How is it these credulous fools have so much money? Or do they know they're full of shit?

We do know that they are not conscious. There is literally zero reason to believe they are. ZERO.

How is it possible that elected officials still don't know what socialism is. Why the fuck do I give a damn considering the rest of the shit show?

Whatever. Vote for the better candidate. You're otherwise harming yourself and people you love in the long run. I'll take humiliation and a chance at a better future for everyone.

President Obama wasn't pro gay marriage, electing him didn't cement that stance nationally. Vote for the better candidate every time. It adds up.

Whatever, just vote. Vote for the better option every time.

You definitely want Annie Andrews to beat Darlene Graham. Those are your options. I'm trans. I hate it. This timeline is shit. It hurts, it sucks. All of those things. Hate me, call me whatever you want, but you want Andrews over Graham, and one of them is taking the seat.

Fair? I guess? But most people don't have that literacy, and there are legions of deadbeats who will read that screenshot as advice, so MAYBE us super smart people who know this is engagement bait can step back and just let good people make the case for reading to one's own children.

Not really a dilemma, just don't use the slop machines, for any reason, ever. Just don't. It's the easiest thing in the world. You have abilities? It won't augment them. It'll say things that make you feel good if you're the simple sort, and it will waste your time.

ClairelyDeranged @aharmlesspie.bsky.social · 08/10/2026

Why do y'all have to misrepresent everything? Heads up, anyone coming in here, it reeks of bullshit.

Give me your life if these are the problems that motivate you to complain to strangers.

ClairelyDeranged @aharmlesspie.bsky.social · 08/10/2026

You've been doing it all your life with "Mr., Ms., Mrs." Did you ever complain about those? Those were important to previous generations as pronouns seem to be for a lot of people today. This is an issue because someone else is telling you it's an issue, not because it's harming you in any way.

ClairelyDeranged @aharmlesspie.bsky.social · 08/10/2026

In person? You see this friction in person, everywhere? I call bullshit. There aren't enough of us for us to by chance appear in your life in an inconveniencing way on a daily basis. Of course the media is fashioning that false reality out of blatant propaganda. Is that maybe what you're seeing?

ClairelyDeranged @aharmlesspie.bsky.social · 08/10/2026

The only place this situation happens as consistently as you people believe it does is in your imaginations.

ClairelyDeranged @aharmlesspie.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

I don't think there's only one route. I just listed off some other routes. Nothing as in: there is no thing about an LLM that is like any part of a human.

ClairelyDeranged @aharmlesspie.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

There's literally no reasoning, that's marketing bullshit. Also, don't post "AI" slop at me.

ClairelyDeranged @aharmlesspie.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

No, that is exactly what I'm not doing. There is nothing magical about literally anything that exists. Consciousness seems to have aroused in other living creatures like elephants, cetaceans, possibly octopi. But LLMs are nothing like us or any of those creatures.

100

ClairelyDeranged @aharmlesspie.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

It is possible. You're living proof. These LLMs are just statistical tricks with word frequency and correlation in human media. That's why you can be tricked, because only humans used to produce what comes out of LLMs. It's old tech applied in a new and devious way.

ClairelyDeranged @aharmlesspie.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

Y'all sure are eager to evaluate me. Where is this attitude for the "AI" companies? They're making the claim. You seem to be on board. I'm the skeptic of their claims, as you should be.

ClairelyDeranged @aharmlesspie.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

These are just old men yelling at clouds, mad that they have to treat others the way others want to be treated or risk not being particularly liked. Change is hard!

ClairelyDeranged @aharmlesspie.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

I'm on board with organized matter having consciousness. I am that, that is me. But I don't think you can find consciousness lurking between the lines of everything humanity has written down. You're all being taken in by a parlor trick.

Why should you get to be an asshole but we can't?

Oh? Are the trans rights activists in the room with you now?

ClairelyDeranged @aharmlesspie.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

Their claims are baseless. Did you go to them and ask for sources? No. You came to a random stranger on the internet. Get real.

ClairelyDeranged @aharmlesspie.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

Not trying to prove a negative, stranger. Ask these companies for a source that their little toy is on its way to being a real boy.

Now that I've seen the clip, I think it's worded poorly enough that folks can get away with either interpretation. It's on him to speak clearly and make what he means known, not on us to correctly interpret by chance alone.

Billionaires are pulling all the stops to shut tight the eyes of humanity. They're spending untold, literally until sums of money to stop us all from seeing something they've done. What are they hiding? What are they willing to destroy the world to hide?

The class action suits against the oil companies, should we manage to break our government's unending devotion to them, are going to be massive. It'll only happen when renewables beat oil in every way, but that time is coming. Wish we could start sooner though!

matt garman is trying to make datacenters not seem like a big deal. matt is a liar, but that is only a small drop in the depths of matt's immorality. Fuck you matt, and I hope every datacenter project, especially the ones with which you're involved, burns to the fucking ground. tinyurl.com/y62vvjwk

"AI" is already not cost effective, but imagine how much less cost effective it would be if all these billionaires had to pay for armed guards at every datacenter. That would be wacky. Just thinking out loud for a story I'm writing, wink.

If there was a snowballs chance in hell that the checks would be sent, it would STILL not be socialism. This is bribery, lawlessness, corruption.

Before you get to any of this, you've got to explain how consciousness could arise from statistical correlations in human media. There doesn't appear to be any reason to think that. We're "safe" for decades because that's no path to whatever it is we're calling consciousness.

People will never learn the lessons they need to learn if you stand between them and consequences. I know it's hard in this case, because those consequences are farther reaching than the truckers themselves.

We need trust busting yesterday. That the paramount merger was allowed to go forward in a world that looks like ours is worse than criminal, it's deeply immoral. Under no circumstance should david ellison be in charge of shaping mud into a pie, let alone culture at large.

ClairelyDeranged @aharmlesspie.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

No tech today is even the beginning of such a possibility, and we'll all be long dead, long long long dead, before that beginning comes to pass. We're still feeling around in the dark. We need a humanity that's willing to turn on the lights before we can even get started on conscious machines.

ClairelyDeranged @aharmlesspie.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

It would be surprising to find that consciousness could arise from statistical correlations in media produced by humans. We have no reason to think that. The only consciousness we know exists is our own, and that arises from systems MASSIVELY more complex than all datacenters combined.

ClairelyDeranged @aharmlesspie.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

It doesn't think. Outside that, whatever kind of data you build it with will have statistical correlations, and it will output responses to "encrypted" in "encrypted" based on those correlations.

chris rufo is a clownish moron, and the only thing his success at altering discourse proves is that there are too many clownish morons in this country. If anyone needs to be kicked out, it's them.

And this will be adjusted down too, just remember that. Not one number in any domain coming out of this administration can be trusted. Imagine a worse number than any they supply, and you can be certain that the real number is farther in that direction.
