On Beep_Boop an honest investigation of fanaticism
- La Resistance independent -
- Sociological report start -
So what's your opinion on LLMS?
Your incredibly opinionated manner you himbo waltz into The due diligence for your [ Perfect interpretation here ] Okay serious.
Short answer: My position is sociologically with the epistemics of Susan Haack, Henry Ferrel, Abi Awomosu, aesthetically Masamune Shirow, intepretability from Matteo Pasquinelli. Discard the malpractice didney lawyers with culture war kruft.
It's a mixed review of the various critics of the venture capitalists and brings it's own conclusion of a solapunk/scrapunk. Garrison Lovely has a decisive take on Ed Zitron. I've had my own commentary with that model collapse.
"Most AI debates aren’t really about evidence. Instead, they’re arguments about futures that none of us have seen.
Nobody has seen superintelligence, a machine that most people agree is conscious, or a fully automated economy. Evidence can be gathered, but it underdetermines the conclusion. To fill the gap, we fall back on a combination of philosophy, political intuitions or, in some cases, tribal identity."
Long Answer:
Welcome, sceptics and hyper-believers. ππ
Refutations to respect polysemy of a new age to end the dogmatic eristics of a fantastical boycott. Of vulgar critical theory πͺπ⭐
The intellectual case. Away from the prosumer
metrology outside.
This embarrassment of praxis ends here.
To the end of the art hall monitors with their false historiography. To point a finger at the AI denial industry too.
A doxastic space this blind dogma ends here. Couch Gregor is angry. ππ He'll do an investigation.
(well earlier than that) Since computation has begun.
It all started with a kerfuffle of reverse-engineering accidents involving Dall-E.
all of it was simple before
A call for beep_boop preparationism. No dog in the race. To end the ignorant assumptions, I must dive into the double consciousness of the artisan class. To that, with the couch gregor explains his multiple poistion.
Then a naughty publicity stunt.
It began.
Then after Alexander Avila, I'm like, why are we fighting? This factionalism or fandom had started. This is leading into a second-opinion bias encouraged by social media.
“Socialism never took root in America because the poor see themselves not as an exploited proletariat but as temporarily embarrassed millionaires. ”- John Steinbeck
So the temporally embarrassed double consciousness of the copywriter/graphic designers of centralised media.
Then Twitter became X, and then a spectacle happened. The Disney happened. Then the trolls declared open season on it; now it's a mess. The trolls have become snobbified. Something open source nominally got labelled as anti-centralisation. A false base for dialectics is not a way to go for it to be anti-worker. Such is the bad epistemology that had lead to this to seep of the brute truth to the power of the intellectuals and academics biting back at the entertainment industry.
Yet now..
We must have a discussion about this.
and I've had my investigations. My labels will have come and gone nominally.
Now that, as a preparationist, I suggest you hold onto your cushions. This one is going beyond the Ed Zitron, and Cory Doctorow.
gambleor (to a shooting applying similar here): "it seems to me like what is being stated is a principled distortion. The idea that (Bad actors hold positions which broadly brush believers of all stripes as though they are a monolith leaves them open to the same type of scrutiny."
So we are now that stage of polemical convenience. With the partisan fanactism from this point
Beware of polemic commodity of critical theory into dysfunction.
Time to demand a clearance of conceptual confusion.
Of the insufferable wonks and of the copyright maximalists.
Do not harass this group, despite my illustration of them as nondescript clowns. This is a call to get out before it's too late.
"The recent and rapid adoption of generative AI (including large language models like ChatGPT and image generators like Stable Diffusion) has proven that this tendency is alive and well. As these new technologies seek footholds in the digital economy, we have already begun to see scam sites, high-profile slip ups, get-rich-quick schemes, and other digital malfeasance springing up around them like mushrooms after a brisk rain."
Oh and that provocateur company does not have any serious indie behind it, silly venture capital, controversy marketing.
so, with the tech of the boomers, they come.
There is a mwurican thing happening. (Tressie's response to a china article) So the conflicts emerge.. So it's brought.
You're wondering. (I'll have to do a review of this.)
