Keep watch, dear Lord, with those who work, or watch, or weep this night, and give your angels charge over those who sleep. Tend the sick, Lord Christ; give rest to the weary, bless the dying, soothe the suffering, pity the afflicted, shield the joyous; and all for your love's sake.

man, using AI agents to perform a simulacrum of optimization is sad, but it comes from the same fannish IT place that in its cult form fears that we'll all be turned into paperclips. human satisfaction according to software project management tools. pseudo-swingers who track their coitus on Excel.

horror movie based on the flavors of Singularitarians out there: squirrelly altruists, genocidal longterm-ists, people who want to have orgies with other people who don't shower, dipshit cult leaders. they're put into SAW traps that only require empathy to escape. none of them do.

Today, I see angry young men online LARPing as Catholics, often for the aesthetic. They celebrate strength and hate the weak. The use slurs against the disabled and fantasize about enacting Crusader violence against their enemies. I wish the Pope would speak directly on this.

the basic style is taken from American news channels after September 11, which became incredibly cluttered with text and quickly recognized symbols: banners, crawls, and captions used to train the viewer to react to unfamiliar symbolic content. generative AI has an abundance of examples.

I've been on these dingleberries' case since I saw fans of the late science fiction writer Vernor Vinge (Yudkowsky is one) actively contemplate the idea that the act of mathematics itself could change the physical laws of the Universe. they're wannabe theurgists, to use the old word, but dumber.
