If buying isn't owning, then pirating isn't theft.

Recursive self-improving AI isn't happening like they expected. AGI is nowhere in sight.

The pace of advancement is slowing down and they need a cover story for why they're not living up to their own hype.

Y'all just cannot fathom how completely most people do not care until it directly impacts them personally.

This is likely less about Ukraine and more about November.

That's edema.

It's the same thing that's been causing swelling around his feet and ankles.

It's a sign of heart failure. It means the Big Beautiful Obituary isn't far off.

It's pretty insignificant

Citation needed. You're just straight-up lying or clueless as to what's actually going on.

That's an "I have no idea what I'm talking about" if I ever heard one.

"Citation needed" IS polite. You claim it's not polluting, so clearly you know the CO2 emissions numbers from SpaceX's datacenters that are being run off direct-connect to natural gas generators. So, how about it? How "not polluting" are they?

I'm aware of what the pace is. You might want to check up on the current controversy surrounding OpenAI's math "achievements".

By my reckoning, the difference between Mythos and Opus is smaller than the difference between Opus and Sonnet. Same with the difference between GPT 5.5 to 5.6 is smaller than the difference between GPT 4 to GPT 5.

The size of improvements over time is diminishing. We're not in "big bang" territory anymore and we're about two years into the "incremental refinement" period. We're about to enter the next AI Winter unless somebody comes up with a new architectural component as revolutionary as transformers have been for ML models.

The core problem is that LLMs do not create. Full stop. All creativity is borne by the human inputs. Until that changes - until the model gains the capability to truly create new information, we've hit the limits in raw capability.

It doesn't. This is the system working as designed.

The best way to live a rage-free life is to never, ever learn how the financial system really works.

Bias plus volume. Memes used to be hand-crafted. That takes time.

Now, there's a dozen websites to auto-generate them by the thousands. Plus AI.

He has dementia. They've known he's got dementia since his first term.

Every day that passes without the 25th Amendment being invoked, Article 2 Section IV of the US Constitution being invoked, or articles of impeachment being filed is a day that every sitting member of Congress announces their complicity in subverting American Democracy.

Every day that passes without the American public taking to the streets in protest is a day that every American citizen announces their complicity in allowing their nation to no longer follow the rule of law.

Proof that all it takes to sound like a conspiracy theorist is to know the names of four real, actual things the CIA has done.

I don’t think it’s going to add up to a trillion dollars a year though, lol.

It will. The real question is - what will be the price of a loaf of bread in the multi-trillion dollar economy?

If only lies had consequences.

They do. It's called "voting with your wallet". Don't like this decision? Don't buy the game.

You should try asking yourself how artists create art. Where did that art come from that you so badly want to disconnect from the artist's mind that produced it? What ideas is the artist expressing that you're choosing to ignore?

What ideas did the artist also hold that are the reason the rest of human society decided that this artists art did not need to persist?

For example - These are questions that anyone involved in anything "Lovecraftian" needs to answer for themselves.

You don’t know my life, my hardships etc. don’t pretend you do.

You thinking that's what I'm doing is why I'm saying what I'm saying.

You haven't yet matured to the point where you understand not everything everyone else says and does is about you. Other people live rich, detailed lives that are completely unlike your own and you will never understand the huge varieties of ways the world works until you get outside your own tiny, self-centered universe.
