Totally irresponsible to behave this way having decades of experience now knowing how the internet works

i say this probably a distressing amount but i feel like the only rational response to hearing the sentence 'they're making a trump instant pot' is to assume you've died and are experiencing the final moments of frenetic neuron connectivity

an excellent point here although i'd amend & say that the real effect is to instead create a networked insanity where it is distributed across a greater body of people. nobody goes fully insane but everyone absorbs everyone else's insanity and goes insane together namaste

i've been trying to see what the right wing platforms (even outside of X) are showing people regarding the protests in LA and i am not sure it can be overstated just how much the AI slop is being used to reinforce the idea that downtown is a post-apocalyptic war zone

what this makes me think of immediately are examples of right wing protests with militia members or like the Lobby Day stuff in Virginia where lots of people are just ominously idling in full tactical gear w/ big guns and the tension/attention that creates even if they just stand there

this speaks a bit to my argument about leaving twitter. it's not about ideological purity, it is about the fact that it's been turned into a political weapon for people who wish to use it to harm others. it's not the marketplace of ideas - you do not have to participate in this project! very simple!

the fun version of this is when you’re posting about some nerd shit and someone pops up in the comments like “actually I am a world renowned expert in this field and here’s how this works” easily the best thing that happens on social media

I wrote about the Musk/Trump beef. Probably an attention contest without precedent. It’s worth asking what 'winning' even looks like here. But I get the sense that, whatever happens...we all lose. But in the interim the content is tremendous. (gift link) www.theatlantic.com/technology/a...

right now at least i think the opposite! the dumbest outcome is that this beefing somehow makes them both stronger so i'm going with that for now

a pretty great admission by Musk that, despite being a mega donor and shadow president for a month there, he's completely unaware of the dynamics of american politics. he was merely audience captured by the only people who could stand him anymore and now he's gonna alienate them too

not really the point (or maybe it partly is) but it is so difficult for me to read chatbot voice. the flattering tone is one thing but it's also just so fluffy. doesn't produce writing as much as 'copy.' Anyhow, I'm glad we're replacing people with this. Very good.
