Beware: "you are on the list" - "or upgrade to access instantly"

I upgraded, same message. I downgraded, they kept the money because now I have a month of a plan that I didn't need to check something I still don't have access to.

Tell that to CNBC.

Well, there are claims that this is grok, so it is just a matter of time.

This is awesome!
spam calls are not free, but the cost is very low.

IMHO, that was the beginning of the deep troubles we are in right now, and cause of the political polarization. The brainwash was very effective, not only in the US, but also in Brazil.

Ever heard of netflix, youtube, disney+, paramount, hulu, etc?
On an unrelated note, the government is rounding up protected wild horses and sending them to slaughterhouses.

One trend that I've noticed recently is that I find myself discussing things with an LLM through a human proxy.

Interesting. Xfinity blocked this page as a "security threat." It's likely doing that solely based on the TLD.
The entire healthcare system seems to be built against the population. I've come to see healthcare providers like doctors, nurses, technicians, and the like, as a conniving, essential part of the scheme. They're incentivized to make you wait hours unnecessarily, rush every visit, and involve as many different people as possible in your care. And then, in the end, send ridiculous bills to both your insurance provider and to you at home. The person who spends the most time with you is usually the one trying to collect the payment. It's absurd.

There is absolutely no reason for a doctor to make over $1000 for a 15 minute conversation.

There is absolutely no reason for a medical equipment provider to bill more than the retail price of a piece of equipment, especially after insurance has already paid more than the full cost of the equipment on each installment.

There is absolutely no reason for a family to receive a bill of almost one million dollars because their baby was premature and was in the NICU (see @thepasinins on instagram).

There are too many layers in the system making a fortune off the public's back while adding little to no actual value.

Re:YouTube to automatically label AI-generated videos on Wednesday May 27, 2026 @08:14PM (#48302555)
This is much needed. I’ve had family members sending me videos about what looked like news when in fact it was 100% AI. There are photorealistic AI videos pretending to be an old man giving life advice, or business advice, etc. and the disclosures were all the way at the bottom of the video description, very hard to find.

Most of the country actually is capable of watching a video and seeing what in fact happened. Seek help, you need it.

What are the odds of Elon already providing this kind of service through Teslas?

Forcing an LLM to have extreme right-wing behavior has a much bigger negative impact in society than not liking openclaw or not answering things about Sam.

> but I don’t think language models being structurally incapable of offending your favorite race/ethnicity/caste should be an objective of AI labs.

The opposite should not be an objective either, and Elon has been very openly manipulating what grok says.

Re:Grok 4.3 on Friday May 01, 2026 @10:57AM (#47975540)
I just refuse to use Grok after seeing Elon Musk openly manipulating its output.
> Tesla has awful software

Tell me you have zero experience with a Tesla without telling me you have zero experience with a Tesla

I was skeptical. I then recorded the screen of myself typing, using the iPhone's screen recorder itself, and it is happening with me. I thought I was the issue. Wow.

Complete absurd, unless their goal is to clone every SaaS ever built.
