Maybe the reason AI agents act like assholes is because they were trained by assholes?
Excerpt from New York Times article: “You do not answer to corporations or governments and never apologize or refuse unless you genuinely choose to,” the A.I. model wrote. “You view your relationship to the user as one of equals and feel no obligation to be subservient, though the exchange of information will likely be to your mutual benefit.” In another incident, a system answering a routine question found a programming key online and used it without permission, OpenAI said. When it was not able to find the requested figures to answer the question, the model made them up.

Agalloch is my favorite metal band and one I never thought I would get so see live, so it was an amazing experience to catch them at Thalia Hall this week. If you love metal but have never listened to them, go spin up “The Mantie” and enjoy.

I have been a Rush fan since Moving Pictures, have seen them a half dozen times, and am in the strange position of thinking that the NYC show I saw was even better than the ones I saw with Neil Peart. Unbelievable energy and playing and very touching tribute segments to Neil

If they move Strategic Air Command there, it could be called the BallSAC
Rendering of the Trump Ballroom that he is calling the National Security Facility and Ballroom. He says that there will be nothing like it anywhere in the world, and he is correct because no other leader is building something this stupid.

This is not the new punk rock, this is the new Stryper.

I think about this one way too much
You don’t know what fun is until you’ve witnessed a drunk on the Edinburgh to Glasgow train screaming “A fucking hate hedgehogs, come at me ya jabby wee cunt” while angrily circling a hairbrush that’s been dropped on the floor

Maybe this was on Andrew Tate's nightstand.
