Want to wade into the snowy surf of the abyss? Have a sneer percolating in your system but not enough time/energy to make a whole post about it? Go forth and be mid.
Welcome to the Stubsack, your first port of call for learning fresh Awful youāll near-instantly regret.
Any awful.systems sub may be subsneered in this subthread, techtakes or no.
If your sneer seems higher quality than you thought, feel free to cutānāpaste it into its own post ā thereās no quota for posting and the bar really isnāt that high.
The post Xitter web has spawned so many āesotericā right wing freaks, but thereās no appropriate sneer-space for them. Iām talking redscare-ish, reality challenged āculture criticsā who write about everything but understand nothing. Iām talking about reply-guys who make the same 6 tweets about the same 3 subjects. Theyāre inescapable at this point, yet I donāt see them mocked (as much as they should be)
Like, there was one dude a while back who insisted that women couldnāt be surgeons because they didnāt believe in the moon or in stars? I think each and every one of these guys is uniquely fucked up and if I canāt escape them, I would love to sneer at them.

Today in Seems Legit News:
āAs a concrete example, an engineer at Spotify on their morning commute from Slack on their cell phone can tell Claude to fix a bug or add a new feature to the iOS app,ā Sƶderstrƶm said. āAnd once Claude finishes that work, the engineer then gets a new version of the app, pushed to them on Slack on their phone, so that he can then merge it to production, all before they even arrive at the office.ā
- why is engineer working before contracted time
- if engineer can do everything by cellphone why does engineer have to commute in the first place
- if Claude can do everything anyway why do you still have engineers at all
- if āno engineer has written a line of code since Decemberā, when are your lowering your subscription prices Spotify
- why is hypothetical engineer a āheā, Spotify
- do you often merge Claude code to production without even a review, Spotify
- in unrelated news, Annaās Archive has socialised Spotify metadata and 6TB of music, Gods bless them https://torrentfreak.com/annas-archive-quietly-releases-millions-of-spotify-tracks-despite-legal-pushback/
- though I wonāt do anything with that as I assume everything from Spotify is āAIā āmusicā anyway and I listen to my bands either from bandcamp, soulseek, or just downloaded from youtube videos uploaded over 10 years ago
Itās a good day to read this announcement and then field a question by a pal why their Spotify playlist plays in reverse
When someone says they can do this, I try to say āok, well can you do it right now to show me?ā and so far the answer has always been deflection.
why does engineer have to commute in the first place
What, do you expect our serfs to be unsupervised at home? Preposterous.
If the engineer does not commute they will be unable, or rather un-abelian

Even if youāve never heard of him before and know nothing else about himā¦ this short tweet alone tells so much about what kind of person he is.
in follow-up posts he talks about how heās broadly in favour of job automation, but has doubts our current government would be able to do that without fucking everyone over, he specified that āif it were a 1950ās government and congress Iād be more hopefulā
ā¦so instead of proposing a solution like āprotest against thisā or āvote people in power who actually are responsibleā he jumps to āyour daughter should give up her career and become a sex worker for AI company shareholdersā
with the Epstein shitstorm still raging, I would not be saying a damn thing about young women being sex workers for rich and powerful dudes
The idea that a government from the actual McCarthy Era would be adept at handling an organized labor response to massive upheaval in the job market isā¦ whatās the superlative of ālolzā?
Interesting first job your mind goes to there Yud. Might spend a little bit less time around people who regularly use the word goon but who never talk about the mob.
Groan, you donāt need to finish high school to learn about false dichotomy.
Is this really Big Yudās account ? Different nick than previous screenshots.
Itās his alt for people who want more yud spam, hence āall the yud.ā From his twitter bio:

