I've written a little essay on the Holy Spirit and the epistemic crisis we find ourselves in. Don't worry, I haven't gone Christian. But noticing that even the delusions of religion are at this point epistemologically more valid than many big institutions should worry atheists and theists equally.

Goddamn, @edzitron.com . I was just vaping when I came to your "they call him clamuel" line and started laughing so hard that you made me actually almost lose consciousness because I fell into a coughing fit. Seriously not sure whether to say well done or be upset, but jesus.

That the world‘s most valuable people consistently don’t know shit about fuck seems rather odd at first. However, I do have a pet theory in this regard. If you‘d like to hear it it’s over on Substack.

Every ai booster believes that college is about doing homework. They think there’s a homework goblin that pays the colleges for their homework. Their dream is that they can have a machine that you can pay $75,000 to and receive a college degree from in four years.

COULD be interesting for planning , which is what it’s meant for after all. But seeing at what places they decided to NOT GO into specifics makes me also think it’s really an AI Booster study with window dressing. Which would make sense looking at the authors.

Ged Sperber @gedsperber.bsky.social · 01/12/2025

I do, but I still really appreciate the reference and seeing that this has obviously been a topic for some time. I mean, it really does make sense and it also makes sense to have a look at this specifically. To some extent I would even say that the Iceberg model if applied correctly

Thanks for the reference. "A novel methodology." (i.e. "We ask people: u use computa?")

Ged Sperber @gedsperber.bsky.social · 30/11/2025

The skillset isn't listed anywhere, I've tried to find it. Also no list of the AI tools that they count. However, seeing how financials and administration are explicitly underscored a couple of times and management of workflows is something that they point out, I would assume that management is

Ged Sperber @gedsperber.bsky.social · 30/11/2025

That doesn't seem to be accurate. They have mapped the entire workforce, that would imply that the C-Suite _is_ mapped as well.

Ged Sperber @gedsperber.bsky.social · 30/11/2025

Damn. I knew that tool but it didn't occur to me that this is of course the implication. Thanks for that.

You may have seen this "MIT study" that allegedly (it really doesn't) claims that 11.7% of the US Workforce can be made obsolete with AI. While it doesn't say that, it's still horseshit. If you want to know why, I've written a short comment.

I've written a short comment regarding this new MIT study that is being passed around and why it is horseshit. "11.7% of US workforce is being replaced by AI" my ass. Thought that might be of interest. Also - thanks for all your work, you are one of the best resources out there.

c) Anthropic lied as a cherry on top. To be clear, as of now we know NONE of these things. (Or at least I don't.) But I would be highly surprised if not at least 2 of the three turn out to be true, still surprised if it isn't all three.

010

Ged Sperber @gedsperber.bsky.social · 15/11/2025

Calling it now: as we learn more about the "Chinese hacking campaign" that Anthropic reportedly stopped, we will learn that a) the extent is inflated in the report b) the state-sponsored will turn out to be a very generous interpretation of the facts

I don't think we can act anymore as if we could criticise media in a vacuum - in order to save critical journalism, we will have to stick up even for fuck ups. I have written a little piece where I try to make a case for this.

As Peter Thiel holds his secretive lectures on the Antichrist, I thought I might expand a little on the notion of belief and faith in psychoanalysis. I think it’s a little too easy to fall into the trap of mistaking religious people for being delusional.

So Social Media Companies are being pressured to put lifetime bans on users that joke about Kirk. Immigrants are being threatened to get their Visa revoked if they make light of the murder. Scary dudes getting out their big boy pants because they are super untriggered I see.

I know everyone and their pet monkey already said something about Charlie Kirk. But please, for the love of god, stop acting as if this was the start of a new fascism. We have long passed that line. It's an expression of fear and it empowers the right without the slightest need to do so.
