Inside the Agent-4 collective, a year passes every week.

Good luck proving this prediction true or false given that computer algorithms do not have a concept of time separate from the real one lol.

Inside my toy orbital gravity simulation, a year passes every ten seconds. Please update your singularity timelines accordingly.

AGENTS.md serves an invaluable purpose in prominently tagging slopware. A mark the promptfondlers can’t wait to bolt on personally!

If its content does nothing, does that mean that ‘poisoned’ contents are also nearly ineffective? Then it can be an even more straightforward slop signal.

This argument hinges on the idea that the most important part of a business is its ‘data’, far more important than anything like its assets or its workers or its long-standing client relationships, which is… dubious.

If you presuppose that all the value of an enterprise is confined entirely to the part that’s computable, then you’ll be shocked to discover that a computer can do all of it. But a computer is not doing all of it, and if a real existing business today cannot replace itself with a computer, why would some vastly overcapitalised slop foundry be able to?

What if the insurance bot were actually biased? Wouldn’t you feel silly then? Surely it wouldn’t be the fault of the insurer using biased software to deny claims.

Pew asked:

Overall, would you say the increased use of artificial intelligence (AI) in daily life makes you feel …

52% of all adults were more concerned than excited — a new high. 37% were more excited than concerned.

What are the stats on disgusted, or weary, or guillotiney?
