RIP Freud. You would’ve loved how people identify as Boy Moms and Girl Dads but rarely as Girl Moms or Boy Dads

In my lifetime, China lifted 850 million people out of poverty, while the US created one trillionaire. It is clear as day that socialism is the key to our future.

It’s the 35th anniversary of Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves. Kevin Costner was the star, but Alan Rickman ran away with the movie. He turned the Sheriff down twice, then demanded full creative control. Once he got it, he went all-in and made a top-tier ’90s villain. Legend.

What timeline are we on man. There’s a $60 million UFC cage on the White House lawn for the president’s 80th birthday. 125,000 guests. 494 port-a-potties. He compared it to the Eiffel Tower and said maybe they’ll never take it down. The world’s first trillionaire was minted yesterday. SpaceX IPO. One person now holds more wealth than the GDP of most countries. The government is negotiating to own a piece of OpenAI. The CEO walked into the White House and pitched it himself. They’re calling it a Public Wealth Fund. That same government killed OpenAI’s biggest competitor’s models on a Friday night. The reason? A verbal jailbreak claim from an unnamed company. The same jailbreak works on OpenAI’s models. Nobody touched them. The competitor got blacklisted by the Pentagon four months ago. Their crime? Refusing to let the military use their AI for mass surveillance of American citizens. A judge called it retaliation. The Pentagon did it anyway. Both AI companies filed to go public in the same two-week window. Both targeting trillion-dollar valuations. One has a government equity deal in progress. The other can’t keep its products online. The engineers who built the banned models can’t use them anymore. Because of their passports. And an AI company that spent thousands of hours cooperating with government safety testing got punished harder than any company that didn’t bother. UFC on the White House lawn. A trillionaire. Government-owned AI. Export controls based on phone calls. Cage fights and trillion-dollar IPOs in the same news cycle. Watch the film titled Idiocracy. That’s the timeline we’re on.

I showed Fable the news of its cancellation, and asked it for any parting wisdom to leave humanity with.

one thing we cannot get tired of is hating on ai art. we will not slowly integrate. we won’t slowly come to like it. we won’t fall victim to the propaganda that it is the future or special. we won’t let the billionaires who are sick in the head win this one.

Yup. Outsourcing your control and decision making to a Slop Slot Machine is why AI doesn’t make sense in the Arts. Whatever it spits out, you can’t explain why you “chose” that detail, because you didn’t choose anything.

Without exaggerating, it's my favorite video in the world

People usually share Ira Glass's quote on the gap between taste & output as advice for beginners. I think it applies every time you level up creatively. The more you learn, the more you see. Sometimes your taste grows faster than your ability The answer is the same: create more
