Machines are tools, not persons. Today, some propose granting these systems rights, or even legal personhood. Such an approach risks obscuring human responsibility and leaving those who suffer harm to confront a faceless entity.

I’m a little tipsy for the first time in a bit, and it really has me in my feels. This time last month I was over the Atlantic, on my way to happiness and joy and love, and now I’m drinking cheap whiskey and watching YouTube. It just doesn’t seem fair

Let’s get rid of AI!
Reddit's earnings call has exposed the new reality for thousands of companies. "AI mode does not drive traffic. Not for us and not to anybody as far as I know. It used to be a traffic driver. Now it's not." - Reddit CEO. The reality is that AI is fundamentally changing the way that humans access the internet. Just 24 hours prior to this statement, Google's stock erased -$480 billion on the same issue: AI is disrupting the traditional search model. For decades, the internet operated on a simple model. Search engines directed users to websites, and those websites monetized the traffic. AI is destroying this business model, and it's happening at an accelerating pace. The traditional model of internet traffic is rapidly becoming outdated. The internet has entered a new era.

I miss being a place where polenta is served all the time, a double shot of whiskey is cheaper than a cappuccino, and hugs and kisses were readily available.

Looks like my slow ass is going to be nothing but playing this game for the next decade
Rockstar confirms that GTA 6's map is nearly as large as the maps of GTA 4, GTA 5 and Red Dead Redemption 2 combined. This is confirmed by the mapping project, GTA 6's map can fit all of them together, the scale is something we've never experienced before from Rockstar.

it’s always been orange and black? with purple and poison green as supporting characters
It's cool that purple and orange have become the canonical Halloween colors like red and green are for Christmas. Halloween did not have canonical colors when I was a kid.

I’m sure this is just bait, but this whole thing and the discourse around it is annoying me so bad. Just say you don’t want to go. It’s not that hard. And stop using your child as an excuse. It’s not their place to be your shield from having to communicate like an adult.
My friend wants to plan a couples, no-kids weekend getaway, splitting the cost of a large AirBNB, in January for her 30th birthday. I really do not love this idea (husband is mortified), neither to spend the money nor to get someone to take the toddler for 3 days. It would be a 2.5 hour drive away for us, too, so it’s not like we’re close if something happens. I haven’t been away from him for even 1 night yet and he still just seems so young! It would be very hard to leave him for that long. Am I just a party pooper who needs to get over it? Genuine question. Like I actually need advice here guys

Man, I really dislike this person and every single person defending her. I am confrontation-avoiding people pleaser, and I still think this is stupid and childish. Just say “Hey, this is pretty expensive and it’s not for us this time. Let’s do dinner before you go!” That’s it!

“Without human authorization” is pretty convenient for the humans at Anthropic to deflect accountability for the felony crimes their IP keeps committing.

everyday people log on this website to let everyone know that they are bad friends and generally miserable people. not me tho, I’ll be picking my friends up from the airport, letting them crash on my couch, and going to their birthday trips bc my life is filled with love and joy
Pet peeve of mine is adults that make a very big deal about their birthdays & expect that their friends are obligated to participate

Chada the bear from a sanctuary near Kyiv has become a social media star. A video of her emerging from her den has gone massively viral.

No, fuck that. Everything is awful and no one is promised tomorrow, so I am going to celebrate the fact that I’m gotten to the next checkpoint, and I want to celebrate it for my loved ones too. We are still alive, and that’s worth celebrating, you joyless curmudgeon.
Everyones got a take but I think we are ignoring the real villain in this story: adults who want birthday weekends.

Next we need to dismantle the AI data centres.
