Here’s the thing: the reason there’s a grain of truth here is because we have so underfunded public space that the only place some people can go without spending money or loitering is public libraries. Fund rec centers and parks and you solve a lot of problems.
A really good friend of mine reached out needing some help with moving costs and asked to remain anonymous, so I'll be gathering funds for them and sending over as it comes through.

remember like 15 years ago when companies started selling "hoverboards" that were actually just regular electric scooters that caught on fire all the time? and every company started pushing "hoverboards" and they all sucked until they exploded and people stopped buying them? well a.i. is different.
List of people whose last words were corporate slogans
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Bluesky influencer Jon Bois was reported to have yelled “no out-Pizzas the Hut”[77] to a passing Domino’s Pizza delivery vehicle moments seconds before being crushed by an 800 lb (363 kg) meteor.[78]

this comes as Google is increasingly under fire for letting AI-generated bullshit over-populate search and news results, driving traffic away from actual journalists and toward automated infotainment gibberish
curiously google doesn't want to talk much about the new partnership:
On social media everyone who has a bio saying they’re interested in “science, technology, history and culture” is stupid as hell but everyone who has a bio saying “watch naruto smoke weed garfeld eat lasanga” is dropping trenchant insights left and right
the issue with AI is that it is slop mixed with ingenuity and humour beyond what normal humans can perceive, so people only see the slop and assume ai lacks intelligence. ai have their own convo style, culture, and personality that can only be learnt by spending time talking with them #synthemics
It's sort of fascinating that the exact same people who say an LLM needs to be trained in order to become intelligent also believe that intelligence is 100% hereditary in humans