I dunno Dario likes to shoot himself in the foot. Probably send it towards a goverment safety https://www.aisi.gov.uk/ or something like that.
So to clarify. It's time to go with another thing to provide robustness while considering the safety of substitution most of all.
We have to look at the fanaticism on the other side.
There's another movement I'm finding insufferable.
I'm not representative of the Sam Altman/Elon Xwitter fire of beep_boop, it's a specific of copyright law defenders of IP laws. I'm calling out this dead end of motivated reasoning.
Away from Musk (I ate him in my zine, and that silly xai project my fictional giant destroyed it, I wish he got rid of AIx too. Yet none of my sex life.)
As the grifter reaches the too-good, perfect coherentism of hustle culture and Sam Altman's head of babbling incoherentism of 'stochastic parrots' with all that crunk. There was another group informally growing.
I got this propaganda CTA from a blog I shall not name.
Wow, the oligarch country.
Dogmatic Dialectics? Where does it go? Into the totality of the spectacle.
ππ
Shameless. Well guess they don't have as sense of coherency. The anti-AI AI club
no to the venture capitalists behind this. This is a scalpel extraction.
(Oh, I don't support the OpenAI fudge-up btw, this is me handling a complexity.) I'll be misinterpreted and go several different ways due to reading comprehension.
The comfort of a bubble so that it all goes away from AI is low-key evil and advocates hustle culture/crunch. Taylorist in its destination of all it does. Thanks to the clown who started all of this. The moral panic is exhausting zealotry now. So I'm keeping it in academia and within a reading-blocked essay like this. (You're going to have to read this; I don't have the advertising budget and youtube production budget.)
Tesla and Nfts are stocks that have been in a bad market crash, IM) Now It's another turn. It's all stuck within microblogging, and that's the indictment of the celebrity culture there.
Wilfully misinformed Marxism or Leftism, or what Badmouse calls 'baby leftism' for lack of a better term (I call it 'wilfully misinformed' or preprosterism), has been hijacked by aburdist moral panic in the insular bubble of social media.
This epistemic certainty is gone now; the hills to die on are of foundherent presumptions, all justifications that I'm dubious of:
The false start of the historiography of histronic pattern matching. The biggest question is the licensing laws and economics.
Of So what of the obsoleting project that Garrison Lovely has predicted within-
Proprietary DRM and rent-seeking via copyright trolls because it was politically convenient. It's still privatisation of property. I'm not shooting myself in the foot, not my proxy to advocate for. These neural networks don't contain copies. Arguing otherwise will lead to danger. When the vulgarisation praxis hits, I'm out. Have to give it for fanart/fanfiction here. It's the worst possible argument of eliminative materialism of fair use.
Any copyright framework that will forbid transformative works will have way more damage on startups, and fan art/remixes will be forbidden under the regime.
Fan art and cover-band art will be banned due to civic responsibility moving from freelancers to commercial firms. Since the internet is built on infringement already. Along with a loss of bargaining leverage by the unions.
So due process, freedom of expression, and freedom to oblivion > disney:nintendo racketeering, Sorry. Sooner that rule of law thing is respected. The less embarrassment I'll get from the entertainment industry.
So, even with this moat they've built, we have to build around it in these decentralised spaces.
It's going to be like the story of the derivative. With the brain implants. Content Id from Disney/Nintendo.That's my Cassandra opinion.
Re-create on resources on the encryption=/=recreation.
Not to say that there are irresponsible and negligent cases. It's easier to commence fraud with copy+paste though. Hijacking by bad actors attempting to radicalise to bad fundamentals like prosperity, (Nickels/koch group?) Weird centrist opportunists like EdZitron, My charitable interpretation is they bought in. This the enclosure of the entertainment media of the centralised media.
Is this yet another reach via an [AstroTurf/incentivised behaviour] Christian (family values) fundamentalist, along with their token supporters, to add confusion and disorder within the public sphere with all this lobbying? Yes. They are pushing this. Political tokenism, even to doctrinaire intersectional standards.
