really turned out great i think. i figured out how to do prepress finally and the color is more correct than anything else i have self-published. linework reads much better in print than on screen.... purple spot color on cover and edge of text block perfect, Loud

i think the apocalyptic power of it is in how it's an enormous bubble that will destroy some huge amount of the world economy ??!? not what it can actually Do as a technology. eye on the ball materialists lol

this guy has some good angles but seems unaware of how much he is playing into what are essentially marketing narratives re: the immense apocalyptic power of this stuff

there is an intelligible argument to me that verbally abusing something anthropomorphic might be bad for you; maybe that is a dimension of what is being talked about here. but it's not people and u must have some ideological discipline in that regard i will assert

the thing about people is they are people!!! i am a people chauvinist i'm sorry. i am unwilling to grant the large language model personhood in my personal world model. the bar is high as it has never been cleared in history ever by anything but people, u understand
