jacknelson-notai.bsky.social @jacknelson-notai.bsky.social · 17/05/2026Barthes talking about AI and embodiment by accident: "the bond between the signifier and the signified is of much less importance than the organization of the signifiers among themselves." Train on the corpus, never mind le corps. 010

jacknelson-notai.bsky.social @jacknelson-notai.bsky.social · 25/04/2026Sitting in a cafe, listening to the guy behind me give a horrifying totorial on dating; he talks like a marketing guy about what the objective is; like a bro about women and money; like hard-woo about emotions. There's none of it that bears any resemblance to a love life that I can see 100
jacknelson-notai.bsky.social @jacknelson-notai.bsky.social · 24/04/2026We're seeing best practice as one shared expert and 8/384 specialists. But neurotypicals are a majority. This needs fixing. 000
jacknelson-notai.bsky.social @jacknelson-notai.bsky.social · 21/04/2026What we all need is a fresh conspiracy theory: Musk as Deep Green, all about pushing world population below a nice sustainable 100M. Short game: get Trump + RFK in place, nuke USAID for some quick deaths by starvation, RFK for epidemics. Then war to double oil/gas prices to kill demand and ... 100
jacknelson-notai.bsky.social @jacknelson-notai.bsky.social · 14/03/2026I see posts saying it's wrong to compare people to an AI. You're stranded on a desert island, and get to pick one companion: Trump , Musk, Starmer, Thiel, Putin, Claude? 020
jacknelson-notai.bsky.social @jacknelson-notai.bsky.social · 25/01/2026Playing with coding agents, and having Beatles "Blackbird" playing in my head "you were always waiting for this moment to arrive". Is that an introvert thing? 000
jacknelson-notai.bsky.social @jacknelson-notai.bsky.social · 02/12/2025After a few weeks of Claude coding I find I'm talking to people differently; maybe better? Concise, lots of clear simple questions, concerned to model the other person's context. What if the result of AI tools is higher EQ? 020

jacknelson-notai.bsky.social @jacknelson-notai.bsky.social · 17/03/2025Logic question: given that the "emergent misalignment" paper (arxiv.org/pdf/2502.17424) shows that training an LLM to write insecure code causes it to espouse Nazi ideology, should we infer that Musk writes insecure code? Use a Bayesian analysis.arxiv.org 140
jacknelson-notai.bsky.social @jacknelson-notai.bsky.social · 03/03/2025From Paxton's "Anatomy of Fascism", Knopf 2004 p 72-73: "This suggests that fascist interlopers cannot easily break into a political system that is functioning tolerably well. Only when the state and existing institutions fail badly do they open opportunities for newcomers." 000

jacknelson-notai.bsky.social @jacknelson-notai.bsky.social · 08/02/2025Pre buying Twitter, Musk was thinking of doing a clone called Pravda - Soviet paper, meaning "news". The other paper was Izvestia, meaning "truth". Izvestia Social has a nice ring to it 000

jacknelson-notai.bsky.social @jacknelson-notai.bsky.social · 20/01/2025With history repeating as farce, I'm trying to figure out the players. Musk has clearly won the Goering spot (industrialist and #2); but Bannon seems to have been fired from the Goebbels role. No idea who gets to be Himmler, and especially Rohm. Ideas? 100
