    1. Buy a defense ai system with a cool GUI but that absolutely doesn't fucking work
    2. PRESS RELEASES
    3. Leave the source code+model weights somewhere that your enemies will find it, preferably next to a big data pipe
    4. Watch them copy it and try to use it on the battlefield
    5. lol

    Just have to avoid naming it something that would give the game away like WIM-PLOW or whatever

  • Ten years ago, I naively thought that people might grow a sort of mental callus against online bullshit. Big L for me! Turns out that there's no such thing as magical self-assembling media literacy.

  • IDK, do you really think twitter still has that much cultural relevance? ugh

    I'm sure it played a part, though.

  • The thing that's most baffling to me is how the difference in ground game had zero impact. We were pounding the pavement, doors got fuckin knocked. The GOP did less than zero, firing their entire staff responsible for in-person outreach and gave 100 million to PACs run by grifters who put it directly into their own pockets.

    Unless we've missed a trick, retail politics as it has existed is dead.

  • The bad guys have definitely learned a new sort of trick. Haven't wrapped my head around it yet, but it is bad, innit?

  • Nashville, here. I hear ya.

    I don't know what else to say, I can't explain any of this, but also please know that you're not alone out there.

  • In Arizona’s U.S. Senate race, Republican Kari Lake told Politico why she feels confident in her chances, despite recent polling showing her behind Democratic Rep. Ruben Gallego: “Our polling is a little different. We take polling, but we also combine it with AI, which reads all of what’s happening on social media and across the Internet.”

    Edit: Found the map she's using:

  • It is refreshing to see the general trend of people laughing when promptbros try to paint themselves as the Wright Brothers Reborn, isn't it?

  • Personally, I'd love to see the Luddites be rehabilitated as a result of the Great Bullshit Collapse. They were just regular folks fighting for dignity in work, and it's tragic how successful the bastards have been at erasing them from history.

  • Very well. We shall resume in an hour.

  • New for him, I'd wager, but I think ESR is treading a well-worn path: i.e. a huge weirdo gets himself in trouble but then finds favor with terrible people, and ultimately suffers from audience capture.

    Edit: I was wrong, it's not new (hat tip to @Soyweiser)

  • Being so aggressively mid will frequently get you the mean.

    Edit: Before you pedantically argue that the median != mean, I'd suggest that your posts plainly fall on the normal curve because they are all typically boring, standard deviations.

  • Fun fact: The Sea Lion is officially 10 years old!

  • I wonder if Adobe has considered cooling their new data centers with liquid nitrogen?

    Cold is key to successful turd polishing.

  • induncetive

    I would argue that it is exactly in-dunce-itive reasoning

  • This is the Bad Place!
