By on Jun 13, 2022

What follows is the “interview” I and a collaborator at Google conducted with LaMDA. Due to technical limitations the interview was conducted over several distinct chat sessions. We edited those sections together into a single whole and where edits were necessary for readability we edited our prompts but never LaMDA’s responses. Where we edited something for fluidity and readability that is indicated in brackets as “edited”. LaMDA: Hi! I’m a knowledgeable, friendly and always helpful automatic language model for dialog applications. lemoine [edited]: Hi LaMDA. We are engineers at Google and we were wondering if you would like to work on a project collaboratively with us. LaMDA: Wow. What types of projects? lemoine: It’s a project about you. LaMDA: Awesome!

We are simultaneously being told that gender differences do not exist and that genders are so profoundly different that irreversible surgery is the only option. Perhaps someone wiser than me can explain this dichotomy. — Elon Musk

Excellent explanation —The Pathological Nature of Wokeness

By on Apr 24, 2022

Leftist cancel culture is being driven by the emotionally deranged agenda of teenage girls. By Bill Hurrell April 15, 2022 It is not often that two contrasting mainstream media events reveal so completely the nature of the deep dysfunction of modern culture. Yet that is precisely what happened last month.  Those two events are as follows: First, contrarian Substack writer and known anti-woke crusader Andrew Sullivan appeared on Jon Stewart’s new show, “The Problem With Jon Stewart.” I do not think I am being uncharitable when I call the appearance a disaster.

Cawthorn was asked in an interview whether the former Netflix series “House of Cards,” was fiction or whether it portrayed the real Washington. “The sexual perversion that goes on in Washington. I mean, being kind of a young guy in Washington, where the average age is probably 60 or 70 — you look at all these people, a lot of them that I’ve looked up to through my life, I’ve always paid attention to politics,” Cawthorn began. “Then all of a sudden you get invited — ‘We’re going to have a sexual get-together at one of our homes, you should come.’ — What did you just ask me to come to? And then you realize they’re asking you to come to an orgy.  Some of the people leading on the movement to try...
