ooh rumbled

time to switch accounts

thanks for the heads up!

it won't be the world's bank for very long

even if you've got an outstanding project, now everyone has to wade through no much noise it'll never be found

the high end probably pay the same sort of tax as professional footballers

kettle, pot, black?

I received the following offical spam last week from GitHub:

> Build AI agents with the new GitHub Copilot SDK

despite never granting consent for marketing material

(and yes, there's a GDPR complaint now working its way through the national regulator)

it more or less guarantees the other side will retaliate with nuclear weapons

at which point the likelihood of escalation to strategic nuclear strikes goes through the roof

and if that happens our current civilisation is finished

previously no-one had spent trillions of dollars trying to convince the world that those computers were "Artificial Intelligence"

it's a common pattern in GPs comments

pretty certain he just asks the "AI" for citations on whatever he's written

(for a VC he sure has a lot of time to waste shit-posting on the internet)

I'd say the perception is probably worse

kim is simply not a threat

he also hasn't threatened to invade us, and he's not kidnapped any foreign leaders (recently)

it's a critical industry, so can be regulated to prevent foreign interference

airlines aren't granted freedom of the air unless they're domestically owned

and exactly the same approach can be applied to tech companies

yet

the US was really, really foolish to crystalise the risk by locking out those judges

prior to that it was just a theoretical people were yelling about

now it's real, and there's a continent of hungry businesses lobbying for resources to be diverted domestically, instead of being sent to the US

and that's the EU's bread and butter

if it's not over in a year or so I'm finding an alternative career, or retiring early

every piece of software seems to have gained useless AI features

my employer is rabbiting on about it constantly

if I go out socially people bring out their phones and ask ChatGPT everything

it's just horrible and I hate it

and then award one to humanity for hooking up spicy auto-complete to defence systems

and the idiots are racing to that situation as fast as they possibly can
