I read somewhere that this is basically Max Brooks’ take on the film.

Something about breathing a sigh of relief when he read the script, because it was such a distinct story that there was nothing left of his book to be butchered.

OK, you have a point on Godzilla, that machine is pretty fun. I also enjoyed playing John Wick despite my prejudice.

AI doesn’t make things up: It “believes” (doesn’t actually have belief) a real thing just as much as a false thing. The two are indistinguishable to LLMs because the only “true” thing for a chatbot is the existence of text and tokens. Everything else is meaningless to the math.

Does my sewer pipe have imagination because is spewed black goop across my kitchen instead of carrying my waste water away like it normally does? Is my TV hallucinating a new show because the screen got damaged at the factory? Did a printing press create art when it smudged the text on my paperback?

LLMs are tools with a high defect rate which tech billionaires and the media branded as hallucintation to sound more impressive.

Yeah. Stern is one of the few companies making new tables, and the stuff they produce these days is all about making an account and tracking your games with QR codes. They even have a few where there is a kind of meta-game that you play across multiple rounds. Not really my thing.

A friend of mine got a summer job working a pinball joint, so I’ve learned to appreciate the game a lot more recently. Helps to have an inside person giving me free plays.

As long as there’s one machine that’s not Sternslop

I see this article more about reporting unfortunate news rather than boosting fear. The news seems to be “Car manufacturers don’t take security seriously and people are exploiting it with a simple tool”.

I’d rather hear about this now than wake up one day to see that my flipper is illegal because some politician watched a tiktok video.

Me and my 300 clones spider-crawling over the seats to deplane.

There are some sites where Anubis won’t let me through. Like, I just get immediately bounced.

So RIP dwarf fortress forums. I liked you.

Hail to the king oyster, baby!

I assume that “AI” in this context is a thermostat which keeps the fermenting tanks at the right temperature?

Yes! Thanks
