Legally, Practically or Politically?
Paying back tech debt, being able to keep up with treadmills (even slow and smooth ones) is depressingly rare.
I think those are things human consciousness has, not is.
It's not purporting to be an LLM detector. Your 2000s era posts probably do have some sloppy cliches in them.
Also, a lot of the people who hate and resist AI slop also hate and resist corpo slop, we're just outnumbered.
I agree. The pop product is primarily a persona and a brand rather than the art itself (though it can be both), but it's not like that's not ever true of niche artists, it's just packaged differently and on a different…
The issue is that systems don't account for the diversity in how people are motivated and what parts of systems they are sensitive to and how they are sensitive to them. By default in the dominant culture, most systems…
Right, but people with lower incomes spend, and mostly on necessities, I think the idea is that most of those necessities would become more expensive (naturally or artificially due to price-fixing) if the poorest…
Just only ever speak in a language of your own invention that uses both cryptographic and steganographic techniques which you invented while colocated, maybe.
How sure are we that something fishy isn't going on with the models and the alignment research teams and the answers the model is giving? Like maybe Claude's alignment made it worse at trying to mask as Allied…
Ontological version is even more interesting, especially if we're talking about a singularity (which may be in the past rather than future if you believe in simulation argument). Crude form: winning is metaphysically…
I actually do think that people who prefer content of fidelity over content of intent are making a mistake, yes. I don't think they're incapable of thinking, I don't care to apply any virtue labels to this preference,…
As capable as they get, I still don't see a lot of uses for these things, myself, still. Sometimes if I'm fundamentally uninspired I'll have a model roll the dice, decide what I do or don't like about where it went to…
Maybe you need a "why I don't have a banner" banner.
Diversity is good for populations. If you have a tiny pool of individuals with mostly the same traits (in this case I mean things like culture, education, morality, ethics, rather than class and race - though there are…
Yeah, some of the failure modes are the same. This one in particular is fun because even a human, given "the the the" and asked to predict what's next will probably still answer "the". How a Markov chain starts the the…
This is only socially and "practically" true, not literally or inevitably or technically (or in my opinion, actual-practically) so. One of the things we need to accept as social animals is that there are a lot of…
I do argue that, actually. I mostly avoid manufactured corpo-pop.
Not inherently. Politics is inherently about policy, the consensus mechanism involved is undefined. The fact it's been degraded into a carnival of moralistic cultural violence and individuals and their virtues, charisma…
I caught my mom watching a bunch of AI impersonations of musicians on Youtube singing slop that rarely rhymed or had any kind of message in the lyrics and with super formulaic arrangements. I asked her what she liked…
System thinking please. Can every person in poverty become IT employed? Start a landscaping business? If they did would that likely cause a whole brand new set of problems? What jobs are these people currently doing?…
I think the mini PCs they're talking about are more likely to be N100 systems or similar that are sub 100 dollars new. Significantly less anemic, and their hardware media decode (which is well supported by software) is…
In the US my best doctors produce out of date advice about obvious things, have a very distinct gap between "everyday" (stuff they actually see) and "incredibly rare" (stuff unique enough to be a case study they heard…
OP is a privileged take, yes. If you touch grass in poverty spaces, disability spaces, etc., there are a lot of preventable things that could be done or mitigations that could be made that would reduce future costs to…
Yeah, I used to have a few "live wallpaper" type videos I'd use this way. Around the time AVC-ish algorithms were democratized by DivX. IIRC the player I used had #0000A0 as its overlay color... may have even been the…
