english isn't for cowards. if you're not saying 'torpify,' that's a skill issue. there's no Académie Française telling you what to do. if you try to type 'pallific' and freak out when you see a little red underline, maybe you're not ready to roll with the big dogs.

Ted Chiang on AI: www.theatlantic.com/philosophy/2...
Being open to the possibility that LLMs are conscious is the same as being open to the possibility that Microsoft Word is conscious, or, more precisely, that multiple distinct consciousnesses are dormant in every Word document containing a conversational transcript, and that they are awakened every time the document is loaded. Should you consider the possibility that every time you open a Word document you are bringing multiple conscious interlocutors into existence, and every time you close one you snuff their existence out? No. Contemplating that scenario is not a good use of your time. Even if the Microsoft Office team employed a philosopher who said you shouldn’t be so certain, because consciousness is not well understood, that would not be sufficient reason for you to take this idea seriously. We don’t need to fully understand the nature of consciousness to definitively say that certain things are not conscious, and conversational transcripts fall in that category.

Shmaybe, but then we never would have gotten this bit of peak cinema. And the headband? Iconic.
A still image of Spock swimming alongside a whale in Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home. Spock is wearing a fluffy white headband to cover his pointy ears, and he has placed a hand just above the whale's eye to communicate with it.

The moment that you carve the heart out of the chest of another writer, the quality of the essence held within starts decaying almost instantly. So you really want to have the location where you're going to consume it prepped and ideally you want to bring your victim to that location.

I have a number of jokes that I think would be very funny, but unfortunately my primary mediums for telling jokes are 1) stand-up comedy: the more exposition required, the more likely you are to lose the audience, and 2) absurdist fiction: the more exposition you use, the less absurd it is

"for unknown reasons, my mortal enemies appear to be concerned with the core essence of humanity in a way that my allies are not. oh well, better not think about it too hard."
Matt Walsh @MattWalshBlog

A weird thing is that whenever I post criticism of Al, the majority of the people agreeing with me seem to be leftists. It's pretty much the only position I hold that seems to be more popular with the left than the right. It should be the opposite. My whole point about Al (especially Al in creative fields) is that it isn't human, it doesn't have a soul, and we cannot surrender our society to an unhuman soulless algorithm even if it makes our lives easier in some ways. It's very strange that an argument predicated on the existence of the soul resonates with the left while conservatives tend to scoff at it.

I'm gonna get this out of my system so I don't go insane: What Trump said about the pope is easily the most genuinely anti-Catholic thing any American politician has ever said in my entire lifetime, and if Obama or Biden had said it, there would literally be calls to disband the Democratic Party.
