I was just thinking of the time my friend, who speaks five languages and is learning a sixth, forgot the English word for “speakers” due to being exhausted and called them “sound boxes.”

AI Ayo
MIT report: AI can already replace nearly 12% of the U.S. workforce.
I agree with that assessment. No matter what you’ve read — particularly if you’re on the left and predisposed to hate tech and any form of knowledge advancement that doesn’t relate to a new, innovative gender — the newest AI models are quite good at many things. Certainly they could replace most of the juniors in my own field that I’ve worked with over the years and many of the mid-level folks too.
No one is reckoning with how quickly this fact is being weaponized by the MBA class or that it’s already demonstrably occurring. Predictably, economists are and will be in denial about this at least a decade after it is already happening.

Norm McDonot
When I try to use the internet like normies do — no adblock, no DNS filtering, no quality firewall — I’m like, “What the hell is going on? Why is all that crap flying around all over the screen? What is all that noise?”
I do not know how they do it. Couldn’t be me.

What is the biggest misinformation you remember being taught in school?
That fungi are a type of plant.
I disputed this and noted that fungi were an entirely different kingdom of life, but was told to be quiet and learn it the way it was taught. Of course, I did not.
