Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

New Ed Zitron: "How to Argue With An AI Booster", an hour-long read dedicated to exactly what it says on the tin.
I'm curious, do you get paid for being a multiprotocol rss repeater?
I don't know if they do but as someone too lazy to actually set up an RSS feed I deeply appreciate it.
I appreciate it, and this also gives us an easy way to discuss it as Zitron seems to be quite popular here. So makes sense to me to just also post it here. And not everybody uses RSS (or Eds one).
maybe that means something like this should be a linkblog/{atom,rss,...} feedsite on its ace?
No, I do this for the love of the game
Being paid 90s tv ad money has to suck donkey nads :<
Even for the people that do get email notifications of Zitron's excellent content (like myself), I appreciate having a place here to discuss it.
It's a nice master post that gets all his responses and many useful articles linked into one place. It's all familiar if you've kept up with techtakes and Zitron's other posts and pivot-to-ai, but I found a few articles I had previously missed reading.
Related trend to all the but achskhually's AI booster's like to throw out. Has everyone else noticed the trend where someone makes a claim of a rumor they heard about an LLM making a genuine discovery in some science, except it's always repeated second hand so you can't really evaluate it, and in the rare cases they do have a link to the source, it's always much less impressive than they made it sound at first...
