When I look at that picture, I see a prompt: generic white female, corporate upper management, business casual style, non-blonde.

If you don’t specify non-blonde AI will just create a new Aryan Fox host and there are already too many of those.

The rest of his dreamed-up team are also super generic. Put headsets on those and they could be the on the landing page of any corporate website.

That is a crazy story, ... also very funny.

People are weird all right!

Power-tripping master of the universe wanna-bes are weirder than most :)

Ta, Robyn. I'm really tired of this massive theft from the community of creatives. No redeeming characteristics.

I’m enjoying how all but one of the hands in the Yosemite photo are tucked away out of sight.

Embarrassing enough this guy popped a stiffy for a glorified auto fill script, but just you wait until he finds out she has an 18 fingered eldritch abomination at the end of both her arms.

Henry Blodget. Wasn't that the serial killer at the Chicago World Fair with the hotel fitted out for murder? No, sorry, that was Herman Blodget. I wonder if they're related?

For such a hot-shit A.I. editor, little Tess seems to really SUCK at her job. You'd think that she could at least edit herself rather than burble out a wall-of-text management-speak blather. So many words to say so little! I could have said the same thing, far more effectively, in just seven words. But what do I know, I'm just a human being.

Robot Chicken did a sketch about a scientist who invented the first humanoid robot. The only question from the audience?

Can you fuck it?

"After all, this team we’re building is as much about human connection as it is about ideas and information" said the non-human, machine-generated fake person who is certainly not actually connecting with Howard in any real sense.

"A new life awaits you in the off-world colonies, a chance to begin again in a golden land of opportunity and adventure...."

Not to mention, lots of skin jobs.

And this, like whatever nonsense Matt Yglasias is spreading today, is the reason everyone hates nepobabies. They didn't get where they are because they're smart or clever or have something useful to say.
