Superhuman doesn't mean divine. It can be superhuman in its ability to control and oppress. The danger is that AI will be devilishly creative and wrap the majority of the humanity with a logically perfect ideology that equates humans w

"Overall, meaningless work commits a Spiritual Violence against a person. It's an attack on something not just physical, not just mental, but on something that is the essence of being. It wears away our sense of self." The au

A few ideas: 1. Talk to some decent designers. The wooden frame feels a bit dull. Make the frame customizable. 2. This isn't just a calendar, but a todo list where you and your wife can add things to buy or to do, from your phones. Thi

When this becomes possible, prisons will become very compact: a micro SD card to trap one's consciousness.

"Some" means half of the nation. Just look up the wealth distribution charts on FRED: half of the nation's wealth belongs to 1%, and half of the nation owns just 1% of the wealth. What's worse is that the top 1% aren&#x2

This "minecraft" is what the NK rulers consider art: order and simplicity. The lifeless vibe must be a part of what they consider beautiful.

Architecture at large scale is built by the rich, it's the product of their minds. They could decorate it any way they want, but they choose not to, as it "doesn't add value", "it's not efficient" and &quo

The problem with 4 day work week is it leaves workers with energy they can spend on other things. Good for the workers, bad for those exploiting those workers.

DEI is a lot like a headless religion that nobody's asked for. It's headless because instead of talking about spirit or similar high matters, it says "you are your body" and proceeds to divide people based on a few visib

A human body can be in a zombie state while doing something. So a human can do something while unconscious, although we may rightfully call such a body not a real human. Conscious experience begins when that human connects to his body.

UK is a dying state, like the Roman empire, once mighty, now is a small tourist destination. When the good will leaves a nation to its own devices, what's left is a disorganized group of men and women held together by tyranny of a dyin

I meant the actual search results will be mangled to show ads. And that's where llms come into play: they can merge a quote from wikipedia with a pharma-sponsored ad.

Injecting ads into the actual search results looks egregious today, but will be the norm later.

First we need to define it. I suspect that the failure to define consciousness or explain what our mind does is rooted in the unproven fact that some ideas cannot be reasoned about, cannot be expressed in thoughts, they can only be understo

What does it even mean to lie for a text generator? It outputs the most probable continuation of the given input and that continuation is indeed the most probable in its training dataset. We don't say that DNA sequences are true or fal
