Newsletter: I want my damn tech industry back. I'm sick of these sociopathic and directionless freaks wasting hundreds of billions of dollars on AI and ruining products in search of perpetual growth. It has never been more urgent to hold them accountable. www.wheresyoured.at/never-forget...

There's a lot of big news today/this week, but Apple just dropped a nuke of a paper about LLMs & LRMs, specially around "high-complexity tasks where both models experience complete collapse." This is the biggest sign yet that if AI ever lives up the hype, it won't be via those approaches:

The honest reason I don't have microtransactions/season pass/ads/100 DLCs/etc in Balatro isn't just about the ethics of those practices but because when I play other games that have those things it makes me want to put my computer in the dishwasher and set it to pots & pans

As someone who probably still prefers the original TV series as a container for the story, I cannot over emphasize how hard the movies go. Meguriai kicking in during Amuro and Char's duel at A Baoa Qu is one of the most electrifying things the mecha genre has ever given us. youtu.be/DX_7_8mP3oI?...

Thought I'll try Rider as an alternative to VS. My VS project builds fine so I start typing and it suggests me AI code. The AI plugin is on by default and described to make sure you can't see it's AI at the first glance. This is how you make sure I don't use your stuff ever again, @jetbrains.com

I know a bunch of people in my surroundings have talked about wanting actually visionary sci-fi, something with a fresh and strong voice and statement and art of its own instead of yet more Trek/Wars Inspired adventures Nibiru overflows that role, you should keep an eye on it and more.

There should be a sport where people compete to see who can spend the longest time under simulated high gravity. Two guys locked in giant centrifuges under 5g's for several solid weeks etc, going about their business in studio apartments

A stunning example of an Arteebus Perrii forager, who has scavenged a bayonet for his gyrojetter. This kind of crude tool use is common, as they aid the territorial species in their instinctual need to secure small circular hunting grounds from scrungaloids with differently-coloured carapaces.

I wonder how much of AI "it tells me I am transforming into a god" cultism involves a digital version of Stendhal Syndrome, a cheesecake superstimulus very deliberately tailor made by the billionaires who created it to do so.
