Very Greek tragedy thing about LLMs is that they simulataneously provide clear evidence that writing is extremely important to cognition while they also cause people to stop doing it.

not commenting on this discourse but if you’re gonna try and posture using fancy words like “memetically,” consider spelling them correctly

Your culture loves food and family? And you have lots of different opinions on things? Can’t relate. My culture consumes Huel and lives in pods. We all think the same.

really think the only good use case for ai image generation is making hilarious slop memes of charlie kirk. other than that it should probably be banned

The Navier-Stokes fight is a perfect encapsulation of where AI development is right now: this should be really cool and exciting, and instead because of Silicon Valley egos it's become a fight over cheating, surveillance, and companies trying to get one up over the other

Honestly it is primarily "upset because you enjoy plugging yourself into the making-you-upset-machine", and the enjoyment part is important

Some friends are teaching their baby ASL as an early bridge to speech and they made the mistake of teaching her “want” as a concept. Now she wanders around the house signing “want” all the time as an expression of unfocused desire. They fucked up and made the baby invent the opposite of Buddhism.

Long story short, there was a fanfic called “Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality,” things got out of hand, and now Africa doesn’t get AIDS medication. Try not to think too hard about it. It’ll just drive you insane.
