Okay. I FINISHED THE TRANSLATION. Fifty entire pages of modern Chinese philosophy about Western philosophy. It's nominally about "artificial intelligence" but in typical philosophical fashion, it's actually about, uh, colonialism, Catholicism, Van Gogh's weird fucked-up blood and thinking really hard about one specific random photograph of a street.

If you are curious about what is being taught right now in actual Chinese university classrooms about Western philosophy, you should read it. I highlighted several passages that are of particular interest to a Western reader who wants to understand how China sees itself and sees the West.

I am dying with laughter. lmao. AI Agent bankrupted their operator while trying to scan DN42 https://lantian.pub/en/article/fun/ai-agent-bankrupted-their-operator-scan-dn42lantian.lantian/

While modern AI models have expressed some capabilities in certain fields such as coding, cybersecurity research, language translation, etc, no AI model is capable enough to replace the critical thinking and common sense of an actual human being. 😂

KPMG issued a report citing all the transformational ways GenAI has transformed industry, it’s been widely cited.

One minor problem: it turns they used AI to write the report, and it made up all of the evidence.

KPMG have now withdrawn the report in full.

Right this minute there is a giant Monster Energy Drink banner ad plastered at the White House.

We are in a literal Idiocracy.

I laughed at this. America will never know dignity again.

The White House has shown once and for all time exactly what they are. And that their price is within reach of an energy drink maker budget.

Not just whores but cheap ones too.
