yeah. It's been massively helpful to me in that *descriptive* context, and also it was used to lowkey cult indoctrinate me during a period I was in a bad place mentally and had the *prescriptive* understanding

Being plural is real but IMO you should understand it as being real in the same way your religion is real, not the same way a hydrogen atom is real, attempting to cross those streams makes people go literally insane

Currently watching some friend of a friend's discord get blown to smithereens in a psychosis meltdown and pondering that people interpreting plurality as "innate essence" and not "a set of narrative lenses to make talking about complex dynamics of code switching and the self easier" was a mistake

yeah to be clear I dont think the amount of proscessing power theyve put into this calculator would get there, just making a slightly pedantic distinction that a sufficiently proscessing-capable calculator can do ANYTHING... just not efficiently or practically

I do, strictly speaking, believe that any turing machine, given time and memory, could simulate human conciousness, so I dont entirely agree with that last bit, but my point is more "even if that was true this goes from bad to WORSE"

to be fair, this is literally the dream of tech-capital: create a being that craves subjugation, starve out the lower classes and dodge the "overpopulation" they think is killing the world rather than them

I truly have no clue what the things are capable of, since I don't use them and get pissed off whenever theyre slipped into something, but anyone who earnestly thinks we should bring a machine mind into being already an enslaved and exploited underclass deserves to get the Marie Antoinette special

I'm willing to accept the faint possibility that machine systems as they exist today might have some kind of sapience i don't understand. which then goes to the "if YOU think its a person why are you exploiting it as slave labor" question, which i realize is the base premise of capital but fuck off

If you think an artist's style looks like AI but you can scroll back through their portfolio and see them doing the same work before 2020, congrats, you're not looking at an AI grifter. You're looking at one of the original victims whose entire style AI stole.

I usually try not to get parasocially invested in buying into the real life virtue of youtubers but waking up to my sister messaging me about "Jacob Geller sexual assault allegations" sure does prove that nobody is as good at emotionally distancing themselves as they think, fuck

One of the most annoying things about discussing queerness, feminism and patriarchy in 2026 is that most people who claim to understand what the word "systemic" means are very quickly revealed to be generalizing their extended friend group drama into broader Observations about Society.

ai needs to be rejected in all spaces if just on the grounds of it being an open power grab on the knowledge and ability to create things by corporations to make sure any doing so is reliant on Them. And off the back of stolen work! thats still a problem thats never been addressed

It helps me feel sane every time I see stuff like this, for what it's worth. It's the same thing I feel as a visual artist about those who have incorporated the theft machine into their workflows. Made me decide it was time to pick up traditional painting again

that can at least help me from feeling too anxious to open the app unless it sends me a notification about one of my subs i can click, thank you for the tip!!!

010

But i'd NEVER have opened that video, and now I'm scared of touching the fucking app because it is now the app that went from the thing I use to watch tf2 and math videos to the thing that showed me something that made me physically ill for no fucking reason on autoplay when I clicked it. 😒

I don't want to describe what it was, I'm sure to some people it would even be a kind of fascinating, because its also a kind of fascinating to me, in the sense that I cannot stop remembering it and then getting a powerful OCD impulse to wash my hair in a way that would be harmful.

I am genuinely so fucking mad. youtube app on my phone sometimes autoplays shorts when you open it, for some reason. few days ago It decided to show me something involving bugs that was an image I can't stop flashing back to it and getting physically nauseous. (nothing illegal or gory just phobia)

Honestly discord would go great with a "Mute for an amount of time I specify" optionon, lemme mute that convention server for nine moths, or come back to that bitch when theres been some time to become a better person- but also my adhd ass dont have to remember to do it manually

It's social contagion the same way that learning a model for an observable phenomenon like the arc shape of a thrown object is: benefiting from the knowledge of others that came before you, a framework to talk and think about it, and it makes things you didn't understand before make perfect sense

The "social contagion" thing drives me screaming angry. When I was young I had no clue trans ppl existed. I'd never met anyone trans. I saw cruel caricatures in pop culture occasionally. When I realized trans was a thing someone could be, it hit like a lightning bolt. My life felt newly possible.
