i really can’t bring myself to care about AI anthropomorphism debates. “is AI thinking?” i don’t know. is a calculator calculating? questions for the philosophers. what’s important is that we put sam altman in prison.

New from me: at least 350 unaccompanied children have gone missing from the UK’s asylum system in the last 5 years

The figure represents a 'profound safeguarding failure', say campaigners trib.al/DPdg8W5

I wonder if the pervert glasses are going to actively impact eyewear trends, because I'm looking for a new pair and my priority is making sure they couldn't possibly look like they have a camera hidden in them

Isn’t this the same AI detector that offered its services to hachette and started that whole pile on about that potentially AI-edited book?

The New York Times@nytimes.com

Though Pangram is one of many A.I. detectors that have hit the market in recent years, the product stands out for how it excels at distinguishing chatbot-generated words from human writing, our columnist Brian X. Chen writes. Here’s what you need to know about how it works.

To get the high street that boomers want, you'd basically have to have the local council own/run them and the mere suggestion would produce a media tantrum about Stalinism you would not believe

The moral panic is so focussed on how the internet and social media is damaging children, but no one wants to have the discussion about how it is damaging fully grown adults, parents, grandparents.

The rollout of high speed internet in Uruguay worsended early childhood development. But not because the kids spent too much time in front of screens, because the parents did. cepr.org/voxeu/column...

There could be a world where AI chat bots are a safe space to explore kinks without shame and provide real joy and catharsis for curious people. Obviously we don’t like in that world but I think its the best use case for chatbots I’ve heard

Playboy@playboy.com

For users with taboo desires, AI sexbots can promise freedom from shame—or it might go haywire and kink shame. Are robots ready for our kink? The answer: no.
