While US style resume does not dictate a photo in the CV/resume, it seems to be very common and almost a requirement in CH/EU CV/resumes, in my experience.
Ergo, the traditional bias has only been moved to AI, leaving HR or hiring managers ‘non-culpable’, aka ‘get out of jail’ card … The age old response ‘it’s the system’ is back from the cold …
Just my humble opinion …
One just needs to call up an AI to improve one’s photo
“make my profile pic get a top score for conscientiousness for the Photo Big 5”
The pic will still be me, only with a facial expression I’d never have in real life.
Heck,I would never ever project this optimism and confidence, but look again, it’s me haha
AI modified mugshot would be recognized by AI, no? Then what category would that be evaluated as, by AI? HR?
Slave to the machine is taking a whole other meaning? in that sense, I’m glad i’m not that young any more …
The use of AI reveals a lack of conscientiousness on HR’s side. So, no prob at all. Cheat to your heart’s content.
Would AI care that you were cheating? Would it turn you in, or be complicit?
Probably you could have your AI insert some code in your photo which offers a bribe.
Although I don’t know what one could offer?
Or maybe better would be code with a threat?
An amazing reason not to use ChatGPT
AI will most likely lead to the end of the world, but in the meantime there will be great companies created.

Rule 34:
OpenAI Executive Who Opposed ‘Adult Mode’ Fired for Sexual Discrimination
Members of an advisory council on “well-being and AI” that OpenAI convenes regularly have also expressed opposition to adult mode and urged the company to reconsider plans to launch it, people with knowledge of those discussions said.
OpenAI Chief Executive Sam Altman has defended the move to expand the permissible content on his platform as a part of an effort to “treat adult users like adults.”
Before her firing, Beiermeister told colleagues that she opposed adult mode, and worried it would have harmful effects for users, people familiar with her remarks said.
She also told colleagues that she believed OpenAI’s mechanisms to stop child-exploitation content weren’t effective enough, and that the company couldn’t sufficiently wall off adult content from teens, the people said.
She is one of several employees within OpenAI who have expressed concerns about the launch of adult mode, people familiar with the matter said.
It’s a bit crazy that the same guy is financing research on nuclear fusion…only to power a p0rn making machine.
Ahhh, this is catnip, errr…cold beer for me.
A mix of history, pop culture, witty jokes and a pessimist vibe.
The Super Bowl has something for everyone. For sports fans, there’s the game itself. For music fans, there’s the halftime show. And for speculative bubble fans, there’s the TV ads. This year, we saw 15 ads featuring AI-related services, including ads from both Anthropic and OpenAI.[1] This advertising wave is consistent with a brewing AI bubble.
Let’s look at two prior waves of ads. First, Super Bowl XXXIV (on January 30, 2000) featured between 14 and 19 internet-related ads, depending on how you count. It thus earned the nickname “the Dot-Com Bowl.” Advertisers included Pets.com with its sock puppet, as well as E*Trade with three different ads. Eleven days later, Pets.com had its IPO. The stock market subsequently peaked on March 10, 2000, and Pets.com shut down in November 2000.
Second, Super Bowl LVI (February 13, 2022) prominently featured crypto ads, and was similarly dubbed “the Crypto Bowl.” Crypto advertisements included the now infamous FTX ad featuring Larry David. Nine months after the Crypto Bowl, crypto prices had collapsed and FTX’s founder, Sam Bankman-Fried, was in handcuffs.
I’d never heard of AI.com and Genspark, two of this year’s advertisers. AI.com’s founder is also a co-founder of Crypto.com, one of the Crypto Bowl advertisers in 2022. Crypto.com’s ad featured LeBron James and the slogan “Fortune favors the brave.” Unfortunately for crypto investors, in the period after February 2022, fortune actually favored the prudent.[7] Genspark’s ad featured Matthew Broderick and a reference to Ferris Bueller’s Day Off (1986). This ad didn’t work for me, as I was reminded of Broderick’s role in WarGames (1983), where a rogue AI nearly triggers nuclear war.
On the surface, Super Bowl LX was a battle between the Patriots and the Seahawks. But on a different level, it was a battle between Anthropic and OpenAI. Here’s PitchBook:[8]
The two largest AI startups duking it out during America’s most-watched cultural event of the year signals a new phase in the battle for dominance: the fight for mindshare and legitimacy as both prepare for massive IPOs.
Once again, today’s stock market resembles 1999/2000. If the wave of AI ads at the Super Bowl is followed by a wave of AI IPOs later this year, watch out.
Anyone know of Clawdbot? Have you happened to install it?
https://medium.com/vibe-coding-chronicles/clawdbot-is-amazing-dont-install-it-3ed70031ae2e
How about Molthub? Or Moltbook?
Perhaps we humans should recall that we once domesticated cats?
Clawdbot (now OpenClaw) is powerful but a security nightmare. Also a large proportion of the posts on Moltbook are special botphishing posts designed to trick Clawdbot into giving up data e.g. bitcoin keys etc.
And here it comes. Email from OpenAI today:
We wanted to let you know that we’re updating our Privacy Policy to give you more information about what data we collect, how we use it, and how you can control it.
Here’s what’s changing:

Sooooo. AI is beginning to train the monkeys.
All legit and legal I hope?
Have gun, will travel.
Just joking, it’s only this feeling of having some disorganized ideas and someone else is able to put them together coherently. I full agree with this. AI is not the Manhattan Project, and even the atom bomb was not an insurmountable advantage over everyone else. It’s always possible to catch up and overtake.
When AGI is discussed in China, it doesn’t have the winner-take-all framing that it tends to have in the US. In US discussions, especially around military power, there’s often a worry that whichever nation achieves AGI first will have an insurmountable advantage over everyone else. In China, there seems to be a view that even if the US reaches AGI first, China can quickly catch up and even overtake it.
Yes, yes and yes. There’s no reason to succumb to FOMO (fear of missing out). AOL, Yahoo, Prodigy, Compuserve…all pioneers and so what?
Nobody “won” the internet. Instead, the question was: who can make the most of this new technology over the long run? While China may see AI as more significant than previous technologies, Beijing’s approach to AI lines up with a longer pattern of trying to harness new cross-cutting technologies through a broader process of economic and social transformation: “informatization”, “digitization”, and “intelligentization".
The people who first achieve whatever milestone can enjoy their reputation and internet popularity points. But, the superpower of the rest of the world is catching up and overtaking.
Interesting new paper on failures in reasoning. If they succeed in fixing these, we’re toast.
