@rohan_21awake I really enjoyed listening to the guided meditation tracks in the Buddhify app back in the day. I can't find it in the Google Play store anymore :(.

Please let me know if there's anywhere these tracks can still be heard, I'd love to reminisce

"Why do you need to make a beautiful image? Why do you need the image to behave? Why do you need the cliché that sells: the clean, legible fantasy that slides frictionlessly into the feed?"

Gen Z might be over this 67 thing, but Eva / Evita / Madonna has still not let it go

@Steve_Yegge @of1ai technically everyone or everyone technical? :)

@nomhossain great find!

@btwn_dimensions I'm glad there's still people in the world who inspect things

@SundaeDivine If you stop using the term AI (instead say SALAMI), you can reclaim some ground as far as valuing the gift that is your innate human intelligence. (The etymology of "nice" is ignorant...)

[Li Jacobsyn @itw_li]

@aiamblichus The OP loses me on "Being human (and being an AI)". Have you ever been an AI? You can imagine what that might feel like, because you are a human

@Falliblemusings It's brave to reflect, to reconsider. It's braver to make your reflections public. 👏👏

Reminds me of ways that the Buddha's teaching get misinterpreted as nihilistic when it strongly countered the nihilism of its day

@imjustculture No joker :)

@imjustculture Yet his Hallelujah remains so beautiful. What a tragic accident! I never knew

@emilymbender @michaelzimmer @quinta How the sausage is made indeed.

@emilymbender @quinta You've articulated it well and I wish there was more attention to this issue. I wish I had found this term sooner, as the term AI is totally unfitting for helping human intelligence properly hold and use these powerful tools.
