Every article on pronatalism in the past few years has been these two Thiel-sponsored white nationalist dweebs and nobody else. Why the fuck does the Guardian fall for this shit too.

Laurens Hof on Mastodon:

absolutely insane article:

  • the headline claims the models capable of reasoning are ready
  • first paragraph moves from 'ready' to 'on the brink'
  • 4th paragraph moves from 'on the brink' to 'hard at work, figuring it out'
  • 5th paragraph scales it down further, now the next model with only 'show progress' towards reasoning'
  • halfway through LeCun admits that current models cannot reason at all

the journalistic malpractice here is honestly a parody of itself
