AI World Clocks

The current time as rendered by 9 different AI models. By Brian Moore.

Courtesy of an awesome friend of mine, here's some nice reassurance that no, AI isn't going to actually replace basically anyone or take over the world anytime soon.

Specifically, it's a web page that currently displays nine different world clocks live, according to nine leading AI models.

And they're horribly, horribly wrong.

AI programs currently featured at the link:

GPT-3.5

GPT-4o

GPT-5

Haiku 3.5

Gemini 2.5

Deepseek v3.1

Grok 4

Qwen 2.5

Kimi K2

Only two out of these nine clocks are correct as I'm writing this (interestingly, it's DeepSeek and Kimi - both Chinese models - that are the only ones that are roughly correct), though you can't read for precision time.

Also, six out of the nine are literally not readable clocks (the excepts are those two, plus GPT-5). And in several cases, not clocks at all.

Personally I'm also bookmarking this and keeping it on hand for when I need to show people not to trust AI, because it's hard to reliably use an exploit, especially now that they keep patching the models.

And you know if you say "look how terrible and wrong this always is" and then it's right, you've kinda lost your audience there permanently rip.

Anyway, yeah. Can you believe they want us to let this shit run everything? It can't even tell you the time!!

It’s so anti-colonial and anti-imperialist of Americans and Europeans to forcibly redefine “Zionist”, a term an indigenous minority ethnic group uses to refer to a broad range of ideologies. Obviously us stupid Jews needed Westerners to project their own concepts and feelings of colonialism onto our language! Otherwise we might have been forced to have nuanced discussions about things like “ethicality and praxis of resettling native territories following land back”, which just requires too much intellectual debate for monolithic dummies like us. It’s so much easier to redefine Zionism as to Evil Genocidal Settler Colonialism. Thank you White People for showing us the truth :)

The comparison I like to use is Feminism.

Feminism is a complicated, overarching movement that holds many competing and often mutually exclusive ideologies and movements within it. Several branches of Feminism are highly objectionable, and frequently disavowed by adherents of other forms of Feminism. However, if someone called themselves an Anti-Feminist you'd rightly assume that they were a misogynistic chud, woefully uninformed, or both.

Zionism is a complicated, overarching movement that holds many competing and often mutually exclusive ideologies and movements within it. Several branches of Zionism are highly objectionable, and frequently disavowed by adherents of other forms of Zionism. However, if someone called themselves an Anti-Zionist you'd rightly assume that they were an antisemitic chud, woefully uninformed, or both.

Many people who agree with the first don't seem to understand the second.

in more pleasant news: this year is seeing the biggest humpback migration in Australian history, bigger than it was PRE whaling. That's right, there are more humpbacks migrating off the coast of Australia than there were BEFORE industrial whaling started.

A huge, fat W for environmentalists and Greenies. what an achievement

[lumsel]

we did it! we saved the fucking whales!!!!

[the-tao-of-fandom]

These whales were hunted to 150 individuals. Now there are 50,000 of them

Once hunted almost to extinction, the population of humpback whales currently migrating down Australia's east coast has bounced back and is

Further info for those interested

The only way forward is to stop treating masculinity as synonymous with harmful, monstrous, or dangerous.

[apollosfallen]

There is a fundamental difference between "men are dangerous" (wrong, bioessentialist) and "the patriarchy allows dangerous men to exist unchecked" (true).
