A cream jug on a table, with a cloth with oranges, on the wall behind a study of a man sitting on a bed.
#SomethingBeautiful another still life from my aunt, Mary Lace. The painting on the wall is one she did in college.

Précis of the précis: the US wants to treat literally every other country as an enemy, while wanting every other country to treat the US like an ally.
FT comments section this morning - saying what everyone else is thinking, right?
*Let's not overlook the world's warmest and kindliest chatbot instantly transforming into a carnivorous killbot war-machine
for those of you who werent adults during iraq, its hard to overstate how much the media loves war porn. they salivate over pentagon spin briefings. they love stories about all the bombs and how supposedly infallible they are. they love the notion of the commander in chief, in the situation room etc
Sorry I'm not more open-minded about LLMs, it's just some fucking maniacs shoveled out a bunch of useless bloatware featuring that technology, did not give me any chance to opt out, reorganized the entire economy around it, zeroed out gains made by green energy, and made it impossible to buy RAM
"Europeans have chosen ... to reconcile their values and beliefs by inventing a parallel reality. They continue to profess norms but apply them to an imaginary world in which Iran woke up one morning and attacked Israel and its Gulf neighbors"
As many people have correctly pointed out: the worst outcome of this war is nuclear annihilation.

at some point. and it may not be in my lifetime. there will be a reassessment of the Late Queen and her decisions around AMW.
BBC Newsnight O @BBCNews... •10h "The UK-US relationship is like an iceberg, seven-eighths of it is beneath the surface" X Ex-UK National Security Adviser Sir Mark Lyall Grant says that despite Trump's "not Churchill we're dealing with" remarks about Starmer, "all will be well by the end of the week"
Yes: we gladly swallow any insults, ignore their open contempt, assist in wars that are devastating to our own national interest and sit quietly while the America government openly tries to shitehouse us towards fascism, like them. Why? You tell me mate: because It’s How Things Are Done, I guess.

"Once upon a time a widow had two darling little girls & they made friends with a bear & a dwarf was mean to them & when the dwarf got knocked dead the bear became a prince & married Snow White & lived happily ever after"
Me: I can do something with that
100,000 words later: BONE & BLOOD :D
This is a hugely important story: everyone concerned with learning and truth should read it. Presented with prompts about a lesser-known turn-of-the-last-century composer, an LLM produces a nice, clear readable evaluation of her Symphony No. 1 - which DOESN'T EXIST. Everything is made up. 😵💫
If you teach please show your students this. If you're a student, please read this.
The answers LLMs generate are not all alike. They are more likely to hallucinate on topics we don't already know a lot about. Even answers with "sources" shouldn't be trusted.
