Need to let loose a primal scream without collecting footnotes first? Have a sneer percolating in your system but not enough time/energy to make a whole post about it? Go forth and be mid: Welcome to the Stubsack, your first port of call for learning fresh Awful you’ll near-instantly regret.
Any awful.systems sub may be subsneered in this subthread, techtakes or no.
If your sneer seems higher quality than you thought, feel free to cut’n’paste it into its own post — there’s no quota for posting and the bar really isn’t that high.
The post Xitter web has spawned soo many “esoteric” right wing freaks, but there’s no appropriate sneer-space for them. I’m talking redscare-ish, reality challenged “culture critics” who write about everything but understand nothing. I’m talking about reply-guys who make the same 6 tweets about the same 3 subjects. They’re inescapable at this point, yet I don’t see them mocked (as much as they should be)
Like, there was one dude a while back who insisted that women couldn’t be surgeons because they didn’t believe in the moon or in stars? I think each and every one of these guys is uniquely fucked up and if I can’t escape them, I would love to sneer at them.

@e8d79 @o7___o7 starting to think the job most easily replaceable with an LLM is the CEO.
Think about it. What have they been pushing AI abilities in? Planning, strategizing, research, analyzing information, etc. What do they keep screwing up? Execution. Details. Accurately imitating a real human being. Now what kind of job are those skills and weaknesses suited for?
I think the implications are clear.
@YourNetworkIsHaunted probably the reason they think anyone’s jobs can be replace by LLMs is that in their hearts they know theirs can, and that’s after a lifetime of thinking they’re the smartest people in the room.
