AI of the moment

2025-08-04 23:02:43.525702+02 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

Colin Cornaby: In the Future All Food Will Be Cooked in a Microwave, and if You Can’t Deal With That Then You Need to Get Out of the Kitchen

And some deep self-delusion: Yascha Mounk: The Peculiar Persistence of the AI Denialists, in which the author, along with making a lot of dubious claims, wraps up by claiming Malthus was wrong. Which, ya know... tells ya where they're coming from.

Marcus Hutchins: Every Reason Why I Hate AI and You Should Too

Also, because as the LLM hype wraps down and we see the humanoid robot stuff ramp up, Pivot To AI: Figure AI’s BotQ humanoid robot is an investor demo, not a product has a good rundown on that product, and observes that human-shaped robots are there to sell investors, not to be practical or useful.

We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
