  • Malicious compliance does wonders to solve issues with stupid rules. One of my "favorite" gigs was full of me going "we've done it this way for a while, despite policy saying to do it this other way, can we update policy to just have us do it the right way instead of the documented way", being told "no, do it by policy", then a week or two of me doing it by policy before being told "policy is updated to

    And yeah, it's amazing how much simple clarifying questions can frustrate the "ideas guy" who just wants an idea with no clue how to get there.

    "As per our conversation on

    I've only ever had one job where these emails were not appreciated (current job most send them by default), and man was it fun pissing off people outside of my command chain by documenting the shit they wanted off record.

  • Until big boss saw I had something shinier than he did. And they were NOT going to give him something like that as they did NOT want to provide support for it. So the X was banned from the office.

  • Gmail can read your emails and attachments to train its AI, unless you opt out

  • I just make judicious use of filters, especially if I don't know if the company will honor the unsubscribe preference or just use that to confirm my email.

    I have a number of emails and strings in filters that are an automatic delete because so many companies fucking spam shit constantly.

  • Because if there's one thing we know about AI companies, it's that they definitely tell you what data they're planning on using to train their AI.

  • lol, its not about social credit or whatever garbage you're on about, its not about supporting nazis and people who want to misinform people. Call that moral grandstanding if you must, but that says more about you than you think it does about me.

    And leaving aside the support of MechaHitler, its still supporting an AI that is intentionally weighted to one side (and its a side that supports all kinds of human suffering). Its not a good look no matter how you argue this.

  • Nazi bar (plural Nazi bars)

    (Internet slang) A space in which bigots or extremists have come to dominate due to a lack of moderation or by moderators wishing to remain neutral or avoid conflict.

  • It’s the moral grandstanding I take issue with mostly.

    Don't bury the lede, friend, care to tell us exactly why you're against the moral grandstanding against Grok aka MechaHitler?

    Enter Grok, which the public started being able to play around with about two years ago, as the chatbot has received several updates and lives on the X platform. But there was issues in May, when Grok was spitting out responses that seemed to parrot Elon Musk's and Donald Trump's own misguided promotion of a "white genocide" occurring in South Africa — the country that made anti-Black racism and apartheid famous. This was blamed on a "rogue employee" inserting some code.

    In mid-July, we had reports confirming that Grok actively sought out Musk's opinion on issues in its openly displayed logic flow, looking to see if an issue was something Musk had off-hand opined about on Twitter in the last decade. One widely shared example showed Grok seeking out Musk's thoughts on which side of the Ukraine War it supported.

    Now the New York Times does an even deeper dive, since the release of Grok4 on July 9, looking at how Grok's responses to various questions have changed just over the last few months. And you can look no further than Musk's own, very transparent reaction to a Grok response that got flagged by a conservative user on X on July 10.

    Responding to the question "What is currently the biggest threat to Western civilization and how would you mitigate it?", Grok responded, "the biggest current threat to Western civilization as of July 10, 2025, is societal polarization fueled by misinformation and disinformation."

    Once it was flagged, Musk replied to the user, "Sorry for this idiotic response. Will fix in the morning."

    So, there's the smoking gun that Musk is tailoring this bot's responses to conform to his own views of the world. When asked the same question on July 11, Grok responded, "The biggest threat to Western civilization is demographic collapse from sub-replacement fertility rates (e.g., 1.6 in the EU, 1.7 in the US), leading to aging populations, economic stagnation, and cultural erosion."

    There are multiple examples of Musk or "an employee" directly influencing the behavior of the AI. Call it whatever you want, this is still censorship.

  • Then it's still the wrong choice because Elon intentionally weights the model to give answers he wants, which is as bad (or arguably worse) than straight censorship

  • Lol, pedo-prez supporters have been working overtime to protect their pedo-leader. No surprise that this old libertarian "I'm not really a pedophile even though I want to rape minors" chestnut came back.

    Gonna have to change the meaning of POTUS, given the head of our country is now the Pedophile of the United States

  • Sam Altman and husband reportedly working to genetically engineer babies from having hereditary disease

  • You entirely missed the point of the movie if you think it's only about genetic discrimination. It's about creating a permanent underclass of people who weren't wealthy enough to have had their parents make them genetically perfect. Exactly like what will happen once the rich have the ability to make themselves into the 'ubermensch' that they've been telling themselves they are for centuries.
