Between the generative AI plagiarism machine and the wholesale disappearing of data in the service of censorship, I think about Aaron Swartz being bullied via lawsuit to suicide and about the losers who got the Internet Library Emergency Archive shut down basically every day

Yes, in the perfect society there will be no cringe. But Marxism is not a utopian vision, but a process for abolishing the current state of affairs. No existing revolution can achieve perfection, therefore there can be no revolution without at least some cringe, and we must accept this.

Do not bring back extinct species. Do not build humanoid robots. Do not create artificial general intelligence. Stop it. Stop. Do a potluck or something instead.

a major issue with video games is that they produce a bunch of people who consider themselves brain geniuses for solving problems that were designed to be solvable. as a remedy, we should be making more games that are actively and irreconcilably hostile to the player. thank you

ME: Used to be there was a thing called 'Pokemon Go.' The world was filled with those funny digital fellas. They're all gone now, like everything else. MY GEN ALPHA C/O: checking his rifle breech and kissing the locket of the VTuber he keeps under his flak jacket We go over the top in five.

I look at the world and see nothing worth fighting for. I look at myself and recognize only weakness and failure, everything else deception. But then I look at an AI generated anime woman driving a cybertruck and I go dizzy from dopamine. Finally, happiness ! Infinite Rapture! Thank You God!

This ship has sailed, but I really wish we could stop calling it “artificial intelligence,” which it is not, and go back to calling it “a bunch of algorithms,” which is all it has ever been—and, most likely, all it will ever be (at least within our lifetime). Thank you.

Using “AI” to generate images is not equivalent to making art. It is equivalent to solving an NYT “Connections” puzzle and being rewarded with a picture of a hyper-realistic anime girl with too many fingers and dead, soulless eyes.

There’s no such thing as A.I “art.” It’s a soulless amalgamation of plagiarised data. That is the antithesis of art.

If you accept that non-citizens have no right to due process, you are accepting that citizens have no right to due process. All the government has to do is claim that you are not a citizen; without due process you have no chance to prove the contrary.

What if the secret to winning elections is somehow Trump's syntax. We need a guy to say stuff like "But we're going to abolish billionaires and we'll be doing it very soon. They'll be paying very high taxes but it'll be very fair. And frankly they haven't paid taxes in a very long time"