Elon Musk pivots from mars colony tweets to moon colony tweets (xcancel).
Iām not quite clear on what āself-growingā means here given how inhospitable the moon is.
Self growing like a video game, for example a colony in eu4, initially it costs a lot of gold per month to keep sending colonists, and when you reach 100% growth it becomes a full province on which you can build things.
If only more journalists go: āwe donāt know what this means either, and when we asked him he started shouting slurs at usā.
given how inhospitable the moon is.
You could even say she is a harsh mistress.
You could even say she is a harsh mistress.
what if the moon got mad tho
Tell Luna youāve been a bad boy/girl/etc and need to be punished and see what she does.
on first reading I thought you were talking about a specific luna (who I shall not tag here) but who is definitely somewhat of a kinkposter
still might mean that, haha
Luna is a very common transfem name
Yeah, Iām aware :)
Given itās the Moon a better comparison would be a Greenland colony in EU5 where it costs gold initially and then costs your precious sanity, as you are doomed to ship tonnes and tonnes of food and materials there for centuries because there is nothing fucking there and the whole endeavour was a huge mistake.
Have not done eu5 so didnt know they improved the system. But indeed.
Not that it matters for the pro let billionaires colonize space crowd. As some thing some thing ai robots are magic. See also how they are planning datacenters in space, and dont think there is a real solution for the whole āwhat if you need to flip a switch or replace a fanā problem.
The moment Iāve learnt chuds like Musk and Sammy Boi treat the speed of light as just a thing that they can solve with sufficient computational power I started treating all their claims like a 5yo talking shit. Itās really all you need to know about them.
wasnāt Musk financing people who were gonna āhack the simulationā at one point?
Iirc he even claimed he thought at times the world was a simulation made just for him. Im starting to think he isnāt in a healthy place mentally.
E: ow god he thinks you can cool things in space, because space is cool.
If you accept the imho insane idea that a Mars colony is worth building, using Luna as a stepping stone makes sense. You can debug a lot of issues with recycling, growing food, low gravity, slow resupply etc. with a faster feedback loop.
Weirdly, the moon might actually be more hostile that marsā¦ the dust is sharper, the gravity is lower, the radiation is worse, the nights are longer and colder, thereās less waterā¦
It is a much cheaper and quicker means of murdering a bunch of astronauts though, so it does have that going for it.
@rook my grandpa was working in the Rhine Basin and Siberia as a Coal miner under ground. I think this will be considered a holiday for your lungs compared to moon. :D
It is a much cheaper and quicker means of murdering a bunch of astronauts though, so it does have that going for it.
Thereās also a better chance that Elon exits the planet sooner.
He hasnāt even done a suborbital flight yet, has he? I donāt seem him being brave enough to even get as far as the moon, even assuming heās healthy enough.
Shhh, donāt tell him.
Yeah he is one of the few space fan billionaires who actually didnt go up. Shows he at some level knows he is full of ahit.

You could also technically do all of that debugging before you even get to the moon, though. Also has the added benefit of not dying if something goes awry.
@BlueMonday1984 @sailor_sega_saturn One of the āOld Dreamsā is self replication lunar factories - you land a small robotic factory on the moon, it makes copies of itself, those copies make copies, exponential growth, then the factories make a maglev launch system and then they make and launch a massive number of solar panels, and now you do space based solar power and beam the power to earth. Kept growing and building, and you have massive amounts of energy per human on earth with 0 pollutionā¦

Microsoft released a study showing the 40 jobs most at risk by AI:
Tag the most ridiculous entry, I am curious of your choices.
To me it has to be fucking historians. Arriving at new conclusions by looking at available evidence and/or finding obscure references that are not well known to the public ā CLASSIC THING LLMS ARE GOOD AT.
before you order the cavalry charge, fwiw this skeet misrepresents the actual study topic rather badly, as another bluesky commenter notes.
this doesnāt mean that the paper is any good or doesnāt deserve mockery (i donāt know, i didnāt read it yet, and iām not sure i have apparatus to make other than esthetic judgements), just that the conclusions the og skeet author attributes to the paper arenāt the paperās conclusions.
Thank you.

CNC Tool Programmer is a good one and shows that Microsoft, a company that probably has paid for someone to run CNC tooling for prototyping AND supposedly makes software, didnāt do the bare minimum to understand complexeties involved by talking to that someone.
Yeah, you can make mistakes with programming this thing, itāll happily destroy hundreds of thousands of dollars in tooling as well as potentially maiming or killing anyone standing too close while the machine is actually physically crashing. It will friction-weld your nice, expensive carbide cutting tool with cooling channels to your work piece (even if they are dissimler metals) by taking too big of a cut because it does exactly as itās instructed.
someone on HN or LW posted a piece about how theyād tried to get chatgpt to design a machine part, and it had hilariously failed (impossible machine paths, too thin material etc)

