I too, am baffled by the violence of resistance to oppression. They should really just sit there and take it, that way they can be the perfect victims I desire (though not, I hasten to add, from the other side)

Reading the news, it would be easy to believe that the Green Party has adopted a policy to expel its Jewish members, prevent them from attending synagogue or at the very least scrutinise their activities outside the party. *None of that has happened* 🧵

The other 4 drawings from this suite of 8. In a 9-square grid, 8 outer squares each have a relationship with both the outside of the grid and the center square, while the center square’s relationship with the outside of the grid is mediated by the 8 outer squares.

Excellent post with specific ideas for taking action. "an entire generation has grown up not realizing how extreme it is that their very language is being chosen for them by platforms run by people who hate that generation’s ability to express itself, and who hate the things it has to say."

Zionism isn't doing it. People are doing it in the name of Zionism. Do you believe that ideologies are essences that inmhabit some sort of vacuum, forever unchanging things, not inter-connected with human subjects?

Never considered it that way but yeah. Always viewed it as a lazy tropism, condescension ridden rebuke to pie in the sky leftists, bcus ofc what they're doing is serious high-stakes pragmatic real politiking, in reality it's west-wing cosplay.

The kind of anecdote I love. Balanced with the more familiar one of Rauschenberg’s “Erased de Kooning Drawing” (which I did not know was framed by Johns)….
In 1970, the minimalist painter Brice Marden painted a monumental canvas, Three Deliberate Greys for Jasper Johns, and called Johns to ask him if it was OK to use that title. Johns replied: ‘Sure, as long as the greys are deliberate.’

What's going to really annoy me are going to be Americans ignorantly trying to map their ideas about "thermostatic opinion" or whatever to Brazil, ignoring that toxic US-backed fascists own 90% of media in the country and poured dark money into this election.

Either Americans, yes you Americans, regulate corporate social media out of existence or the possibility of any kind of democracy existing anywhere will constantly be under threat and the only viable non-fascist governance will be the Chinese model.

and then the next day, seeing like photos we'd taken of ourselves and others, how messy we were, just completely uninhibited stuff, like we were two different ppl, so they definitely weren't Temazepam, but prob barbs

Might have mentioned this before, but I was chatting to a pal about the time, 20 yrs ago like, were we got some dodgy yellow eggs (benzos or barbs). I thought they were Temazepam, but after taking 2-3 of them and going drinking on new yrs eve and literally mostly blacking out the night -

My theory: More than critiques of circular financing, or of dubious product functionality, "stochastic parrots" undermines the foundation that the entire AI boom is built on: The story that the AI industry is building an unfathomably powerful machine god.

No two words send AI industry advocates into fits of rage more than "stochastic parrots." The question is: Why? Why do they get so worked up over this particular critical framework time and time again? I sat down with @emilymbender.bsky.social, one of the coauthors of the original paper, to discuss

The two words the AI industry hates more than anything
I talk with computational linguist Emily M. Bender, co-author of the influential 2021 “stochastic parrots” paper, about why AI industry leaders can’t stop seething over the term.
