Real conversation just now with co workers about the lottery NPCs: “Dude if I won the lottery I would put it in a high yield savings and earn interest I could just live off of” Me: Who actually won the last lottery? Them: no idea, the winners are anonymous. Me: so you just trust that it’s not rigged and someone actually wins? Them: Dude they couldn’t rig it it’s impossible and statistics don’t lie Me: with all the critical thinking capacity that you have, can you dream up any possible way that they could rig the winner? Them: No

@ODELL "I've played Sobol's games. A lot. His Al succeeds because it doesn't anticipate you—it manipulates you." I can’t put this book down

JESUS CHRIST IS THE ONLY WAY TO ETERNAL LIFE. ITS A FREE GIFT THAT DOES NOT DEPEND ON OUR ABILITIES BECAUSE THEOLOGICALLY SPEAKING WE HAVE ZERO CAPACITY TO PLEASE A HOLY GOD. WE ARE SINNERS AND HE IS PERFECT. WITHOUT THE SAVING GRACE OF JESUS CHRIST PAYING THE PRICE FOR OUR SINS, WE WOULD HAVE NO HOPE OF BEING IN THE PRESENCE OF THE LORD. BUT THANKS BE TO GOD THAT HE LOVED US AND GAVE HIS ONLY SON SO THAT WE COULD HAVE ETERNAL LIFE. ASK JESUS FOR MERCY AND HE IS FAITHFUL. HE IS UNDEFEATED.

It looks like vlogs are the shitcoins of this cycle

Jordi Visser encourages the listener, in his convo with @Marty Bent on @TFTC, to have a conversation with an AI on voice mode about Joseph Shumpeter and his concept of creative destruction. I’ve never used AI this way and it was wonderful. I think I’m going to lean into this method heavily. I can already see how this could be the beginning of my understanding how my kids will interact with AI as a replacement for the educational system that I grew up with.
