#Microsoft sent an email to everyone saying they're listening to people now and they will definitely not pushing AI to everything anymore.
Also Microsoft enabled #github to collect all your "inputs, outputs and associated context to train and improve AI models". This new tickbox is enabled by default, even if you explicitly disabled Copilot before.
Actions speak louder than words.
You can disable the option at https://github.com/settings/copilot/features
Instead of defending the use of LLMs for polishing up your writing, we could be advocating for unpolished writing. Blog posts with spelling errors and awkwardly repeated words. Emails that sound a bit less warm and professional because you forgot the preamble of "Apologies for the late reply, hope you're well! Thanks for the thing last week".
If there's no budget for a human editor, why should the text meet a "professional" (middle class, formally educated) standard? Dyslexic people can just write how they write and people can deal with it. Autistic people can just say what they mean to say and not waste energy on the double empathy gap.
We can learn to read for a more inclusive world, instead of wasting the planet's diminishing resources masking our differences.
Asgard went hard man.
They just do. They don’t think. They just go with whatever feels right.
Immortality through gene manipulation? Sounds great let’s do it to our whole frickin species till we can’t even reproduce anymore.
Replicating bug creatures wreaking havoc on our galaxy? Let’s just lure em all to one of our planets and then just trap em there and abandon that shit. Fuck that planet anyway. They escaped? Let’s collapse the star into a black fuckin hole and trap em there. Thats gotta take care of it. Son of a bitch! Fuckers escaped again!
Silly Tauri broke your anti-Goauld machine and taught your pet humans that the Asgard weren’t gods? Not even that mad. Mostly just impressed bro. We’ll fix it.
Tauri got their head caught in an ancient database head grabber and needs a mind wipe? Hard core bro. That shit usually just kills you. Or drives you immediately mad. Some of these Tauri can actually access pieces of that database. Hmmm….
What would happen if we give these Tauri some technology upgrades? Like, can we make them go faster? How far can we push them? Can we give them beaming technology and see what they do with it?
wtf they’re beaming fusion bombs into enemy ships? Why tf did we never think of that? This is amazing. Give them some more upgrades and see what they do with it.
Give them better shields. wtf they spliced that shit with a ZPM and cloaked a full size battleship?!
Give them just fucking everything. We’re fuckin done. Take it all. We’re blowing ourselves the fuck up. Take our technology, go blow yourselves up with it. Just make it glorious bro. We out, peace yo!
The Nox, Tollan, and ascended Ancients all saw less advanced civilizations struggling against the Goa'uld and did nothing.
The Tok'ra saw the Tau'ri reverse engineering Goa'uld tech and condemned them for it.
The Asgard saw the pesky Earthlings building Prometheus based on tech found in Asgard wreckage and said "Not bad, but let's upgrade those shields."
I helped build a government AI system. DOGE fired me, rolled the AI out to the whole agency, and implied the AI can do my job and the jobs of the others they've fired.
It can't. But, what DOGE accidentally revealed about themselves in the process is fascinating. 🧵
So, anyone up for a measles party?

Teal'c: You have been impregnated, without copulation.
Vala: Yes! And I'm absolutely terrified. Have any of you ever heard anything like it?
Mitchell: Well there was one.
(Awkward silence)
Vala: Who?
Teal'c: Darth Vader
Vala: And how did that turn out?
and then anything with Ba'al:
Baal: "You dare mock me?"
Jack: "Come on Ba'al, you should know. Of course I dare mock you."
