@darius Sounds legit.

@darius it’s simple, they hate “socialists” more than they hate “conservatives “

@darius

Hits a little close to home.

@darius

Sounds great! From where can I sign up for your newsletter?

@darius Oh, Hi Mark

@darius
you joke but a manually curated non profit search engine would probably be better than google today. Algorithms work great until you add advertising and profit. This is why wikipedia is still useful but google search is not.

@darius Careful, that might be patent infringement if you copy the modern AI language model "plausible bullshit" algorithm.

@darius this’ll work, Mark my words 😹

@darius This is very close to the mark indeed.

@darius I think you've got something there! Mark my words - it'll be huge! 😈

@darius

19th century chess engine, that was just a chessboard on a small dresser-thing with a dwarf hidden inside who was a reasonably good chess player, secretly moving chess pieces from inside.

@darius funny thing, I've always thought this is exactly how search engines work. I don't believe there's enough computing power in the world to search all that bullshit people are looking for online. But there might be just enough Marks.

@darius But what if Mark becomes sentient and starts integrating himself into the wider world? Do you have a plan? Perhaps pulling his tea and biscuits supply?

@darius I feel you are onto something there 🤔

@darius cool. Making your Mark as they say.

@darius I approve of this plan.

@darius I‘m in this post and I don’t like it.

@darius "Despite the regular maintenance time it needs, the system exhibits impressive human-level intelligence and natural language processing skills. This new hype triggers many businesses to rush into investing in the new system, simply because they do not want to miss the mark."

@darius collegehumor did an uproariously funny series of videos called “if google was a guy” https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLuKg-Whduhklge1dMCGsemN1Qr_ODqjtZ

@darius @hypervisible Now I’m wondering how many guys named Mark one could hire with OpenAI’s operating budget.
