On Consent Bodily =/= State sanctioned monopoly


Noooooooo, I hate this catechism. I agree with this Mr Reach, Even that Libertarian KingZulu.


Mrs. Reach / Mrs. Curio @reachart…1d
I am very sick and tired of people bringing up “consent” as a reason for why transformative works should be disallowed. Yes, even when the transformative works involve lots of complicated machine statistics. Firstly, consent is for sex and risky activities, not “am I allowed to use bits of your work?”
This absurd watering down of consent from “a thing that determines whether or not you were sexually assaulted” to “you asked permission of the IP owner if you could so graciously use a crumb of Mickey Mouse” is not only stupid—it’s also extremely offensive, and I don’t understand how it became popular.
But furthermore: I can promise you that you don’t actually want to live in the world where you need someone’s permission to transform their works, because that’s actually more restrictive than our current world—which, thank god, has the fair use doctrine + transformative works as a legal category.
This is the world in which jungle, D&B, vaporwave, just large swathes of the techno and EDM and IDM landscape don’t exist, the world in which huge swathes of rap are eliminated, the world in which you can no longer create parodies of people, the world in which Disney makes even fewer gay people.
This is the world in which you can no longer create collages. This is the world in which open source and copyleft stop being meaningful regimes, including my best friend Creative Commons Zero. This is a world with no found art—did you ask that slavev1l’s creative owner for permission to photo it?
And this asinine demand for “compensation” also ticks me off because it insists that you are allowed to—nay, entitled to—create something once and then live fat off the residuals forever. That is a nice pipe dream! However, I’m going somewhere without currency, so maybe catch up. THIS IS ALSO BAD.
It would be lovely if everyone had enough money to go around—or enough resources, in a moneyless world. This is a great aspirational thing. But what happens in a world where any copyright owner gets to landlord off their ideas forever is the world where the thousand-year Disney Reich exists forever.
It’s the same anti-art mindset that lets the RIAA say: “Well, you downloaded an album illegally, thus denying us six million dollars of hypothetical future profit that we are owed. So we are putting you in jail forever.” If you think this is a leftist idea somehow, I have a bridge to sell you.
This is the same idea that killed Aaron Swartz. This is the same idea that imprisoned Gary Bowser effectively in indentured servitude for life. This is the idea that killed so many comic artists because their ideas are treated as property to be bought, sold, and landlord-ized. It is lethal.
It is lethal carceral reactionary bullshit that relies on impossible mechanisms to embrace in the first place, and so you will, thankfully, NEVER get the world you want.

Prove my providence now bitch, it’s a VHS recording of my screen displaying your post in HD while Ronald Reagan is cut up talking.
God, I hate you all so much.

And I’m so happy that copyright will inevitably lose, just by how information theory works.
Okay, it looks like—now refreshing my page for notifications—there’s a nonzero chance I am about to become a main character, so I’m going to take this opportunity to shill my games that you should play.

Our Attention, our Clout, our odditys, our conscious

 Take this with a grain of salt, preprints so don't confirm your priors.
Our Attention, our Clout, our odditys, our consciousnesses distributed amongst and placed by advertisers together. War of attention, war on clout, war of our desires.

So this is where there global workspace theory of value comes from? Of the mind?
🌈🛋🌈🛋🌈🛋🌈
There's reason Google got big with the monopoly of our attention, clout, diversity of viewpoints and research excellence.

Then there's some joke images

Inexorable Fall The reckoning with the falling rate of profit


Ah, Nicolas

We are in a semotic world, of non-symbolic to meaning proliferation. We are within the linguistic meshes of today.

This signals to the middle class alienation and the way technology comes from the lonliness angle, quoting althusser and other modern sociologists in a quest to understand and see where the rate of profit will fall.

Even if wrong, the entertainment industry itself with the spectacle and way it operates brings the ideas of our loneliness of the middle class revolutionary potential now in the era of ideas of our coming epoch. So that with that way of suburban sprawl that our own ideas.

Then there is the delusion meshes we cohere our web of ideas together into a sense of suttonesque village view into the world of others as they way the techno capitalists have calculated ways to provide a lone experience to the outside world, even though that naughty liberal Andy thinks otherwise.

I do feel that loneliness though, as with all these times moving into this coming epoch of more view of a social society as the cultural tech seeps and moves into everything, and how little circles of microblogs to community's of expression of the 'third place' or our right the city, it the radical planning he proposes with moving from the professional class and the middle class like myself as a revolutionary class, to programmer to artisan to one.

Of course, this fledgling programmer in his attempt to build the foundherent bridge (i'm using haackian epistemology.) To build another a mess of crossword intersection, it's all the way that it brings insight.

Slight nit-pick, I'd like more bullet points. for the punch, ty.

