LLM/GAN/etc. bubble taking so long to burst, the next AI winter's gonna be brutal. More like a full-blown Ice Age.

So the next big thing will be whole brain emulation, probably. And you know what that means, aside from immortality for a few rich fucks.

Let's hope we scale down our digital infrastructure way back before that, or it will get downright ugly. Moving text, audio and video back to analog media would help a lot too.

(Reminder: this shit's not AI. Will keep repeating it until you all fix your language or block me.)

“I know we promised a limitless utopia, but in reality when we connect your server to the rest of the internet it gets immediately exploited and a bunch of malevolent children fill the world with indestructible self-replicating obscenities and we have to roll your mind-state back. So, uh, you’ll have to stay in the demo zone until we’ve worked out how to rewrite the firewall prompt”

Whatever, Justice Barrett. You can tone police Justice Jackson all you want.

At least she's not a collaborator.

One of my favourite memories from the last Iceland trip is from the night we drove back from the puffin rock to our accommodation. As we reached the height of the mountain, suddenly we found ourselves driving above the clouds. It was magical. Iceland is magical.

Apparently they didn't learn anything in last 5 months. Institutions are made of people. Americans submit to #Trump like he is their King.
Trump just needs to pick a #MAGA from the Board of Governors of Fed Reserve to be the next chair, and by next year Trump can set the fed rate as if it is a game show.

I was going through an old list of websites that I had registered on that had been found in data breaches.

I had already updated account password of important ones, especially anything that had data on me beyond an email. But I left the old ones alone, figuring why bother.
