I intuitively understand AI psychosis to be a real phenomenon. We joke about NPC reddit midwits but what happens when you give them a relatively primitive LLM? They become delusional out of convenience.
I see it in my real life too. "Regular people" completely outsourcing their brains to a hallucinating chat bot. They believe it. They don't check it. They just think it's true. It's crazy. Midwits who just stuck to their lane out of intellectual helplessness will suddenly start doing crazy and dangerous things because ChatGPT told them how, but only enough to be dangerous.
The proprietary psychosis has struck you too - the chatbot isn't hallucinating - as hallucinations actually require intelligence - it's just producing garbage output.
Exactly. I know the world police have been exasperatingly annoying, but words are important here. The random next word guessing machine cannot lie or hallucinate, because it has no intent.
The biggest danger of LLMs isn't their output, it's peoples' trust. Like this moron who asked Grock, and less than 3 minutes of basic lookups (along with a court case I knew from actual previous research) showed the answer was entirely wrong: djsumdog.com/@djsumdog/posts/A…
Most of my friends do not know what the term "LLM" is. Some have gone to "AI courses" at their schools and don't understand the core mechanics that all these chatbots have in their models is just a massive lists of parts of words, with floating point values to ever other part of a word. That's it. Nothing else. No one is teaching the very basics of what the models are. They literally only get things "right" by accident and people keep asking "Grock is this true" no matter how many times it obviously generates random words that are verifiably untrue.

Zur Hölle mit dem Krieg! Von Smedley D. Butler - eine Buchrezension von Jonny Rieder
Was vereint #Politiker, #Rüstungsunternehmer, #Bänker, #Generäle? Sie profitieren vom #Krieg. Und was vereint #Soldaten und #Zivilisten? Sie bezahlen. Das tatsächliche Interesse tarnen die, die nicht nur profitieren sondern den Krieg provozieren unter den immer gleichen Vorwänden und hinter den immer gleichen #Lügen von bösen Feinden, die nicht anderes im Sinne haben als uns zu überfallen und so gefährlich sind, dass man sie am besten sofort vernichtet. Das Traurige daran ist, dass viele Menschen die immer gleiche #Propaganda nicht erkennen und auf immer gleiche #Feindbilder herein fallen, ja, sogar ernsthaft glauben, man bräuchte nur mehr Waffen, dann würde alles gut und friedlich werden. Radio München stellt sich jedoch gegen jede Form von Krieg und #Kriegstreiberei, gegen jede Form von #Feindbild-Propaganda und außenpolitische Aggression. Wir erteilen Waffen und #Aufrüstung eine klare Absage. Radio München steht dafür ein, Brücken zu bauen und #Friedenstüchtigkeit zu erlernen: Tag für Tag. Neben den #Friedensnoten jetzt auch mit der Reihe Bücher gegen den Krieg. An jedem ersten Montag im Monat stellen wir eine starke Stimme gegen den Krieg vor, egal ob alt oder neu.
Hören Sie in der ersten Folge: Zur Hölle mit dem Krieg! von Smedley D. #Butler, vorgestellt von unserem Autor Jonny #Rieder.
Sprecherin: Sabrina Khalil
Das Buch ist im Verlag FiftyFifty erschienen, hat 48 Seiten und kostet 12 Euro.

