Nah, he is just gaslighting overwhelming everyone. Tons of insane and insulting shit to occupy the media and people, so that he can pull all the stunts he he wants. Drowning everything in noise so that no one knows what to focus on anymore.

Don’t get me wrong, he is batshit insane bud there is a certain method to his madness.

Edit: Looks like I was using ‘gaslighting’ incorrectly.

Those claws

I’m not so certain. I doubt that AI would get the motion blur of the chicken pecking the ground right.

Edit: Looks like I was late to the discussion

That’s actually great. Now it can watch what it eats.

Which means that OP used factoid correctly.

Concerning angels there is only one important rule.

DO. NOT. BLINK.

Nah, but when an older, more experienced person empathically tells you that your idea is shit you might abandon it. After all when you try to keep an open mind and consider criticism of your ideas you are vulnerable to this kind of attack. Especially if you are low on self confidence.

“Metallica are a boy band.” was not a take I expected to find today, but I think I know exactly the right people to annoy with this.

That’s mostly an affectation. And as a German myself I have to say that his accent is atrociously german.

The original saying is “If it looks stupid but it works it’s not stupid.” There might even be a kernel of truth in there. But to quote the Maxims: “If it is stupid and it works it is still stupid and you’re lucky.”

Edit: I stand corrected on the first part. I still stand by the Maxims.

I am afraid it just means migratory thrush. And the latin name for thrushes (turdus) was assigned by a Swede. So how it sounds in English is just a happy little accident.

Yellow jackets gather both protein rich and sugary foods. The proteins go to the larva and the sugars sustain the adults population.

I did that for a while. The thing that happened was that I got left out of stuff, because people didn’t always think of informing me separately, when it was already discussed in the already existing groups. Sometimes they would inform me after all the planning was done what the plans were, sometimes I got a last minute info or no info at all. So the choice was between a significant loss in my social life and using the same service as everyone else in my social circles.

Au contraire. Anything that begins with “With all due respect” is delivered with all the respect the recipient is actually due.

While you are correct that there likely is no intention and certainly no self-awareness behind the scheming, the researchers even explicitly list the option that the AI is roleplaying as an evil AI, simply based on its training data, when discussing the limitations of their research, it still seems a bit concerning. The research shows that given a misalignment between the initial prompt and subsequent data modern LLMs can and will ‘scheme’ to ensure their given long-term goal. It is no sapient thing, but a dumb machine with the capability to decive its users, and externalise this as shown in its chain of thought, when there are goal misalignments seems dangerous enough. Not at the current state of the art but potentially in a decade or two.

Just throw them out inside a space suit without any communication devices, if you want them to suffer. Give them some time until oxygen runs out, or they die of thirst, knowing that there will be no help.

just could not imagine the scale at which human civilization would escalate. Apart from that, spot on.

Yeah. I got the theory, but I have almost no practical experience. In total something like 4 weeks of field trips. But nice to see that I still get the basics.

Looks like some kind of intrusion of magma (the pale rock) into the darker rock. you can see how all the veins seem to originate from the pale rock, also the broken-of dark part in the pale rock seems to indicate it, could be part of the original rock, that surrounded the magma, before breaking of.

Some actual geologist might want to give their opinion though. I only had like two years of geology at university before shifting my studies toward crystallography and crystal growth.
