Manager at Associated Press Tells Journalists That Resistance to AI Is Futile A senior manager at the Associated Press enthused about AI to rank and file journalists, who were not amused.

"Resistance is futile" — famously a phrase said by the good guys.

FOR A STUDENT WHO USED AI TO WRITE A PAPER Now I let it fall back in the grasses. I hear you. I know this life is hard now. I know your days are precious on this earth. But what are you trying to be free of? The living? The miraculous task of it? Love is for the ones who love the work.

Because AI can't write, it can only generate strings of word salad slop.

A normal convo is proving hard these days. There’s only so much nice weather & cool series talk you can do before the convo moves into anything else & when you’re informed about what’s going on, what’s actually “normal” all sounds like doomerism. The alternative is keeping it vapid which I can’t do.

The killing of Iranian children during an illegal war is an impeachable offense.

The character Amelia Bedelia, wearing a white pinafore over a dark blue dress and a blue hat ringed with pink flowers, is hanging lightbulbs on a popup clothesline alongside a pair of green socks. Overlaid is a post from user kevinfroleiks: "AI is like what if a computer was also Amelia Bedelia."

I am trying to break myself of the decades long bad habit of tucking my feet under the chair while I'm sitting at the table (Feet upside down and pointing backwards) and it's a HARD habit to break.

"The main idea - after SARS-CoV-2 infection, patients may develop a persistent alteration of the gut microbiome. This does not only mean a different bacterial composition, but also the production of different signaling particles - so-called gut microbiota-derived extracellular vesicles (GMEVs)."

christians looking for jesus in every war we start, every missile we fire, every conquering despot we crown, and never in the one place jesus promised he could be found: among the poor, the starving, the oppressed.

you do not need to wait for jesus to “come back.” dig through the rubble of any bombed out apartment complex, office building or, yes, girls’ school, and you’ll find him there, covered in dust.

A covered litter box. A fluffy kitten sits inside, facing out, her little front paws resting on the bottom edge of the entrance opening. She looks a little concerned.

This pic for a litter box looks like the kitten is working at a beachside snack shack and it's her first day and in her head, as she says, "Welcome to Herring House, how may I help you today?" she's silently thinking, "Please just want oyster crackers," because she ate all the herring.

An unexpected benefit of taking a late-night train on a Saturday is that the coughing and the sneezing combined with the drunken roaring and predictably unpleasant sounds coming from the toilet is a powerful reminder that avoiding Covid and staying sober are wise life choices.

Please seek emergency care for the stroke you seem to be experiencing.

kamala harris would have been just as bad in the sense that she ran on beefing up cops, criminalizing protest, increasing funding for ICE, and committed to making the american military "the greatest fighting force in the world." then she would've lost re-election to an even more explicit fascist.

that's a full shitlib bingo in a single post. we've got:

islamaphobia
genocide apologia
obscure homophobia
accusation of cosplay
infantilization
being a stupid asshole

NUREMBERG TRIALS FOR EVERYONE WHO PARTICIPATED IN THIS ADMINISTRATION .

if you genuinely believe leftist purity tests are the reason for your electoral defeat, and you do not endeavor to pass them next time, you are Not A Serious Person

i accepted this ages ago, which is why i never cuss at well adjusted people, only at rancid bigots who support genocide and call things like human rights and basic survival needs a "purity test"

@youbettaglowgrl - i swear by journaling but this is hilarious @qabta123 - journaling was the most useless thing i ever attempted. not only am i still suffering but now there's evidence

Dunno if this helps anyone but a reason why “don’t engage, just block” is so effective is that most troll culture is just about them feeling like they’ve won by virtue of having made you waste your time. It’s just emotional vampirism. Once you understand that, engaging seems pointless.

It's weird to me that people were surprised that Bill Gates was in the Epstein files. Like...really? You were surprised that the guy who invented Internet Explorer 6 was evil??

Come on.

Watching the classical performance internet drag Timothee Calamity to hell and back is incredibly entertaining.

If I were a dude who only recently added a fourth facial expression to my acting rep I simply would not come for the best in the business but that’s me.

Siri can I feed flamin’ hot cheetos to my 6 month old baby

HAHAHA.
I feel personally attacked.

And 99% of airline passengers vote for no masks on airplanes because they’re sick of the mildest inconvenience and besides it’s just a cold anyway and wait are you still going on about that thing from six years ago? #COVID

Scene from Andor.

The war on Iran is unfolding alongside a wave of mass layoffs in the US. These are not separate crises. They are two sides of the same offensive by the ruling class against the working class.

Challenge for those who are very confident rocks aren't conscious: Explain how human consciousness works.
