how are all of the AI girlfriend services doing? The last time it hit the news, one service ("replica" or something silly like that?) cut off the lewdness which angered users greatly. Are there new players in this space?

the hypocritic oath

(the joke doesn't really work but I had to do it)

can't wait for impotent blubbering about alignment while everyone's lives are made measureably worse by greedy failsons throwing AI at every conceivable problem it can't solve.

do I also detect a hint of "failed to be a engineer/scientist but desperately still wants to appear like one"?

I'm sure Paulie G understands the necessity of regulators in a market which has real world consequences and is just being disingenuous here. If he actually believes the things he said i wouldn't care much, but he clearly knows what he's doing (as evidenced by replies). Fucking scum.

Maybe it's a sort of recency bias but I feel like the old CNN/GAN image generators produced far more visually interesting "art" than the hyper-realistic unnerving shit that today's generative models put out.

Midjourney is profitable, so they fucked up BIG time. Imagine going bankrupt while someone else uses your technology to make money hand over fist.

What's wrong with the weed advice? Seems reasonable enough to me.

The 2 page treatise on inequality which is primarily impotent faffing about from "first principles" definitely hurt me though

just looked the guy up. He's handsome. He literally looks like Jerry Seinfeld (actually, he looks even more like Pablo Schreiber who played Nicky Sobotka in The Wire). What a god damned twat. (Not that being attractive makes any of his arguments any worse than they already are)

100 megameters with no issues? How could Tesla not be #1 in car reliability rankings with that kind of performance? The rankings make it seem pretty average in terms of reliability.

bronze age shawty's substack really tries to emulate meaningful artistic analysis but falls flat on its face because it's obviously working backwards from a conclusion. Fascinating.