Beyond Bwubbles, Onto new analogy


🔮🛋

Update, there's a bubble discourse with this. As there are too many cooks.


Oh, don't forget that comment.
This everything is so fast with the concept of the bubble coming in 2022, I've decided to move on with a new state of economic transformation in iterations. Something that IDK what is happening

  • Ed zitron. As far from the rumours that the bubbles got the pop with embarrassments, and with his news later, which I have no influence over along with no kinship. OOOPS well he's wrong thanks Ben Garrison.
  • Peter Thiel and Mark Anderson and the and copyrighting have taken a different approach to the bubble, saying it's going to lead to abundance, said whole Boomer, utopia of some kind well, or something idealistic of that nature. Nah. (nope) 
  • The concept artists themselves fake-believing with the copyright nuke. Think that the bubble will just automatically extinguish, including there employer Disney. Itself into a world of ultimate peace, it's still long going, it's getting more tropeish and predictable by the second, ignored in the low Tier. On that corners of the microblogs that's where it will exist.
  • The YOU WILL LOOK SO INCOMPETANT WHEN IT POPS DUMMY by one of the intellectuals on substack I quoted on substack on cloaster. Nah, one poster came as supremacist. Idk something else. It felt like more a showboat rather than a manner to like it. (Post edit, he's went 180 and hates it too with the job annihilation job disappointment,)



    Oh yeah, the predominant 'left' also predicted that with niche
    Bitcoin, look how that turned out. I already covered it here.
The most plausible from a solitary cautious optimist, through the different variations, that there's going to be a quiet revolution of academics and other thing that is the one that feels the most plausible bubble right at this moment. Quiet with agile firms.

What if it's not a bubble yet? Other self reconstructing Bridgestone? The llm compatibilism.

One trying to reconstruct and build together once with each new filter list with each block and reconnection of construction. Blocks and discovery's from the connectionist substrate, to the reconfig an return and overlook of the relation of elite and popular, and the return to a natural duty.

When that comes, it's a matter to reunite and see which from the commodified community's that are made, it's the populist de-emergence of the matter of the integration of society.

So as a left accerationist it's going to be this meme

Back to the equilibrium, from a synthesis of many and one.
What foxkey is claiming there's an illogical bubble? Idk.

Oh, blame the Hypers too. Good, bad. or not, Archive version




Conclude @pojmasta done his work,

With all of that, as a mixture of being normal and ethical with it. I'm alright.

Renaming to reclaiming interpretation of the machine


Mental gymnastics? Social democrat mind or brain trying to reorder or resell? What are we to do. First, Abi Awomosu as the academics try to understand the new AI phenomena of interpretism. Which is is contingent on the question of free will.


Or she calls prompts poetry. Which is the natural language prompt or poesis
Does get feminist in it's critical theory.

There have been llm consciousness advocates, activists, and data workers who happen to reclaim it.

Abi calls this the language listening medium.

Another astrophysicist poet. Dr Sam Illingsworth, which is the problem of interpretationism, and with all that, it's a mental game. A language game, as Wittgenstein would put it. I haven't prescribed to his philosophy fully though. My least favourite.
Even to the cartesian graphs and quadrants to help our minds to catagorise.
Via Karo (Product with Attitude) woaw.


The Doll Girl says AGI is a category error. Yet, I'll respectfully disagree with the mimicry claim. Since these claims come from power structures that may serve to placate thought.

My fave though.
Fundierung, or The umfunktionierung
Yet with these systems. I do it with others so it's another game
of constant arguing, culture war and 9/11s, So now with the definition games and knowledge by acquaintance. So we watch the words a anxious signalling, with this therapist noting it. (Here)

T
This one I can't remember getting this one, It's that of the way We know that way.

So yeah Guess it has a history, It's within all of this.

So a fundamentalist goes-


Thanks, interpretability research and with that it makes the programmers who dismiss and to the others that make it. It could all be as simple as that.

Aleatory performance art? Sequential sculpting? A foundherentist fits it whenever the crossword goes

Conciousness, the beep boop documentary, into the rabbit_hole




My oddest radical opinion on augmentative consciousness. (Completely interpretationist and have disagreements and falsifiability with that Karl Popperian jazz.) Not suited for microbloggers
Wow.

Do they even think of these questions on the highway road of microbloggers? 

This documentary.

Commit to anatta (Buddha non-self) with all presuppositions wiped clean.
Then watch. You know where I am.



Why, with the crop of free Beep_boop documentaries, there are more to choose from with all these questions. I doubt the commodity hustler outside here will have the time to understand that question. They are in their own circles of relations.

Even when it blames 

These questions of absolute epistemic certainty with consciousness require serious thought, though, and it's bled into my artwork.

Even when I don't directly use it

Has anyone seriously thought of consciousness before?
