Consumers don't want AI. Boomers don't want AI. Younger generations don't want AI. Even actual COMPANIES don't want AI. But they kept pushing it thanks to botd and paid shills. And now, it's crashing, and everyone is celebrating lmao
Just deleted a couple terabytes of ai slop 😌

Growing up hearing “Wikipedia isn't a valid source” and then entering a workplace where people say “just ask ChatGPT” is a surprisingly strange timeline

The AI bubble bursting is going to be one of the biggest reality checks in tech history. These companies have spent years convincing us that AI is the future while burning billions, destroying jobs, draining natural resources and forcing products nobody asked for into our daily lives. Eventually, the hype has to meet reality.

Every single one of these companies deserves to fail for what they have done to all of us.

I saw a post on Reddit today about AI that said, “AI is data, and data can only look backwards. Creativity looks forwards.” And I genuinely need to sit with the weight of that for a while.

Schools: DO NOT send your child to school if they’re sick. Also schools: If your child misses one more day of school, you’re probably going to jail idk.

one of the more bizarre ongoing plotlines is the UK government insisting that war with Russia is imminent and everyone around just looking around and going “what?”
BREAKING: The UK government published guidance urging households to “be ready” in the event of a national emergency by stocking up on essentials, per Bloomberg

Speaking as someone who is socially awkward myself, if you see the mundane interaction of hugging your grandparents as a violation of consent, you are fucked in the head, most likely evil, and I feel no sympathy towards you. Like, gIve me a fucking break.
🇮🇪 The Irish state has published an advert discouraging grandparents from hugging their grandchildren, as part of a campaign designed to promote "consent".

it’s infuriating how the blue checkmark system was already the perfect, built-in way to avoid all of this AI impersonation bullshit and it got systematically destroyed so social media apps could charge people an extra ~$10 a month
Mia Goth slams Meta for allowing an AI-generated selfie of herself wearing a “MY EX IS MY BIGGEST FAN” shirt to spread: “It is incomprehensible that Instagram evidently prioritizes the dissemination of forged and manipulated images over the protection and integrity of a public figure’s likeness.”
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The quoted statement is from Mia Goth's representative Christine Tripicchio, not from Mia Goth herself, who has no social media accounts. The image was posted by a labeled fan account @miagoth_ that Meta later removed for impersonation. theverge.com/ai-artificial-… variety.com/2026/film/news… mashable.com/tech/mia-goth-…

The PS5 got jailbroken and within less than a week people got PS2/PS3 physical discs working on PS5. Years of them lying to us about how impossible it would be, debunked in less than a week.
