It's basically the same as his previous cartoon, although not as obsessed with unnecessarily dropping intellectual references.

I've honestly been seeing a few Ralls lately that I don't think are terrible. They're self-indulgent and smug, as they've always been, but I can't say he's getting lazier with time, unlike most cartoonists.

Yeah, the joke is that the LLM stuff *is* racist because it's trained on data made from humans, who are racist. The kludgey fix was that they'll take in prompts and then add in random diverse keywords to force it to be less racist, but that's an obvious hack and it leads to all sorts of obviously dumb results

But it's better than before, where you'd get it spitting out stuff like if you put "criminal" it would make everyone black

Edit: I mean "the joke" as in the broader sense, obviously Branco is too stupid to know what a joke even is

Today, let’s leave behind the dismal headlines on this planet and take a run up to the moon, where the news is happier — or at least funnier.

Lunar probes from both Japan and the United States have in recent days landed on Earth’s barren satellite to gather scientific data. The landers are the latest sign that we earthlings are resuming lunar exploration after a half century of neglect following the end of the U.S. Apollo program that put the first humans on the moon.

That is the happy news. The funny part is that the Japanese lander is stuck upside down in the lunar dust, while the American lander is resting on its side. It is a new beginning, but a less-than-auspicious one.

The two mishaps show how very far we still are from the fictional worlds of “Star Wars” and “Star Trek,” where intrepid space travelers in the distant future, or in a galaxy far, far away, zip around from planet to planet like it is a drive to the shopping mall. Compared to those dashing adventurers, we seem to still be not all that advanced beyond the stick-tossing primates in the opening scenes of “2001: A Space Odyssey.”

The one person who is currently pushing humanity most urgently toward the stars is Earth’s richest man, Elon Musk, whose SpaceX company has developed the first rockets that can shoot into near space and then return to terra firma and make a precise landing. Musk is eager to get to Mars before he dies because the gazillionaire firmly believes the only hope for preserving human consciousness in the universe is to find people a new planet.

Musk is convinced of this, in part, because he fears artificial intelligence will very soon become all-powerful and inclined to exterminate homo sapiens. He might be right about AI. (If so, why is he helping bring it to life?) But salvation may not lie on the Red Planet.

As my favorite caustic, contrarian comedian, Bill Maher, has noted more than once, Mars is not our kind of place. The thin Martian atmosphere consists mostly of carbon dioxide. If that doesn’t kill you, the extreme range of temperatures will. There are no animals, no birds, no fish, no dolphins. There are no lakes or oceans, no apple trees or grass or blueberry bushes. Mars is Death Valley without air to breathe.

Musk and other alleged geniuses insist that, over time, human settlers on Mars will develop ways to cope with all of that. Nevertheless, I wonder if human consciousness is worth preserving if we stupidly screw up this lovely planet so badly that we have no survival option left other than escape into the frigid void of space.

This is a solid, I dunno, 7/10 gag for a politoon, but to well actually it: a chicken egg isn't an embryo.

In principle an chicken's egg could contain an embryo. That would be in addition to the yolk and white that's actually pictured there. It would be a little embryo-lookin' thing attached to the side of the yolk. But the eggs you get from the store aren't fertilised so won't.

Just gently caress off.

There's definitely an element of "I suffered so you should suffer too otherwise it's not fair to me" but the argument they usually go for is "well I'll have to pay for YOUR thing via taxes now". Which is at least consistent with their childish libertarian philosophy. I think the cartoon is both.
