  10. Industry actors have started dropping hints that the industry might seek government assistance.

    These are not the sort of statements one would expect from people confident about their industry’s financial strength. They are, however, exactly what one might expect from people who suspect their industry will need a bailout.

    The #AI #bailout movement thus has begun. We should expect AI bailout pleas to increase in frequency and urgency.

  20. Ok y'all...weirdness ahead.

    Thinkers for as long as we have thunk, have considered that we live in a dream state. Plato, Zhuangzi, Descartes had their caves and butterflies and demons, but philosopher Nick Bostrom updated it to the computer age, suggesting that *waves hands around* all of this is computer simulation.

    Here's where I leave the known, and don my tinfoil propeller beanie.

    You know how LLM companies have devoured all the available ram and compute power they can lay their hands on, right? And they're sucking power down like midsized cities for each data center.

    And the timeline started getting weirder and weirder the more data centers that went online.

    Y'all, I posit that LLM is destroying the universe. It's using all the compute and power that should be fueling the normal functions of the simulation.

    I'm just sayin, what if we turned them all off for a few months, just to see if normal happened?

  26. Televisions began as spinning metal disks in the 1920s. Today they’re thinner than ever and sharper than reality.
    But will television actually change in the next 100 years — or simply adapt, integrate into our walls, and quietly endure?

    "That spring, the wind ceased to speak.

    "It was not an easy tongue. Stand in copses of young trees, sway to match their branches. Wait on sea bluffs, watch the patterns of waves and spray, let the drum of blown sand sting your skin...

    "Windspeakers, even then, do not hear its words. But welcome them from the cold, warm their cold cheeks, wet their chapped lips, and often they speak.

    "And what they speak is always true."
