Huh. Looks like Plato was right. A new paper shows all language models converge on the same "universal geometry" of meaning. Researchers can translate between ANY model's embeddings without seeing the original text. Implications for philosophy and vector databases alike. arxiv.org/pdf/2505.12540

AI doesn't know 'no' - and that's a huge problem for medical bots. It means they can’t distinguish images labelled as showing a disease from images labelled as not showing the disease.

This guide is great. I've used it many, many times since 2020. I also have handed out the physical pamphlets multiple times and plan to do so again. Highly recommended. It also is helpful because it reminds you that you aren't losing your shit for no reason, they really are fascists
