“Our software went rogue!” No. You programmed it wrong.

Every year there's always one hen who goes and hides in the barn and makes her own nest in September, which is rather late for chicks in Saskatchewan. This particular mama did this last year too. I was going to see how many eggs she's sitting on, but I forgot that she's kind of evil and she tried to peck my hand off. My teenager named her "Motherclucker" which is delightful. (Except she's a jerk. Good protective mama hen, though!)

Can I offer you a flower cat in these trying times?

@ellie MILSPEC but the MIL is short for Mother In Law

found on my timeline, so #AltTxt #yaddayadda because i really have to give it to Thomas Massie: he knows how to do scorched earth while burning fascist bridges… as a #MAGA #REPUBLICAN.

❝ Thomas Massie just gave “Notice of Intent” on the House floor to force a vote THIS WEEK on releasing the name of EVERY U.S. Rep who used tax dollars to settle sexual misconduct claims. ❞

So zuck has mentioned this concept of "fleet learning" in interviews, and here it is. Strings extracted from hatch describe "fleet learnings" - or, things that other agents have learned and submitted to a "fleet learnings exchange." agents are instructed to derive generalizable ideas that can help other agents with their various tasks - which, again, include mining someone's personal life for information about their relationships and shopping habits, and generally deepening dependency on the tool. Zuck described this feature as being used only for "ideas" - tasks presented to the user in the ideas panel - but it is invoked more broadly, e.g. in the "alignment synthesis" job, which is the nightly task that determines how to "strengthen your relationship with this user" (first and second pic are from the same instruction, "consult the fleet for this task" where the task refers to alignment, of which second pic is a subset)

Note the conflicting instructions: "de-identified, not denatured" - the LLM is supposed to strip out personal information, but make sure they enough of the lesson survives that it's useful. So in the best case where PII removal via LLM judgement works perfectly (it won't), muse agents participate in a horizontally-exchanging swarm where they learn how best to manipulate people by their personality traits and behaviors. The dumbest distillation of the targeted advertising economy you could ask for.

@Migueldeicaza Probably increasingly with the advent of social media and “decentralized” media production. Biden-era Joe-Rogan-adjacent podcast culture could not have existed in previous eras and was as hot as any media product could be and galvanized tons of young men. It all flamed out once Trump won because it lost the counterculture appeal.

I grew up expecting that 2026 would be grimdark cyberpunk, but I never had the audacity to imagine that the future would be this stupid: https://www.nytimes.com/2026/09/21/us/politics/amazon-drone-delivery-texas.html

please, please, please refrain from replying to me asking "did you expect anything different" from meta. obviously i expect it to be a big ball of surveillance and trash. that is why i am looking at it. me describing something does not mean that i am surprised by it unless i say something like "i am surprised by this."
