A German writing Manifest Destiny fan fiction without any idea of the facts on the ground? We seem to have here a Karl May cosplayer.

It’s no comfort that an acquaintance who works at a slop company says they’d been doing that for years now. That surely makes it fine then.

I’ve never seen a more compelling reason to enforce strict and short retention rules for every corp communication medium, holy shit https://www.forbes.com/sites/annatong/2026/04/16/ais-new-training-data-your-old-work-slacks-and-emails/

Excited for the labor and contract law disputes that this will spawn when the model makes promises that the person won’t keep https://www.theverge.com/tech/910990/meta-ceo-mark-zuckerberg-ai-clone

But as as expected, this is another zuck project that doesn’t have the leg(itimation)s

[ai booster voice] if you last tried a head of AI more than six months ago, you need to try the new model. https://old.reddit.com/r/apple/comments/1ska7kn/apples_ai_chief_john_giannandrea_departs_this_week/

I hate knowing so many of these clowns in person (or thinking I know them, Jesus fucking Christ) https://futurism.com/artificial-intelligence/openai-staffers-horrified-insane-plan

A lotta people asking their ai assistant how to reap something other than what they sow these days…

Is it their next model that tbey swear isn’t vaporware but no! It is too dangerous to release into the world because it’ll find too much insecure code or whatever.

Aphyr weighing in with an ai position post:

Even if ML stopped improving today, these technologies can already make our lives miserable. Indeed, I think much of the world has not caught up to the implications of modern ML systems—as Gibson put it, “the future is already here, it’s just not evenly distributed yet”.

For my own services I’m aiming for .999999% of uptime

You just gotta appreciate that the most deterministic part of the code base is the predatory lootbox system.

Hold on now, the uptime number contains two digits that are nines! The image itself has four nines in total!

 

Got the pointer to this from Allison Parrish who says it better than I could:

it's a very compelling paper, with a super clever methodology, and (i'm paraphrasing/extrapolating) shows that "alignment" strategies like RLHF only work to ensure that it never seems like a white person is saying something overtly racist, rather than addressing the actual prejudice baked into the model.

 

They invited that guy back. I do have to admit, I admire his inability to read a room.
