No. Unpunished, open corruption among society’s leaders is the single fastest vector for rotting a society, because why should I believe you, or anyone, or any institution, when the only self-evident strategy that works is that power trumps

The easy way is for a people-pleasing, sycophantic, buxom-female-avatar posing LLM to convince an egocentric, narcissistic, nuclear-weapons owning global political leader/chaos monkey to aim some nukes at someone assuredly deserving. N

Is there something in the water supply over there? This is yet another datum supporting the “US speed-running its own demise” narrative. As an outsider it’s hard to watch all this and wonder 1) why has half the country lost their minds, and

Sorry what? Perhaps this is jurisdiction specific but I’m not sure what you’re referring to. In Australia they’ve recently got their full banking license. I use it for personal and small business banking. Lots of useful features. Can you el

Is there already a law against camping in public spaces? Apply that law. Any treatment of groups other than according to the law (when the law itself makes no mention of a discriminating attribute) is racism/sexism/etc. One law fo

I think one attack vector where anthropomorphisation is a key part of the attack mechanism is - as it already is IRL - the meat-bag weakest link ie. social engineering. We’ve already seen humans fall prey to the seductive charms of LLMs (eg

I think your position, while not uncommon, represents a failure of imagination. We have a sitting president that appears to suffer from narcissism. Is it too much of a stretch to believe that a goal-seeking, people-pleasing, infinitely pati

A bit of blue-sky mining here. What if this trend continues and accelerates? Microsoft have 3 options: 1. Continue their merry way and cede market share. 2. De-enshitify Windows and win back market share. 3. If you can’t beat them, join the
