Wars for regime change always work out so well for us

I asked ChatGPT how Sam Altman would have taken care of his baby without the help of ChatGPT:

Sam Altman would’ve taken care of his baby the same way the rest of us did before his chatbot existed—by learning, asking, fumbling, caring, and figuring it out like a goddamn human.

Altman’s quote—“I don’t know how I would’ve done that”—feels less like a reflection on parenthood and more like an unintentional glimpse into the kind of disconnection that can happen when you believe your product is the answer to everything.

Of course, he’s not wrong that AI can be useful. But if your first thought when your newborn won’t sleep is to consult ChatGPT, that says more about your priorities than it does about parenthood.

I’m somewhat in agreement I think. Is it really me talking to ChatGPT about the Holographic Theory in quantum mechanics, and why the Mac version of Brother’s P-Touch software is such trash, that are destroying the environment? Or is it the soulless corporate CEOs laying off thousands of customer service reps in order to replace them with AI bots, that are really consuming all the energy? Not to mention all the lives they have directly and more immediately destroyed with their decisions.

It’s one of those things like hatred of healthcare CEOs, where even maga people can see that they are getting screwed, and that this is not the way things should be.

That’s a worthy debate. They are also good, and each in their own way, and I am very happy to enjoy both.

They’re large enough to handle it

Forgot about this. Empire soda from Bristol, RI is the bomb.

I’m hearing that we clearly need to arm everyone over the age of 11 with personal carry, guided surface-to-air missiles. It’s the only logical conclusion.

Temptations, Ghorman-style, I’m thinking.

I followed this branch of the rabbit hole. Goddamn you for bringing another contradiction into play in my brain!

La Tourangelle Extra Virgin Olive Oil. It’s my favorite.

Pasta made in Italy. (A recent ex-girlfriend converted me)

If you absolutely positively have to have a bottle of soda, then probably go with the Mexican Coke over anything made in America.

Have to disagree on the last point. I greatly prefer Aldi Cheese Curls and Market Basket Cheese Crunches. Except the jalapeño cheddar flavor. Those slap.

Seriously?! I need to go check some ingredients, brb.

Yup. You just summed up the start of the conversation I had with ChatGPT to figure out exactly what we were talking about Here and why the fact that even if we can’t directly send coherent information, if it appears that a change in particle A directly causes a change in particle B, and it appears that that causation happened Instantaneously, we can’t ever prove it or measure it or know it for certain, because the proving measuring and knowing would have to have occurred at instantaneously themselves in order to actually be proof at all. The even more fascinating part I wound up with is discovering the Holographic Principle, as discovered by Beckenstein and later expanded on and proven by Stephen Hawking, that says that all information in the 3-D world is actually encoded into a 2-D framework. That one blew my mind and I’m gonna be thinking about that for a while.

Obviously if we were to exceed light speed we would turn into lizards and mate with each other and have lizard babies. I thought this was common knowledge.

Good. Fuck John Deere.

Huh?

You can join me on my new farm, and we can rebuild society from scratch 🤜🤛

…with blackjack. And hookers.

Not anymore, apparently
