Charles Xavier, 93, who is so autistic he can kill people with his mind, said: “You can really thrive here if you’re different. There’s on-the-job training, free accommodation and endless opportunities for progression. And nobody bats an eyelid if you come to work in your underpants.”

If this holds up, it annihilates copyright across every industry. But the foundational finding here is false. Generative models are duplicating training data verbatim. Both text and images. That’s how artists and authors are recognizing their work in outputs.

This is a vital message: one of the larger reasons BlueSky is refreshingly free of alt-right shitlords is because in the early days we made a gentleperson’s agreement to starve these fuckos out and it worked. No likes, no quotes, no engagement. They got bored and left. Please keep the Old Ways.

- A group of mystics uses Kabbalah to bind a chatbot like a golem. -A conspiracy theorist forces an AI to hallucinate the Akashic Records. Had I included this plot points in my Mage: The Ascension, Cyberpunk or Shadowrun games during the 1990s, I would've been told that was too over the top.

I didn’t give a wit about new pope coverage, but the first American pope being a man with Black ancestry born in Chicago by way of New Orleans by way of Haiti. Names his self after the pope who condemned slavery? In the Trump era? Oh, baebae, I am HERE for it. www.wwltv.com/article/news...

The suggestion alone is very funny, of course, but the gibberish word salad explanation... that it's "passé"—that "good girl", a two-word phrase, is a "noun"—saying 'satisfactory small woman' more vividly conveys intended meaning... Genuinely astounded anyone is convinced genAI is anything at all.
