"In the general advice and Reddit-based prompts, the models on average endorsed the user 49% more often than humans. Even when responding to the harmful prompts, the models endorsed the problematic behavior 47% of the time."

A PhD student at Stanford noticed her classmates were asking Al to write their breakup texts. So she ran a study. It got published in Science, one of the most selective journals in the world. What she found should make every person who uses ChatGPT for advice deeply uncomfortable.

This 1939 #film resonates across time & especially now. The business & manipulation that is politics vs The power of a "government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth" - #AbrahamLincoln Watch link #MrSmithGoesToWashington: www.youtube.com/watch?v=91zY...

I was thinking this about so many movies from our country. Can we have average-looking super-confident female leads too? Who also get everything they want?

Not surprising. Ageism & sexism is so rampant. This also applies to those from marginalized communities? BIPOC, Neurodivergent, LGBTQIA+? And in India, lower castes? Despite a significant part of our population being Scheduled Castes/Scheduled Tribes, including the 'untouchable' Dalits?

Heh!

Wow! #ArtSky #Art

Aww! 😍

What is it about the play of light and shadow that create these vast, moody spaces? Love the way it is captured. #ArtSky #Art

Illuminating! It'd be interesting to see a similar survey that covers staff in traditional publishing: from editorial & acquisitions to marketing, sales, & so on, @publisherswkly.bsky.social www.publishersweekly.com/pw/by-topic/... #WritingCommunity #AmWriting #AmQuerying #LiteraryAgents #TradPub

An interesting, insightful read: "In a market flooded with design templates and AI-generated imagery, the painted cover stands out as distinctly human." #BookSky #ArtSky #Art hyperallergic.com/the-painted-...

This messaging resonates on so many levels. ✨ Wish more of this kindness in our interactions. 💫

Whoa! 🎯🔥

Chinese researchers sprayed cyanobacteria onto desert sand and turned it into stable soil in just 10 months. Cyanobacteria oozes sticky sugars that glue loose grains of sand into a crust that’s tough enough to cut wind erosion and trap water. buff.ly/koBHJr5 #ShareGoodNewsToo

Apparently, someone is using my name again in scam e-mails to authors. If you receive an out-of-the-blue contact purporting to be from an agent, editor, publisher, or prod company soliciting your material, it’s almost guaranteed to be a scam. Check all details carefully.

This is beautiful!

We're years into "'AI' will absolutely positively make up shit, never use it for anything even vaguely important" being common knowledge and yet this keeps happening, at a certain point you just have to accept some people just plain like being found out and humiliated www.ft.com/content/a61c...

🤩

Still on my mind, these words... 💖

Do not be fooled into thinking Trump is all-powerful. The truth is he's never been weaker — and America is on track to deliver him a historic midterm rebuke.

The next college speaker that has praise for AI written into their prepared speech:

If you're someone who rates book with stars, what do your star ratings mean to you? For me: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ = 'perfect' (I'm literal minded!). Rare. I use decimals 4.8, 4.7, 4.9 😉 ⭐⭐⭐⭐ - Enjoyed it. Would recommend ⭐⭐⭐ - Okay Anything 3 & below I wouldn't rate or review. 'If you've little good to say...'

The competition among these tycoons is fierce for the World's Super Villain crown! 🤑 But then, do we question before blithely entering bank details for 'help'? Don't we give up the details of our lives to Google & socials anyway? 🫠 'Convenience', you dangerous word. 'Validation', a close runner-up.

🎯 Energy Vaccines to boost our spirit vs Energy Vampires that drain us. 😉

Tamarind seed powder to remove microplastics from water? Whoa! Such a sorely needed innovation. Go, Vivaan Chhawchharia, Ariana Agarwal, and Avyana Mehta!

This. And something that's a good reminder The sheer subjectivity & context in tastes: readers, publisher / editor / agent requirements, judgements of award juries... How can a handful possibly stand for the masses? An indicator, maybe, but not the absolute authority on reading. #BookSky

✨💪

The gentleness of the text in the screenshot... Glad it's happening. Night or day, imo, we need to come together more as communities. To enjoy each other, be curious about each other, to share & support. Sans the social divisions, (skin, gender, class, caste, creed, brain type...), we dream up.

🤣💖

💖 Why is this so satisfying to watch? The poor baby could hardly see before the trim.

Ha! 😆

🤔✨

Every time this thought comes to our heads: 'I'm good for nothing'...

Love it! Soothing and broody at the same time. #ArtSky

“Where is the pool of men who are self-sufficient and like to read, are willing to go to therapy and are not afraid of a woman who has a passport? That sounds really wild to say out loud, but I don’t feel like I’m missing a ton by choosing to read a book instead of swiping on Hinge.”

Motivate the vote Back new candidates not incumbents, replace the entire GOP and the vast majority of current democrats. We need an entirely new crew If we don't rid ourselves of the corruption We'll drown in it. www.google.com/search?clien...
