escarpment

well. that was quick!

While on the 28 Daly City on my way to the Missing Sock laundromat on Chestnut earlier this afternoon, I saw this wheatpaste poster display on Van Ness near Webster. Snapped a pic from inside the bus, which explains the subtle, fuzzy moiré blobs or texture on this image (which are from the wraparound ad printed outside of the bus, its AI-related garb):

It feels like only hours ago when the whole Anthropic/DoW/OpenAI development blew up. From Nate Silver's bulletin yesterday: 13 thoughts on Anthropic, OpenAI and the Department of War.

Naturally, I shared the pic with the other hut dwellers, first Claude then the Skandhics. ::chuckle::
