Once again, it turns out “fully autonomous” means “a guy in the Philippines.”
Regarding the Discourse, lemme just say that if you can't draw, yes you can.
Everyone can draw, and folks will almost certainly respond more positively to your stick figures than some generic "A.i." slop.
Also, there are LOADS of resources for free images. Like this! 🧵

De bons conseils auxquels je peux adhérer sauf les parties sur "devenir ton idole" et "trouver un objet de dévotion"..
if russia or china were doing this we’d call it foreign interference
a picture of super mario with a carrot(?) in his hand. a mushroom is looking up at him. a star with a face isn't far away. a love heart is on his other side, and a key is on the ground but it looks like a snake is slithering over the key. there is also a character, holding a pitchfork. water is below the platform mario is standing on, along with the text 'super mario 2'. caption: this picture of mario is a stunning achievement from six year old ross weszka of blackpool.

This is incredibly powerful testimony.
Ms. Rahman is very tough and clear and was treated horribly.
Warning: I can't watch it without tears of rage.

How AI Impacts Skill Formation Judy Hanwen Shen, Alex Tamkin AI assistance produces significant productivity gains across professional domains, particularly for novice workers. Yet how this assistance affects the development of skills required to effectively supervise AI remains unclear. Novice workers who rely heavily on AI to complete unfamiliar tasks may compromise their own skill acquisition in the process. We conduct randomized experiments to study how developers gained mastery of a new asynchronous programming library with and without the assistance of AI. We find that AI use impairs conceptual understanding, code reading, and debugging abilities, without delivering significant efficiency gains on average. Participants who fully delegated coding tasks showed some productivity improvements, but at the cost of learning the library. We identify six distinct AI interaction patterns, three of which involve cognitive engagement and preserve learning outcomes even when participants receive AI assistance. Our findings suggest that AI-enhanced productivity is not a shortcut to competence and AI assistance should be carefully adopted into workflows to preserve skill formation -- particularly in safety-critical domains.

Anthropic being honest about the damage they’re doing is probably the result of them reading my popular science book which they stole.

Bilbo asking ChatGPT whether he should keep the ring. After all, why not? Why shouldn't I keep it? You're absolutely right - you found it, it's been with you a long while, and it's only natural to feel fond of something that's served you so well, especially when someone like Gandalf suddenly seems to want it for himself.
don’t let chatgpt in the shire
Unfriendly reminder, AI is being used to destroy trust. Do not normalize the use of AI. AI can not reliably enhance videos or low-quality images.
This is the quiet replacement of reality. Do not let this be normalized.
If your whole basis for your morality is built around legality, you’ve already lost a major battle inside your head against fascism.

Legault voulait mettre le Québec sur la mappe? Ben il l’a fait.
Mais pas pour les bonnes raisons je pense.
As it turns out, privatizing the internet and making sure it remained completely deregulated from the 1990s to today turned out to be a bad idea
