It turns out this whole time that the Turing Test was the wrong way to think of it. Thinking a chatbot is alive is not a test of how good the chatbot is, but of your own ability to think of other human beings as real and complete people

I'm excited for a time when people will say "I knew you were a Drake fan" and everyone will just understand that it's an insult

I've given this some thought, and I think I would not start a rap beef with Kendrick Lamar

I just listened to an episode of Better Offline where Ed Zitron discusses Wikipedia with Molly White (18-year Editor). Usually these are scammy and don't accomplish the task of getting you a Wikipedia page at all. Give us money, we'll do a thing, it'll probably not be accepted, they keep money

Just finished listening and really enjoyed it. Shared it with the important people in my life. Thank you for making this episode. I'm going to add a bunch of others to my queue and put new episodes in regular rotation

Science fiction has some amazing stories about the danger of fascism — so why haven't we listened? Why did Hitler become a funny meme on YouTube instead of a cautionary tale? And why are so many people so keen to censor books that challenge their worldview? Please listen to this one.

I've said this several times but it is worth repeating: You don't ask an LLM something, you are giving it a prompt. You don't get back an answer, you get plausible sounding text. Using the incorrect words for what they do allows the people peddling the technology to get away with ridiculous claims.

Who convinced you that you need this thing to be happy? Was it the algorithm? You can tell me. Is the algorithm in the room with us right now?

When I needed to recover my account, the link they sent took me to a Twitter page with Twitter branding. That was really strange. It's like Musk painted over the old stuff, but did the kind of job we've come to expect of him

I avoided COVID until I caught it from my dad a few days ago. He thought his allergies were acting up. I tested immediately when I started feeling a bit off and here we are. So I'd like to add, please test diligently, even if you're having mild symptoms. Protect one another

Big Boring Theories sounds like a Talking Heads album. It's that Overton Window. My Big Boring Theory is that Musk bought Twitter to shift it and normalize terrible things and that's his legacy/villain story
