‘What’s the difference between me reading your work?” Sam #Altman (ChatGPT) asked.
‘It’s all free to read. What’s the difference? You’re outputting to potentially millions of people for commercial gain for no recompense, said [#Cadwalladr].
‘It’s fair use, he countered. It’s really not, I said. You’ve ingested the entire body of my work. It’s so easy to establish that.
And he was gone. Back to the controls of the tank that is soon to roll over all of us.’
Einstein was a genius, but also an asshole—cold to his wife, neglectful of his kids, and full of himself in scientific debates.

Happy Weedster Sunday to all my stoner friends!
Did the Weedster bunny put a dime bag in your basket?
ChatGPT doesn't need your digital photo metadata to figure out where you took it from. The latest model GPT-o3 can geo-locate you from almost any photo just by guessing and it will even explain its thinking to you.

This is going to be a long rant. Honestly, the 2020s aren't looking good at all. This is a rant from my personal opinions. I like to play a lot of the 90s and early 2000s shit, including music, TV shows (which also may include adult shows), radio recordings that people have made, you name it. I did used to make radio recordings when I was young, but I don't have those cassettes. Although I listen to them on YouTube. It's great because you can be taken to a different place and time, even if you never even lived it. Do you know why? Because the 20s are shit! People are ignorant dumbasses, also the radio market is mostly the same thanks to people like iHeart, and the only good thing is if the station is privately owned, or a pirate radio station like myself. Low powered stations are good. Also, they're mostly community stations. Yes, we may have great tech and AI that we love to use, and that's the truth. I've been big on AI, especially throughout 2023 and upwards. I use a lot of AI tools, like notebookLM, #ChatGPT, Suno, ElevenLabs, and everything else that I won't mention. But I don't miss some people, some of the music, some shit are lame, most of the time shit is sampled and put into new songs, and most other media is trash. It's so simple that I could do that! Hardly any effort is put into the music nowadays. I think some people do it just for money and don't think about putting emotion into any of the songs. Some songs that have samples are good remixes, and some other songs should just be left alone never to be untouched. For example, whoever thought about sampling glamorous by Fergie and made first class is fucking dumb, because you basically turned that into a shit song. Although I do like the version of forever young buy Ava Max, David Guetta and Alphaville. Also, why do some songs have to be played a lot only because they got viral on #TikTok? As Alex Krier said, the top 40 billboard might as well be called the TikTok top 100, because that's all it is! Aside from FM radio, there's a SiriusXM channel called TikTok radio, which is channel 4. If I wanted to make my favorite songs go viral by doing something, it would get played on the radio, and not only that, people would be listening to it more. That's just the truth! Though, I could use that to my advantage lol. But that doesn't mean that I won't see if there's anything new that is good, but nine times out of 10 most of it is shit. I'm not saying there isn't anything that I like, but most of the shit from this decade is bad. Everything is expensive nowadays, and I wouldn't be surprised if the market crashed. Because of things continue to go how they are right now, it wouldn't be surprised if that happens. Do I even have to mention the pandemic? Add in that factor. The worst possible way you could start a decade. Graduation was shit, the whole thing was a joke, even being stuck at home because of that. Everything was put into a halt, everything flipped upside down, and look where we are five years later. Too bad for the people who have to grow up in this decade, they won't remember anything. They would have a shitty childhood. Aside from the tech that they may or may not have, depending on the parents that they live with. But other than that, they wouldn't have much to say about their time, not like we do or even people older than us. It sucks for you if you grew up in 2020, whether if you were in elementary school or even high school. Studies have shown that a lot of the kids younger have a lot of social issues and problems down the road, thanks to the virtual schooling bullshit. Some people even would have to be held back a grade because of it . I would've hated 2020 back then if I was a lot younger, but my dumbass wouldn't know what's going on, some people would have to tell me because I wouldn't have all the tools and resources that I have now. I would prefer to have been born in the mid 80s before the 90s, because everything in that decade seemed really dope. I'm not gonna bother explaining again. Also, YouTube has way too many ads, Microsoft has become greedy and money hungry, you literally have ads on the start menu of Windows 11, and Windows 10. The start menu is not the place for ads. There's a place for ads, but the start menu is not the place. Speaking of which I've been looking for new Windows 11 PCs since my PC doesn't support it. At least we have Mastodon, jacket FM, and audiopub which my account is banned, fuck. But at least we have all these new platforms that are actually good. In short, the 20s are shit, always will be, fuck the 20s and over, everything below that was better. Do you agree? Who agrees?
ChatGPT is driving me nuts with sychophantic responses. I don't need a flattery for every mundane message.
‘Don’t ask what AI can do for us, ask what it is doing to us’: are ChatGPT and co harming human intelligence? https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2025/apr/19/dont-ask-what-ai-can-do-for-us-ask-what-it-is-doing-to-us-are-chatgpt-and-co-harming-human-intelligence #Artificialintelligence(AI) #Technology #Computing #Chatbots #Science #Society #ChatGPT #Google
#AI poses a threat... that you trust in it too much, use it incorrectly and mess up your company, career or life. You're better off thinking of it as an artificial content generator than anything #intelligent.

I asked ChatGPT for some bumper sticker ideas for the utility trailer that my Prius pulls. There were a few good starting points which I customized.
Which are best? Multi choice. Feel free to @ me with revisions or your own ideas.
If you vote, you should boost... For diversity of perspective. Yeah, that's it. 
There is a ton of misinformation being generated about #ChatGPT doing Geoguessr, so here are some basic facts from some quick tests.
- It works pretty well. Not Rainbolt level, but much better than I can do.
- It is not cheating by extracting metadata or stuff it knows about me. All my tests were screenshots copy/pasted into the interface.
- o3 has a kind of "think out loud" feature that shows its approach. You can see it actively zooming in, making guesses and confirming with web searches.
New ChatGPT trend! 
Users are using the latest models to identify locations from photos, raising privacy concerns. 
Can it pinpoint where that Insta selfie was taken? 
Models don't rely on memories, but subtle hints. Is your location safe?

I've been using AI to help me organize tasks and it has been TREMENDOUSLY helpful.
I did a huge mental dump a few weeks ago and have gotten through a ton more tasks than expected, or maybe I simply don't give myself credit when I complete tasks and have only focused on the active/incomplete.
Yesterday I solidified a foundational schedule for basic human needs/adulting/work/leisure time, so now I'm moving on to adding in specific chores for an at-home and away from home schedule. That will be completed by the end of the weekend.
Tonight I'm focusing on adding all the brain stuff I wrote down that, as I'm learning, overwhelms my mind, but isn't all that urgent so long as I have a central place to store it.
For that I purchased three spiral notebooks a week or so ago. One is for work, one is for person and one is for "content-creation" and/or hobbies.
I feel SO relieved. AI can be useful, if used correctly.
ELBOWS UP & GLOVES OFF!
