OpenAI wasn’t doing it for this person, they’re going to work on telepathy?

I believe in about:config it’s mostly under browser.ml.

browser.ml.chat.enabled => False, browser.ml.enable => False and extensions.ml.enabled => False I think are the minimum changes?

To what extent should one trust a statement that a program is free of Trojan horses? Perhaps it is more important to trust the people who wrote the software.

Ken Thompson, Reflections on Trusting Trust

I know this outcome was inevitable after software became a mass market thing, but it’s still rather depressing.

Trump likes AI and they like Trump too much to dislike something he likes.

As long as the offer’s open, it will be irresistible. So we need to close the offer. Only another god can kill Moloch. We have one on our side, but he needs our help. We should give it to him.

I’d write something here, but there’s nothing funnier I can say.

Polymarket when faced with the oracle problem: “What if we threaten to shoot the oracle?”

Hank Green has been one of my barometers for the moderate opinion and he’s sounding worryingly like Zitron in his last video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q0TpWitfxPk

The attention black hole around nvidia and AI is so insane, I guess it’s because there’s everyone knows there’s no next thing to jump onto.

if there isn’t, I’m calling it muskware, its conceptually close enough to vaporware.

The truth is that we feel shame to a much greater degree than the other side, which makes it pretty easy to divide us on these annoying trivialities.

My personal hatred of tone policing is greater than my sense of shame, but I imagine that isnt something to expect for most.

The conspiracy theorist who lives in my brain wants to say its intentional to make us more open to blatant cheating as something that’s just a “cost of doing business.” (I swear I saw this phrase a half dozen times in the orange site thread about this)

The earnest part of me tells me no, these guys are just clowns, but I dunno, they can’t all be this dumb right?
