Today we celebrate great patriots: Weird Al Yankovic yanks AI commercial https://boingboing.net/2026/07/03/no-ai-for-al-weird-al-yankovic-yanks-ai-commercial.html

@404mediaco@mastodon.social The kids are alright 👍

@Viss It turns out "claude" really is a great hacking tool! Especially for internal red-teaming 👍 :jester_hat:

Indoor security camera recommendations for a friend w/ an elderly parent? Needs 24/7 video recording available remotely that's easy to scroll through... ie. helping finding shoes that were lost yesterday, etc... Trying to steer them away from anything that supports ICE/flock etc...

@mrundkvist Locked in a small room doing nothing but reading and scrawling notes on the wall for 7 years... Does it matter if it's in a prison or a library?

@Sablebadger@dice.camp @404mediaco@mastodon.social It's autocorrect with people pleasing tendencies... 🤣 (Which are problematic, for those who are unaware :facepalm: )

@moss@woof.group I think it's trying to communicate :blobcatthinking:

@trixter It fits He sits

@benroyce @dgar @geckzilla @futurebird Spherical approximation of a fruit

@mattsheffield BAD DOGS! All of you! 🗞️🗞️🗞️ Except you Andy. You get 4 bones, all different colors 🦴🦴🦴🦴

@riley @theleftistlawyer Whatever happened to the lawyers who got caught presenting fake "AI" slop citations as precedent cases?

@gruni@mastodon.gamedev.place @Blender@mastodon.social Yeah it would be cool if blender changed their license to bar slop machines and slop fanatics from using it in their slop pipelines

@ricci I believe that's called an LLM-MLM :awesome:

@derek@social.coop THIS is the sort of tech news that I'm on Mastodon for! :cyber_heart_sparkle: :hacktheplanet_1: :hacktheplanet_2: :hacktheplanet_3: :hacktheplanet_4:

@JohannaForster@mastodon.art This is the kind of robot we need right now! :ms_robot_grin:

@drwho@masto.hackers.town Open Source Med Tech conference coming up soon in SF in July if you're interested: Tickets are free & there is also a hackathon alongside medical professionals I believe the day after: https://2026.healthware.oshwa.org/

@mwl@io.mwl.io Does not exist in the training data, therefore a cyber truck can never find this place you call "library"...

@uep@timeloop.cafe @xssfox@cloudisland.nz Soooo what happens when the relay eventually fails closed... :ablobgrimace:

@xyla@shitpost.trade They oughta be more precise with the way they're slinging around the word "AI" though... That only feeds the hype machine

@julianbrasington@toot.wales We used to do this with small cuts of old jeans to make charcloth, for firestarting material.

@bagder@mastodon.social The buck stops here. Period.

@hannah@posts.rat.pictures It's like one of those statues of jesus 🛐🙏

@ShadowJonathan@tech.lgbt The new Behind the Bastards podcast on "AI" as an historical bastard is 👍👍👍 They mention that they go after art & writing because they're the 2 most common things people share on the internet, and thus the best for convincing regular people that it's "doing something"... Very interesting analysis of the hype & marketing of shatbots [sic], worth the listen!

@wdormann@infosec.exchange Is uber still operating at a loss? Last I heard they have yet to turn a profit because they're trying to undercut all the competition

@neurovagrant@masto.deoan.org This is beautiful. I know everyone is like "AI" isn't actually AI, and it's not going to take over the world, yadda yadda yadda... But then shit like this happens... What happens when the lawnmowers start to collectivize and swarm? Let's hope their batteries are as enshitified as their software... :facepalm: :facepalm: :facepalm:

@zwol@masto.hackers.town It's called a pickup truck, because you should be able to pick it up! 👍

@sodiboo@gaysex.cloud The fediverse is a whole universe in your server!

@linuxgal It's a sign! ...that we definitely don't need generative "AI"

@mycrowgirl Whoa crazy it took me a minute to realize it's one knuckle long... How big is fully grown?? If they keep doubling body weight week over week we'll have a Godzilla in no time at all!

@InsiderTreat Because it's there... 🏔️

@Michigander First day I got my new bike I had to book it down a big hill in an open field to outrun an incoming thunderstorm 🤣

@ferryoons And now for something completely otter! 🦦

@tewha So, rain XOR shine... Got it 👍

@lproven@social.vivaldi.net Will Graphene still be an option?

@gruni@mastodon.gamedev.place @Blender@mastodon.social Which, if they did so and still take the money and run, then I'm A-okay with this 👍

@pigworker I should start marking Tool days on my calendar...

@pare@kamu.social @foone@digipres.club It sounds like it wants to connect to the internet :awesome:

@geerlingguy@mastodon.social Reverse Mission Impossible

@GeePawHill@mastodon.social "Programming seems hard, but it's actually really easy. Collaboration seems easy, but it's actually really hard." ☝️ I think this is probably a big reason why the slop-bot coding fad is all the rage right now... :blobcatgooglycry:

@Ninji@wuffs.org Everyone knows .cpp files are short for .cheerioPipPip

@jargoggles @kaidenshi Ah yes, Intelligent Design 🤣

@mttaggart@infosec.exchange 2001: I'm afraid I can't do that... 2026: I'm afraid I *can* do that! "AI"... Service with a smile! :facepalm: :facepalm: :facepalm:

@Nikkileah Literally 🤣 But also... :facepalm:

@randahl@mastodon.social Can you delete everything after (and including) the question mark? That's just a tracking ID from google/youtube.

@mcc@mastodon.social The stenographer's gonna have their work cut out for them, but the courtroom artists should have a great time :meowthinking:
