@Wolven Definitely wouldn't have called it. Having come this far, I thought #Google was just going to charge through blindly. Not that they don't have a history of taking the axe to products all the time. But I thought for sure they would stick to their guns on SGE. And #Bard was the worst (and last) of the first-wave big gen #AI

@aral Don't count out the killer robots. They are coming along nicely. Just because they will be deployed by humans and not by SkyNet and won't be self-replicating doesn't make them not a threat.All those "human in the loop" systems are being developed with the knowledge that it would be more profitable to take the human out of the loop at some point. Palantir drools about it.#AI

@foone Because helium is such a practical and endlessly available choice!(Cue discussion of moon-mining).

@futurebird I wouldn't say so. As a semi-"AI guy" who's followed you for a while, your takes on AI are usually pretty rational and moderate, imo. The good kind of anti-AI pushback. Charlie (who I also follow and enjoy as a writer) is more in for the performative, torches and pitchforks stuff. The companies behind AI are deep into evil shit. I don't think transferring infinite culpability onto people who use AI is going to work out though. It's a very noisy moral signal for lots of reasons.

@futurebird Fake myrmecologists?! ... That's oddly specific and rare. Was it some weird con to gain your trust?I think I know the "black artist" account you mention. Or at least I was seeing posts from a similar one for a couple months, last year. I took it for a fully automated bot.

@foone Now picturing Rust flashing me with an open trenchcoat
