An LLM does not need to pull a trigger or automate a missile to serve the cause of war. It can work to make obscene violence feel justified and rational β to give you the illusion that you have βthought the matter through.β π§΅
As a modular synthesizer user and a fan of Eurovision and weird experimental music, I am so hype for LOOK MUM NO COMPUTER's entry for the UK this year. Bring on Eurorackvision. youtu.be/niMKvJ-Itq8
It is true that "prediction markets could give them the answers they needed in ways TV news and π could not" if their questions included, "Can you freaks be any more ghoulish and greedy than you already are?"
If an act of war is called βOperation Epic Furyβ is should be immediately invalidated and the overgrown teenagers in charge of it should be slapped hard across their faces.
what a crazy night for sam altman to be like "yeah we got that dept of war deal, and there's no moral concerns here"
Radio Amateurs of Canada:

There's "be carefull of blocklists, they can change, be coopted, counterproductive" and then there's the JSFB, which is utter gold, the only way to use the site, perfection in motion.

and that, my fellow academics, is one reason not to hire war criminals: so they can't show up years post (their) war arguing in favor of the scaffolding behind their own atrocities with the imprimatur and status of your university
i just LOVE calculating LINE digital royalties for the artists and see the unit price.

this world is so absurd.
Bluesky should not get into this idea that blocking you is a problem. You can be blocked for any reason. You can be blocked because your pfp is annoying. You can be blocked because your vibe sucks.

I made intentional slop this week. The goal: to examine, critically, the emotional charge of ChatGPT 4oβs βbreakup textsβ to users ahead of its shutdown. Rendered as AI pop music, the toxicity and manipulation of those who see 4o as a companion is clear. mail.cyberneticforests.com/chatgpt-brea...
"Bitcoin Biopic Starring Pete Davidson and Casey Affleck Set to Use AI" a headline made by top minds to piss me off
An LLM is language without intelligence. Turns out, language severed from a mind is remarkably powerful. The trick is that this text is just a user's text, but obscured. It takes your text, blows it up, and calibrates the debris to land nearby. Then the interface says, "Here, I wrote this for you."
my feeling on Chomsky is if you can muster more solidarity for men like Epstein than his victims, it exposes a fundamental rot in your own model of the world that can not handwaived away - and you're not simply being "seduced by the ruling class" but you agree with them at some fundamental level

If I were Mayor of Ottawa, I would drive the @octranspo.com management team to Westboro, dump them on a random side street and give them 1 hour to get back to City Hall using only a Presto card

"A secret network of rich child traffickers wanted to avoid accountability for their sex crimes, so they stoked baseless hatred against innocent minorities" simultaneously sounds like an outlandish conspiracy theory and the most obvious possible thing in the world.
