I resigned from Anthropic today. I spent the last three years doing pretraining research at both OpenAI and Anthropic. Neither company is acting responsibly. They are racing straight to self-improving superintelligence and gambling with our lives. More thoughts below.
En Birmingham (Reino Unido), durante una conferencia del líder ultraderechista Nigel Farage, dos chicas fueron brutalmente agredidas por los fans octogenarios del fascista británico, chicas que podrían ser sus nietas.
Poco se habla de cómo se ha radicalizado a la gente mayor en el racismo, estos abuelos no han sido envenenados por ningún "influencer".... han sido los medios capitalistas tradicionales que consumen a diario, los que están las 24 horas del día dando voz a la ultraderecha por TV y contando hasta la última pelea de pueblo que haya para intoxicar y jalear el racismo.
I'm going to be sick... mentioned here is the Mexican Grey wolf, of wish there are only a mere 300 remaining. Not that the few thousand Grey wolves are far removed. We worked so hard to bring them back from near extinction, this is awful

A proper mess of a window.
Liftoff! @NASARoman begins its flight to space. The Roman telescope’s wide field of view will generate never-before-seen images, revolutionizing our understanding of the universe.

“Nepal is paying an extraordinarily disproportionate price for a crisis it did not create,” @sumnima_udas
“It’s as if Nepalis are having to alternate between the disasters we cause and the ones that just arrive.” @AnupKaphle
it's weird how many posts here are about how to improve your physical appearance to increase your attractiveness, but literally nothing on how to be witty, charming, funny, intelligent, or any other attractive quality.
Mladic on how to get away with genocide:
"We musn't say that we are going to destroy Sarajevo. We are not going to say that we are going turn off the water supply, but... well, one day there is no water in Sarajevo... We must wisely tell the world it was they who were shooting"
