Zitron's sample size may be limited to his Twitter following, but its a bad sign for AI if bashing it gets you praise from both sides of the political aisle:

Bonus Tweet from Chris Alvino:

I was just thinking about this today. I had a thread go viral where I bashed AI, resulted in thousands of new followers, and I've had to block a bunch bc they turned out to be on the far right. Honestly amazing how bipartisan AI hate is. Never seen anything like it before 😂

Google Pulls “Dear Sydney” Olympics Ad After Backlash To Its Portrait Of A Young Girl Using AI

The ad itself is just fucked - its like something you'd find in a shitty cyberpunk novel.

c'mon bubble

@ai_shame RT'd a good sneer in the wild recently:

Bonus: Eliezer, of all people, also sneered at the TESCREAL twat:

At its low point, some computer scientists and software engineers avoided the term artificial intelligence for fear of being viewed as wild-eyed dreamers. (New York Times, 2005, at the end of the last AI winter.)

I expect history to repeat itself quite soon - where previously using the term "artificial intelligence" got you looked at as a wild-eyed dreamer, now, using that term's likely getting you looked at as an asshole techbro, and your research deemed a willing attempt to hurt others.

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

On the one hand, Bitcoin as an emoji would be basically useless.

On the other hand, it could work as an easy shorthand for "scam"

(and jeez, I know naming stuff is hard, but “Ploopy” is kinda bad as a company name).

Naming themselves after something which implies immortality would've been my pick - something like "Theseus", to suggest a Ship-of-Theseus kind of immortality, I dunno.

I like how the advertisement's URL opens with a fucking O_Q like even its unsettled by this shit

(This one took two days to cook as opposed to just one - hope it turns out solid.)
