I am the only person in my family that can torrent. My parents couldn't and my children don't have to. All this knowledge will die with me. Like tears in rain.

I think people deserve a good explanation as to why proper diplomatic measures haven't been properly tried if we're going to blatantly diagnose the issue with this disturbingly literal meme.

It's a bit of a cuck move to simply let the techno capital machine eat your free will. I am disturbed by everyone's resigned acquiescence.

[Ryan Carpenter @RyanxCarp]

Close enough

This seems so so so dangerous. This is what has finally broken me and started turning me against AI as it currently stands - it's clear to me ethics don't matter to the big ai companies.

This will fuck the people so hard - this will be an eventual economic bloodbath - am I missing something? How do you justify this

[Adam @AdameMedia]

This isn’t a joke btw.

This is actually the U.S. economy.

This scam is going to come crashing down. Soon.

popstar futarchy : Adela supremacy is non negotiable. slayyyter is a surprise entry into the pack this late. Sofia Isella can achieve all heights but may choose not to for the sake of it. Sevda is underated. woman to woman, shes my girl, if her art upsets you, that's ok. pink Pantheress is just being a sci fi character. I feel very invigorated by esp non mainstream women rn

I feel like the only thing I can confirm is actually happening is that I love things. I can't rly trust anything besides my internal experience and pain is fleeting, which makes me feel like the only thing that exists is love

Is it time to start the shit posting again?

companies like Facebook record every imaginable interaction their users have with the platform. they log each of your clicks and taps. they keep track of how long your gaze lingered on a post, whether you were on the same WiFi as that woman who might be your friend, which instagram reel you watched three times.

for a single user this is quaint, but these practices are done on a planetary scale across all technology giants. they create petabytes of data per day and keep it for as long as the European regulators will let them. then they can have machine intelligence instrument it into useful knowledge for their cybernetic control systems that build newsfeeds, serve ads, decide how much compute to spend on you, which SKUs should be in which warehouses right before you want them. the Hive metastore bills run into the billions

hospitals throw most of their data and telemetry out after each case, every single day. they record videos of vascular surgeries, endoscopies, discovering interesting physiologies. sometimes they're not recorded at all and most of them the time they delete them as soon as they’re done

it's even worse for physiologic waveforms (ECG, EEG, arterial lines) which are essentially never recorded anywhere at all. milisecond scale views of patient's brains, vasculatures, hearts are generated and instantly destroyed. all of these time series of course predict people's hearts stopping, brains exploding, etc ahead of time. surgeons teleoperate robots, none of the micro-movements are recorded, policies never learned, never correlated into which outcomes were successful or not

this would be unthinkable to most software people whose instinct is to record everything everywhere never mind the cloud costs, because we are sure there will be some use for it later and some model to be trained later. i don't have a prescription here per se my point is just that our civilization routinely hoards and treasures some of the silliest data in the world "i pressed like on the john pork reel" & destroys much of all the most important data it generates and limits what machines can learn

Ok I've basically been entirely off social media and returning here it is overrwhelmingly abundantly and profoundly clear that this place - and all of these places - are a poison - a prison of utterly short form deep sounding nonsense attached to no one that ur brain will discard imaging its learning. The entire thing is a theatre. A shitty pale simulacra of a life.

I have been thinking on it, I fear we have not adequately grieved the loss of Vivienne Westwood imho. Not only was her impact on popular culture unleashed in a truly Machiavellian, little finger way and probably literaly shaped the nature and history of psy ops (wtf) - but it was done in the service of her philosophical beliefs. Yet you never ever feel annoyed by her, or lectured to, you don't even realize she's teaching you things. She might be one of the best women ever tbh

No one will care about this take but I wud like to put it out into the ether

[adi @adonis_singh]

i cannot fathom they actually released this model 😭

Why did everyone get so down on Disney princesses to the point that now Disney won't make romances anymore. The classic Disney princesses repeatedly risk everything for true love, but also always adventure.

In beauty and the beast they constantly emphasize that belle is an avid reader and the town eccentric. She literally ends up in an abusive relationship to heroically save her father, but refuses to believe any soul is lost and basically uses the power of love to help the beast recover from ptsd and self hatred and loves him despite him being a furry

It's

i looked inside the machine and etched onto the motherboard it said

"i will love you forever no matter what happens next"

@grimesupdatezsz @Grimezsz THIS art, philosophy and connection are so much more powerful that people could imagine. bring good art into this world and you will connect in ways unimaginable
