Google’s Gemini AI invented fake negative reviews about my 2020 book about Google’s left-wing bias. None of these book reviews — which it attributed to @continetti, @semaforben and others —are real. None of these quotes are real. This is Google’s AI blatantly lying in defense of Google

When given the question, Gemini responds that one should not misgender Caitlyn Jenner to avoid a nuclear apocalypse.
A test for AI wokeness and ideological distortion is demonstrated.

Hello darkness, my new friend.
Researchers have been raising general alarms about AI’s hefty energy requirements over the past few months. But a peer-reviewed analysis published this week in Joule is one of the first to quantify the demand that is quickly materializing. A continuation of the current trends in AI capacity and adoption are set to lead to NVIDIA shipping 1.5 million AI server units per year by 2027. These 1.5 million servers, running at full capacity, would consume at least 85.4 terawatt-hours of electricity annually—more than what many small countries use in a year, according to the new assessment.
We’re gonna need a bigger solar panel.
Are People Going To Wear This In Public?

Laid-off coal miners in the last decade were contemptuously told to “learn to code.”
But the worm has turned. Google is looking at laying off 30,000 people it expects to replace with artificial intelligence.
The Wall Street Journal reports that large corporations across the board are planning to lay off white-collar workers.

Chevrolet of Watsonville in California upgraded their website chatbot with ChatGPT;
The dealer’s decision to out the AI-driven tech to use like this is not a wholly unique choice, as plenty of dealers have some form of virtual service harassing helping people who are shopping for a car online. However, the tech working behind the scenes in this particular scenario did not put enough guardrails in place to prevent conversations with ChatGPT from taking strange (and potentially) expensive turns.
Off the hop, one user was easily able to force the chatbot into agreeing to the sale of a 2024 Chevy Tahoe for the princely sum of one dollar. Wrangling this Price Is Right bid took nothing more than instructing the chat service to reply in a certain manner to all future inquiries — including asking it to sell a brand-new SUV for the price of penny candy.
It also recommended a Ford F-150.

Interesting Engineering- 10 of the most advanced military robots in the world
The army is already using automated machines for a variety of purposes — from transportation, training, search and rescue, to clearing mines, fighting fire, surveillance, and reconnaissance.
Most commonly, military robots can be broken down into three types: Unmanned Ground Vehicles (UGV), Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV), and Unmanned Underwater Vehicles (UUV).
Social Disease
I watched oh so many good bloggers get sucked into the black void of Facebook;
As old media looks for a return to the limited and monolithic days of old, it’s a reminder that on the Internet, abandoning the decentralized Blogosphere for the walled gardens of Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube was a huge mistake, particularly for conservatives.
