I can honestly say that I have never played Umamusume Pretty Derby ^because^ ^on^ ^my^ ^PC^ ^the^ ^sound^ ^keeps^ ^cutting^ ^out^ ^and^ ^the^ ^cutscenes^ ^don't^ ^play^ ^which^ ^greatly^ ^disappointed^ ^me.^

The Supabase homepage implies AI bros are two levels below "beginner", which I found somewhat amusing:

The Gentle Singularity - Sam Altman

This entire blog post is sneerable so I encourage reading it, but the TL;DR is:

We're already in the singularity. Chat-GPT is more powerful than anyone on earth (if you squint). Anyone who uses it has their productivity multiplied drastically, and anyone who doesn't will be out of a job. 10 years from now we'll be in a society where ideas and the execution of those ideas are no longer scarce thanks to LLMs doing most of the work. This will bring about all manner of sci-fi wonders.

Sure makes you wonder why Mr. Altman is so concerned about coddling billionaires if he thinks capitalism as we know it won't exist 10 years from now but hey what do I know.

Allow people to privately borrow against the taxable part of the future incomes or other economic activities of their children.

"Sorry Junior, I know you wanted to be an artist but you see back in 2025 I got really really into a gatcha game called Umamusume Pretty Derby and long story short you're legally obligated to become a doctor."

I found this footnote from Sam Altman's blog amusing in light of your comment:

*By using the term AGI here, we aim to communicate clearly, and we do not intend to alter or interpret the definitions and processes that define our relationship with Microsoft. We fully expect to be partnered with Microsoft for the long term. This footnote seems silly, but on the other hand we know some journalists will try to get clicks by writing something silly so here we are pre-empting the silliness…

Bonus: He also appears to think LLM conversations should be exempt from evidence retention requirements due to 'AI privilege' (tweet).

Now I'm all for privacy, and this is a good reminder that 'the cloud' is not as private as maybe it should be. But clearly AI privilege is not a thing that should exist.

Smol bean Sam Altman 'politically homeless' after Democrats no longer believe in trickle down economics enough for him.

Taking bets on no correction from the NYT calling him an "academic".

Aside: the willingness of news, politicians, and the general public to listen to non-peer reviewed nonsense from (often) anonymous "scientists" is an awful trend. Besides this smear campaign it's also come up in anti-vax nonsense, election fraud conspiracies, and "reports" against transgender healthcare. It's like everyone still knows science is cool beans, but forgot what science is in the first place.

I looked at his substack and he also writes a bunch of super skeevy transphobic concern trolling. Not a nice person all around.

Another NYT Opinion writer, Jamelle Bouie, had criticized the article before being forced to delete his posts: https://bsky.app/profile/jamellebouie.net/post/3lt44uitxc22x

NYTimes has posted on Twitter about the feedback* (copypasted to bluesky via screenshots lacking subtitles lol). But don't bother reading it because it says absolutely nothing.

* Their word. I'm not sure I'd call this "feedback" so much as everyone talking about how irredeemably terrible they are.
