@jalefkowit YouTube isn't fully down; just recommendations are. I can still search, and still find videos by browsing my subscriptions. It's pretty nice, actually; just being able to find what I'm looking for without being presented with a ton of things YouTube thinks I'd like to watch.

Everything written by AI boosters tracks much more clearly if you simply replace "AI" with "cocaine".@jwz That's actually pretty much exactly his point too. He explicitly states:
"It would seem that we are addicted to a new drug, and we don’t understand all of its effects yet. But one of them is massive fatigue, every day.
"[...] is genuinely addictive. The better you get at it, the more you want to use it. It’s simultaneously satisfying, frustrating, and exhilarating. It doles out dopamine and adrenaline shots like they’re on a fire sale.
"Many have likened it to a slot machine. You pull a lever with each prompt, and get random rewards and sometimes amazing “payouts.” No wonder it’s addictive."
Even the fucking boosters are talking about it as an addiction that capital is exploiting because it lights up money sign in their eyes. This is how the boosters are describing it.

#retrocomputing self-help pamphlets@LionsPhil @jonschwenn That's 100% AI slop.
If I know anything about folks who use slop like that, they probably slopped out the whole contents of the pamphlets too.
