Slipping ratings, a revolving door of lead actors, and nothing quite hitting like that old school David Tennant run. It’s dog days for “Doctor Who” fans, whose lives aren’t likely to be made any better by the prospect of AI creeping into the show. #aislop

One of the most heated discussions occurring on X at the moment is about the ethics of a GitHub project in which a person is running Saw-like “torture” and “pain” experiments on a series of locally hosted large language models, causing a series of effective altruists and people who believe LLMs are sentient to beg GitHub to delete the project on the grounds that the AI is suffering and that this glorified text adventure game is somehow cruel. The saga is an outgrowth of several recent viral papers and blog posts that have sparked a wildly tiresome conversation about AI consciousness and the idea of “model welfare,” which is essentially worrying about the “mental health” of AI bots and agents. #AI
