You would think that all of these people pushing for social media bans for kids would be interested in whether or not these bans actually work...but no, I guarantee we will keep on seeing age-gating bills. https://theconversation.com/more-than-80-of-kids-still-using-social-media-despite-ban-new-esafety-report-finds-288808

our favorite version of this meme

it's the American chopper meme with the two guys yelling at each other, except the dialogue says, older guy: I want to acknowledge it's been rough for you  younger guy: I really feel like you're hearing me  older guy: I love that we're talking about this  younger guy (throwing a chair): thank you for validating me  older guy: you're welcome! I love you!

Bases on a hypothetical by Regular Eyepatch Wolf (IDK that's his name...)

You are watching a video and it's really interesting. In it a person talks about about a topic you care about and it has new ideas you didn't know, but also matches up with your background knowledge. They make a few really good points. The video is 2/3s done and you find out "this is AI generated"

Check as many as you want!

Do you watch the rest?

A bag of “6 7” chicken nuggets. They are chicken nuggets shaped like the numbers six and seven, referencing the meme. The package also features art of a wide-eyed blonde kid in a hoodie

I watched a video recently about how to spot gen ai in creative writing and then the same week I was exposed to this opening line of a song and, well, I can't stop thinking about, because it's the perfect example.

"The daylight hits me like a bruise"

Daylight can hit you.
Hits cause bruises.
Therefore daylight must be like a bruise?

Basically, the video said to look for statements that have words that feel like they belong together but don't really unpack properly.

Found it: every LLM breakthrough story reads like this old erowid story of someone who was addicted to taking LSD with nitrous oxide because the feeling that induced for them was that they were discovering the secrets of the universe:

(C/w in the story for self harm and everything else you'd expect in an erowid story)
https://erowid.org/experiences/exp.php?ID=79725

the more I explored the Nitrous reality the more sense it made - of everything. I was starting to feel that I understood the intrinsic nature of the universe ...

I devoted my life to this 'faith' of mine - and my quest was to bring back some of these truths, and to find a way to share them with others - which I did in fact accomplish. I have kind of built an environment that almost guarantees arriving at this place. There is technology involved - it's all very complicated.

If you use @echofeed to crosspost stuff from the omglolverse and noticed things not working quite as expected, that was entirely my fault! I broke the thing I had in place that prevented EchoFeed from being subjected to the same treatment as the teeming masses of bots and scrapers out there, and it didn’t have full access to omg.lol content. It’s fixed now, and everything is flowing as intended. Very, very sorry for the bump there. :prami_sad:

I just made this silly but accurate thing. I'm silly too and i love it, but also i'm serious in my silliness.

An image of four European traffic signals, one of each basic type, all containing the image of a banana. On top it reads "European traffic signals explained" First is square and blue, with a white banana. It says "You could eat a banana" Second is round and blue, with a white banana. It says "You must eat a banana" Third is white round with red border and a black banana. It says "You can't eat a banana" Fourth is a white triangle with red border and a black banana. It says "Caution, a banana!"