Sounds like a concentration camp! Israeli Defense Minister Unveils Plan For 'Humanitarian City' In Gaza Where Palestinians Won't Be Allowed To Leave @palestine
Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz said he instructed the IDF to establish a "humanitarian city" in southern Gaza where people will be screened to be allowed entry and won't be able to leave
Despite measles being declared eliminated in the US in 2000, annual measles cases have reached a 33-year high — and it's only July.
This is the tragic result of the spread of anti-vax disinformation, and will only get worse in the coming years because anti-vaxxers now lead our health agencies.
In Alberta Canada where anti-vax hit hard and the Premier seems to encourage it we are at ~1190 for a pop of ~4.5mil. She also likes JFKjr advice apparently.
When do schools restart in the US? I dread what will happen then. The holiday camps will mix up kids from various states so nicely spread the disease if they aren't there long enough to eliminate the infection in the camp, then the return to school, oh gosh looking grim, especially if any infant siblings with an outbreak of SSPE in about 7 to 12 years time.
Here an important list of lesser known spices and seasonings. This list has been on my desk for months 1. Asafoetida - A pungent resin from South Asian cuisine, used sparingly in lentil dishes or curries. It mimics onion-garlic flavors and aids digestion. 2. Black Lime (Dried Lime) - Common in Middle Eastern cooking, it adds a tangy, fermented citrus note to stews, rice, or soups.
I have dozens, perhaps hundreds of FreeBSD systems - several of our products are based on platforms running Freebsd. Most are headless, but we've recently begun adding screens and using Xfce as the desktop (Xfce because most of our platforms have weak graphics engines.)
It is very stable - it is not suffering from the Linux problem of too many (code) cooks in the kitchen. But it does tend to run behind Linux in terms of support for the most recent changes in hardware.
That's exactly why I like FreeBSD, there's not an insane number of dependencies for a full featured system. And also why XFCE is my favorite... and I mod it with the good old CDE/Motif theme, because those were the days when the most thought was put into the user experience and productivity.
The modern desktops these days are astonishingly cringe and right out of Redmond😬

I love how intellectually fragile lefties are. I just felt really cute during a con, so while sitting with an obvious leftard, I decided to explain to him that the unavoidable conclusion of gender role theory is, not, that we can decide our own gender, but that 99% of western humans are clearly and definitionally men.
It shut hum up completely, and for the rest of the evening, I could see the gears in his head turn so fast, his hair were boiling.

_New York May Get Government-Owned Grocery Stores_
FTA: Government-run food stores aren’t new. The Soviet Union practiced decades of collectivist control over food prices, supply chains, and market competition under the guise of “equitable” redistribution of wealth. The outcome? Soviet grocery stores experienced frequent shortages, long bread lines, and preferential treatment for Communist Party members. In fact, the USSR’s experience in state-run food services led to some of the worst atrocities in human history, one being the Holodomor, a man-made famine which killed millions of Ukrainians.
More recently, Venezuela’s routine food shortages have been attributed to Chávez’s and Maduro’s chokehold on price controls, land expropriations, and the national subsidization of food distribution. Under the Comité Local de Abastecimiento y Producción (CLAP) program, advertised as an equitable distribution of basic food items, government officials only provide supplies to Venezuelans who prove their support to the regime and show government-issued ID.
Socialists Enrich Themselves, While Everyone Else Is Left Behind
Zohran Mamdani claims that “New York is too expensive,” and that he will “lower costs and make life easier.” If socialism’s history has taught us anything, it is that no one eats for free—if they are lucky enough to eat at all. Mamdani’s goal to inject government into every aspect of New Yorkers’ lives—especially their food supply—will leave Americans hungrier and less safe than ever before.
As Friedrich A. Hayek succinctly warned: “The more the state ‘plans,’ the more difficult planning becomes for the individual.”
Zohran Mamdani has moved forward in the New York City mayoral race as the Democratic nominee, after beating out former New York Democrat Governor Andrew Cuomo

When I was a kid, I sometimes wondered how a sprinkler "knew" how to change directions without being powered with electronics. I think it wasn't until I was in my late 30s that I came across this GIF and I realized how insanely genius a simple sprinkler really is.
EDIT: Some people have kindly pointed out that this GIF was in fact from a demonstration on how different gears function and not from an actual sprinkler as I had originally led to believe. Other people have been assholes about it.

My company does not encourage or promote education. But who is far the most productive in the department, that's me with an engineering degree. Education builds a strong disciplined toolset.

