left behind

Ah great. So if I don’t get the glasses, I don’t get raptured and am left behind. If I do get the glasses, I get raptured, everything I’m wearing is left behind, specifically the glasses. So this is a no-win scenario.

AR could be great. Though if google glass became widespread, and because google doesn’t know how to do anything else, it would 100% be used for ad space

Recently, I’ve been seeing a lot of adverts from Google about their AI services. What really tickles me is how defeatist the campaign seems. Every ad is basically like “AI can’t do X, but it can do Y!”, where X is a job or other task that AI bros are certain that AI will eventually replace, and Y is a smaller, related thing that AI gets wrong anyway. For an ad agency, I’d expect more than this.

With Google Glass you can Ogle Ass… is this anything?

I bet it’s Industry Americus, who is far too enterprising for one of such young age

This is sort of OT, but since we discuss race science and dogwhistles so much:

A jeans manufacturer has put out an ad featuring Sydney Sweeney and is saying “Sydney Sweeney has great jeans”. People are interpreting this as a racist dogwhistle (it is). Comedian Akilah Hughes cooked up this glorious parody to kick off a twitter thread:

I don’t know how to parse this and choose not to learn

Dunno if this term has ever come across their desk before, boss

LBTM

I cannot speak from experience, but I imagine having, raising, and face-slapping 4 (soon 5) kids is going to have some kind of toll on your general well-being.

Edit: also shit troll. Oh, you wear cosplay for media appearances? How anti-left. How will I ever recover

It’s not eugenics, it’s just selecting for Good Genes!!! Such as skull bigger

That couple update: That couple are being platformed again, this time on the Australian Broadcasting Corporation.

Exactly, plus there’s no shortage of bad shit Meta has done to the youth, this is a stupid reach.

that’s what happens if your computer is a von Meowmann architecture machine

tangential: reminds me of this stupid thing that I saw like 10 years ago that I have recreated for y’alls viewing pleasure. Feel free to insert whatever narrative you like as to how I encountered the image on the left.

Another Oglaf reference???

this is great, but now I’m sad

somewhere out there, there’s a writer who really likes the em dash, the word “delve,” and answering questions with a one-word hyper-chipper affirmative, followed by three sentences of people pleasing. He can’t get a job because he keeps being accused of using AI

Didn’t know it was something readable! I just know it as an episode of Love Death + Robots. It was a standout episode in an otherwise pretty boring first two seasons.

kinda related but wouldn’t it be fun to believe that LLMs were invented by Big Em Dash as a conspiracy
