Someone's racist uncle on Facebook lost his girlfriend in the Russian bot farm fire and you're laughing!

Cant resist sharing this. So, I was at a party in August & I saw this man who I was certain that I knew ages ago. So I went up to him & said we know him each other right? And then chatted for 30 min….& then he said let’s take a selfie. Suddenly knew I did not know him & that he was Clyde Frazier!

If I had more characters, I’d have said he’s indefensible;) Still good on him & also Jensen Huang for stating plainly that humans at AI cos are obviously responsible for & liable if they release, sell & profit from dangerous products. Unless extinction comes first?

treat your body like a data center. consume as much water, art and literature as possible. upset local municipalities with your existence.

Anthropic is out with new nonsense about Claude (or the collection of models called Claude) deserving moral consideration and/or be able to feel distress, so my inbox is filling up with journos asking me to comment. I've also got a day job, so here is a brief set of public comments on this: >>
