including possible effects on the protocols from issues like such as AI fuzzing attempts, to social engineering by AI's,

"You know those massive problems we already had going back decades? Well what if the same problems happened in the future but with the letters 'A' and 'I' prepended? Scary!"

through to how we deal with and approach and facilitate Avatars and Agents.

Gosh darn it don't tell me LLM hype is going to ruin the existing definition of "agent" already well established in web standards.

Alright that's it: anime streaming needs to return to fansubbing (note: this link contains a skintight anime bosom so don't open it in front of your boss unless your boss is chill)

The one human-written slop text I've read in my life was a textbook for a philosophy 101 class. The text was wordy and meandering to the point of being almost unreadable.

The whole department was corrupt though. The textbook was written by the dean, expensive, and was filled with exercises on perforated pages that had to be ripped out and turned in (no photocopies allowed, and hence no secondhand market for the book). The teacher also showed obvious favoritism towards Christian students and found a way to make the entire class about god.

So anyway that's why I never minored in Philosophy.

Before LLMs came along no one cared what tools I did or didn't use at work. Hell will freeze over before I let a text predictor write code for me even if that eventually costs me a job. I'm the sort who can't stand any sort of auto-completion or other typing "help", much less spending all my time reviewing LLM output.

Sure maybe the "Showcase" link doesn't do anything, the "Watch video" link goes to a password protected file, and none of the "Learn More" buttons do anything; but at least they tell you who invested in them as the very first thing on the page!

Also haha I clicked on the blog and this was at the top of the first post:

Here's a Substack post draft that introduces videogame.ai with a compelling and engaging tone suitable for readers interested in games, tech, or the future of creative work:

New use case for AI found: extracting money from venture capital without actually doing any real work.

We should improve society somewhat.

Yet you participate in society. Curious!

Understatement of the year:

I mean, these [concerns about teenagers having access to guns] are questions that are beyond the scope of Metro Schools but need to be addressed by the broader community

That broader community? Why that's called the federal government.

Within 5 minutes of my first hike, the trees smiled at me and whispered their simple wisdom.

This probably only sounds profound to people who haven't been outside in 7 years. Don't get me wrong hiking is good for the soul. But if it hits you that hard after five minutes you're probably terminally online.

~~Also why can't trees have complex wisdom gosh darn it?~~

The guy running a hostile workplace while hanging out with Logan Paul, selling junk food to children, and putting on reality shows so hostile to the contestants that they get compared to torture is... into cryptocurrency?! I'm shocked! Shocked!

Goodness kids need some better role models because sometimes it seems 90% of people on the social networks are morally bankrupt.

The one catch is that because responses from the blockchain can take variable amounts of time, it’s best to request and receive from blockchains using asynchronous methods.

"You may be used to writing websites that actually load in fractions of a second, and so rely on obsolete web2 technologies like synchronous fetches. But don't worry! With modern techniques like async / await your loading spinner will animate flawlessly while the blockchain spends 20 minutes burning down a forest in the background."

You can practically taste the frustration in the "prompt engineering" here. Just one more edge case bro, one more edge case and then the prompt will be perfect!

TL;DR: "I'm no longer a white nationalist because a lot of white people are cucked. Now my new identity is with sufficiently pilled white people. This is much more pragmatic. Also I would totally have a cool black friend if any actually existed which means I'm totally not racist."

Also: did anyone else feel a chill reading about a literal nazi talking about how society accepts him now? America used to despise nazis and now they feel like they can walk around openly. It's terrifying.
