not really gonna sugarcoat it; I straight up don’t think you’re qualified to be a reviewer if you fundamentally misunderstand Frankenstein to this degree Like, that’s the book, bud. Thats how it all happens in *one of the most famous works of literary fiction in human history*

This literally shut me down. I used to get clients who want to make toys because they visited my site for blog posts and information. Now they don't need to. Google scraped my content and regurgitates it at the top of the search. Zero visitors now. No clients.
This is how websites die. Data from @pewresearch shows that Google users are more likely to end their browsing session entirely after being presented with an AI Overview compared to result pages without one. 🔗 https://t.co/DeEWfUrVV1

This is a great question, we need to be consistent in the venom we have for surveillance pricing.
Why does AI-driven algorithmic pricing draw so much consumer and gov't blowback when applied to Wendy's hamburgers and Delta Airlines tickets, but is quietly accepted on billions of Uber rideshare trips every year? @uber @RebeccaBellan @sergioaved

This. Google search in the aughts was orders of magnitude better and easier than any of the AI slop being pushed right now. They want us to feel like AI is magic, but they already had it bottled, and tossed it away.

Yes. Writing is not a second thing that happens after thinking. The act of writing is an act of thinking. Writing *is* thinking. Students, academics, and anyone else who outsources their writing to LLMs will find their screens full of words and their minds emptied of thought.

Just a reminder that the West destroyed Iran’s progressive democracy in 1953, deposing a leader beloved of the people, and installed a dictatorship in his place. The US and UK have been terrorising that country for as long as any of us have been alive. It’s sick.

The important bit is that the expectation of massive waste was set by the past experience at tech companies.
DOGE employee says "I personally was pretty surprised, actually, at how efficient the government was," fraud was minimal, and abuse was "relatively nonexistent" https://t.co/k0d0bOcgIi

As Anthony Bourdain once said, “as much as we think we know…we have barely scratched the surface of what Mexican food really is...It is in fact, old — older even than the great cuisines of Europe, and often deeply complex, refined, subtle, and sophisticated.”
Every Mexican dish is just a taco in slightly different forms. The most redundant and least diverse cuisine on the planet. It's time to be honest about this.

Counterpoint: I'm willing to bet if you actually counted the number of American men hunting cave-dwelling pho vendors versus those just door-dashing pizza (or eating mustard from a jar with a comb), the former make up barely perceptible minority.
“The cult of personality Anthony Bourdain left in his wake is frankly insufferable,” says The FP’s @SnoozyWeiss. “He broke how a generation of men eat.”

Unlike the nonsensical focus on trade deficits, the fact that so many bright young people have for years come to the US to study, research, and often then build careers was a sort of global intellectual imbalance in the US's favor.

In all my years on this app, I have never seen someone, let alone the CEO of a big company, run paid ads to posts where he is getting absolutely destroyed and ratiod in the replies. We’re witnessing history being made

Dinesh slyly conflating criminal immigrants like himself with non-criminal immigrants.
@AlexJKelly I do love immigrants. I am one, after all. But are you conflating immigrants with criminal illegals? That seems to be the sly move you are making here

Right? Like a silly little malpractice suit alleging a drunk surgeon cut vital nerves and blood vessels while failing to remove the target tumor in another organ.

This appears to be made with actual, substantial bread, not whatever amalgam of sawdust and CO2 Subway binds together with blood magic glamor.
