me on insta that this was being sold somewhere (was NOT anticipating this response so probably on me for not watermarking it properly before the bots got to it whoops) but just wanted to say i haven’t personally put this up for sale anywhere yet.
Absolutely devastated to have to deliver this news.
I have loved working at BuzzFeed so much but I have to stand up for what I believe in.
Please DO NOT send hate to anyone!
If anything changes regarding this, I will let you know.
We thank @aoc.bsky.social for speaking the truth about age verification in the House E&C hearing today! As she stated plainly, and we agree, age verification is a smoke-screen for censorship. It is NOT about kids safety!
Kristi Noem misattributing a paraphrase of Rudyard Kipling to George Orwell really does sum it all up huh
