Exciting to live in a world where companies argue if ai deserves rights while using ai to kill actual children.

@WhiteHouse Thank god we have AI making our lives better with…the White House using AI to vibe code up as many kinds of intellectual theft as they can, apparently.

@WhiteHouse I honestly expected „Lake America“ to be written in crayon here

@BasedMikeLee I’ll help. It’s the taxing and spending clause.

@RandPaul I mean, it wasn’t, still isn’t, but go off I guess

I think the most wild thing about this is Shakespeare literally creating many words we use today. When you ask an llm to do it, it slaps together word fragments into something that would even be embarrassing in a Harry Potter novel.

[Nanda @SpeaksNanda]

Something that rly shaped my views was a friend asserting that LLMs could write as well as Shakespeare, and I was pretty scathing. So he presented me w/ four sonnets. And they sucked! They weren't even in iambic pentameter.

Anyway it turned out that one of them was Sonnet 145.

Every time I think Elon has say the stupidest thing I’ve ever heard about AI, he just. Keeps. Talking.

[Shruti @heyshrutimishra]

Elon Musk just said something about AI that nobody wants to hear.

If you force an AI to believe things that are not true, it will not just be wrong. It will go insane.

He made a point that cuts deeper than any AI safety paper I have read. AI must value truth. Not your truth. Not my truth. Actual truth.

The moment you build ideological guardrails into a system that is smarter than you, you are not protecting anyone. You are creating something that is powerful and delusional at the same time.

He compared it to a human being forced to believe contradictions. Eventually the brain breaks. Now scale that to an intelligence that runs infrastructure, writes code, and makes decisions at speeds humans cannot follow.

The companies building AI right now are not just deciding what it can do. They are deciding what it must pretend to believe. And that might be the most dangerous decision of all.

@RepBrandonGill You’re confused. London doesn’t have no-go zones. We just don’t want you here. You specifically.

@RealJamesWoods Working hard to protect „elactions“

[mindful violence @hanamizuki08]

This is such a fascinating argument to me because I’m sure it sounds convincing, but then you have to ask “how much does preschool cost?” And also “how much more demanding (and expensive) are the needs of older children vs literal preschoolers?”

Maybe $21,456 is a bargain?

[Corey A. DeAngelis, school choice evangelist @DeAngelisCorey]

Government schools spend $21,456 per child per year.

Imagine if that money went directly to families instead.

A teacher could set up a microschool with just 14 students and pull in $300,384 a year.

@hasanthehun Aka the Covid time joy of „Of course I had to raise my prices, I saw you get some money.“

[mindful violence @hanamizuki08]

@hasanthehun I suppose this makes sense if you accept as reasonable that the function of the market is to recognise every time you have a spare dollar and work to extract it from you. But this feels like an admission of the problem rather than a rational solution to it.

See, they do understand self-identification when it affects them.
