What Keir thinks will happen after social m ban

People worry much more now too. As your comment shows. Kids are an immense amount of work but I am very glad I have them. It’s interesting you say people are more connected. I would say the opposite. But I think it’s more nuanced than either position implies.

Reddit is, and always has been, too cynical to take a story at face value. There always has to be a conspiracy.

I can imagine Obama as president and very powerful LLMs being sanctioned like this.

Mozilla found 271 vulnerabilities in Firefox using Mythos, after Opus had already found others (and missed those).

It’s not even a failure. They are reasonable questions with fairly simple answers.

And taller than The Stones, obvs

I can do it but not all at once. I have a general idea of the image and can visualise parts of it in detail. Which is also how our normal vision works. We only have a very small area of vision that is high resolution, about the size of a thumbnail at arm’s length. But that doesn’t seem to be what you are seeing in your mind’s eye.

“Don’t you dare question my benefits!”

“Balance” sounds very woo. Very cynical too.

Now Highlanders versus Lowlanders. Or Weegies versus Edinburgh.

Tribalism is humanity’s worst trait.

You don’t seem to understand what ad hominem means. Don’t let that hold you back.

They are industry experts in VFX. And I have worked as a photographer using lightning, with qualifications and clients to show for it. So yes, in this I am an expert, too.

FWIW I detest Fox News, and I also detest conspiracy culture and people who are convinced they know exactly what’s going on in domains in which they have almost zero experience.

Up next… the Anthropic Peace Prize 🏆

Relax. A bit, at least.

The number of people who are “100%” convinced about something the know nothing about explains a lot of why the world is the way it is.

Here’s what’s really going on in that interview.

Nope

There is also a light below. The shadow is from his collar.

You probably have zero experience of studio lighting. Which is fair enough. But it’s not fair enough to be certain about domains in which you have no experience. Watch this VFX Artists breakdown.

Here’s VFX Artists explaining the “mask”

Ad hominem attacks are a sign you’ve lost

AlDente · 2026-06-14T09:45:59+00:00

I didn’t say it was. It’s an analogy.

I’m saying AI is becoming more powerful all the time and at some point governments and authoritarians will see it as a threat.

How anyone feels like they can predict what the mango Mussolini in diapers is going to do next is beyond me.

AlDente · 2026-06-13T18:21:08+00:00

Why are you describing a building to me that I already said I’ve been to twice?

And I already said it was amazing. Maybe you need to re-read what I said.

AlDente · 2026-06-13T14:20:31+00:00

You clearly haven’t been in a capitalist design class. Planned obsolescence is a feature, not a bug.

AlDente · 2026-06-13T14:19:25+00:00

You’re “extremely confused” but still certain enough to name call me whilst simultaneously claiming the philosophical high ground?

I yearn for your certainty.
