This is right on the line of creepy surveillance and interesting public art project. I kind of like the idea but not a fan of the fact that it's recording in stealth. I wish it were more transparent about it. Most people wouldn't care anyway and it removes some of the discomfort of listening in on a bunch of strangers.

Yep, happened to Arcane Austin. Redfall was a disaster because Bethesda couldn't wrap their heads around the fact that Arcane made (awesome) single player games and not MMOs. Hopefully history won't repeat itself.

A part of me thinks that some of this is deliberate- like once it was clear he was going to have to follow up with the twitter deal the places/people that funded him did so on the condition that he tank it.

I know that's insane but I really am struggling to see how anyone could commit this many public fuckups unintentionally.

It blows my mind to see so many leaders so nonchalant about genocide.

Wow wtf. Their apology doesn't even hint at one of the biggest problems in the question, that people shouldn't be aspiring to become "better" AI-generated versions of themselves. What kind of dick asks people to even consider that?

It also sucks for the hiring manager who has to interview candidates they know they won't hire just to stick to the process. It's a waste of everyone's time.

Hey, you all gave it your best shot, but it looks like it’s a little harder than you thought to run a candidate who won’t be a national fucking disgrace, doesn’t it?” >

It's unfortunate that this rings true to many cities.

From the wiki article :

Perelman resigned from his research post in Steklov Institute of Mathematics and in 2006 stated that he had quit professional mathematics, owing to feeling disappointed over the ethical standards in the field. >

Anybody have any idea what the ethical standards might be that he's referring to? Not sure if there's a scandal or something or just an overall sense of displeasure with the field.

It's hard to believe that Annapurna leadership (and Ellison specifically) are surprised by this. It reads like Ellison is known for backing out of deals or simply not honoring them. Why should the staff believe she would honor a spinoff deal?

Hope the team is able to get something off the ground.

I agree with other replies here with one addition. People who get into grad school are generally the high achievers from their high school and undergrad programs, so they are used to being the only or one of few star students. In PhD programs everyone is a star student, so it can be a bit jarring to folks used to being head of the class when they suddenly aren't.

It can cause a bit of jealousy and competitive thinking but most of the time students get past it and focus simply on enduring the gauntlet.

I know October kind of implies this but I'd add Halloween to this group.

The article doesn't specify, but what kind of 'activity on adult websites' is damaging to the point that a candidate would be pressed to drop out?
