There are so many stories like this and we're probably seeing only the tip of the iceberg.
I assume, broadly, we'll see very similar reporting eventually on Claude and target generation in Trump's Iran War
This from 2024 is essential reporting about AI, target generation, and tempo, deadly deadly deadly tempo.

No, because it's clearly a much better one. Rolls off the tongue nicely too.
Knowing the work of both of you makes this exchange all the more funnier.
I thought this was some hoax but nope, it's real. #Tactilemedia

Det lurer jeg også på.
Great piece that has this zinger: "It is basically a cosmic game of telephone where information is passed through a process that privileges the frequency of information over nearly all else."
Stack of Verso books
Just received thisstack of books from @versobooks.bsky.social. Especially excoted to read @lsiraganian.bsky.social Problem of Personhood.
Pfft, it's rogues.
The latest in weird data-harvesting technology: Fitbit for Farts. www.flatus.info
What if corporations gave us interactive dolls that sapped your life force and intelligence and programmed you to do their bidding, and a fandom formed around ceding yourself to the dolls and role-playing abeying yourself before them in public while chastising people who don’t want to surrender?
Urgh.
When will he run out of stupid shit to say?
Next to prompt injection, now we also have chatbot optimization, the new SEO.
Yes please.
Reminds me of Libya under Qadaffi and Egypt under Mubarak. Shit like this was everywhere, especially in Tripoli.

Dude who wrote about how "the left is missing out on AI" is on here. Do you see who they are funded by? The biggest EA funders, the longtermist institutes we've been writing about and documenting, including FLI where Muskrat is still an advisor.
Yes, just a bit. Placed my order but thanks for the recc.
It is very hypercritical. Right now, Klæbo has won 5 gold in this Olympics, he could win yet another (which would be a record of some sorts if I understand). But he would like not have won as many this year if Bolshunov was competing, his closest competition and rival. He's a Z guy...
Cross country. Women's cross country is not as good as it used to be. And yeah, we've also been at the top but not always dominated. Helps that Russia can't compete now for example. We had some great alpine skiers too for a while, currently have one in the Olympics but he crashed out (literally).
With skiing, definitively and to be clear, on the men's side. Their female skiers are doing great.
They're shit now relative to their past glories. Not sure what happened in Sweden or why we managed to stay on top for that long but heavy funding is likely one reason. The hockey thing is weird. Growing up, I think I can remember one person that played hockey; soccer and skiing more pop
To be fair, Sweden used to be really good, the rivalry was intense even just a few years ago when Northug was a beast about a decade ago. Without strong Swedish skiers, he wouldn't have been pushed that hard.
on the Left's supposed silence on AI: the concrete things happening at the moment conform in a pretty granular way to the picture Marx draws of technological innovation in the process of capital. the center, liberals, and the hype people all seem surprised, where no Marxist cd be
Ended up ordering Disordered Attention, which may pair well with Investigative Aesthetics by Fuller and Weizman.
Ordered it!
Thanks for the Bishop recommendation; Disordered Attention is intriguing. We seems to share the same taste in authors as I have Srincek's and Fraser's Verso books already.
