ChatGPT and other LLMs aren't about to produce superintelligence, but if this is it, it's still changed the world. Not necessarily for the better. I did a big picture look at AI, comparing it to search and social media, On business, politics, education, misinfo, ability to grasp reality, and more.

Letting Google set the narrative about the environmental costs of "AI" is like letting tobacco companies set the narrative about the effects of second-hand smoke by measuring the health effects of sitting through one neighbor smoking one cigarette.

“Sisyphus thinks he can outwit death. But the company hive-mind pings him relentlessly, even on weekends, and so he stares at his phone on a Saturday and misses his daughter score her first goal at a soccer game.” — Pindar, Olympian Ode

AI put the empty milk carton back in the fridge.

Leaf cutter ants don’t eat the leaves. They use them as fertilizer for the fungus they grow underground. They’re doing agriculture!

My kid and I assisted with the birth of triplets today. It was downright magical.

hell yeah @williamfleitch.bsky.social

I am still having trouble getting on board with the whole "take from the poor, give to the rich" philosophy.

there's an episode of The Simpsons where Marge tries to get a violent cartoon pulled from the airwaves, only to discover that the people backing her aren't going to stop at just the art that *she* doesn't like, and that supporting artistic freedom means accepting discomfort. It aired in 1990.

Find the bird, hard mode

I love when the harvest is extra colorful!

The Corn Lily (Veratrum californicum) can grow to altitudes up to 11,000ft. The tall perennial plant is extremely toxic, can live 50+ years, and only flowers once. I saw fields filled with hundreds and hundreds of them, but only this one was flowering.

embarrassing myself

I am literally SO MAD at the current state of media that the only way I have been surviving is to direct this anger into making @theflytrapmedia.com grow because my comrades and i deserve a place to create radical leftist analysis, godamnit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Today at the Crested Butte Wildflower Festival, I got to see Bladderwort (an aquatic carnivorous plant) and Wood Lily (ecologically unique to the area). Then I attended a watercolor and wine session where I painted Red Paintbrushes #CBWF

Another gorgeous day at the Crested Butte Wildflower Festival 🌸 🌱 #CBWF

Mountain hiking, wildflowers, and cool bugs with my kiddo is good for the soul (despite the heat)

Last night’s hail storm was not kind to my garden. Pumpkin leaves look like Swiss cheese. #cowx 🌱

This makes me happy to read. Excited to guide my kids into what they love after being someone who was pushed in a direction I hated and left.

Perfume of the summer: Eau de Murphy’s. Absolutely *drenched* in it because my bite reaction is no joke. I busted through the fingers on my last gloves so these are still sparking clean, just ripped the tags off. Something about putting on fresh gloves is so satisfying. 🌱 #gardening
