Ok so suppose there was a language model that could generate prose without the ridiculous energy consumption and error-prone writing, right?
Why would I want to use that?
Like to me the whole joy of showing writing to others is when they react to stuff that I put in there on purpose.

A solution to population collapse: augment babies with AI so they can more immediately take care of themselves. Might destroy the parent-child bonding mechanism that took millions of years of evolution to build, but the parents will have more time to fulfil their urban wish of becoming Don Draper.

I think house MD is the most realistic show ever made because it's about how doctors can never be both smart and kind at the same time

I really can’t overemphasize how much Lasker has built a big following among even liberal writers as a brilliant eugenicist intellectual because he uses lots of numbers and charts. It’s like a foolproof hack to get popularism dudes to love you, they don’t understand numbers so it blows their minds
saving receipt because it seems kind of important. saving it in public because how could i not

My man is absolutely fucking cooking right now. If you associate with Nazi ideology you will inevitably absorb some of it unless you have a perfect filter for bullshit.
They are immersed in a social environment where far-right framing, far-right language, far-right commentators are completely pervasive, and they think it is not affecting them, but it is.

he’s just unbelievably cooking right here
Moderate, inside-voice, policy-wonk liberalism has allowed our society to descend into nativist, eugenicist, segregationist hellscape straight out of 1920. It has refused to consider how these ideas spread and refused to fight back as they have.

The way we conduct science is socially constructed (labs, universities, biases, etc) but the scientific method of "observe, attempt, correct" is a universal concept down to the atomic level. It doesn't make a whole lot of sense to say that it's socially constructed like philosophy or whatever.
the more reasonable claim - that whatever reality is, the scientific process itself is a social construct - calling that a war would be silly. that's a sweep, obviously correct, barely anyone would bother to disagree

chatgpt is exactly as close to consciousness or experiencing emotions as a calculator, & it will never get any closer
“Can ChatGPT experience joy or suffering? Does Gemini deserve human rights?” our tech columnist asks. “Many A.I. experts I know would say no, not yet, not even close. But I was intrigued.”
Should We Start Taking the Welfare of A.I. Seriously?
As artificial intelligence systems become smarter, one A.I. company is trying to figure out what to do if they become conscious.

Ultimately most software doesn't need to exist (we do not need umpteen customer relations management platforms) and any tool that optimizes for the rapid creation of more software, instead of correct, robust, and versatile software, is bad.