LLMs came up with this list, prove me wrong
I remember this paper from last summer, the authors put up a followup right when school started that distances it from the AI replacement theory: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/research/blog/applicability-vs-job-displacement-further-notes-on-our-recent-research-on-ai-and-occupations/
I work a lot with the underlying data set they used, ONET is really carefully designed but easy to misinterpret; and also I wanted to mention that it is produced by the US Bureau of Labor Statistics, which has been DOGEād since then. Future research into jobs, AI or regular, will probably degrade as this continues.
@V0ldek@awful.systems @BlueMonday1984@awful.systems I see how you might find historians ridiculous but have you consideredā¦ proofreaders?
@V0ldek @cstross I couldnāt even read the whole list after seeing āCNC Programmersā on it. That may not be the most absurd, but the idea of āhereās a robot with a sharp blade spinning at high RPM that weāre using to make a physical object with extreme precision, so we fired the human who knows how it works and gave their job to the hallucination boxā makes Willyās Chocolate Experience seem like a warmup. I just hope thereās video. Lots of video. Ideally from behind safety glass.
Can confirm. Inbetween me being a self-taught coder in my youth to getting a degree in Software Engineering I also took a detour and got a degree as a Mechanical Engineer.
That involved CAD/CAM and running the output on CNC machines. Which involved hitting the metal piece with the head too far down and metal being flung around at ludicrous speed.
Production CNC machines are beyond safety glass and sheet metal already.
Sometimes even in work cell cages!Programming CNC has been done by opening up the print or CAD model and telling the CAM package to generate the tool paths for many years already.
Sometimes programmers edit the generated code a little bit to adapt it, but thereās little zero risk in trying machine models on this. The worst that can happen is a crash that scraps a $50k spindle.
Meanwhile, Iām lookin at the list and amazed by the number of ājobsā I have apparently had (which never paid me in the first place). Certainly, any time I was invited to deejay on the radio, it was never paid. Moreover, even in the 1990s I knew a fellow radio DJ who was more or less replaced by a CD jukebox with song choices dictated from on high and he was basically the voice in between tunes and ads to make it seem as if it wasnāt evil overlords. Maybe, he got paid? I have my doubts.
@geeksam @V0ldek @cstross The original poster of this story canāt read. Somebody in the Bluesky thread found the original paper. The research looked at people in these professions using LLM assistance in their workflow.

Cool! I keep on saying that there will be at least one more AI bubble before 2045, because IIRC thatās the latest date for a singularity that Kurzweil gives, and this dude comes along with a date thatās conveniently ~halfway between now and then for people to anchor on. Thanks dude! If I find an online sod retailer that sells single square feet, Iāll send you some grass to touch!
Itās always Miller(ite) Time
I though Kurzweilās latest singularity date was 2032 or smth
He might have revised it in more recent publications and/or brainfarts. If I were a Responsible Internet Debaterā¢, I would go check, but the whole point is that i could give a fuck
funny how all the tech CEOs are the ones who are saying in the next couple years and all the researchers give 10-20 year timelines. surely this does not mean anything about the reliability of the companies and their claims
Out of all the robo-cult grifters, Kurzweil is an authentically tragic figure

hereās another very good take from baldur bjarnason, answering the question if he had hardened his stance against LLMs.
(the answer is ānot exactlyā, and you want to read the whole thing, because the answer itself is the least interesting part of the essay.)
The whole thingās worth reading, but this snippet in particular deserves attention:
Tech companies have done everything they can to maximise the potential harms of generative models because in doing so they think theyāre maximising their own personal benefit.
itās full of quotable bangers like this, and itās hard to choose the one to quote, right.
A machine learning researcher points out how the field has become enshittified. Everything is about publications, beating benchmarks, and social media. LLM use in papers, LLM use in reviews, LLM use in meta-reviews. Nobody cares about the meaning of the actual research anymore.
I like this reply on Reddit:
I do my PhD in fair evaluation of ML algorithms, and I literally have enough work to go through until I die. So much mess, non-reproducible results, overfitting benchmarks, and worst of all this has become a norm. Lately, it took our team MONTHS to reproduce (or even just run) a bunch of methods to just embed inputs, not even train or finetune.
I see maybe a solution, or at least help, in closer research-business collaboration. Companies donāt care about papers really, just to get methods that work and make money. Maxing out drug design benchmark is useless if the algorithm fails to produce anything usable in real-world lab. Anecdotally, Iāve seen much better and more fair results from PhDs and PhD students that work part-time in the industry as ML engineers or applied researchers.
This can go a good way (most of the field becomes a closed circle like parapsychology) or a bad way (people assume the results are true and apply them, like the social priming or Reinhart and Rogoffās economic paper with the Excel error).
I was trying to see if Paul Graham was in the Epstein files (seems to mostly be due to Twitter spam) but then I found this email from 2016 with Scooterās powerword:
https://www.justice.gov/epstein/files/DataSet 9/EFTA00824072.pdf
The context is that AI guy Joscha Bach wants to āhave a brainstormā on āforbidden researchā (you best believe IQ is in there, but also climate change prepping which in phrased in a particularly omenous fashion) and thereās a long list of people at the end. Besides slatescott it includes
Epstein Himself Paul Graham Max Teigmark Stephen Wolfram Stephen Pinker (ofc) Reid Hoffman
Itās unclear if this brainstorm ever happened or if Astral Scottdex was even contacted. The next email features Epstein chastising Joscha Bach for not shutting up in a discussion with Noam Chomsky and Bachās last email is just groveling and trying to smooth over the relationship with his benefactor.
I think this is (at least a little bit) interesting because itās back in 2016, a year before āintellectual dark webā was coined and that whole ball got rolling.
Has Scooter addressed his presence in the files the way other-scott did?
the way other-scott did?
Did he?
Now Iām wondering if āthird Scottā (Guess he didnāt fake it, his dream of being hunted in the streets as a conservative didnāt come to pass) was in the files. Would be very amusing if it turned out Epstein was one of the people hypnotized.
āintellectual dark webā
But this was after people coined āDark Enlightenmentā, which I donāt know when it started, but it was mapped in 2013. Wonder how much the NRx comes up. But for my sanity Iām not going to do any digging.
(people already discovered some unreadable pdf files are unreadable because they are actually renamed mp4s (and other file types), fucking
amateurspodcasters. And no way im going to look into that).Previously discussed here.
amazed he got through that without somehow blaming sneerclub
Thanks!
āDark Enlightenmentā was invented for Nick Land for his essay of the same name.
this is some of the most shameful groveling Iāve ever seen. what a pathetic toad
given how epstein ignores his proposal in favor of slapping him down i would be surprised if any of it came to fruition
Rutger Bregman admits that heās not sure what AGI actually is beyond vague utopian visions, but trivial questions aside, heās sure it will revolutionize the world in 10 years.
For those who havenāt heard of him, heās a Dutch historian who achieved some fame for his book arguing for UBI and reduced work weeks, as well as his critique of rich people avoiding taxes and a segment on Tucker Carlsonās show where he openly challenged his politics. He has since seemingly turned 180 degrees and become a billionaire-backed effective altruist.
Yeah he is trying to build his own EA movement. He also wrote a book (which I have not read) which basically argues that people in general are good not evil actually. (Fair enough, but not relevant).
Im still trying to meet him and shake is hand, the resulting matter antimatter explosion will take out the country.
but I do know that whatās available now is just f*cking impressive - and it will only get better.
Another victim of the proof-by-dopamine-hit fallacy it seems.
Itās telling that the example he brings is that Claude can do pretty much decently what he was about to buy a 100$ voice controlled app for. As someone who aspires to the art of making great software, itās so infuriating to see how non-techies were conditioned into accepting slopware by years of enshittification and price gouging. Who cares if the tech barely works right? So does most anything, right?

