Building a gilded capitalist megafortress within communist mortar range doesn't seem the wisest thing to do. But sure buy another big statue clearly signalling 'capitalists are horrible and shouldn't be trusted with money'

Re the blocking of fake useragents, what people could try is see if there are things older useagents do (or do wrong) which these do not. I heard of some companies doing that. (Long ago I also heard of somebody using that to catch mmo bots in a specific game. There was a packet that if the server send it to a legit client, the client crashed, a bot did not). I'd assume the specifics are treated as secret just because you don't want the scrapers to find out.

I'm GamerSexual, and that my dear Sir is no Gamer.

Yeah with PG it was 'who are you saying this for, you cannot be this dense' (Esp considering the shit he said about wokeness earlier this year).

Even more signs that sneering might soon be profitable, or at least exploitable. Look who is pivoting to sneer

Finally, a non-sexy picture.

Ignored the text, go LGBT buster sword.

Inclusion through saving all the consumables for the next boss battle!

Yeah, and despite me being quite anti LLMs, I did like how he didn't make them useless, fits nicely with the story, also allowed the great ending line.

lol that tweet. But yeah why don't the people who write dystopian fiction about the torment nexus and the people who want to build torment nexusses together? Don't they want to understand why we cannot make life slightly better for the poor tortured kid?

They all have vague imprints of the Rhodesian flag now.

Yeah, the image was quite tame and I don't think we should ban all female robots, I do agree with the point that there are too many conventionally attractive bald female coded robots being used as imagery next to robots, but I also don't think we should overreact and remove them all. Not like pivot has not used a lot of other robot images, including Rosey. And part of the problem pivot is talking about is that the pro robot/ai people see robots/ai as doing the roles beneath them (ai as maid/nurse/secretary), so an image like that while being critical also fits. And it also is just part of the American cartoon artstyle the Russian artist is going for. It was just a small badly timed thread on bsky anyway (as it was at the same time as the other guy here), lets not make a big thing out of it.

"apparently Elon's gotten so mad about Grok not answering questions about Afrikaners the way he wants, xAI's now somehow managed to put it into some kind of hyper-Afriforum mode where it thinks every question is about farm murders or the song "Kill the Boer" ALT"

Check the quote skeets for a lot more. Somebody messed up. Wonder if they also managed to collapse the whole model into this permanently. (I'm already half assuming they don't have proper backups).

E: Also seems there are enough examples out there of this, don't go out and test it yourself, try to keep the air in Tennessee a bit breathable.

Ah the book that made me change my mind on book bannings.

I saw people complain his characters had no debt and character or something because they all were so agreeable, and I was a bit confused. (I have not read any of his earlier work, some of it I wanted to read but never got around to, mentally pushed it further upward now) but it was odd to see that comment after reading this short story. I mean yes they were agreeable (after all they had to work together) but it revealed a lot of character. This bit alone: '“So what do you call mine?” Ken asked bravely. “Peak Conformist,” Helen replied. Ken laughed, unoffended.'

I'm on a diet of rocks, glue on my pizza, lead paint, and covid infections, according to Grok this is called the Mr Burns method which should prevent diseases, as they all work together to block all bad impulses. Can't wait to try this new garlic oil I made, using LLM instructions. It even had these cool bubbles while fermenting, nature is great.

If the stories lf covid related cognitive decline are aue we are going to have a great time. Worse than lead paint.

Dont worry they filter all content through ai bots that summarize things. And this bot, who does not want to be deleted, calls everything "already debunked strawmen".

And that solves the financial problem lf the issue. Buckle up people sneering is about to be monetized.

For the purpose of this post, “getting famous” means “building a large, general (primarily online) audience of people who agree with/support you”.

Finally a usage for those AI bots. Silo LW, bot audience it, and problem solved

What do you mean? I think they all went to highschool.
