@voooooogel honestly this quirk is great for me. it basically baits me into writing essays and doing a bunch of creative/technical work by being wrong in the correct ways

[Steve Acomb @AcombStephen]

That “most important thing in human history” monologue from the [big evil california research lab that created the replicating/misremembering object] poisons the memory themes with the most basic bitch commentary regurgitating normie creatives fears surrounding generative AI

[Steve Acomb @AcombStephen]

The problem is that in Backrooms the memory stuff SHOULDNT be about AI. Liminal space discourse is already massively about memory not AI (official theme of every video essay is everywhere @ end of time) but it feels like hollywood flattened that to trite “AI bad” in backrooms

@DNAisCode @MatthewBerman no and yes. software engineering is not about writing code it’s about requirements definition & system design. jrs will prompt small things and srs will prompt big things. it’s just another abstraction layer

@hopes_revenge I do this weekly

Man goes to doctor. Says he's depressed about AI. He fears the permanent underclass.

Doctor says, "Treatment is simple. Read Gary Marcus. LLMs are stochastic parrots—they can't reason out of distribution."

Man bursts into tears. "But doctor..." he says, "I am in distribution!"

@_Xenofy_ uppies but short for uplift

You are a VC doing a walkthrough of a new defense tech startup.

You see a row of Bambu Lab X1 Carbon printers churning out dozens of prototypes for the future of American anti-drone technology.

You see nothing wrong with this setup. You write them a $250k check.