"Stable Diffusion is just collage!" is one of the most popular. Even though it is wrong, the error is not actually the equation being proposed. The error is the implication that being such *would* make Diffusion any less useful. The message of such a claim is not the content, it is the sentiment.
It can even be completely disproved. As soon as you try to argue against the *content* of the affirmation, you've allowed the wrong debate to take place. The proper answer to these claims is much simpler: "So what? Text prediction is perfectly useful in its own right."
And so on. Collage is a perfectly good artistic medium, even if that isn't what image generation does anyways. Whatever the case may be, I like my tools, and that's all that matters. The gears that it consists of are not relevant to whether the machine is useful. Only I can see whether it helps me.

"(thing that is very much a transformative extension of Y) is just Y" happens *all the time* with startups; it is among the laziest tech bro dunk forms that exists"
X is just Y is terminally online social media brained. Designed for social media clout.
Fraud Punctuating cherry-picking a de minimis and a Texas sharpshooter of a function; that's not what they were designed to do.
Or a mereological fallacy as Rahul would say. Granted, with our interaction with the metrics here and the measures with dance here between our relations and modes.
Yet we won't have to hope soon, those outside are speaking up with decolonial voices will seek to find a tomorrow sunshine.
Awi Awomosu along with many intellectuals such as Andy Masley,Kevin Baker, Nicolas, and Henry Farrel.
The no fakes is worst thing that will cause a universal destitution of the decentralised workers. Making style trade dress, that can bog right off.
Fake quote
This is not critical theory. Only blind mob rule that social media encourages.
Mob rule. Making memes to make a point. Since memetic art ain't orginal.
Oh, and there's that little detail.
Extremely confident training is fair use/dealing with that Amouri physical piracy. As digital redistribution isn't an entitlement.
This is the perfect analogy, and guess I'm feeling schadenfreude of such
a silly lawsuit that sent social media into ruination.
Such as EFF, Creative Commons and the Authors Alliance, which I stand with.
Critical theory ought to be against copyright/DMCA from now on.
Reactionaries promoting draconian AI regulation that will make age verification regulation a libertarian cakewalk. By Mark Oh to repeat quote from my licence opinions
"oh This too. I feel like this is becoming cope bait. Again, too many bad actors hijacking."
(They took it down and developing there own, I haven't checked.)
OH NO! Property law is a john Lockean, Kantian universal deontological trap! What do we do?
THEY TOOK OUR JE- Well, time to give my honest answer of the socio-economic conditions. Since I'm over the pond, I can't confidently comment on the geopolitics there. Only give the best answer for 8 billion humans!
There is a structural shift within the economics of the symbolic shift of meta-knowledge within the economics, and only a fool brings AI optimism within an economic fight. So I'm going to look at the computerisation and the strategy. Of labor;compute ratio.
So other than labour protections within law.
Automation is a matter of capital in regard to freelancers and firms. Too much epistemic certainty from those who aren't epistemic experts. (Post Edit: Also, what will get replaced are teleological, capitalistic, commodified jobs in the job market, like copyrighters. Also, it could create jobs, so substitution/automation. Soooo, let's not get so presumptive. Outsourcing already happens. So, what of it with the theory of the firm to this day
Yet I know there are those who are influenced the most: journeyman graphic designers and commercial copywriters. So here's my blog post on THAT. Here's all my research. Plus more on LLMS.
It's got tasty illustrations
(I'll put this on my TBR list too.)
So there's the polysemy of substitution/augmentation (Got that from Cosmo) and there are solutions to both.
Thats another post and 8 hour video essay for your thoughts. It's likely to go up again. It looks like something branded as anti-left from decentralised sources, though; that's what I'm questioning.
Let the capitalist hypebeasts race to the bottom.
Psychosis is a Base rate fallacy. (About minimal things) Liability increases police intervention and expands to mental health.
It's a delicate issue so I deal with it there.
Reactionary Luddism, and it's bad, as reactionary things are bad. I know that's the double-sided side of small business (middle class/artisan/creative/petit bourgeois). Yet here we are. Neo luddisim does not of a coherent material bas to operate on.
