So frustrating

OpenAI Is Opening the Door to Government Spying Outside OpenAI’s headquarters, a handful of people gathered on Monday holding pieces of colorful chalk. They got down on their knees and started writing messages on the sidewalk. Stand for liberty. Please no legal mass surveillance. Change the contract please. At issue was a business deal that the company recently signed with the Department of Defense, following the Pentagon’s sudden turn against Anthropic. OpenAI will now supply its technology to the military for use in classified settings, the sorts that may involve wartime decisions and intelligence-gathering—an agreement, many legal experts told me, that could give the government wide-ranging powers. “I would just really like to see OpenAI do the right thing and stand up for something, anything,” Niki Dupuis, an AI-start-up founder and one of the chalk protesters, told me. In a widely leaked internal memo that Sam Altman sent last Thursday night, a copy of which I obtained, the OpenAI CEO said that he would seek “red lines” to prevent the Pentagon from using OpenAI products for mass domestic surveillance and autonomous lethal weapons. These were ostensibly the very same limits that Anthropic had demanded and that had infuriated the Pentagon, leading Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth to declare the...

We are in a very stupid timeline. I hope you are correct but we are sadly going in a very different direction.

He’s good, man.

Pookie 😘lol

At least it’s grammatically correct. I hate when lyrics, regardless of how nonsensical, are grammatically incorrect. Maddening.

Got my presale tix this morning to see Gorillaz in Miami in September and I am beside myself with excitement.

So clever to have on the shelf for reference should the need arise, but with other cookbooks, for fun.

Nope. I want to see Ohtani.

ICE detains reporter Estefany Rodríguez in Nashville - Nashville Banner Reporter Estefany Rodríguez, detained by ICE with no arrest warrant, may face deportation. Her attorneys seek immediate review of the legality of her case.

ICE has arrested and detained a Nashville journalist who reported stories critical of ICE. She’s married to a U.S. citizen and has been seeking asylum here after fleeing death threats in Colombia because of her journalism there.

They’ve already sent her to Louisiana.

This looks like an aerial view

That was exactly my first thought when I saw this. YES and UGH.

Please Don’t let it affect my Gorillaz tour presale in the morning. They’re coming to Miami 🤘🏽

Went for a walk after work and stopped in the middle of the street when I saw this rainbow. The world is full of wonders waiting for us to notice.

I was recently at a fine dining establishment that used this method rather than switching out our flatware each dish (for a chefs tasting) and I ran out of spoons before the ice cream dessert. I found the method somewhat lazy and annoying. What do you think?

They play the Marlins on Saturday. I think there’s a chance 🐠

I was up to my elbows in dirt over the weekend repotting and pruning, and my husband came outside and said you look so beautiful and so happy. There is something magical that happens when we garden.

They’ve had power to stop lots of things over the past year but alas here we are. I’m exhausted from reminding people about coequal branches of government.

Needed some time in nature yesterday so we went to Flamingo Gardens and met this beautiful 6 month old panther.

Every time I hear those particular three little words, it reminds me that people can’t defend their actions and they say it so you’ll stop asking questions. It’s always the response to some bullshit.

open.spotify.com/track/5pMMyQ... immersing in the new Gorillaz album today and it’s got some Grammy tingles. It’s got some classic vibes, and feels like if Flight of the Conchords and 1970s David Bowie had a baby in Asia. Unique and thought provoking. 10 out of 10.

Yes! I had to google that episode name. Definitely genius. There are so many moments they capture that have magic, but that full episode is ethereal.

I like it even when it doesn’t work. It’s mesmerizing

I’m rewatching Girls on HBO and it’s remarkable for the same reasons. And remarkable because the actors and the stories are so freaking good.

Fewer and fewer people having more and more power and wealth will surely end well.
