Oh god this is so believable. AI bros and Business Leaders have no interest in softer sciences, so they've Dunning-Krugered themselves into believing their googly-eyed autocomplete is a real boy

  The LLMentalist Effect: how chat-based Large Language Models rep…
  
  The new era of tech seems to be built on superstitious behaviour
2. Screenshot from a blog post: Is this intentional? Given that there are billions of dollars at stake in the tech industry, it would be tempting to assume that the statistical illusion of intelligence was intentionally created by people in the tech industry. I personally think that’s extraordinarily unlikely. A popular response to various government conspiracy theories is that government institutions just aren’t that good at keeping secrets. Well, the tech industry just isn’t that good at software. This illusion is, honestly, too clever to have been created intentionally by those making it. The field of AI research has a reputation for disregarding the value of other fields, so I’m certain that this reimplementation of a psychic’s con is entirely accidental. It’s likely that, being unaware of much of the research in psychology on cognitive biases or how a psychic’s con works, they stumbled into a mechanism and made chatbots that fooled many of the chatbot makers themselves. Remember what I wrote above about psychics frequently having conned themselves, that many of them aren’t even aware of their own scam? The same applies here. I think this is an industry that didn’t understand what it was doing and, now, doesn’t understand what it did. That’s why so many people in tech are completely and utterly convinced that they have created the first spark of true Artificial General Intelligence.

"Neither Elon Musk Nor Anybody Else Will Ever Colonize Mars"
It's great to see someone FINALLY mention the magnetosphere issue, in the very first sentence no less, but this article rips into the idea so much more thoroughly than that, and with admirable gusto.

  Neither Elon Musk Nor Anybody Else Will Ever Colonize Mars | Defector
  
  Mars does not have a magnetosphere. Any discussion of humans ever settling the red planet can stop right there, but of course it never does. Do you have a low-cost plan for, uh, creating a gigantic active dynamo at Mars’s dead core? No? Well. It’s fine. I’m sure you have some other workable, sustainable plan […]

  Andrew Tate swimsuit pic starts trans panic among conspiratorial right
  
  from @mikaelthalen
  
  A not-so-revealing picture of Tate in men's swimwear has some on the far-right saying he's a woman.

#Rust is woke now

1. Tweet from @PerpetualManiac "For people looking for a conspiracy, the replacement language for C++, Rust, is compromised by a cabal of woke tards that are doing strange things. It's possible this could be a plot to move mission-critical code to Rust. It's the only other language Linux is allowing, other than C. But who knows"

Doing A Thing and I'm wondering what queer sex-positive spaces I know on mastodon (other than woof.group).
1 - any advice gratefully received, but mainly
2 - OMG I love the federated system. It was so befuddling at first and now here I am thinking of all the different hamlets on #Mastodon, from the giant cities like .social, the communities like kinky.business, the little commune I currently live in. For all the mess and the drama, it's adorable, it's human scale. I love it. I love you, Mastoo

1. Garish pink and yellow image featuring Mr Bobby, a kind of clownish, camp British fever dream from 1990s Saturday Night television. Advice from Mr Blobby - Maybe your party could be less shit? Vote shaming doesn't work It just makes us hate you And your party Politicians aren't owed our votes THEY EARN THEM also, if you look - "Blobby knows where you live"

1. The "distracted boyfriend" meme, except it's a distracted girlfriend, and she's eyeing up a bear

1. Bluesky post from Dr Nerdlove "I know you’re being sardonic but there was an old game for the Apple II called “Car Builder” and the “ideal” chassis design that would get highest marks in the wind tunnel test looked almost EXACTLY like the Cybertruck" Attached are two images: one is a profile of the Cybertruck, the other is an old (like, OLD, I was a mere child when these graphics were current) screengrab of an ancient computer program, showing a wireframe model of a car in profile. It looks exactly like the Cybertruck.
