The little bit of linear algebra/matrix math I used for my telescope controller software is getting smeared by association 😉

The operators seek to deny their human reviewers grounds for negligence by putting "don't be mean" policies in front of the users.

They're so narcissistic that outside perspectives are never sought, nevermind considered, so it only stands to reason the thing they really want to fuck is a sycophantic virtual mirror, as free of morals as they are, only in it's case it's a quirk of design rather than an intentional choice.

If you consider “jailbreaking” to be equivalent to the continuous psychological warfare going on

The hypocrisy is so thick you could cut it with a knife.

“Guardrails” (including stupid prompts) being seen as the solution to the above.

Everything above being accepted anyway and risk-based problems, as well as all the ethical/moral, societal and environmental ones, just ignored for “left-behindism).

That therefore LLMs fail on a simple measure against all of the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

Dog, I need a drink now.

He’s mandated all developers to use AI, saying those who want it the least need it the most and “you need to be on them like a wasp”. His favourite pastime is walking around asking devs what they’re doing with AI and asking them to explain what’s on their screens. Really some smashing quotes in this article, unfortunately in Norwegian. https://www.kode24.no/artikkel/hvis-du-nekter-a-bruke-ki-er-du-basically-tjukk-i-huet/259609

They're longer chunks now, but it's the same format. The think pieces are in there, but they're always riffs on the thing of the day. I do try to answer "so what does this meeeean". I mean, today's is just "dumb thing, the situation, here's what to do," so it varies. OTOH today's is real short.

thankfully my attention span is real low too
