"But AI can't do your job. It can help you do your job, but that doesn't mean it's going to save anyone money. Take radiology: there's some evidence that AIs can sometimes identify solid-mass tumors that some radiologists miss, and look, I've got cancer. Thankfully, it's very treatable, but I've got an interest in radiology being as reliable and accurate as possible. If my Kaiser hospital bought some AI radiology tools and told its radiologists: "Hey folks, here's the deal. Today, you're processing about 100 x-rays per day. From now on, we're going to get an instantaneous second opinion from the AI, and if the AI thinks you've missed a tumor, we want you to go back and have another look, even if that means you're only processing 98 x-rays per day. That's fine, we just care about finding all those tumors." If that's what they said, I'd be delighted. But no one is investing hundreds of billions in AI companies because they think AI will make radiology more expensive, not even if that also makes radiology more accurate. The market's bet on AI is that an AI salesman will visit the CEO of Kaiser and make this pitch: "Look, you fire 9/10s of your radiologists, saving $20m/year, you give us $10m/year, and you net $10m/year, and the remaining radiologists' job will be to oversee the diagnoses the AI makes at superhuman speed, and somehow remain vigilant as they do so, despite the fact that the AI is usually right, except when it's catastrophically wrong. "And if the AI misses a tumor, this will be the human radiologist's fault, because they are the 'human in the loop.' It's their signature on the diagnosis." This is a reverse centaur, and it's a specific kind of reverse-centaur: it's what Dan Davies calls an "accountability sink." The radiologist's job isn't really to oversee the AI's work, it's to take the blame for the AI's mistakes. This is another key to understanding – and thus deflating – the AI bubble. The AI can't do your job, but an AI salesman can convince your boss to fire you and replace you with an AI that can't do your job. This is key because it helps us build the kinds of coalitions that will be successful in the fight against the AI bubble." - Cory Doctorow, The Reverse Centaur’s Guide to Criticizing AI

GLEE REWATCH KURT HUMMEL and BURT HUMMEL in S02E15: Sexy

[sophsun1]

The Birdcage (1996) dir. Mike Nichols

[posiesinapocket]

spiderman brand new day and the importance of care. mj not loving peter due to not knowing him, but still caring about him enough to invite him up, to draw him, to send frank to watch him, to give him advice and be concerned. ned not remembering what spiderman means to him, but trying to find him anyway to thank him. frank worrying about this kid who is determined to save everybody he possibly could. peter caring about jean grey, taking a bullet for her despite almost all his interactions with her being antagonistic, because she exists, and she deserves so much better. jean crying over peter getting shot, because he was kind and promised to be there for her and made good on that promise immediately, even though she ended up there because of him. new york and their care for spidey.

peter parker and his care for everybody- his family, his friends, people he has never met, people who have continually tried to hurt him.

spiderman: brand new day and the importance of care of any kind.

you're as smooth as tennessee whiskey | rodeo prince! blaine anderson x stable boy! kurt hummel

stable boy! kurt hummel, who despises rodeo cowboys after years of watching them ride into town acting like they own the place, treating the stable staff like they're invisible and caring more about winning than anything

rodeo prince! blaine anderson, who arrives in town as the favorite to win the rodeo and immediately notices the pretty stable boy in far too good clothes to be a stable boy and who also refuses to spare him a second glance.

stable boy! kurt hummel, who notices blaine too but is already convinced he's just another arrogant cowboy passing through.

rodeo prince! blaine anderson, who has absolutely no shame about finding excuses to talk to kurt, only to be met with one word answers and an unimpressed stare

stable boy! kurt hummel, who internally panics every time blaine smiles at him but refuses to let it show.

rodeo prince! blaine anderson, who keeps coming back to the stables with increasingly ridiculous excuses , his saddle needs checking, his horse "looks sad," he forgot his gloves , etc

stable boy! kurt hummel, who rolls his eyes every time blaine shows up but always ends up helping him anyway.

rodeo prince! blaine anderson, who quickly realizes kurt treats each horse with more care than most people treat their friends.

stable boy! kurt hummel, who can't ignore that blaine is surprisingly respectful toward everyone and, most importantly, his horse.

rodeo prince! blaine anderson, who never leaves the stables without thanking and flirting a little with kurt, no matter how cold the conversation was.

stable boy! kurt hummel, who starts questioning everything he thought about rodeo cowboys after watching blaine treat his horse with a level of care and patience he rarely sees

rodeo prince! blaine anderson, who's always the first to lend a hand to whoever needs it like when he helped sheriff! finn hudson chase down farmer's daughter! rachel berry's runaway hens.

stable boy! kurt hummel, who can't help but notice that blaine never expects anything in return , making it increasingly difficult to keep calling him just another arrogant cowboy.

rodeo prince! blaine anderson, who after alot of teasing by his friends works up the courage to ask kurt if he'd like to have dinner with him fully expecting a sarcastic excuse and a polite rejection.

stable boy! kurt hummel, who surprises even himself by saying yes, insisting it's only because blaine has "managed to be tolerable lately" and that it's a one time exception.

rodeo prince! blaine anderson, who spends the rest of the day trying , and failing, to hide the enormous grin on his face.

stable boy! kurt hummel, who acts as though accepting blaine's invitation wasn't a big deal, but still spends far too long deciding what to wear before meeting him
