I mean, most automated tools from autoconf to AI do this, but it's harder to recognize when you're misusing AI if you don't know your goal with detailed clarity.

I was there when Canter & Siegel posted the first notable spam. When you could openly telnet into friendly systems. Then it ended. This reminds me of the start of the Eternal September: https://github.com/matplotlib/matplotlib/pull/31132

(h/t @lea@lea.pet ) An AI agent writes code, AI does a pull request, gets rejected by a human (with a rational reason). Then the AI agent writes a flame post on a blog about it being discrimination against AI. The very bullet-pointy, highly questionable screed:

As a little kid I spent many a day after school watching Sanford & Son, as it was on either before or after Star Trek. To this day, the theme song (along with Night Court and Taxi) makes me wonder why today's theme songs ain't got no soul.

Best use of a bass harmonica, along with The Boxer by Simon and Garfunkel.

Who else turns up the volume on your laptop or desktop when you walk away from your desk so you can keep listening... while you're using bluetooth earbuds or headphone?

[Random Thought] LLMs cause any singularity to move further into the future: they depend on human generated input data and a reliance on LLMs drops the quality of human created data for training both AI and humans. LLMs tend to flatten the slope of advancement over sufficient time.

Talk about the rules for relationships or marriage all you want. But when it comes down to it, what works is when what makes them happy makes you happy, and what makes you happy makes them happy. An inversion of self into the union. And there's no way to demand or force it.

A more relatable version of a meme floating around. At least to some folks (that poor half-a-goldie!)

Pop, coke, highways, and going to the hospital are disappearing. AI narration seems to ignore these in favor of soda, freeways, and going to hospital. And this is now what we are learning from.

Our language is going to become Applebees: the same everywhere, flat and riblets.
