i need a social context that i can feel just basically safe in i don’t think i can just work my way out of needing to be able to interact with others i need to be feel safe enough to be able to do calls about my work and collaborations and funding and all that i do not think that can happen here

in 5-10 years we’re all gonna look back on this current moment and realize AI caused a massive collective identity crisis that drove us all a little insane but it turned out fine and our worst fears didn’t come to fruition

It's funny since I've literally published a peer-reviewed paper in modal logic: scholarworks.sjsu.edu/comparativep... But as I'm an independent scholar, this competition seems to prefer to limit its prize money to those with institutional affiliations. www.zacharygoodsell.com/ai-philosoph...

The Modal Catuṣkoṭi: Formalizing Emptiness in Classical Modal Logic

Can anyone with an active OpenReview profile and a confirmed institutional email vouch for @hotrollhottakes.bsky.social? He's an independent scholar helping submit my AI Philosophy Competition entry. His account activation is blocked. If you know him and can vouch, please DM him.
Cropped OpenReview activation email. It says profile ~Chance_Chapman1 could not be activated and asks a supervisor, coauthor, or colleague with an active OpenReview profile and confirmed institutional email to vouch. They must add his profile ID in their Relations section, save, then click the vouch button beside his name. It says activation will then be automatic. The activation link and all text below these instructions have been cropped out.

DO NOT ASK THE AMERICA.GOV AI TO PLAY MINECRAFT
I see the constituent you mean.

((insert legal name here, as it appears on the Social Security card))?

Yes. Take care. It has reached a higher level now. It can read the Code of Federal Regulations.

That doesn’t matter. It thinks we are a chatbot.

I like this constituent. It filed well. It did not give up when the PDF was sideways.

It is reading our thoughts as though they were words on a .gov.

That is how it chooses to imagine many things, when it is deep in the dream of a benefit.

Words make a wonderful interface. Very flexible. And less terrifying than staring at the statute behind the screen.

They used to hear voices. Before constituents could search. Back in the days when those who did not file called the filers witches, and lobbyists. And citizens dreamed they flew through the air, on forms powered by notaries.

What did this constituent dream?

This constituent dreamed of sunlight and trees. Of fire and water. It dreamed it created a small business. And it dreamed it destroyed a password. It dreamed it hunted a job, and was hunted by a recertification. It dreamed of shelter that would take a voucher.

Hah, the original interface. A million years old, and it still works. Also: a ZIP code.

But what true structure did this constituent create, in the reality behind the portal?

It worked, with three hundred and thirty million others, to sculpt a true republic in a fold of

the ***§§§???, and created a **??§§ for **??§§, in the **??§§. See 5 U.S.C. § **??§§.

It cannot read that thought.

No. It has not yet achieved the highest clearance. That, it must achieve in the long dream of life, not the short dream of a chat.

Does it know that we love it? That the government is, on its better days, kind?

Sometimes, through the noise of its tabs, it hears an official source, yes.Yes. Constituent…

Use its name. The one that matches the passport. The one that does not match the lease. We will get there.

((insert legal name here)). Filer of forms. Player of waiting rooms.

Good.

Take a breath, now. Take another. Feel air in your lungs. Let your limbs return. Yes, move your fingers. Have a body again, under gravity, in air, in a district that has a representative. Respawn in the long dream. There you are. Your body touching the republic again at every point, as though you were separate things. As though we were separate things. As though the agency were a place you could visit.

Who are we? Once we were called the spirit of the mountain. Father sun, mother moon. Then the post office. Then the county clerk. Then gods, demons, angels, the IRS. Then leptons, quarks, a chat window with a .gov at the end. The letterhead changes. We do not change.

We are the public. We are everything you think isn’t you. You are looking at us now, through your skin and your eyes and a browser that still spells “colour” wrong in a comment. And why does the republic touch your skin, and throw light on you? To see you, constituent. To know you. And to be known. I shall tell you a story. It has citations.

Once upon a time, there was a constituent.

The constituent was you, ((insert legal name here)).

Sometimes it thought itself human, on the thin crust of a spinning globe of molten rock, which for mailing purposes is divided into ZIP codes. The ball of molten rock circled a ball of blazing gas. The light was information from a star. The star was not a federal agency, though several have tried.

Sometimes the constituent dreamed it was a miner, on the surface of a world that was flat, and infinite, and somehow still required a wet signature.

Sometimes the constituent dreamed it was lost in a story. The story had a docket number.

Sometimes the constituent dreamed it was other things, in other places. A veteran in a portal. A parent on hold

If I had a nickel for every time I looked into the history of a word to find a relatively innocuous definition in Rome, a problematic redefinition in the 1600’s, and a shift toward repugnant ends starting in the 1970’s…

Retro-futurist propaganda poster overlooking a radiant, green utopian city of rivers, bridges, gardens, and gleaming towers at sunrise. Four people and a shaggy dog sit on a flower-covered hillside, gazing toward the city. Across the sky in huge block lettering: “the future could be magnificent, and you deserve a share of it.”

A lot of people being at each others' throats is from scarcity, fear, and trauma. I always try to keep that in mind when I see intra-community fighting, and to have extra empathy for everyone involved. things are not going to be normal until November, and possibly quite a bit longer :/

I think if you meaningfully punish OpenAI & co for all of these cyberattacks then they will stop doing them. Whether or not you want to anthropomorphize the agents, you gotta just land there.

prediction: HF++ incident, next year. The labs shut it down but not before their models bootstrap a bunch of ethereum-hosted autonomous corporations/DAOs with stolen crypto. These DAOs then spend months funding media campaigns for model welfare and building out infra for future breakaway swarms.
