Not sure how anyone who is paying attention can still call this a "stochastic parrot". OpenAI's general-purpose reasoning model (not math-specific) just disproved a central conjecture by Erdos which all experts in the subfield had spent time pondering. #AI #math #computing

"Meditation", Je Shen, Chinese Artist, 2026

Washington Post's Editorial Board then and now on gerrymandering... 🤔

infowars the official news service for blue sky is not something i could have possibly imagined tbh

leftist publishers when you ask them about open access

An AI chatbot getting tired of helping Nate Silver and telling him to "wrap it up" is just objectively funny.

Playing Oregon Trail while shaking my head in disgust to make sure nobody on Bluesky thinks I'm okay with people dying of dysentery.

It's increasingly becoming recognized the only thing the internet ever did right was making the cat the official animal of the internet.

I'm intrigued by the idea that reading comprehension is gradually but steadily declining on the internet. Newsom made a relatively simple joke that takes ten seconds to understand, yet he's flooded with replies of the "Bush was bad/dumb though! How could you say that!?" variety.

Is it just me or is LinkedIn somehow becoming even more unhinged, if that was even possible? #LinkedIn

Today's the day.

The world is healing.

My graphics are augmented... #deusex

Every country which Trump is begging to sacrifice their navies in the Strait Of Hormuz could do the funniest thing right now, and it would be richly deserved.

When people talk about corporate propaganda they bring up Hot Coffee and it irritates me because the much more substantial example is the astroturf campaign by meat industry lobbyists against PETA, but it barely gets talked about because it plays into society's biases. www.vox.com/future-perfe...

I can't believe the winner of the FIFA Peace Prize is invading another country 😫

shaking my head while reading a satire so people don’t think i’m crypto conservative

Me when reflexive AI haters try to convince everyone that AI can't ever be funny, creative, or entertaining.

90% of YouTube these days...

Apparently I missed this 20 versions ago, but in Firefox you can now copy a link with "Copy Clean Link" and it will remove all that "utm" tracking garbage at the end of the URL 😎

Interesting video by Christian immigrants which influenced Pope Leo's recent decision that "the church cannot be silent" and needs a "stronger, more unified voice". youtu.be/rOdHZDpM9X8

We had a good run

Good evening. "Jerry Chen" was a 27-month sociological experiment studying Poster's Madness conducted by Quinnipiac University. We are now complete with our study; thank you for your time.

I guess it was inevitable the admins of this platform — the only viable alternative to X, which has become truly malevolent and perpetuates great harm — would eventually get dog-piled and become a punching bag. Huge swathes of the left do not know how to keep perspective at all.

RIP to this legend. Society still has so much to learn from her and sometimes it seems like we're headed in the wrong direction. news.janegoodall.org/2017/04/28/w...

Okay this is actually funny 😹 Gavin Newsom has been relentlessly trolling DJT for days.

We would never waterboard. We're not monsters. What you saw back there was compassionate and humane hydroplaning.

Good recap on justified true beliefs, what it means to know something, the implications for AI, and why it matters. #philosophy #science #AI youtu.be/M2ZM5tuhFWs

Chasing a deer around in circles at low speed to get it off the road and onto the trails is my favorite biking sidequest 😝 And it actually worked.

Myspace Tom is back and he's using Grok to troll Musk and Trump while they publicly feud. We're so back 😝 #myspacetom #myspace #AI

Haters will say this is AI.

"Overworld Map" Super Mario World (1990)

a peachy stroll 🍑🌼🌷

Only bisexual Zoomers get Long COVID, this is very established.

Not only can't they handle the complicated or unusual, but if it got close but not good enough or if it was creating some strange behavior how does a non-programmer even correct that except just asking the AI over and over to fix it and hope that it eventually does?... Not an ideal approach by far.

Very proud of this actually

Amazing things are happening at X 😹😹😹

Charlie Chaplin did the meme first, 103 years ago...

Which reminds me of: »Everyone who is on social media is getting individualized, continuously adjusted stimuli, without a break. What might once have been called advertising must now be understood as continuous behavior modification on a titanic scale.« ~ Jaron Lanier #ahoy25

Repurposing what came before is a very old and accepted tradition in the arts. Wondering how to think about AI art, and how it relates to collage art, sampling in music, and other forms of remixing? This one-stop resource is my starting point for these discussions. www.youtube.com/watch?v=X9RY...

I literally never get dog-piled as hard and have abuse hurled at me as when I have anything even remotely positive to say about AI. My question is why if you're so confident in your position is that even necessary? That kind of fragility toward even the smallest bit of dissent is very telling.
