Singularitarians desire to build a master AI to run the world. They realize that it's really hard to get right, and switch to arguing against it.

Normies don't desire to build a master, they make an AI that they can just not use when it does something wrong.

I see my own posts and I'm like <what is this gibberish?>

In the runup to the OGL 1.1 debacle, Hasbro had certain other companies sign contracts offering them better rates on the profit sharing clause.

Do we know who?

Because I think it reveals a lot about the plan if the preferred partners are streamers and not RPG designers.

Yuuko and Mai attempt to determine if Nano is a robot. Mio chides them.

Nakamura, the science teacher, attempts to determine if Nano is a robot. She accidentally drugs herself.

Nano begs Hakase to remove her key, and some of her more ridiculous attachments.

Using Scott Alexander's last name is sure a tell.

Maybe not technically a <dogwhistle>, but it really gives away a lot about the moral behavior of the person who uses it.

I think that the most likely outcome of LLMs is to put a bunch of copywriters out of work, but not to actually affect much elsewhere.

A wordcel apocalypse.

@niplav the autist's special interest is real, the schizo's special interest is fictional.

(And not even an entertaining fiction!)

Fine: Accidentally triggering an autist to tell you all about his special interest.

Not Fine: Accidentally triggering a schizo to tell you all about his "special interest."

Wordcel proclaims shape rotators are an existential risk to humanity.

What if, instead of assuming we had to build an AI singleton as fast as possible (with the risk that it turns out to be bad,) we just... didn't?

Someone actually bothered to report me for a reply opposing the removal of Russian composers from the repertoire of the Lithuanian National Opera and Ballet Theatre. News flash: factually, that is not "misinformation", nor is it "propaganda for Russian imperialism".

@vriska If it's this uncommon, just imagine how many states the Ultra Rare Holographic Grackle can be found in

As promised, here’s an update on Searchtodon.

I have shut it down & deleted all data (as of 14:06 CET today).

As implemented, it does not gel *with* the Mastodon community, although the functionality did prove useful to a lot of people.

I’m working on a retrospective that hopefully can inform future experimenters.

Thanks everybody for giving it a try and for all your constructive feedback!
