I had to get this idea out of my head. #TheyLive #LLM
A second variation.
@daedalus AAAAAAH I love these! 🤣 so very true...

@daedalus

"Use AI"

Even more so: "Let AI use YOU!"

@Heliograph it was more fun than writing the newsletter. The news is all a bit depressing lately.
@daedalus I hope you used AI to make this.
@daedalus I feel like this is right up @jwz 's alley
@daedalus The only difference with real ads is that they use images. An image is worth one thousand addicting words.
@daedalus Where can one get some of that STAY ASLEEP?
@landelare You mean you've cracked GO TO SLEEP? What sorcery is this?
@daedalus Sometimes, it works out by accident. #replicationcrisis
@daedalus @landelare I think it's more RISE AND GRIND nowadays
@daedalus this is sooooooo good. I may print it out and hang it on my office wall
@_elena Sure. I have no way of stopping you.
@daedalus did you really use AI to create this ai-critic picture?
@FlohEinstein Of course not. I never said I did.
@daedalus 😮‍💨 glad to hear
@daedalus
did common people using computers ask for this pest AI?
No I don't think so.
@daedalus i'm here to kick ass and burn tokens, and i'm all outta tokens
@daedalus where is the original image from
@yugthebug @daedalus John Carpenter's "They Live". Quite legendary B?-movie, sort of the mother of all alien mind control paranoia explotation movies. #theylive

@ax11 @yugthebug @daedalus Ah yes, and with the fight scene between Keith David and Rowdy Roddy Piper.

Also the movie to create the quote "I have come here to chew bubble gum and kick ass. And I'm all out of bubble gum"

@daedalus - I dint blame you 100% I will as well.

@daedalus

OMG surrounded by digital zombies…

@daedalus

A little too close to home, thanks!

@daedalus makes for a pretty nice wallpaper
@daedalus It really feels that way.

@daedalus

"I have got one, that can see" 😎

@daedalus Even got three aliens in there, nice.

@daedalus I work by Times Square and have to pass by it every weekday. Genuinely this is how it feels most of the time lately - most ads are for AI and “agentic” software etc.

I’ve gotten to the point of feeling happy when I see ads for other things and normal non-tech corporate conglomerates 😭

@mariyadelano @daedalus

Same! Even for things that are annoying or repetitive or that I have no need for.

@daedalus

Could I use this on paper flyers that I put up in my neighborhood?
I'm publicizing our boycott -> quitgpt.org
with my Indivisible group, in Wisconsin.

Who should I give the image credit to?

@daedalus The more I hear and read about that movie, the more plausible it becomes.

@daedalus

I have come here to chew bubble gum and kick "AI", and I'm out of bubble gum!😆

Chew Bubble Gum and Kick Ass [HD]

YouTube
@daedalus fav part of Roddy's awakening scene: when he looks at the newspaper booth attendant's hand holding a bunch of money and it's just white paper with printing that says THIS IS YOUR GOD
@jimthewhyguy @daedalus I had a large rubber stamp made of that and printed a few hundred 1 dollar bills with UV ink. Great fun at the Makers Faire.

@daedalus

I feel like the majority of people hate to use AI, and the world is more like MAGA and Trump motos:
BLAME IMMIGRANTS
ATTACK THE WOKE
FAKE NEWS
TARIFFS
IRAN WAR GOOD
WHITE SKIN GOOD
BROWN SKIN BAD
EPSTEIN FILES DO NOT EXIST

@daedalus Am I on linkedin or something?
@daedalus the most disturbing are these two people. Zombies of AI?
@daedalus hey that matches a meme I'd made earlier:
@vex the glasses reveal the aliens tho
@daedalus yes the implication is that DLSS5 reverses the truth-revealing effect of the glasses (alt text includes this).
@daedalus Jesus Christ u cooked with this one Justin

@daedalus

That’s what it feels like when I drive into SF.

The billboards for “agent this, AI that” are so obnoxious that ads for random law firms are a breath of fresh air.

Sweet James, I see you have a million billboards and don’t know why, but you bought me a few seconds of peace from AI.

@daedalus AI is a lot more than LLMs

that being said, I do find LLMs very useful for a de-enshittified search engine

@daedalus it’s so creepy, it’s like ghosts

@daedalus

But was it made with AI?

@daedalus

The extinction cult Epstein people from Silicon Valley love science fiction.

The rest of us can love science fiction too

@daedalus I teach about they live in class, can I use this as well please? I think it would be a nice update
