Another big oof. Hippie ass white guy saying that we should just JAQ off and give other problematic white guys a chance. Sounds about white!

Also his book is co/ghost written by Neil Strauss, the game/PUA manual guy.

Vercel? What’s the ver stand for? (jk)

Oof that’s the good stuff. Chuds with overly self-inflated egos co-opting eastern philosophy for tech shit is pretty well known around these parts. It’s refreshing to see it from a slightly different white guy.

Also, my usual muckraking bore unexpected fruit:

I’m gonna believe it. The Candace Owens part is disputed, and I daresay debunked, though.

Adam ruined his ruination. He truly does ruin everything

IDK if they were really speedrunning, it took 3 replies for the total mask drop.

It guessed my buddy's name, unprompted!

Just remember, it can, and will, always get worse!

Yeah exactly. Loving the dude's mental gymnastics to avoid the simplest answer and instead spin it into moralising about promptfondling more good

OpenAI should be opening Thanatoria any day now, with Sora^TM to generate visual^[Soon with audio! ] content to comfort you on your hemlock shuffle off the mortal buffalo coil.

Swatting as a service

Sorry, as mentioned elsewhere in the thread I can’t open links. Looks like froztbyte explained it though, thanks!

Actually I’m finding this quite useful. Do you mind posting more of the article? I can’t open links on my phone for some reason

what is this “alignment” you speak of? I’ve never heard of this before

In the current chapter of “I go looking on linkedin for sneer-bait and not jobs, oh hey literally the first thing I see is a pile of shit”

MFs are boiling the oceans to reinvent cold reading

A real modest {brunch|bunch}

Just thinking about how I watched “Soylent Green” in high school and thought the idea of a future where technology just doesn’t work anymore was impossible. Then LLMs come and the first thing people want to do with them is to turn working code into garbage, and then the immediate next thing is to kill living knowledge by normalising people relying on LLMs for operational knowledge. Soon, the oceans will boil, agricultural industries will collapse and we’ll be forced to eat recycled human. How the fuck did they get it so right?

If I had my druther’s I’d make my own hosting and call it “UnaGit”, and pretend it’s unagi/eel themed, when it is actually teddy K themed

NASB: A question I asked myself in the shower: “Is there some kind of evolving, sourced document containing all the reasons why LLMs should be turned off?” Then I remembered wikis exist. Wikipedia doesn’t have a dedicated “criticisms of LLMs” page afaict, or even a “Criticisms” section on the LLM page. RationalWiki has a page on LLMs that is almost exclusively criticisms, which is great, but the tone is a few notches too casual and sneery for universal use.
