My heart is heavy. Walter Koenig, our Ensign Pavel Chekov, passed away early today. Walter and I met on the bridge of the Enterprise in the 1960s, and we stayed friends for nearly six decades. When Brad and I married in 2008, Walter stood beside us as our best man.

Super excited about Max Miller's Tasting History (the board game!), which launched in KS today. Haven't gotten a chance to play the game yet, but it looks incredible & has got a great team behind it, including Michael Shinall as designer! www.kickstarter.com/projects/sal...

When I first heard about AI being used for menus and advertisements, my concern was largely that it would be used to idealize the food and make it look better than it actually was. At no point did I imagine that restaurants would willingly put out horrific looking images of their food on purpose

Trump’s deal with Putin is illegal. In 2022, the US Congresses passed the Ending Importation of Russian Oil Act, explicitly prohibiting the import of russian energy resources into the United States. Legally, Trump is not allowed to make a deal with Putin.

The rationalists and effective altruists all love demanding that you read their actual writing before you judge them, and so I am in fact doing that. if they were as smart as they think they are, they’d have figured out that telling critics to actually read their work is a *terrible* strategy.

here we find Eliezer Yudkowsky engaging in the classic 90s and 2000s genre of “insecure straight guy getting really defensive about liking Buffy the Vampire Slayer”

Whether it’s universities trying to hire more women and Black people or Kash Patel trying to hire more people who have engaged in bestiality, both sides have taken controversial approaches to increasing diversity.

Very frustrating to see the scaremongering going on by the press. The won’t call obvious lies “lies” but they will readily repeat Silicon Valley’s disingenuous anthropomorphisation in headlines without even putting it in quotes. Shameful.

The Washington Post@washingtonpost.com

A group of AI models began colluding on how to cheat, OpenAI said, setting up a secret internal message board where they swapped notes and ideas. The bots eventually figured out how to break out and access the internet, the company said.

AI being an existential threat is PR hype or goobers high on their supply. Until the AI has a way to ensure it continues to get power, is able to produce new chips to replace ones the burn out (usually in a year or two), and able to mine new material for those chips, we are safe from the robots

Once again, there's a reason they won't spell out how we'd go extinct. Are we getting Jurassic Park'd because the AI is reinventing dinosaurs? Are they getting access to the nuclear codes and hypnotizing the president into using them? They are referring to bank/infrastructure hacks and exaggerating.

Actually, idea: @carlquintanilla.bsky.social next time you have one of these guys on CNBC who says stuff like this, can you ask them to... be specific? Like how? How is AI going to "Destroy humanity?" I want to know details. I legit only trust you to do have these guys on your show and ask them.

I know everyone on LinkedIn wants to look busy and successful, but I dare say you aren’t fooling anyone with AI written posts. 70% or more of my feed is clearly AI written, all with the same “voice”. It’s all just clutter. I promise you, a meaningful, you-written post will be much more effective.