@Tfmonkey about the whole ‘will Trump print money to reinflate the bubble leading to hyperinflation to save Israel’ thing, yes, it will happen.
The Boomers running the world are simply too stuck in their ways to change their minds and actually care about what happens later. And given their track record of suicidally-retarded decisions they will definitely keep going.
Honestly the only thing that can save us now is either a revolution or J.D. Vance launching coup and becoming dictator.
@mutagenus It is not jist Republican boomers choosing inflation to help Israel
But Democrat boomers promoting inflation to fund welfare for migrants
Boomers also like inflation because it raises the sales value of their house and stocks even though it does not make their house or stocks more valuable after inflation is accounted for

On Tuesday 8 April 2025, as expected, a cruise ship from #TelAviv docked in #Heraklion with about two thousand Israeli citizens on board. Locals, in antifascist context, reacted on zionists presence in their city. Check the video to see the reaction of #zionazis.
Without following social and greek media but just the fediverse as source for news, already met dozens of cases of provocative actions of #zionazis who go for tourism (or terrorism maybe...) in #Greece. They spread hatred and threats all around and especially against working people. Be aware and act accordingly against fascists.
Provocations of #zioNaZis. #Volos, #Greece: "At noon on Tuesday I was at the swimming pool and headed to the small pool area where our children used to change. That's where the team members from Israel were, some were coming out of the pool others were changing in the stands. Forced to pass between them, I said the phrase "Free Palestine". I said it but I didn't shout it. At that moment 2-3 people turned around and looked at me and started talking to me intensely and asking me what I said, and then more people gathered. The expressions and gestures that followed from their side afterwards were quite vulgar, and at one point a female athlete, she was not 12 years old hit me on the head with a bag, not hard, but she hit me, and an older teammate picked her up further. Then the coach of the team approached, using the expression "shut up"."
The parents of children of this pool wrote: "When other Municipalities around the world prove their dignified attitude, choosing the right side of history, and decide to cut all ties with the genocidal formation, while respecting the decisions of the International Court of Justice in The Hague, the Municipality of Volos displaces its citizens and shakes bloody hands." eksegersi.gr/politiki/volos-xe… #fightfascism #zionism #AntifaAction
10 Ιούλ 2025, 17:46 - O Μπέος είναι ο... Μπέος. Δε θα μπορούσε ποτέ να έχει την ευαισθησία και τη λεβεντιά του εστιάτορα από το Βίγκο, που πέταξε με τις κλωτσιές τους «πουτάνας γιους σιωνιστές» από το μαγαζί του.
Plomari, #Lesvos: Local businesses expressing solidarity with #Palestine are targeted by #Zionists. According to complaints from residents and workers, in recent weeks there have been cases of aggressive behaviour, negative and defamatory comments on online platforms and direct intimidation of workers by people of Israeli origin.
...The incident came to a head when a store employee was subjected to ironic comments and insulting treatment inside the store by members of a family of Israeli visitors. One young man mockingly called her a "supporter", leaving clear hints about her political stance, and shortly afterwards his mother allegedly stopped her in the street to take a photo and directed an ironic remark at her, which was seen as a clear attempt at intimidation. Reactions in the local community were immediate. Residents expressed their strong annoyance at the occurrence of such phenomena, stressing that Plomari was and remains a hospitable place, but not a silent one. Village society, they argue, has historically demonstrated solidarity, humanity and political sensitivity, and will not be silent in the face of pressure or intimidation practices.

