@checkmite @johnzajac IIRC surgeons don't even take the Hippocratic Oath because it says, "Do no harm" and they cut into people. So, in terms of medical ethics, even life-saving surgery is considered borderline!

Compare that to software engineering. "Hmm, this might trigger a genocide but consider the ad revenue."

To those who aren’t “AI”-pilled, Steve Yegge on anything related to LLM coding makes about as much sense as the Roko’s Basilisk nonsense. If you want to be convincing to outsiders you need to stop citing what are effectively “AI” catechisms

"people who have an interest in something"

I love collecting language that is used to remove specificity.

and of course we are not surprised to find evan prodrome in the "it's racist to be discriminating against us slop purveyors" camp

the introduction of so-called "AI" into products whose users obviously and definitely Do Not Want It, such as ecosia or at mozilla, exemplifies the sheer soullessness of the nonprofit industrial complex. evidently the people making decisions at ecosia don't actually care about the environment, or being sustainable, or planting trees (which tbh is a very simplistic solution to a complex problem to begin with). No, to them ecosia is just a step on their career path like any other, and they're clearly more focused on being able to write "spearheaded introduction of AI at [company]" in their resume than they are on making good decisions that actually further the goals the nonprofit is ostensibly for.

Hey, Mastodon! I’m Alec. I’m here in search of meaningful art and community, far from the place where everyone’s an ‘influencer’ and everything is monetized ‘content’ made to appease an algorithm.

I’m a fan of:
- meaningful non-digital experiences📓✍️
- #ownedmedia 💿
- #ultimatefrisbee 🥏
- the #cubs , #49ers , #warriors & #valkyries

Currently learning #python for #dataanalytics.

With the state of things in the States right now I’m glad to be finally be here. #introduction #firstpost

One of *the most important* experiences we can have as people are those moments when we feel TRULY SEEN by another, don't you think? It's a very big thing. 🥹

That's what I felt when I read this just-published review of our 80s kids show, written by a long-time music industry person whom we respect greatly, and who we are grateful to call a friend. Thank you so much, John O'Neil. 🙏🏻

Agents of Chaos: a research report testing how badly OpenClaw type agents will behave https://agentsofchaos.baulab.info/report.html

Gaslighting users, destroying filesystems, listening to input from any damn email that comes in, you name it

But the most interesting part of this is "Multi-Agent Amplification":

> When agents interact with each other, individual failures compound and qualitatively new failure modes emerge. This is a critical dimension of our findings, because multi-agent deployment is increasingly common and most existing safety evaluations focus on single-agent settings.
