Carl Sagan would be so disappointed in the world we’ve built and I’ll never get over it

Shit this should be my life’s work instead of doom scrolling

How do the dum-dums making calls at #DuoLingo not get how it’s the little touches, the darling details, that make the app so special? AI will flatten everything down into boring slop. And for what? “Efficiency”? Shareholder value? 🤮

AI is Soylent Green

#AI is just a giant mirror 🪞 I guess the question is, are you looking

I’m just a novelist but those four jets that fell in the Red Sea cost 2 x the NEA budget.

The tevas 😙👌

Trump abruptly fires Librarian of Congress Carla Hayden

BREAKING NEWS: Nom nom nom nom nom nom nom.

Hey, I know a lot is going on, but seriously: do not drink milk or eat dairy by-products in the USA with the FDA deregulation. People are going to DIE. Don’t touch that shit with a ten foot pole. They fired 20,000 people. What the fuck is happening.

I’m here for the #popediscourse

Y'all have got to check out the work of Esther Ikoro! IMO one of the most underrated science communicators on the internet. 🧪 youtu.be/rqsXqCPx6y0?...

"I'm kind of an AI skeptic, because I find that the machine learned something, but I didn't." - David DeRosier (paraphrase), at the "Cryo-EM: the next 50 years" symposium.

The amazing part isn’t just the wrong answer, but that the explanation it gives is accurate — and it *simply doesn’t know that 27 is a smaller number than 32.* Billions of dollars spent to make a black box machine that doesn’t know something elementary school kids know.

One looks like the light of a nuclear war is reflecting off his face, the other looks like he got his portrait done at Sears

Holy shit I assumed this was more NFTs but it’s specifically a *fungible* asset meaning he’s selling his own crypto coin. On top of that, it has a crazy fucking disclaimer and all the hallmarks of a fucking rugpull. This is fucking nuts.

RIP tiktok

Just stole this meme…

This is just fucking embarrassing. Performative useless nonsense.

Fed up with Meta? Avoiding Instagram or Facebook isn’t enough to stop Meta from harvesting and profiting from your private information. Here’s how to limit Meta’s ability to monetize your personal data.

This is a hilarious way to say “we haven’t figured out how to make AI do anything useful”

they want me to take mood stabilizers and produce spreadsheets but i want to take psychedelics and produce incomprehensible garbage

i used to have a strip of lynch's comic, the angriest dog in the world, taped to my wall back when i was not doing so hot

dark footnote to a dark day

Americans reacting to newly introduced anti-rednote legislation