WATCH: Along with other protesters, Medea confronted Israeli war criminal Itamar Ben-Gvir today at the U.S. Capitol and he completely lost it.
Ben-Gvir, Israel’s so-called “Minister of National Security,” has openly called for the ethnic cleansing of Gaza and directs the bombing of civilians, aid workers, and critical infrastructure. His violent, irritable reaction to peaceful protest shows exactly the kind of brutality he unleashes on Palestinians every day. youtube.com/watch?v=TT8-eVHy2T…

It is a known claim that 50% of ultra orthodox jewish boys are raped by ultra orthodox jewish men (so it's definitely higher) AND YET I'M SUPPOSED TO BELIEVE THAT EPSTEIN WASN'T PROCURING CHILDREN FOR THESE PEOPLE TO FUCK?!?!?!
Gaza Doctors Under Attack The whole thing. Not a preview. Not a link to another site. No sign in, no sign up. Watch it here and now. Thanks go to @prolrage
The documentary chronicles Israel’s targeting and destruction of Gaza’s hospitals and medics, 1,500 of whom have been killed.
It's a 2025 documentary on doctors working during the #Gaza war, detailing the killings and #torture of #healthcare workers and attacks on #hospitals by the Israel Defence Forces (#IDF) during the conflict.
The New York Times’s shocking race-science investigation into Zohran Mamdani shows the paper will stop at nothing to upend the progressive star. It is a clear sign of how the paper is stuck in the worst muck of the Israel lobby.
Alfred Schafer, an FTJ streamer in Germany, was just arrested, simply for his speech. He's just a sweet old guy who says the Holohoax didn't happen. Both he and his sister have served prison terms in Germany for the same thing in the past. Germany only has those vile blasphemy laws because of jew run America. These people are considered criminals in Germany, while Arabs rape girls, both of these conditions exist because of jews.
Pushback against mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani has been fierce. That includes the mainstream media, which is trying to brand him a socialist to negate his progressive and popular policy proposals.
Why did Wes Lexner give Epstein a billion dollars and a plan full of underage girls and an island full of underage girls if he wasnt letting politicians fuck the unserage girls?

"Privacy is Dead" Video:
The more obvious threat is to your home security, and to who inhabits that home. Most devices use a cloud service to store data. But while YOU can't access this data, hackers definitely can, and have in the past.
Look at EUFY, the smart camera system that proclaimed everything was local and not in the cloud.
In March 2021, hackers breached a server for security cameras, gaining access to live feeds for hospitals, women's health clinics, prisons, police departments, and even schools.
Alexa speakers were also hacked, with malicious actors getting access to banking details, voice search history, and even access to the various skills and commands you could ask Alexa.
With access to your smart home devices, hackers could remotely disable the alarm, disable the cameras, and just wait until you leave to go and grab everything they want. They could even have a full map of your house thanks to your robot vacuum which diligently created that map for them.
Same applies for privacy, but the main people who benefit from that are the companies that sell you the products.
Most companies that make smart home appliances don't care about the smart home, they care about the data these appliances can give them, and how they can sell access to that data to advertisers.
And again, why would that matter? We're already giving away most of our data to Google, Apple, Meta, Microsoft, and a lot of others.
But it's not just data about YOU, is it? It's data bout your home, and everyone who lives in it. Your significant other, your kids, your visiting friends, family. As long as they stay in your house, their data is also going to the company who made your appliances.
But why you probably SHOULD care is because that data isn't going away. And it's available to any government that has laws that gives it access to.
Basically, here again, if your data is going to a server that's not yours, then the company that hosts it probably uses that data for profiling, and various governments around the world probably have access to it as well.
Now, of course, you CAN set up a smart home without using cloud based products. There's a very cool thing called home assistant. It's open source, it can run on something as small as a raspberry pi, so you can self host it, and all the data stays on your local network, where it's not 100% safe, but it's still way safer than being on the open internet.
Home Assistant integrates with tons and tons of services, like homekit, alexa, google assistant, zigbee, philips hue, samsung smarthings, google cast, Z Wave, and more.
BUT home assistant isn't perfect. First, out of the box, it's local only, so no controlling your stuff when you're not on your wifi network. You can solve that using Home Assistant Cloud. But guess what: you're still using other cloud services like a voice assistant for example to communicate with Home Assistant.
The whole eufy camera debacle raises a good point; even if you choose a reliable brand, how do you know your security cameras won’t leak data, or worse, be hacked to spy on you?
