Hmmm, lots of people disputing it on there.
Not to say it isn't necessarily untrue, but some guy on twitter saying "my friend says so" isn't very convincing. Bigly if true though!

There's a pdf here if anyone else is interested:

Yeah all that criticism doesn't go into any detail about actual methodological flaws or issues with the results... It just complains about language and is pretty sanctimonious for such weak and generic citations. Like, those are the sort of citations I'd give as an undergrad and trying to pad a paper to make it seem more authoritative and well established than it is lol.
Were any of the criticisms NOT centered around their irresponsible use of language and about the actual methodology and results? How they cultured different neurons to play pong is pretty amazing by itself to me.

Come on, give examples please don't leave me hanging! I think the Mafia are sick fucks, but lots of governments have been too. No shortage of violence in this pit of animals on this stupid space rock.
But thousands of times more gruesome than that!? That's wild. I've watched Cartel vids where they slice open and expose the vocal cords laterally as their victims wail, creating otherworldly sounds.
But that's like... MAYBE 0.5x as gruesome as torturing some poor helpless child or tossing infant into a barrel of acid. So if you've got stuff that's 1000x as gruesome, I can't even comprehend! Please post.

As the premier Ivy League authority on the inner-workings of Cartels, I can definitively say that our illustrious Ivy League institutions only happen to appear like a Cartel to the very, very stupid and uneducated (eg. People who couldn't attend).
It is quite an amazing psycho-social phenomena, inextricably linked to a low SES and impoverished social capital; I hope to secure a grant to make my PhD students shit out a bunch of papers with my name on it soon.
Don't worry, all the confounding variables have been accounted for. We can't release any raw data though, so sorry but it's to protect confidentiality. Could we reasonably anonymize the data? Oh nooooo, I'm so sorry you're breaking u --

Wow, I am so sorry...
It must be really difficult living in an area of the world where the Government tortures your child, dismembers them with a chainsaw, and dissolves them in a barrel of acid if you don't pay your taxes.

Man... I just find neural connectomes so depressing.
It's like looking at the copper wiring on the motherboard, or the pins of the CPU, when what you really want is the logic from the networked gates (transistors).
Yet it seems we are many, many decades away from being able to extract that in any comprehensible or definitive way.
I need to stop reading neuroscience articles. There's always big proclamations, Like "the neural circuitry behind arithmetic has been discovered!" then you dig into the meat and it's mostly guesswork and hypothesis based on correlated activity and connectivity, no logic to be seen.
This paper did blow my mind though, I hope to see more creative stuff like it:

Oh... then was chatGPT used to come up with the idea?
I just don't understand why it would be on the front page without AI??

Yeah I don't get any either. I also don't think they're selling your data (or if they are, they're very bad at it) because my targeted ads don't reflect my activity on their OS...
Unlike my android phone. My youtube ads change noticeably in response to whatever I've recently googled, it's very unsettling how dialed in they are.
My daily driver is Linux though. I do agree that's what you should be using if you want to be free of these dystopian shenanigans.

I have a question about Siri that I don't want to risk testing...
If you tell her "OH FUCK SIRI THERES SOMEONE IN THE HOUSE CALL 911 OH SHIIIIT!!!!"
Will siri use her chastizing tone not to speak to her that way and ignore you?
I feel like it would be hillarious if she did. She's also dumb as a bag of rocks in my experience so I suspect she would. Bitch can't even reliably play podcasts.

Yeah you can google it, it's a real program that Alexa will notify you of sometimes (if you're in a participating region), just like the other ads, sorry, "reminders" it serves.
They're citing "their friend" and posting other stuff from the daily mail. Like... No.
