somewhere out there, there's a writer who really likes the em dash, the word "delve," and answering questions with a one-word hyper-chipper affirmative, followed by three sentences of people pleasing. He can't get a job because he keeps being accused of using AI

Didn’t know it was something readable! I just know it as an episode of Love Death + Robots. It was a standout episode in an otherwise pretty boring first two seasons.
kinda related but wouldn’t it be fun to believe that LLMs were invented by Big Em Dash as a conspiracy
Ok so in arabic it’s exactly how this guy wants it
reminded me of this

Silicon Valley will rediscover Islam:
- fasting for clarity and focus
- mindfulness 5 times a day
- no alcohol that ruins the soul & body
- long-term faithful relationships for a fulfilling happy family life
- effective altruism by giving zakat directly to the poor
Fortunately, we do not work in physical proximity!
Text conversation that keeps happening with coworker:
Coworker:
Me: what’s the source for that?
Coworker: Oh I got Copilot to summarise these links: , saves me the time of typing
Saw this, was going to post this a literal minute before you did but stared into this abyss a little too long.
Here's what the abyss revealed:
- Guy is fucking stupid
- Guy is fucking stupid, hence the AI use
- Guy is fucking stupid, AI accidentally his whole database and he is still an AI glazer
Can't wait to see this guy just use a different but same tool to delete his shit again, and learn nothing
Tangential: I’ve heard that there are 3D printer people that print junk and sell them. This would not be much of a problem if they didn’t pollute the spaces they operate in. The example I’ve heard of is artist alleys at conventions- a 3D printer person will set up a stall and sell plastic models of dragons or pokemon or whatever. Everything is terrible!
What’s your P(that question has been asked at a US three letter agency)
Abstracted abstract:
Frontier models are increasingly trained and deployed as autonomous agents, which significantly increases their potential for risks. One particular safety concern is that AI agents might covertly pursue misaligned goals, hiding their true capabilities and objectives – also known as scheming. We study whether models have the capability to scheme in pursuit of a goal that we provide in-context and instruct the model to strongly follow. We evaluate frontier models on a suite of six agentic evaluations where models are instructed to pursue goals and are placed in environments that incentivize scheming.
I saw this posted here a moment ago and reported it*, and it looks to have been purged. I am reposting it to allow us to sneer at it.

this is great, but now I'm sad