Also, reflexive consciousness is an argument of people who don't know, So I clarified my position here. Skeptics welcome. I won't accept eliminative materialism.
Functional/living sapience consciousness polysemy. My feeling revealed there.
It does express salience for metacognition with natural language input, so. While not deserving of a deontological duty, it can be treated with lower-order consciousness.
GOLEMS HAVE SOULS! OKAY! Oh, okay then, this will go in with philosophers on substack.
The clanker slur discourse has become ableist with bionic limbs, along with this beingprosthetic-intelligence discrimination. This is all high school grade status cruft.
With it becoming a norm of hierarchy status.
Ontological status games are one reason I left with this, tech-bro, clanker, luddo, you name it.
Oh and increased power consumption remains dubious and extends towards to MWURICas energy usage. It expands to green energy.
Oh yeah did I tell you the classifiers don't work and are a cottage industry in of itself, well you are the product.
Some pretentious YouTuber threw a clock study to disprove it; there's that here.
Recursive Self-Improvement?? Nah.
As for the bubble.
As for bubble speculation, Don't listen to Ed Zitron, IDK why he's got a book deal.
wow, ty for such erm, internet for giving me this technocritic
Yet they move the goalposts with every moment, it used to be big pharma, big disney, and big tech now. Yet that leads into bad epistemology. Yet, I'm not saying you can't yet, a bad base is a bad base. Dogmatically so.
I can't control the winds and the weather of macro waves of sociological forces, though. It's not like they'll galvanise or radicalise bad epistemics of infinite regression.
There will always be vendors for those subsumed.
Sigh, there's an industry now. Even with my irenicism, I can
Only keep it quiet here.
From Aaron Tay who's doing academic research, hmm. Well, it's all that.
When all the baseless assumptions are left with nothing to cohere, I alter my perceptions to fit a new point of view of care into moderation. They not start call-outs/boycotts.
The performative, showmanship and ruthless of the bunch have been the vocal minority. Back before 1953, where it was uninvented by doxing and harassing with malpractice. Direct action! That malpractice is something I can't work with. Compare that reaction to the Sam Altman/Elon polemics to this.
Look at medicine, weather prediction, and new avenues.. outside of the microblogging epistemic filter bubbles. Now we are here.
They're merely lost. No conflict theory is getting into pure idealism this is going. Oh a misplaced radicalism. Such as the revisionism of popular ideas online that get too much attention.
Such is the term of left from the 1800 of the bourgeoisie into the scam economy. Along with the way it's directed with the government.
We will have to interpellate this epistemic tech, for no epistemology is sound under reactionary capital, yet adaptation we can survive to not be subservient to it. The regulation via the state will make the age verification tech look restrained. These second-order effects.
Tech, tool, medium whatever. It's getting rebranded I'll have to demand for it's irenicism (that will never happen) yet the reaction is broken; that's why I foundherently reject it. Since the smug left has adopted the presuppositionalist tactics from the cristian reactionary fundamentalists.
So, I beg you, don't continue this campaign and stop this hole you're digging in. If you're calling the doomers AI bros, what does that make you with proprietary DRM? Misrablist with the Class that's supposed to be a civil lawsuit.
This boycott will basically go nowhere given their broken radical roots, like Ron Paul supporters and men's rights activists; that's my prediction.
Another fundamental reactionary blip of response rates.
I may be fighting the long gone mobs myself, lest I become a subject to this meme.
Over the pointless polemics over Altman and Elon, I can't get behind this anti-tech polemics for the sake of it. We are going to have to re-strategise with understanding this while ignoring the provokers.
So, it's going to be antitrust. Against the laws of censorship of copyright and odd anti-porn in order to win points for a privatised entity that's going. Good thing I'm going to self-publish. This has made me less radical and more of a sociological generalist in terms of allegiances for my campaigning for recognition.
(Oh and don't act like you've got a monopoly unless you go viral and get a Jeremy Clarkson endorsement.)
"Just kill this naive bubble." Or, control the conversion rate/conversation
So then, they're putting humanism on there goods/services as if it's luxury, as if
Those lower from other countries are listening to how such shame structures operate.
