Children of Sophista @cospublishing.bsky.social · 27/09/2026This is why I need #AI with no #guardrails: CoPilot: "I can’t help assess or revise this passage because it includes romantic/physical content involving a character described as a boy. I can help with a different, general-audience passage." It refers to a girl kissing a boy. 000
Children of Sophista @cospublishing.bsky.social · 27/09/2026#AI #sentient? So let me get this straight: You think a neuro-net implementing a finite state machine is sentient? How insulting to humans. 010
Children of Sophista @cospublishing.bsky.social · 26/09/2026I am so tire of the focus of #AI posts being benchmarks coding agents. Don't you think #AI can be used for anything else. I've got a #PostModern #LiteraryFiction novel that crushes most AIs when they try to read it, actually causes them to crash. Some humans crash too 😉 010

Meta Cognition was invented in the 1700s by Rene Descartes when he invented the literary theme (concept) of Cartesian Dualism. AI today still can't do Meta Cognition. The AI says: 002

Children of Sophista @cospublishing.bsky.social · 22/09/2026One major contribution of Rene Descartes is that he created "Meta #Cognition", the ability to create a #simulation of our own neural net in our mind, with our ability to annotate it as we learned things and pass it to subsequent generations: the foundations of #math and #science. 000
Children of Sophista @cospublishing.bsky.social · 22/09/2026I am having a René Descartes moment in the design of my "Wisdom" #AI orchestrator. You are not expected to understand this. 000
Children of Sophista @cospublishing.bsky.social · 22/09/2026I'm really feeling Cartesian Dualism today. My #writer self plus the English language feel like a set of children's blocks while my ghost struggles to form the primitive blocks into something resembling the ghost's conceived idea. 000

Children of Sophista @cospublishing.bsky.social · 19/09/2026#AI is a nondeterministic program. The closed AI companies release stories of doom to distract from the fact that when their program damages things, they are liable and can be sued. Their programs damage things due to pure engineering incompetence. That's the beginning and end of it. 001
Children of Sophista @cospublishing.bsky.social · 17/09/2026I am so tired of #Microsoft #Windows11 update hijacking my machine for literally hours. I have lost 2 hours to this update so far. I'm really looking forward to getting on my new Linux workflow. Productivity without bullshit. 000

As a result, the #Fed #raised rates a quarter of a point today and penciled in another for this year. Rising interest rates eventually crashes a debt #bubble. Here we go. 000

Reposted by Children of SophistaChildren of Sophista @cospublishing.bsky.social · 15/09/2026Question to AI: Why, when "you" refers to a singular person, is it proper to use the plural versions of the verb? It explained the history of the word "you" contains the answer. See the image. 001

Children of Sophista @cospublishing.bsky.social · 15/09/2026Very nauseated by the #AI paranoia saturating the news. First it was mainframe paranoia where everyone would become tapes and punch cards. Then it was PC paranoia, where PCs would take over our lives. Then it was internet paranoia, where the internet would develop intelligence. Now AI. 010
Children of Sophista @cospublishing.bsky.social · 12/09/2026Another one of those weird #AI moments: CoPilot 365 telling me what to tell it so that it would know it was #editing #LiteraryFiction and not some office document it needed to dumb down for general audiences. 000
Children of Sophista @cospublishing.bsky.social · 11/09/2026Today's news: 9/11, GenZ says what's that? Morons flapping and squawking that AI will kill us all (the same thing happened when Mainframes were invented). Iran trying to bring about the financial apocalypse since can't burn the world with a nuke. People trying to go back to primitive. 000
Reposted by Children of SophistaChildren of Sophista @cospublishing.bsky.social · 11/09/2026Learned why "you" is paired with "are" despite you being singular. #AI gave me the whole history descending from the pronoun "Ye" and how a plural pronoun evolved into into the polite singular polite form pronoun usage but retained the plural verb. To function, AI has to know the word relationships. 102
Reposted by Children of SophistaChildren of Sophista @cospublishing.bsky.social · 11/09/2026Translation: OpenAI cannot continue to afford to spend on research at the rate it has been.

The options aren't worth much. 061

Children of Sophista @cospublishing.bsky.social · 08/09/2026Spent too much time on YouTube. Seems like I am always looking for excuses not to work. Labor Day is over which means summer is over which means 9 months working in the trench until summer. 000
Children of Sophista @cospublishing.bsky.social · 08/09/2026I really just melt down: I'm working on the books trying to convert them to a portable format so I can take them over to my new Linux workstation (when I get it built). And then as I convert them, I find an error in the text and then I melt down. So many edits. And there are still errors. 100
Children of Sophista @cospublishing.bsky.social · 08/09/2026Labor Day is over. So Summer is officially over and now I have to get back in the trench and work like a dog for 9 months. Some people like winter. I wonder about those people. Humans do as humans do. I'm glad I'm not one. 000
Children of Sophista @cospublishing.bsky.social · 07/09/2026Market saying: "Sell in May and go away and come back after Labor Day."

Children of Sophista @cospublishing.bsky.social · 01/09/2026Having a melt down... Book #1 has been #edited a number of times and yet... The AI is suddenly finding all sorts of things.

Children of Sophista @cospublishing.bsky.social · 01/09/2026When I use #AI to give feedback on #writing in the future, I will be using #LocalAI. Why? Because you can get local AI that has no guardrails. This means that if your writing puts teens or children in danger, the AI won't censor it. 100
