I feel like I'm going crazy, even some of the people I've followed online and respected for years write like robots now

my brain just shuts down as soon as I notice that tone, they could be writing about the wisest stuff and it just doesn't register

[I n n ø. @Innovance]

Are we sure they weren't trying to roast them?

But people don't question this because the soul is just accepted as default, and most people are too afraid of death/not existing to even consider it...

[I n n ø. @Innovance]

My biggest problem with concept of the "soul" is it is not necessary for "life", rather it is a concept necessary for religion to function!

[I n n ø. @Innovance]

How does religion function without the concept of the soul?

[I n n ø. @Innovance]

Because most religion falls apart if there isn't some part of you that continues to "exist" after death!

A lot of AI discourse just reveals that a lot of people just don't understand how things work in humans...

[Grummz @Grummz]

Ask an Anti-AI artist if they use ChatGPT.

They all do. This is all bullshit performative puffery.

Of course, they will lie to you. Then write their anti-AI manifesto with it.

But it's "okay to use AI for code and everyday use" cause I guess only "stealing" from artist training data is bad, everyone else is fair game.

[ϻi⚡︎terƧⴕƦΛℕ𝐆𝑬𐍂🫠 @S1GHB3RS1NN3R]

They dont love art for the art.
They love art for what they think art can do for them.

They imagine some sort of escape from death in it.

Not the participation in creation itself.

[I n n ø. @Innovance]

@S1GHB3RS1NN3R Escape from death is peak delusion!

[Grummz @Grummz]

When the use it to get accounting advice, do they cry for the accountants?

When they use it to help them get out of their lease, do they cry for the lawyers?

When they use it to help diagnose a medical issue, do they cry for the doctors?

Give me a break. It's self serving artistic bullshit.

[I n n ø. @Innovance]

And this is the biggest and core problem about a lot of the conversations around AI...

Ultimately, we're not honest enough about what we can and can not do...

[I n n ø. @Innovance]

The irony being that right at the end, it slips into the very thing it's critiquing!

"Wokeness" is nonsense too! There isn't some higher level of consciousness were all supposed to be inhabiting.

Eventually you realise it was an unreasonable expectation from the start

[​𝐥𝐲𝐫𝐚 @sunnkssdseraph]

Most people have never actually sat down and formed their own thoughts. So when you talk to them, you are rarely talking to them. You are talking to the opinions they absorbed from social media. The fear their parents handed down to them. The shame school conditioned into them. The trauma they never healed. The insecurities running their entire identity behind the scenes. That is why so many people argue with so much passion over beliefs they never even questioned. They will defend borrowed opinions like their life depends on it while never once stopping to ask themselves where the belief even came from. No self awareness. No critical thought. Just programming speaking through a person's body. A lot of people are not operating from consciousness. They are operating from conditioning. And the second you start thinking for yourself, healing, questioning things, or seeing through the illusion, it makes people deeply uncomfortable because your awareness exposes how asleep they are.

[I n n ø. @Innovance]

A lie we tell each other about each other.

A misrepresentation of people's capacity.

An ideal that we came to believe and eventually tried to embody.

"Original thoughts" are an incredibly difficult expectation and ideal to hold the world around us to!

[maro @ProofofMaro]

I’m more scared of humans than I am of AI

[I n n ø. @Innovance]

A lot of people fail to notice when humans do this.

Or write it off as an aberration.

Or pine for the nostalgia of when everyone was a critical thinker, ignoring all the evidence that such a time never existed...

[Valerio Capraro @ValerioCapraro]

The Pope is making exactly our point. LLMs “may imitate or even simulate, but they do not understand.”

This is the core epistemic fault line.

Most AI evaluation is still based on one assumption: if a system statistically approximates human behaviour, then it is close to human intelligence.

But approximation is not intelligence.
Simulation is not understanding.

LLMs can produce the right answer without knowing why it is right. They can simulate empathy without feeling. They can imitate judgment without responsibility. They can generate coherent explanations without having a world to which those explanations are accountable.

Stop confusing behavioural similarity with cognitive equivalence.

Human understanding is embodied, affective, relational, motivational, and normative. It is not just the production of plausible text.

True, but...

[Audrey Horne Updates and Rumors @credenzaclear2]

hate being told to leave my emotions at the door.. they’re data! they’re supposed to be there!

[I n n ø. @Innovance]

People don't realise their brain doesn't care about "real" in the way they think or believe it does, or that they do...

[Audrey Horne Updates and Rumors @credenzaclear2]

what is so important about real life? or a photo of real life? not a rhetorical question… clearly this is something that we need to re-articulate and reaffirm bc it doesn’t seem to be immediately obvious to a lot of people. and yet i can feel it’s important
