It's kind of wild how the standard fare of pizza and chinese food delivery was absorbed by gig work. They used to be employees of the restaurant.

Who gives a shit that he said it?

He didn't say it. That's the flex his opponents are trying to make.

You know how Republicans are trying to flex on their cult by asserting the Epstein files don't actually exist? Same tactic.

While I understand the compulsion to ignore and distract oneself from the ever growing list of atrocities around the world, I find it to be a personal responsibility to maintain rather than a public obligation to protect.

I spent chunks of 2023 and 2024 investigating and testing image gen models after a cryptobro coworker kept talking about it.

I rigged up an old system and ran it locally to see wtf these things are doing. Honestly producing slop at 5 seconds per image v 5 minutes is meaningless in terms of value if 0% of the slop can be salvaged. And still, a human has to figure out what to so with the best candidates.

In fact at a certain speed it begins to work against itself as no one can realistically analyze AI gen output as fast as it is produced.

Conclusion: AI is mostly worthless. It just forces you to accept that human effort is the only thing with intrinsic value. And it's as tough to get out of AI as it is to put any in.

And that's looking past all the other gargantuan problems with AI models.

The far right are enjoying the opportunity to smear unions since they're the most prominent and functional face of resisting ICE. These folks are actively discussing how immigration efforts can and should be directed politically. Flooding the zone is the tactic being used.

But essentially a small portion of the profit landlords enjoy everyday was used by a union for purposes that benefitted the union, which may or may not have included things like rent control, and lobbying and campaigning on issues that would affect housing.

The intentional hit piece you can expect from a 'nonpartisan nonprofit' within the techCEO ecosystem, in this case Google.

I mean after all there are eight levels which are of course a reference to the Noble Eightfold Path.

Way to get him killed, with all that talking. Unless you're some kinda servant of chaos or something.

Could it be a blueprint for Democrats elsewhere?

Democrats elsewhere: "For messaging right? A blueprint for our messaging? Right?"

Pretty sure one person came up with two racist jokes to tell at once.

Celsius energy drinks.

I had a coworker evangelize about them so I decided to try them out. Every time I got one and tried it some complete random would come up 'Hey! You like Celsius? Have you tried the [whatever] flavors? [Other flavor] is my favorite!'

I found them all gross.

See your brain went immediately to a solution based on knowing how something works. That's not in the AI wheelhouse.

He can definitely be the face of the right. Let Asmongold be what people think of when someone airs those kinds of opinions.
