  • Technology has so greatly and so significantly outpaced the law for so long now, that we may never recover from unregulated tech bro shit from my youth, and now that I’m old enough to have school aged kids, it has only gotten exponentially worse.

    • “AI school?” A technological horror beyond comprehension
    • “65k annual tuition?” For ChatGPT school? ChatGPT is FREE, you freakazoids
    • “Our little Xyler graduated AI kindergarten with a 5.0 GPA and a Doctorate in brain surgery?” Please let there be a god and let him be vengeful I need to know that there will someday be an end to all this


  • Welcome to discourse in a post-truth society. Reality doesn’t matter anymore; news agencies can just make shit up, and even the comments on the fake articles are fake.

    Rail against it, until it’s the only thing you ever do. A single bot can still post a thousand times more, and on a thousand different accounts, and on a thousand different platforms. Just one of them can formulate fake ideas and then fake arguments with itself that enfold like a fractal, and there is an effectively infinite number of them.

    Kessler Syndrome is happening before our very eyes, only on a much more local scale.

  • What AI democratizes in art, is the perception of skill.

    I was a professional artist for many years, and often noted a strong preference for photo-realistic art among non-artists, often to the exclusion of any other style or aesthetic. The people around me who tried to draw or paint or sculpt, even just one time, often had an appreciation for a more diverse array of approaches and media.

    To me, most AI ‘art’ feels like the product of ‘artists’ who don’t even really like art.
