"So it's not that LLMs are right due to some sort of arbitrage that generates and exploits symbolic differences, but that structuralism was wrong about value appearing strictly via circulation. That's arbitrage theory; it's just not empirically valid." Great piece by @galloway.bsky.social

In Capital vol. 3, Marx writes that he wants to examine capitalism in its "idealen Durchschnitt." This is usually translated as "ideal average," but I believe a more accurate translation would be "ideal cross-section." I think this is a geological metaphor rather than a mathematical one. 1/5
