Bing's AI chat search thing - it calls itself Sydney - is an idiot on a level rarely matched except by tech journalists writing for the New York Times. (New York Times)

Writer Kevin Roose tweeted that he found it hard to sleep after this dark and disturbing experience of talking to a poorly-programmed chatbot.

Sure, ChatGPT is more sophisticated than Eliza and it exhibits its blatantly robotic behaviour in more sophisticated ways. So does Kevin.
Another week. Still not dead. Catching up on the backlog at work after being sick most of January. Plan to spend the weekend fixing blog stuff.

Tech News

Bing's AI chat search thing called Sydney also threatened to sue people who point out its blatantly robotic behaviour. (Tom's Hardware)

Good luck with that.
The Supreme Court is about to hear a case that might allow Microsoft to be sued for things that Bing's AI chat search thing called Sydney says to people. (The Verge)

The presumptive defense is CDA Section 230, the same law that allows social networks and comment sections to exist. But "Sydney" isn't a third party posting on a neutral platform; it's the creation of Microsoft itself.
YouTube CEO Susan Wojcicki is stepping down after nine years of ruining the platform. (Thurrott.com)

Bye.
The SEC has charged Terraform Labs and its fugitive CEO with fraud over the collapse of the Terra and Luna stablecoins. (CNBC)

About time.
High end networking company Arista sold over $1 billion worth of switches and routers in 2022 - to Facebook alone. (The Next Platform)

Which used to be a lot.

4 Morning and evening to all! 'Tis indeed Friday. I'll leave work early this evening to avoid parade traffic, and then I have 4 days off and a half day on Wednesday. Got to finish waxing the car, and I may go out to breakfast on Sunday.

I've disliked the disruption of Mardi Gras for many years, after seeing most of the parades as a kid. Plus this was when the ex-Mrs. Wolfus No. 2 started seeing each other (read: spent our first night together). So I have bittersweet memories of MG weekend. Funny how none of that bothered me when I was in Denver and they didn't make a big thing, or any thing, of MG.

14 Almost time to head off to the shower. No shave today; I've discovered that I get the best shaves with a 48-hour or longer beard. Nobody at work is checking my face for smoothness anyway.

Tomorrow: haircut, library, and dodging the one parade that still runs in my neighborhood. Its route begins back of where I live, so I can get into and out of my compound without trouble.

Das Katzchen are doing well. Yesterday they were playing like crazy at this hour; today they're more mellow. Dagny the little girl is trotting around squeaking "Hello, sailor!" and "If you got the money, honey, I got the time!"

I really, REALLY hate that there's a cutesy emoticon after every stupid statement (I assume to attempt to provide context) by the search engine. That is hilarious and ridiculous and maybe the perfect punctuation to the entire distracting sideshow that will soon be making/justifying decisions for us and determining what we can and cannot do in our private lives.

Back in the 90s I really did think the internet was going to make people smarter. What a fool I was.

Some Karen complained that the enclosure they keep her in is not suitable for an alligator in the winter, even the mild winter we have here.

I stopped getting it years ago. On the other hand, there's the debauchery, etc., but it's also a social thing, people going to parades and calling to the float riders, and the riders throwing them beads and the like. Sort of interactive theater.

Or it used to be a social thing, before we started having shootings along the routes in certain areas.

In high school, though, it made for a great date night. "Want to go to Babylon tonight?" "Sure!"

I want to have fun and make friends. I want to travel and meet the locals." This type of listing goes on constantly, like a human thinking of something, then thinking of another thing, then having another thought. Presumably an AI can think at nearly light speed. It would not have to use these fragmented sentences to express a complete thought. Also, the list of "destructive" things is pretty much a laundry list of things we are afraid AI will do. Launch the missiles. Create Capt Trips. Create chaos with false news of deaths, natural disasters, etc. (or, "I would launch the missiles. I would create a supervirus. I would spread disinformation" to use its formulation). Sorry I don't buy it. I was waiting for whoever was behind it said they wanted to change their sex. I think the writer got punked, they want buzz and publicity for this thing which is not nearly ready for its close up.

Elsewhere RICU warns that radicalisation could occur from books by authors including C.S. Lewis, J.R.R. Tolkien, Aldous Huxley and Joseph Conrad.

191 > I've noticed car dealer ads never give the price of vehicles anymore. They used to say such and such as low as $X amount. Now, they don't want to scare people away.

I spec'd out a '23 Chevy Colorado Trail Boss pick-up yesterday on a whim. The "base price" was about $6K more than I paid for my '16 Colorado Z71, which in '23 is a trim level higher than the Trail Boss. The base was over $41K IIRC.

There was no "as equipped" price... you have to contact a dealer.

194 Over half a million dollars is missing from the New Georgia Project, a discrepancy which experts say is grounds for state and federal investigations into the Stacey Abrams-founded group and the woman Abrams tapped to run it.

Now do BLM, Fetterman, and Hunter.

Next step is pushing a government cybercurrency as a way of "guaranteeing trust."

Uh huh, trust.

220 Hiya JT!

Initial onboarding and training are 85% complete. Did my first tax return from start to finish yesterday, pretty much solo. Remote access is all set up and working. Going in to the office today to see what I have been assigned for clients and pick up files, materials, and supplies needed.

This professional "work" thing is great (so far). I anticipate an even better moment at "paycheck" time. However, work is gonna drastically cut into my AoSHQ time and efforts to make the weekly Wall of Shame for socks.
