“Where” is a question that applies to the physical world. The dream people are constituted of something more fundamental than matter.

The stuck-on residue is real.

But here’s the brutal reality: it’s not just residue; it’s residon’t.

Options:

• A: (recommended) do the dishes
• B: don’t do the dishes
• C: mix of both

Bee movie but every time you report it for being trans it gets transer

All artwork for the series was hand-drawn by Anna Rettberg (https://x.com/aerettberg) without generative AI.

For context:

Demetri Spanos (PhD) is a 25+ year veteran of AI development. He wanted to speak out about the negative turn that his field has taken, but he didn’t have an audience so he turned to…

Casey Muratori, an accomplished software developer with a considerable media presence. He makes a good fit for Demetri in this case because while Casey himself is an AI skeptic, much of Casey’s audience are young professional devs who are probably using AI (whether enthusiastically or reluctantly) in the workplace. Exactly the audience Demetri hopes to reach.

The title of the video should be read as “the ethical questions and proposed frameworks that have appeared throughout the past 30 years of AI research”, not “an affirmative argument for the question of whether the current crop of AI software is ethical”.

(Spoiler: Demetri makes strong arguments that the industry entered unethical territory more than 15 years ago)

Deterministic: ✅ ❌

Oh god nix output

No, forward slash. No, the — It’s the one that goes up and to the right. No you do have one, trust me, just keep look — No, you can’t just use the “other slash”, and it’s called “backslash”. … Well because different things mean different things, Phil. sigh Just, it’s the one you think of when you write a fraction. No that’s a hyphen. It’s angled, remember? Why did you type 5? Oh, the percent sign. No I see why that — Well, because you didn’t use the shift key. Yeah it’s the one — You just hit enter, didn’t you?

“Did you just have Claude ship all this code?”

“Yep”

“You shouldn’t ship code you don’t understand…”

“Good point. Claude, go understand this code for me!”

The command opened the alternate buffer.

I’ve seen that name a bunch but never bothered figuring out who that is. Does this mean I put it off for long enough that I no longer need to?

Some people genuinely have a problem with it.

But I’m convinced that the majority of it is just: It’s embarrassing (and therefore costs social capital) to defend it.

So therefore: If you attach it to something else you want to attack, you just gave yourself a strategic advantage.

Being a Luddite isn’t going to help anyone.

Not taking a side in this thread, but you might wanna learn more about the Luddites. Their story is very relevant to today.

I can’t do basic, boring, uninteresting stuff.

But if you tell me “I’m not sure this is technically possible. Like, it should be, in theory, but nobody’s ever done it before…” I will work on that for 56 hours without eating or sleeping.

A lot of it probably isn’t legal, but who’s gonna prosecute them?

Whatever specific class I am, my play style is definitely “glass cannon”.

Anthropic, without an ounce of self-awareness: “Hey, just cuz you used AI to change it doesn’t mean you can copy our stuff and use it to compete against us!”

We are ruinning language for the sake of engagement.

Went from believing “yes” is inevitable to believing “no” is inevitable instead of learning the lesson that most of this is just random

In context, it sounds like he’s “disappointed a lot” by people choosing to use AI, which is a crucial distinction. His objection is about the kind of society we’re sleepwalking into, not the technical maturity of the current crop of software.

AI’s generated text is “too dry and too perfect, and I want something from a human being, and I’m disappointed a lot.”
