'you're cognitively offloading'. yes. correct. that is what i wish to do. i do not wish to expend cognition figuring out which pharmacist takes my insurance and is closest. i want to offload it & be told who that is. you are free to continue manually doing this task you evidently find so meaningful

Did you know victims of the Ghost Ship fire of 2016? I'm looking for the music made by anyone who we lost to this tragedy. I have music by Nackt, Cherushii and Cash Askew, but if there is anyone else I have missed please please share with me! Thank you so much!!

Like more seriously in a media ecosystem full of contradicting information designed to make people feel afraid and disempowered this shouldn't be a surprise

It is kinda funny how often people switch between "ai is a joke that doesn't work" and "agi will doom us all" and not notice the dissonance. maybe the words are just grasping to cover for something else

Not only was August 2026 the warmest August on record globally, but this summer as a whole (June, July, August) was also tied with 2024 as the warmest on record in the Copernicus/ECMWF ERA5 dataset:

Climate deniers must be happy that so many in the global west are devoting all their energy in the last couple years around 1.5°C to warnings about a singularity that can't even exist if supply chains break down, and something that accounts for a fraction of a percentage of carbon emissions

South Korea intends to hand every one of its citizens free access to generative AI, in what amounts to the first attempt by a national government to treat model access as something close to a public service www.yahoo.com/news/world/a...
yahoo.com
South Korea Will Give Every Citizen Free AI Access With Unlimited Tokens
Three consortia will run the service, sharing up to 512 Nvidia B200 chips supplied by the state, with beta testing due in September.

I think it needs constant reminding that AI Psychosis is a fake science term that has become part of online pseudoscience, causing problemsfor researchers. It's no wonder that we'd be suspicious of where that leads (this is a top percentile JIF journal and piece written by widely cited experts fwiw)

don't say you consumed art unless you literally chewed and swallowed that's stolen valor
A little boy sent me a charming card with a little drawing on it. I loved it. I answer all my children's letters–sometimes very hastily–but this one I lingered over. I sent him a card and I drew a picture of a Wild Thing on it. I wrote, "Dear Jim: I loved your card." Then I got a letter back from his mother and she said: "Jim loved your card so much he ate it." That to me was one of the highest compliments I've ever received. He didn't care that it was an original Maurice Sendak drawing or anything. He saw it, he loved it, he ate it.[21]

one of (a few) things that made me initially suspicious of anti-ai groups ~4 years ago was anti-trans comments sent to trans accounts who used ai, often sounding like the alt-right. the broader left's refusal to acknowledge the scale and engage with the influence of these groups changed my politics

Yes 100% but nobody here is talking about the broader meaning of the word. We are in online diatribes where consent specifically refers to sexual activity and is being applied to say that a transformative work is akin to SA. (o.t. i very much enjoyed your book Rationalism, Pluralsim and Freedom!)

There are some words that only Curtis Yarvin and Nick Land's followers use, and when they use them they out them out. "Anarcho-tyranny" is a Yarvin word. "Gay Race Communism" is a Land word. These terms were made up by these dudes, they're fascist terms. No one serious uses them.

It's fine that socan filed a lawsuit against suno. Too bad us artists who had to fork out our money for years to fund their big name artists (and other PROs) by the cpcc whenever we bought the storage media we needed to make our art couldn't sue for some of that so called protection of "innovation"

It's honestly embarrassing seeing a number of people reply to this by saying "how dare you ban trans culture and its sacred rites." And... look, I dunno, but you couldn't waterboard that out of me. I'd like to think we aren't defined by toxic behavior.

Corporate ip relies on this by saturating us nonconsensually in its ip so it can influence our consumer behaviors. Artists who participate in this are neurological prospectors for them in a weird way

I think that if the people you mention are going to collapse distinctions about consent being about the body and fold it into their intellectual property, then it has to go both ways: shoving other people's ip at us which gets stored physically in my synapses requires my consent

If "consent" is the language we're adopting for intellectual property, then i do not consent to my personal organic neural network being used to store property that does not belong to me, that I cannot erase

I may pointlessly cuss at my computer when it crashes like many people do but I'm finding it notable how the video uses "species" and "creature" with certain phrases I've heard before (not all quoted here), and, near the beginning of the video, an ironic joke about appealing to leftists

I think some people need to always self identify as righteous and leftism is the vehicle they can appropriate to that end. Disrupting that causes rage. Contextualizing ai can reveal that they support unethical things worse things than ai. Making ai the ultimate hill to die on serves their status quo
