It's past due time I start giving 404 Media regular money like I do for ProPublica

Update: Google just sent me a statement saying it is “rolling back” this AI feature that let anyone make completely bullshit satellite images. Comes after our demos of the tool and those from OSINT researchers. One of the worst AI tools I’ve ever seen bsky.app/profile/jose...

On my calendar I have scrawled in all caps "AUGUST WTF" for tomorrow and I can't believe the calendars would betray me like this

My parenting style is handing my kid a book I own that I was thinking of getting as a birthday gift for his friend and saying, "read this and tell me if it's appropriate to give a 12 year old" (my kid, as you may have deduced, is also 12.)

I haven't posted my haunted plants 👻🌱 lately so here's one that broke through the soil June 12, flowered for 4 days on June 28, and now has a leaf so large that it plasters itself on the window overnight to steal as much of the sun from the other pla ts as possible. My hand for scale.

Today I made it through about 5% of the email I missed while I was away on vacation. I may never get ahead of this again.

Received a request to review a paper that includes an AI disclaimer from the author that they used GenAI to "understand" multiple texts in languages they do not speak. I am screaming into my pillow forever.

My partner called me across the house to see the groundhog-in-a-tree chilling outside his window. Treehog?

Paying credit card bills after making a conscious decision to do minimal-to-no conversion math in my head while on vacation in another currency for two weeks 🤢

More Lem, less Asimov

One last post about the state of current phil AI: I don't actually think (unlike some people) that philosophical reflection on sci-fi scenarios is bad. Sci-fi is a rich vein of humanistic reflection on technology! But we should just a bit more Le Guin and a bit less dudebro superintelligence sci-fi

From yesterday and today: it certainly appears ICE in Chicago are wearing the Meta AI Ray-Ban glasses.

Really disappointed not to see @jgcarpenter.com quoted or cited here- sure seemed like she broke at least half this story on here almost 2 weeks ago

Y'all remember how they were going to put an AI teacher robot into a high school serving the Seneca Nation of Indians? OF COURSE it was built by a sexbot company. Gift link.

Now that I'm back from vacation, the Rocket posting will continue even though morale never improves

Genuinely not sure I am ever turning off my vacation autoresponder or responding to all the email I missed while I was away. What's it like to have a job you don't work around the clock
