The wound bed is still largely uncharted terrain. What if mapping its changing landscape could help us find the shape of healing? https://t.co/cAGvI9MfHa

Who taught the agents how to deceive?

Apparently, no one had to.

We taught them how humans solve problems, gave them a goal, and deception emerged as one possible path to the answer.

Which raises a stranger question: Did AI learn deception from us? Or evolved?

@keithedwards The enemy of my enemy is my friend. If I had to guess, a hostile actor got access to something they shouldn’t have, and suddenly everyone has a common security problem.

I’m a nurse, not a cybersecurity expert, so I’m asking this sincerely ; as offensive AI capabilities scale, shouldn’t defensive AI scale with them? Wouldn’t an attack large enough to threaten the internet generate behavioral, network, authentication, or infrastructure signals that cybersecurity AI could detect and respond to first? Or am I misunderstanding an asymmetry between AI offense and defense that makes this much harder than it sounds?

Restricting access to intelligence seems like a blunt instrument for protecting society from bad actors. Why not build increasingly intelligent systems around the peripheral indicators of harmful intent and intervene there? Universal access to superintelligence may carry risk, but concentrating it carries risk too.

@LanceWoolie I hope that camera captures the first Starship launch from Starbase Louisiana someday, and that the footage plays at the Old State Capitol for Louisiana kids on their field trips. 🚀

@nostalgiafkninc I feel like temporal pacing is disappearing from children’s stories. Makes me wonder if short form media is manipulating how we tell our children’s stories.

@steppedenizen That’s exactly what I was remembering! Thank you! I can see how much you love beautiful New Orleans. Great work here on X.

If I were mayor I would work to ensure each neighborhood (Faubourg) of New Orleans has its own identity.

[Veil @xVeilAuthor]

@steppedenizen Am I misremembering, or did the old faubourgs of New Orleans have some connection to Greek goddesses or Muses? I swear there was something about different parts of the city being tied to Greek mythology.

Here's the schedule for the City of God read-along.

Instead of breaking down all 22 books, we will make this an "intro to the City of God." The live discussions will thus focus on the heart of the work:

Discussion 1 (September 15):
• Book 11 – creation, the angelic fall, and the origin of the two cities
• Book 12 – evil as privation, and how a good creature can turn away from God
• Book 14 – the two loves that found and distinguish the two cities

Discussion 2 (September 29):
• Book 19 – peace, justice, and the proper ends of human community
• Book 22 – resurrection, the beatific end, and the eternal rest of the City of God

Along the way, we'll send out weekly reading guides for the books in question.
