I think we’d all prefer it if chatbots never emitted sentences such as 'You should kill yourself.' However, for all the times that 'honesty' is mentioned in Claude’s constitution, I would argue that it is fundamentally dishonest to have a machine emit many categories of sentences, including any sentences using first-person pronouns."

I saw a deer today...
Does she want to see my deer?

That's more than we ever got from GlaDOS.
wikipedia no longer being anywhere near the top of search results when looking up anything feels eviscerating
#they really said “you can’t use wiki as an academic source-use our garbage AI that’s even less reliable”#and you can’t even opt out of it
no but you can FORCE it away. use ublock origin and copy paste the blacklist i made into the filters to be able to remove the bullshit AI overview that google forces. it also removes youtube's forced ads (at least until they fix it)
you can also use the ublacklist extension and use this blacklist of AI image generation websites to curate your google image results
there are ALWAYS ways around stuff. it's just a matter of looking into it and asking around

I love the notes saying this femme knows exactly what she's doing and it's all part of her flirting technique. You get it.
More of his stuff and about him
My absolute favorite of his work
Lest we forget "The Quilt" (not as funny, but worth a mention)
Why am I hearing 'bout Cotton-Eye Joe? I thought that y'all killed him a long time ago There he's again, now where the fuck did he go Will we ever be rid of Cotton-Eye Joe?
“Ghosts are real” I can see how you could believe that
“Ghosts aren’t real” it’s very fair and rational that you believe that
“Ghosts aren’t real anymore” I’m about to hear a poem or very sad story
“Ghosts aren’t real yet” the fuck are you going to do
Ghosts aren't real yet, in a post cyberpunk sense. Old holos found walking around, but nobody knows how or where they're being transmitted from.
I just googled this and… yes, it’s absolutely real.
And there are so many articles and videos and discussions. Like, the scientific community is buzzing about this.
So much research will have to be redone because the data was absolutely compromised, off by orders of magnitude, by using standard lab gloves.
The world is probably not horrifically contaminated by microplastics. Sterile laboratories, however, are contaminated by latex and nitrile gloves.
Thank God someone bothered to check.
I have a wild idea. what if we supported our claims of fact by linking to a reliable source. better yet, what if we went hogwild and just straight up linked to the actual unpaywalled study
im being so serious when i say this but we need to bring back the "my genitals are none of your business" "if gender is whats in my pants then my gender is some loose change" mentality from the late 2010's because too many people on here are openly flirting with exclusionary people who spout enbyphobic rhetoric. stop caring about what people's agabs are you assholes. they literally mean nothing. they're not a zodiac sign or indicative of people's character. you are not wholly pure or wholly evil because of your assigned sex. you're just a person.
"what genitals do you have?" Is sexual harassment regardless if its from a security guard or a chronically online furry
You're on antidepressants and you're telling me I should get them?
I can be a bitch on my own, thank.

Quick question. When someone asks what age you were in a certain year do you give the age that you were before or after your birthday that year?
Do you give the younger or older of the two ages you were that year?
I give the younger (age before your birthday in a given calendar year)
I give the older (age after your birthday in a given calendar year)
in 2015 we didn’t have AI psychosis so people had to make do by believing a dress was white and gold
Because it was
Is the gold in the room with us right now?
yes. the dress is gold.
...
the dress has always been gold
r u saying this doesn't look white and gold to u???
...
what.
it's a white and gold dress in cool blue dim lighting w/ bright warm light behind it, making an optical illusion. we're not fucking doing this again
oh god fucking damn it
I know tumblr likes to exclusively make it about bloody hospitals but this is what Color Theory is about
HOW DID THIS DISCOURSE COME BACK IN THE YEAR OF OUR LORD 2026!???
when I tell you people were shouting up and down my dorm's hallways about this when it first happened
(the dress was by Roman Originals and it was in fact blue and black. but they made a one-off white and gold one for charity later)
I remember when this happened lol
Some people see the photo as showing a white and gold dress, some people see a black and blue dress. What colors you see has nothing to do with "understanding" how color works in a photo, it's perception that differs.
tags from @mnemonomancy
Yes! It's actually very interesting. The Dress was such a huge phenomenon because people genuinely perceived different colors for no obvious reason
Saying "its just color theory" doesn't completely capture it, as per the wikipedia page, we still don't know exactly why this photo of a dress Does That. The meme actually kicked off quite a bit of scientific research into how the brain creates this grand hallucination we call perception. It's not trivial or stupid at all
do you ever want to gently float up to someone and whisper “this isn’t a debate; i am actually educated on the subject and i’m telling you you’re wrong”
this is the most positive addition that has ever been made on my post

You have no idea the kind of satire I would write if I could trust the general public to practice reading comprehension.
As much as I know Tumblr is famous for reading comprehension, I really do want to stipulate that the ENTIRE internet is remarkably bad at it.
I have written a... somewhat snarky comparison of the drag ban to the bans on Jazz in the 1900's and I desperately want to publish it in a place where both members of my community and the author of the bill will see it but the potential to take it all out of context and make me look like a bootlicker is so fuckin' high.
What's worst is that you can't even add "This is why I am opposed to your bill in a way I hope you can understand" and still have it hit right.
I'm a sucker for a good "you think you're in one horror subgenre but it's actually a different horror subgenre". character struggling to accept that maybe demons are tormenting them suddenly finds out it's actually aliens. trope of all time tbh
