Because you have eyes on your posts, so people want to hijack that for views. (I hope you're not talking about me though lol, considering I often defend non-generative AI in your posts)
But Yahoo News comments from First Name Last Initial proved that solar was a communist un-American scam. How could someone mentioning Solyndra in 2025 be wrong? www.bbc.com/news/article...
Actually there are some ways. Most interesting I've seen is called "concept anchoring." A lot of the problems of Gen AI— actually all of them— relate to the fact they're built on attention-based transformers and diffusion models. Until we go neurosymbolic, they'll always have these flaws.
Reform UK, latest flavor of the month populist nationalist movement in England. Exactly the kind that would attract the types who would have worn a flash-and-circle patch 70 years ago
once the Left is dealt with. Progressives will clamor for Israel's destruction, but generally will respond to and kick the asses of the ones blaming Jews as a whole. Buddying with the Right to deal with it is a deal with the devil that could lead to literally millions of dead Jews. That's my worry
but so many Jewish folk decided MAGA or Reform is safer for them against the lefty hordes. In reality were just one bad betrayal away from ICE rounding up Jews en masse, and no one seems to realize that some of the forces in government who champion Israel are making moves to stab Jews in the back
don't even mask their antisemitism out of the public eye. Turn to Xitter and there you go, any post defending Jews is met with hundreds or thousands of Evil Merchant, 109, or Protocols memes. Resisting progressives because of radical anti-Zionism spilling over into antisemitism is one thing
That's kind of the point of why people condemn Israel. It's what I myself feared— conflating Israel's government with Jews. The main problem I've seen is that a lot of Jewish people thus cozied up to the far right which ostensibly supported Jews. This is an utterly horrible idea because these folks
Lucille, Duchess of Rocheforte Right evil lady. Gets her head smashed by a lefty's rock during the May '68 uprisings, decides then and there all proles/peasants are uncivilizable communist scum, goes down the NRx path Drawn by @PoofinatorY2K #BabylonToday#aristocrat#fascist#eattherich#noble
Seriously why is it that I'm the only one who feels like putting Mudhoney, Smashing Pumpkins, Jane's Addiction, Soundgarden, Kyuss, Unsane, Tool, Sleep, Melvins, Fugazi, and Hole on the same playlist isn't strange or jarring? All the late 80s/early 90s heavy rock bands have a similar ethos
It's 2025. It's time to accept grunge, heavy alt, noise rock, rap rock, stoner rock, sludge metal, post hardcore, and riot grrrl circa 1987-1995 were part of a general "90s heavy rock" scene and not disparate happenings #altrock#grunge#early90s#HeavyRock#90sheavyrock
It's a hot take but I feel like a country friendly for Jews is a good concept. There's more than enough good, unpopulated land on this Earth to accommodate for it. Why Palestine of all places?
Speaking as a Black guy myself, my take on all this is it'd be just as wrong for ethnosupremacist Africans 1000 years from now to bomb and subjugate Europe just because we were enslaved. Israel has even LESS reason than that to target Palestinians.
We need to bring back techno-communism "Remember when we wanted to use robots to create FALGSC?" China's already showing us the way. Their "Darwin Monkey" AI uses 2 kilowatts and isn't made by stealing IP. Meanwhile we need terawatts just to make low-quality summarizer machines 2% better.
Welcome to the Tech Capitalist Hype Cycle. "This will be a Revolution in life itself. Humanity will never be the same." > it releases > it's a water bottle "No, no, it's WATR BÖTTL, a new wave to engage with oxygenated polar molecular hydration."
But we in America aren't doing that because what we're going through is essentially creating Digital Potemkin Villages for the sake of a movement led by fusions of Elizabeth Holmes and Jim Jones.
That's precisely why China isn't putting all their eggs in one basket. A bunch of people have said that LLMs aren't the path to AGI or useful AI. Yet Western labs doubled down on it. China diversified. Now I'm convinced they're seriously onto something after reading some of their AI papers.
If the future plays out as the present suggests, China will possibly see automated luxury communism thanks to actually useful AI, while we get """"""""AGI""""""""-run techno-feudalism, or just straight balkanization and collapse when the bubble pops
They're building actually efficient and potentially very useful artificial pseudo-brains while we're trudging along with autoregressive attention-based transformers that don't even fundamentally know anything.
