@eigenrobot I think you were on to something with "The eigenrobot administration will pull every single nyt reporter from their desks and forcibly rotate them." I would stop there, thought. I would just physically rotate them, perhaps in some kind of motorized office chairs, indefinitely.
Good thread. It is interesting that we now use "intelligence" as opposed to the more keen and concrete, "intellect." The later carries echoes of an older treatment, whereby the reverse of your thesis is held, namely, that it is a simple attribute composed of many complex ones. On this general account, the intellect is the faculty for the apprehension of being. Intelligence, with its softer, rounder quality, is an apt signifier of the outward manifestations of the intellect, or, in the case of AI, its advanced mimesis.
In itself, though, the intellect is precisely that alone about us which is simple in the strict sense. It is both that which is properly *one* about us, and that by which we apprehend the one. In understanding, for instance, the disparate are gathered up under one sign and treated as one.
This is what is lacking in the advanced mimesis of intellect. It is not gaps in the domain. Indeed, an isolated monastic figure of extraordinary intellect would have many such gaps, but we would not doubt his intellect. What is lacking is the failure to gather the many under the one, and this may remain lacking even when the domain gaps are closed. That remains to be seen.
@KeiferStreet@realDonaldTrump@RapidResponse47 Not every journalist gets access to the white house. It's a special privilege. Why do you support these snakes getting that privilege over far more deserving people?
@dvb_eck@eigenrobot I would expect that we get fewer blockages here in the US, because the general pattern is that we do everything better and have fewer problems with everything.

Oft turning others’ leaves, to see if thence would flow
Some fresh and fruitful showers upon my sunburned brain.
But words came halting forth, wanting Invention’s stay:
Invention, Nature’s child, fled step-dame Study’s blows,
And others’ feet still seemed but strangers in my way.
Thus great with child to speak, and helpless in my throes,
Biting my truant pen, beating myself for spite:
“Fool,” said my Muse to me, “look in thy heart and write.”'

@HunterBiden@RichRollPodcast Really profound. And it's similar with meme coins. It's not about the result, or the outcome. It's just about the vibes. It's "incredibly selfish" but in a kind of deep way, where you end up getting really rich, ya know?
@TOEwithCurt "Expected absolute value." Establish that expected value is nearly infinite, using a - sign, then flip the sign. I believe this is the market strategy, whether conscious or not.
