It wouldn't be surprising at all if we, the Japanese people, unleashed a storm of criticism against all the dovish, anti-war politicians in the LDP, forced them to resign, and the woman left standing turned out to be a Thatcher.

Sanae Takaichi, who is expected to be elected as Japan's first female prime minister, repeatedly stresses the importance of self-sacrifice.

I just saw a video of a Japanese anime MOD created by a video generation AI called OpenAI's Sora 2, and it clearly seems to be crossing a forbidden line.
No, it's not just crossing a line; Sora 2 copies famous Japanese anime works so perfectly that it's on the verge of destroying the trust in the entire generative AI industry.

It's all over. What LLMs generate is starting to be seen by many as nothing more than digital copies.

News just came in that another elderly man was attacked by a bear today while gathering chestnuts in the mountains. Nature in Japan is harsh.

I want high school girls to live a bright future, one that has nothing to do with us.

I can understand if it's someone like 33 years old.
Recommending dating someone who's 16 or 17 is crazy.

Hello, fedi folks.
I don't want to live on a major social media platform that introduces high school girls to 37-year-old men.
By the way, I'm 38.

@aral @joynewacc Please take care of everyone. 🙏

If everyone on Earth starts mass-consuming cloud LLMs through vibe-coding tools like Cursor or Windsurf, the global environment will quickly turn into a boiling pot, and people will become unable to think for themselves.

@vagina_museum I like reasoning-focused LLMs like DeepSeek R1 because when their model size is small and their knowledge is limited, you can get a glimpse into how they fabricate things out of thin air and the reasoning that leads them to their answers.
People who work with LLMs, myself included, should learn to enjoy the jumbled mess they create.

AI agents are already past the peak of the hype cycle.

Good morning, everyone on the Fediverse.
I was testing GPT-5, and from what I saw when I had it generate the HTML for Tetris, it produced a ton of errors in the WebGL and WebAudio code, and even left in some basic CSS class name mistakes.
Frankly, it's hard to imagine using something this flawed as an AI agent on a regular basis.

An LLM cannot become a PhD student. It's just a baby.

The color of the sea this afternoon looks quite rough.

Fortunately, our disability hiring division has achieved a 40% female ratio—a figure closer to gender equality compared to neurotypical departments.

Our company is relatively proactive in recognizing women with ASD/ADHD.

At our company, the role of operators who fully utilize AI has been entrusted to employees like us who suffer from mental disabilities.

This is because we have the philosophy and goal of using AI to pioneer employment opportunities for people who previously had difficulty performing job duties.

For example, women with developmental disorders who struggle with full-time work, or employees with serious chronic illnesses who cannot come to the office.

The station staff at the nearest station are supporting the swallows that build nests at the station.

Because the foot traffic is heavy, it is not a very relaxing environment for them, but on the other hand, there is also the advantage of being able to protect themselves from outside threats.

The people of Japan live in harmony with swallows.

The essence of summer in Japan's natural world, revealing its quiet splendor.

Today I couldn't harvest much my nose hair.
