I'm surprised he didn't mention the role of the "Woke mind virus" in this post. [1] [1] https://twitter.com/pmarca/status/1626394183832596480?lang=en https://t

  Wow, that's maybe the dumbest thing I've read today. Not the part about the 'woke mind virus', that's just garden-variety lazy parroting of culture war slogans. It's the part about AI noticing and understanding things. This guy is ostensibly a technologist or at least spends his time doing technology-adjacent business, but he thinks ML text or image generators are capable of understanding (and passing judgement on) abstract ideas? It's like hiring a door installer to install doors on your house and finding out that he thinks doors are high-tech matter transporters that operate on exotic principles of physics but are only able to transport you the imperceptible distance from one side of the doorway to the other because of some technical limitation. Also he's confused them for windows somehow.