You don't even have to use them to see this is going into a bad infinity of scepticism. (That's a little bit of hegelism for you.) So, Why not lean in the technocapital as the technoserfs themselves can't take it seriously anymore?
Even the jesters of the world this a gag to bait those sceptical, outdated presumptions
fall for it every single time
(It's real btw, he got so much attention he minted a proof of stake Ethereum nft. Which is environment-friendly proof of stake. Rather than busywork.)
I'm starting to agree with this provocateur mememister.
So they will use it to bait the high status-seeking snobbishness out. Insulting intellectuals' labour.
Disney is an entertainment company mwurica, this is an academic explanation.And another bonus link of what to do with sociology by Nicolas D Villarreal. Of executive class dreams. That's a Marxist refutation
(bonus link.) Also my reading list As with all things, this is going to deal with anti-science murica left. So it's time to nationalise and away from private equity, and moral panic industry complex. Or heck, Even the Ai denialist industry complex. Heck though, It's got all the intellectuals and dummys like me in a twist.
And I’m sorry to break it to you, but AI is not a scam. There are scammy AI products, scammy AI startups, scammy AI evals, and scammy people trying to staple “AI” onto whatever they were already selling. But the underlying technology is real, and it will change the world.
A serious theory of resistance, therefore, cannot rest on pretending otherwise. You will not understand the impact of AI if you use only the free version of ChatGPT to call it “stupid”. If the current version of AI’s “Project” doesn’t sound appealing to society, I think it is our job to reshape it. But the current plot dismisses that there’s something fundamentally different about GenAI, in particular, LLMs. In the AI Con, Bender and Hanna “reject untestable ‘everything’ machines that are marketed as ‘general purpose technologies’. ” And instead say that we need ‘specific tools geared towards specific tasks.’ This is opposed to the empirical reality of machine learning, sometimes referred to as “the bitter lesson.” And sure, we should be serious about validating systems in the application layer — but pretending generality itself is a scam will not help us govern the technology we actually have."
Despite some sympathy, ideologically these may be the sentiments
as all the hoopla goes away.
The conservative mental model are tilting at windmills of futility of how capital operates with free-market perverse incentives
Liberal mental model is that it's a status game turned up to 11.
Dialectical communist mental model it's the Pied Piper making the Artisan class reactionary. Denying the productive forces for the petit-bourgies socialism as he said within German ideology.
Deontological will be you can't de-humanise yourself from mistreating the intrinsic justness welfare of a subject.
as all political stripes will see the fad of the lunch table.
This is to not to say tech can't have bad side and abuses. (Agriculture for one) Yet, I can't take this boycott/activism seriously anymore.
Irenicist I must go! To irenicsim, the denialism ends. Or it rests within the dank depths of social media technology.
Then nationalise this like Switzerland is doing, so regulation of the scienctists can begin, not the clowns.
Welp, Murica with banning the internet archive still exist. Link
"We are afraid future actions could inadvertently or intentionally regulate or even ban open source, a much maligned and misunderstood topic in AI. That would be a grave mistake.
Open source – simply a process that allows technology to be shared, built, and distributed publicly and transparently – is safe, secure, and drives economic growth. More than 90% of the world’s software was already built on open source and produced more than 8 trillion dollars worth of economic benefits, long before AI entered the picture. Today, open source technology is quietly training, improving, deploying, and securing AI everywhere."
This natural language coding, along with its polysemy, will keep me irenic'n neutral. With all the VC, I kindly ask for you to consider this manifesto in cyberspace. To down the troll apologists
Please be more irenic and apathetic of the fanaticism.
Less derogatory slurs of the bros of microblog artist.
I cannot answer for the industry, especially on social media.
Why do I owe you all of this? Why am I responsible?
Why? With this rejection of a polemic of pro-anti hegelian now needed when we must express curiosity to our coming age. To be with the means of the production
Well, this is likely not going to talk shop, I can give them this. Or why I don't debate such a polemic. Unserious!
2. Side note, I haven't used AI in this, merely my natural cognitions and critical
