Remarkably, the letter’s signees include Ilya Sutskever, the company’s chief scientist and a member of its board, who has been blamed for coordinating the boardroom coup against Altman in the first place.

I am so confused.

Ah that explains it. Thanks!

I thought they had already done it. I got the notification months ago.

I’ve never used twitter in my life, still have a vague interest in what Musk is doing to it though.

That tracks.

Pretty sure Elon Musk railed against bots on twitter despite having been proven to have used bots on twitter to manipulate opinion himself.

Apart from my illness support group, I’m only on fediverse social media now, and only via web browser. It’s a breath of fresh air.

I’m realising there are subtle ways that enshittification constrains and shapes actual conversations between us.

Outside is in my top 5. It really holds up.

The accoustic version of Dead Man Walking with just Bowie and Reeves Gabrels is probably one of my all time favourites.

Yes I had a family member in a right wing conspiracy area. It was infuriating because his friends would tell him their nonsense and he would be skeptical and google it, only for google to seemingly support what they were saying.

I couldn’t replicate his results at all and it would take a lot of searching to even find what he was talking about so I could debunk it for him.

When will people realise that google has tailored algorithms and we are not all experiencing the same search results?

The first thing you’ll see if you search Google for “tank man” right now will not be the iconic picture of the unidentified Chinese man who stood in protest in front of a column of tanks leaving Tiananmen Square, but an entirely fake, AI-generated selfie of that historical event.

No, this is the first thing the author saw. Probably because they are a journalist writing about AI.

When I google tank man I don’t even get the AI image on the first page. The top result is from history.com. If I go to google image search it is the 7th result on the page. The top result is from wikipedia.

Nooo

I was so disillusioned when I found out Americans are giving strippers $1 bills.

I’d always assumed it was a much higher denomination, partly because where I live the smallest denomination is $5 but partly because of the money strippers were making.

So if they also accept payment by card then it’s your choice to carry coins around for them. Sounds like it’s really just street musicians that are keeping you needing coins.

Which is cool.

It was kind of intuitive over the years; it just fell together that way.

So he’s intuitively racist and sexist. Got it.
