This is absolutely nuts: hackers are hijacking high-profile Instagram accounts by simply asking Meta's AI chatbot to change the email on the account. Meta's AI does it, hacker gets password reset code, they're in. A staggering security issue www.404media.co/hackers-simp...

We've reached the point where one party has so obliterated the rule of law that everyone else continuing to abide by it will only hasten the end of our democracy. That's a recipe for chaos and violence. It's terrifying, and I don't know what we do about it.

A very good article on AI and coding from the NYT by @clivethompson.bsky.social Here's a gift link: www.nytimes.com/2026/03/12/m...

I absolutely adore @adapalmer.bsky.social's Terra Ignota quartet, among the best novels I've ever read, but I have to say, a story about how a cabal of elite sexual deviants brought down the global order, culminating in a new world war breaking out at the end of the Olympics hits different right now

Almost all people in power are writing dangerously unhinged and ridiculous fictions.

One path AI could take is that all software becomes bespoke software. If it gets good enough at writing code why bother paying for software when you can just ask an AI to make it for you.

HD video drove everyone insane

national treasure 5: bureaucratic archeology

It seems like every platform that streams video, has very inaccurate captions. It’s definitely a hard problem, but auto generated captions, likely using AI, are currently a half-baked technology.

I don’t think Dems realize how abstracted and bureaucratic fighting about tax credits is, even when they are vital to people’s lives. It’s politically boring. Most people are doing plug-n-chug in tax prep software and hoping for the best. #universalhealthcarenow

The tasks that gen AI is used for highlights what is least important to us.

We’re not dealing with brilliant strategists cleverly laying traps, we’re dealing with impulsive whiners whose advantage is contempt for laws, norms, and morality. They’re not pulling some elaborate trick, they’re just willing—even eager—to do things regular, principled people consider off limits.

capitalism just gets us a few gross families dueling each others robot armies over scraps of resources to build more robot armies and launch some frozen corpses into space. we need a better story.

the scary part is that once you admit the internet has real consequences in the world, you have to reckon with the awful bits if you want to understand what’s actually happening

It's stunning to see the elites capitulate so quickly. You'd think they would want to protect the law and the constitution that put them in power, instead of handing over their rights to a geriatric sex criminal.

after a certain point, the design of digital tools becomes arbitrary. then it becomes arts and crafts, where people have to make decisions and implicitly or explicitly put their values and ideas into a product.

The US president trafficked & raped underage girls, the evidence is overwhelming, everyone knows it, and this country's elites & institutions are so broken, so insular, so decadent that we can't even bring ourselves to state it clearly, much less do anything about it. Contemptible & pathetic.

one thing I think we shouldn't lose sight of: these people are stupid, their ideas are bad, they are always wrong about everything. there is no mea culpa big enough to erase the fact that they have a child's understanding of the world and their vision for the future is not worth taking seriously
