That is how crashes work. AI is not going anywhere. Did the internet disappear when the dot com bubble popped in 2001? Because I think I still see me some internet around here.
Just because you want something or believe something doesn’t mean you must live in fantasy world. Why do so many people do this?

Well there goes a couple hundred thou and some jobs.
Whoa I want to try that.

That is a fine solution. I’ll do it. I have no compunctions about taking out trash. I’d not enjoy it. I’m not sick in that way. But it just wouldn’t trouble my conscience any.
The Gender-Based Rights Conundrum.
The Junior Hiring Crisis. People who claim this is not a crisis are wrong wrong wrongity wrong. So wrong.

Stewart has the right idea. Anthropic should’ve included more books; all the books it could get its hands on. The idea that AI is a “plagiarism machine” is a fucking ludicrous notion by unserious people. And that $1.5 billion is a ridiculous judgment as no actual author was harmed in any way by an AI “reading” their work that then transforms the text into tokens, runs that through the LLM’s network and then only keeps the weights at the end (no book text). That’s a really, really basic gloss of how LLMs work. If you accept that as plagiarism, then your brain is also plagiarizing any time it reads something.
I’d like to give an throp up side the head to anyone who instigates shit like this. Copyright prevents so much, and now the idiot left — after being against copyright maximalism for three decades — has gone to that camp because it now appeals to their degrowther tendencies. Fortunately, Stewart is on the left but not the now-majority idiot left.
What’s your dream car if money isn’t a concern?
1963 Chevrolet Corvette Split Window Coupe 4-Speed.
I mean, I could afford one now. But I have no desire to maintain and insure a car that old. It’d be a lot of money, work, and time.
That’s probably the most beautiful mass-production American car ever made, though.
"Women cannot be useful to the progress of the arts” – declared the French Academy, in its ban.
But.. Adélaïde Labille-Guiard was admitted in 1783 patronised by the King, strategically pivoted to the Republic, & also advocated for women's inclusion.

Lord, look at the detail on that satin. I cannot even begin to imagine how to do that. Lady had skill.
The modern left is extremely weird because they have suicidal empathy for what should be their sworn enemies, but extreme antipathy and hostility to those who should be their natural allies.
My hypothesis is that this is born of long-term internalized self-hatred, catalyzed by precarity and a feeling of ideological and cultural rootlessness. It’s a sickness peculiar to empires that have no frontiers left to the expand into, and whose people see no future beyond decline and decay.
Still, I hate those people as much as they hate themselves. One thing I do not possess is suicidal empathy; I wish to destroy my enemies. I can pity them after they are deceased.
Even though it was next in a YouTube playlist I was listening to and watching, I have to admit I almost skipped this because it looked like a thirst trap and clickbait1. Glad I didn’t because it’s an incredibly good live performance.
Alas I do not know Portuguese so you get nothing from me in that. I can kinda/sorta understand it as it’s a lot like Spanish and Italian but that’s it. Also, Marina’s hair is cool.
I worked with an intern who didn’t know what a CD was. She did know what a vinyl record was, though, as they’ve made an unfortunate return. She did have a vague notion that CDs were the “little silver records.”
The degrowthers are always moving the goalposts. For example, with self-driving cars. Degrowthers:
1) Self-driving is impossible anywhere and shouldn’t even be tried!
Reality: Self-driving is working pretty well via Waymo in quite a few cities, and is improving all the time.
2) Ok, self-driving works but it’s incredibly dangerous.
Reality: Self-driving appears to be much safer by any measure.
3) Self-driving can’t work in bad weather conditions! Ever!
Reality: Also improving all the time and humans are also terrible, terrible drivers in adverse weather.
4) Self-driving cars can’t work while being attacked by a dinosaur during an earthquake combined with an alien invasion and the gates of Hell opening up!
Reality: Well, ok, you got me there.
Degrowthers just hate any improvement in life, tech (especially) or anything else. It’s like some horrid personal affront to them. So let’s affront them a lot more, since they suck!
Trump is Making Health Care Unaffordable Again.
Homeland Security Relaxes Species Requirements To Join ICE. OMG I love those images.
No, Gaza Is Not the Worst or Deadliest War by Any Measure.
The missile meant to strike fear in Russia’s enemies fails once again.
Men are physically stronger than women…This is not a “harmful stereotype.” Unless you’re nuts.
The Data on Self-Driving Cars Is Clear. We Have to Change Course.
If I were a woman alone on the street, I can’t think of anything scarier than a buncha obviously-Islamic men approaching me.
Too bad they can’t carry big-ass guns in Europe. I used to be against concealed carry, largely. But a woman has no hope against that. She needs the boomstick and to lay down shots non-stop till they Quran-thumping asses drop.
