sink? I'm pretty sure that's a toilet bowl. Look there's still a big fat tur... ah no wait.... that's Elon

yes, this is more like that little hand wave that tennis players do to acknowledge a lucky point "sorry mate, your job is gone... moving on"

Russia and Ukraine are two countries that have thrown everything they had at each other: from good soldiers, to inmates, to good people who'd probably never held a weapon before.

At this point I imagine that having troops who are alive and actual trained soldiers, not emotionally and physically drained (if not outright mutilated) by years of fighting is a big advantage

If I was taken from my home and suddenly sent to fight for my country, no matter how full of patriotic love I might be, one North Korean child with a knife would be enough to take me out.

I think I'm with him on this one. Replacing all the people on social with AI agents would give us back so much free time! And we could even restart socializing for real.

Go on Zuckerberg, give us a Facebook made only of AI agents creating fake pictures of inexistent gatherings and posting them, so other AIs can recommend them and million of other AIs can comment on them!

You are an unsung hero, Zuckerberg, but one day they'll understand and thank you

on the other hand, when Putin's done killing off most of their own present and future workforce in a senseless war and completely tanking his own economy, that might be the equivalent of like $3

Angling to be considered unfit to stand trial when he loses the election

I assume that guy on the poster is dead, then?

can confirm (source: am on the other side of the ocean and certified idiot). But this is beyond even my level of idiocy. The part on 9/11 is really the icing on this shit cake: he manages to pit two conspiracies against each other:

• hey man, what are you doing with that hurricane? Today we are doing the "flying airplanes into towers" one, remember?
• oh shit sorry, totally forgot that one! No worries, I'm just turning this thing off before it hits the coast

Socials and the Internet in general would be a much better place if people stopped believing and blindly resharing everything they read, AI-generated or not.

Stopped reading at "Trump thinks"

I'm not sure we, as a society, are ready to trust ML models to do things that might affect lives. This is true for self-driving cars and I expect it to be even more true for medicine. In particular, we can't accept ML failures, even when they get to a point where they are statistically less likely than human errors.

I don't know if this is currently true or not, so please don't shoot me for this specific example, but IF we were to have reliable stats that everything else being equal, self-driving cars cause less accidents than humans, a machine error will always be weird and alien and harder for us to justify than a human one.

"He was drinking too much because his partner left him", "she was suffering from a health condition and had an episode while driving"... we have the illusion that we understand humans and (to an extent) that this understanding helps us predict who we can trust not to drive us to our death or not to misdiagnose some STI and have our genitals wither. But machines? Even if they were 20% more reliable than humans, how would we know which ones we can trust?

Most things to do with Green Energy. Don't get me wrong, I think solar panels or wind turbines are great. I just think that most of the reported figures are technically correct but chosen to give a misleadingly positive impression of the gains.
