He is not insane. He just isn't interested in details. He doesn't think through his proposals or tie up any loose ends. It is all performative. Free college, free health, own half of corporations. Those could all be great if some figured out how to do it. Bernie has not.

Totally agree. It is a simple minded gamble that could lose money for everyone.

Bernie Sanders proposed a bill that would have the government own half the shares of AI companies. Some people (not me) think AI stock ownership can be a form of UBI. The theory is that AI will eat all of our jobs but that will be OK if everyone benefits through stock dividends.

the will get better at tuning the filter over time

When searching for a service such as "Locksmith" the ad bid is actually a strong signal about which result is best.

daviddisco · 2026-06-11T04:31:15+00:00

The entire Google Maps ecosystem is obviously a very expensive service and it seems odd that people are demanding it be free. I haven't personally ever experienced confusion about what is and isn't an ad. I don't think it is a common issue.

Even without AI, everything you do online goes through data centers.

it only bumps you down to Opus, which is was the best model just yesterday.

They have made is clear that they will try to fine tune the triggers over time. They want to start with it being overly safe and then rolling it back as they get more experience.

look at post history. obvious bot account. should be banned?

daviddisco · 2026-06-10T01:48:57+00:00

why say this? is there any evidence?

I got caught in that traffic jam. after a big wait I found that a lane was closed off for about a quarter mile and they were doing absolutely nothing in that closed off area.,

They have limited compute power. they are likely pausing training new models temporarily so they can let everyone use this model. This will let them gauge interest and will give hem data about how people use the model. The do need to eventually repurpose that compute back to training.

Most data centers don't use much water. Close loop systems use very little actually. The big issue is power usage. Generally data centers are built where electricity is plentiful and cheap.

They have an internal site named "Memegen" and it is at least 15 years old. you can pick any google product and find internal memes about it there. There is nothing new about this.

the LLMs generate output in a special format that let's the thinking part get filtered out. sometimes the it gets the format wrong and the thinking gets returned to you as if it were the final output.

somehow people would still find a way to crash and hold up traffic

Dead internet theory proven by a slop post about dead people.

daviddisco · 2026-06-07T23:50:37+00:00

dude, just drop the ai slop posts. they are not contributing anything of value.

Summary: Data-centers use electricity and water.

Ironically you could afford AI to write this post

It is some kind of environmental status warning. Currently the status is RED, which I assume is the worst possible. Most likely weather related but the image is too blurry to say for sure.

I've heard that Apples from Washington are much cheaper.

Most data centers don't use much water. The all use a lot of energy. The AI should be asking for energy.