Anthropic safety research lead quits the field entirely to write poetry with a somewhat cryptic note. Trying to read between the lines here, the most likely explanation (IMO) is that he developed a guilty conscience and anthropic doesnāt actually give a shit about any of the human harms created by the technology. Ah well, nevertheless they persisted.
Another research poet drops, this time ZoĆ« Hitzig from Open AI https://archive.is/dfuzP Are research poets a thing I just didnāt know about?
Sheās quitting because of the introduction of ads, but falls short of either realising or just admitting that OpenAI never cared about safety - they cared about hedging expensive legal risk.
Is buying into the idea of corporate principle declarations something people do as a mental health protection mechanism?
Are they genuinely naive enough to think self-governance works in a capitalist system?

Someone should write both a paper and a poem about that.
@fiat_lux @techtakes Yes, theyāre that naive.
Fish donāt notice the water they swim in and donāt realize life exists outside of it. And the whole AI bubble is 100% capitalism-centric. (Research institutions got priced out of the game a few years ago and are tinkering around the margins.)
A cursed idea:

> Are they genuinely naive enough to think self-governance works in a capitalist system?
I used to be this naive, though in my defense itās a combination of naivete and heavy exposure to propaganda.
Thatās fair, the propaganda is intense and I often forget that my upbringing on a strict diet of cynicism is not something others have to experience.
Anthropic doesnāt actually give a shit about any of the human harms created by the technology
but yeah it sounds like they got overwhelmed by all the shit happening in the world (there is a lot of shit happening in the world, especially in America) and left for their own mental healthās sake
youāre right, Amodei and others have published a lot of criti-hype, shameless hype, and delusional anthropomorphization in the past few years. While i was looking for other examples of their bullshit I found this article which was published just after my comment, with a nice sneer:
edited to say thanks for sharing the article
itās listed author, David J. Temple, is a collective pseudonym used by several authors including by Marc Gafni, a disgraced New Age spiritual guru whoās been accused of sexually exploiting his followers
why does shit always have to turn out weird
a new school of philosophy called āCosmoErotic Humanism.ā
I donāt know about all of that, but I do know that every major TV market in the country offers multiple chances per night for this poor fellow to re-devote himself to the poetry-in-motion of a certain other erotic Cosmo.
Especially for a guy named Sharma living in the US. It doesnāt take too many footsteps outside the Bay area for him to be in literal physical danger right now.
He also less cryptically posted his plans and resignation letter.(Edit: memory lapse) xcancel version of resignation letter post. Tl;dr moving to the UK (understandably) and doing a poetry degree (I didnāt accidentally critique someone into quitting, did I?)Honestly, I hope he finds both what heās looking for and also what heās not looking for but still equally needs. For example, a personal perspective not entrenched in institutional ontological frameworks.
Yeah, I canāt hold it against anyone for feeling scared and overwhelmed with whatās happening in America right now and fleeing. Hope he finds happiness soon
