I think he might have adhd.
Oh no, I donāt think weāre ready for him to start mythologizing autism + ADHD.
Watching my therapist pull up Musk facts on his phone for 40 minutes going ābro check this out youāre just like him frfrā the moment he learned I was autistic was enough for me. Please god donāt let musk start talking about hyperfocusing.
I feel like the Internet Archive is a prime target for techfashy groups. Both for the amount of culture you can destroy, and because backed up webpages often make people with an ego the size of the sun look stupid.
Also, I canāt remember but didnāt Yudkowsky or someone else pretty plainly admit to taking a bunch of money during the FTX scandal? I swear he let slip that the funds were mostly dried up. I donāt think it was ever deleted, but thatās the sort of thing you might want to delete and could get really angry about being backed up in the Internet Archive. I think Siskind has edited a couple articles until all the fashy points were rounded off and that could fall in a similar boat. Maybe not him specifically, but thereās content like that that people would rather not be remembered and the Internet Archive falling apart would be good news to them.
Also (again), it scares me a little that their servers are on public tours. Like itād take one crazy person to do serious damage to it. I donāt know but Iām hoping their >100PB of storage is including backups, even if itās not 3-2-1. Iām only mildly paranoid about it lol.
Oh look! Human horrors beyond regrettably within my comprehension

New sensitive breach: āAI girlfriendā site Muah[.]ai had 1.9M email addresses breached last month. Data included AI prompts describing desired images, many sexual in nature and many describing child exploitation. 24% were already in @haveibeenpwned .

Late response but cool song recommendation :)
I donāt know how materials work in Asset Forge, but they have a guide on their site for exporting models to animate with Mixamo: https://kenney.nl/knowledge-base/asset-forge/rigging-a-character-using-mixamo. You could also animate things like moving platforms or doors in-engine with an AnimationPlayer.
Speaking of Asset Forge, Kenny Shape is a similar thing for quickly throwing assets together. It has a really fast 2D workflow for creating 3D models that reminds me of Doom mapping a little bit. For lo-fi levels, you might also like Crocotile 3D or the combo of TrenchBroom + Qodot. Crocotile is great for repurposing 2D pixel art tilesets from itch or OpenGameArt into 3D assets, and Trenchbroom/Qodot is a more fully featured level editor Iāve seen people work crazy fast in.
Itch and Kenney have good ones:

Synty also has a nice placeholder pack for $7. The post-it notes are kind of adorable:

I donāt think most of these are made for Godot, so you may have to mess around with import settings or set up tilesets/materials yourself
If he collects enough metrics, he could make a horrendously cursed blogpost out of it like Aella
I think a dark theme with red accents would make sense.
Oh HELL no thatās the same editor theme Iām using. How do I cast a spell to banish these people
It was some Adobe-style theme I downloaded a long time ago but I guess Iām using the anti-woke theme now
This quote flashbanged me a little
When you describe your symptoms to a doctor, and that doctor needs to form a diagnosis on what disease or ailment that is, thatās a next word prediction task. When choosing appropriate treatment options for said ailment, thatās also a next word prediction task.

Chiming in with my own find!

Iāve seen this person around a lot with crazy takes on AI. They have a couple quotes that might inflict psychic damage:
If I had the skill to pull it off, a Buddhist cultivation book wouldāve thus been the single most rationalist xianxia in existence.
My acquaintance asks for rational-adjacent books suitable for 8-11 years old children that heavily feature training, self-improvement, etc. The acquaintance specifically asks that said hard work is not merely mentioned, but rather is actively shown in the story. The kid herself mostly wants stories āabout magicā and with protagonists of about her age.
They had a long diatribe I donāt have a copy of, but they were gloating about having masterful writing despite not reading any books besides non-fiction and HPMoR, their favorite book of all time.
Thereās also a whole subreddit from hell about this subgenre of fiction: https://www.reddit.com/r/rational/
āhelp artists with tasks such as animating a custom character or using the character as a model for clothing etcā
The ādeepfakeā and ā(uncensored)ā in the repo description have me questioning that ever so slightly
Oh whoops, I should have archived it.
There were about 7 images posted of users roleplaying with bots, all ending with a bot response that cut off halfway with an error message that read āThis content may violate our policies; blablabla; please use the report button if you believe this is a false positive and we will investigate.ā The last one was some kind of parody image making fun of the warning.
Most of them were some kind of romantic roleplay with bad spelling. One was like, āi run my hand down your arm and kiss youā, and the bots response triggered the warning. Another one was like, ā*is slapped in the face* itās okay, I still love youā and the rest of the message generated a warning. There wasnāt enough context for that one, so the person might have been writing it playfully (?), but that subreddit has a lot of blatant sexual violence regardless.
This community pops up on /r/all every so often and each time it scares me.
Sometimes I see kids games (and all games really) have ultra-niche, super-online protests that are like āSTOP Zooshacorp from DESTROYING K-Smog vs. Batboy Onlineā, and when I look closer itās either even more confusing or itās about something people didnāt like in the latest update. This is like that, but with an awful twist where itās about people getting really attached to these AI girlfriend/sex roleplay apps. The spelling and sentences make it seem like itās mostly kids, too.
edit: hereās a terrible example!
Oh no. Kurzgesagt just published a full-on TREACLES piece.

Iām sure!
Itās been 3 days, my hope that this is real is fading :(
Musk will always own that hilariously disturbing baby roleplay Twitter alt though
This is really cool!
I was just thinking it would be cool to have something like RESās āPreviously Readā feature that only shows the new comments, and everything else is darkened or collapsed. This does a similar thing though and itās great for these weekly threads
I love this but I donāt know if I have the same royal Grape Fanta energy in me. I think Iām on one of the alternate themes but I like #333333
Oh god, this is a coincidence:
Kerbal Space Program 2 has been going through some drama as developers are speaking out about what went wrong during the project. This person wrote a long thread arguing against them. Iām not familiar with professional game dev so I canāt really weigh in on if this is a good take or not.
But I have the author tagged as a tankie (no idea if thatās accurate), but someone pointed out they also moderate /r/DefendingAIArt. This guy has been absolutely awful in the past so Iām not that surprised, but still a little surprised with the overlap.
This is hilarious, thank you for digging this up. I love how theyāre just co-opting completely wrong words (wow, why does that sound familiar?) like āantiā and āfundamentalist orthodoxā to describe the people they donāt like
Thereās another one called āArtistHateā, but I was surprised itās actually a pro-artist subreddit.
If you want another fun read, check out Adobeās āStock Contributorsā AI artist forum. I found it by accident, and itās full of people struggling so, so hard to understand why their puppy photos with missing limbs or physically impossible landscapes arenāt accepted. Any time someone āasks for clarificationā on the submission rules I swear you can tell what the issue is at a glance but theyāre stumped over it.
Like, what is this person even trying to do??? Why do people feel the need to regurgitate responses from ChatGPT for no reason. Why are they even submitting AI art to Adobe Stock at all. Are they even getting paid? These are the same people who like those photos of snowboarding babies and have to reply āthank youā to every post on their Facebook feed because they think it was personally sent to them.
Cambridge Analytica even came back from the dead, so thatās still around.
(At least, I think? Iām not really sure what the surviving companies are like or what they were doing without Facebookās API)
