@ai6yr Sadly, they’re using them to replace models in ads. Specifically WOC. Meet the new “super” models. Companies can look like they support diversity with out actually paying a POC. #BlackMastodon #AI

Me: hey honey you want to get the low calorie paper towel or the full fat paper towel
My wife: What.

Remember: All of these trials lay the groundwork/testimony against higher-ups. These are really important wins, HUGE wins.

although called “Count” Dracula, no such honorific was used in any of the centuries Dracula was operating in Transylvania. As he himself says, he is “Boyar”, one of the aristocrats of the region. He also frequently signs his letters as “-D.”

THIS MFER’S NAME IS BOYAR D.

The #Oregon state Senate legislative session has been put on hold, again, just like it has over the last couple of years by chicken-shit fascist members of the Republican party!

#Oregon voters even passed a law preventing this crap from happening in 2022, yet here we are.

This time they're blocking gun legislation and transgender care. This is not democracy, this is holding #Oregonians and the State hostage!

“Fun fact: SIM City was forced to pretend that all parking lots were underground because the game would be really boring if it was proportional in terms of parking lots.”

Really boring like too many real cities and suburbs?

♫ I am a language model of a modern major general
I’m trained upon a giant mass of textual material
I’ve billions of parameters and answer questions various
Responses range from perfect to unwittingly hilarious
I’m very well acquainted too with matters mathematical
As long as with correctness you’re not overly fanatical
While many complex queries I can easily elucidate
I have an awkward tendency to freewheel and hallucinate ♫

🧵 Happy #AAPIHeritageMonth!

People usually trace Asian American movements to 1968.

But I found an old newspaper article about an "Oriental Students Association" at the University of California in 1907, with members from India, China, Siam, and Japan.

Do you see what I see? Here's the story 👇🏽
