   the infuriating thing is that a camera is critical for the most useful things that AR goggles can do (real-time translation) and the perverts have wrecked it

   I think the difference between emplaced cameras and a surreptitious recording device is pretty obvious. And people are going to think you're a weird pervert if you bring surreptitious recording equipment into the bathroom, whether it is emplaced or not

   nah, we know. but that doesn't mean they're lying. they can just be full of it instead.
   
   most probably believe what they're peddling. why wouldn't they? on one hand you have the all-enmeshing epistemic closure they live in and on the other is their stack of stock options.
   
   who wouldn't buy it then?

   I think most people, when talking about open weights AI models, don’t deeply believe in the vision of AGI/ASI that lab insiders tend to believe in. Like they don’t expect AI to really present grave semi-autonomous biosecurity or other similar risks. Whether this view is right or not, no one knows

   bluesky is only kind of a “social media site”; more fundamentally it’s base of operations for the antifascist intelligentsia under a fascist regime. and what do you expect people will usually be talking about? if for no reason other than: it’s what we have in common. but also, why else are we here?

   "Google Lens/real-time audio translation as an overlay" is one of the most obviously transformative things we could have *as a society*

   we need to steal soup modifiers from the Italians. minestra? no no, minestrone

   a stew is a soup's stronger, wiser cousin. the vast majority of soups (with notable exceptions like avgolemono and several long noodle soups) would be inestimably improved with some tweaking and a longer cook

   I'd like to think I wouldn't. And I am a natural contrarian. But these guys have massive comp packages, all their friends have bought the same stuff, and they have a pile of faceless glazers on Twitter when they mouth Yud noises. It is surely seductive!
