I don’t know what’s more upsetting, watching antisemitism increase or watching normal people stay silent.

BlueChip. Built in America.
America made the first electronic computer to win a war.
Now we depend on our greatest adversaries to build the computers that run our economy and defend our nation.
Today, we bring it home.
Wowwwww

Houdini’s in-laws thought he worshipped the devil
Sacha Baron Cohen says Marvel worried about casting a Jewish actor as the devil Mephisto because it could be perceived as antisemitic.
“It was a wonderful meeting when I was offered it. It was primarily, I think, an almost entirely Black producing and directing team. And they said, ‘We want to offer you Mephisto, but we are aware of the negative association of Jews historically with the devil, and we want to make sure that you’re not insulted by us offering this.’ It was such an amazingly considerate, empathetic thing to say. And I was like, ‘Yeah, I’m good.’
I think for the Jews out there, sometimes we don’t feel seen. We don’t feel like people can empathize with us, that we are suffering too. And so to have this entirely Black producing and directing team be so empathetic was a moment of being seen. It was an amazing experience.”

Btw I did this interview on only one hour of sleep 😅
Sophont CEO @iScienceLuvr explains the cognitive dissonance of frontier AI labs promising cancer breakthroughs a decade away when AI could help patients right now:
"Anthropic is releasing various blog posts and interesting projects, but it’s still very limited in scope. I think it’s a very promising direction. The challenge is that the timelines are gonna be very long."
"If we’re telling people AI can save lives and cure cancer, but people are waiting 10 years, it’s very hard for people to understand. There are interesting things that can actually have impact right now."
"The labs are all promising they’re gonna have all this impact, but it’s gonna take a while. There’s a little bit of cognitive dissonance going on that people are now starting to catch on to."

being an asian girl in sf is guys jokingly asking if you’re a CCP spy and you don’t have the heart to tell them they’re not even remotely as important as they think they are to get honeypotted in the first place

OPENAI to EMPLOYEES: If someone is trying to seduce you, first consider — could they be a spy???
OpenAI is warning its employees about honeypot spies and strangers with children in playgrounds ... a very fun one with @georgia_wells and @MeghanBobrowsky:

LLMs are magical alien technologies we’ve managed to conjure up from a distillation of the internet. Even if progress completely stalls, we have years worth of value to harness from what we already have. In other words, these lego bricks still haven’t been put together in the most obvious combinations.
