This issue exists in art and I want to push back a little. There has always been automation in art even at the most micro level. Take for example (an extreme example) the paintbrush. Do you care where each bristle lands? No of course not. T

I’m in favor of the dead internet because the alternative was even worse. About 10 years ago we had a scenario where bots probably were only 2-5% of the conversation and they absolutely dominated all discussion. Having a tiny coordinated mi

One thing I genuinely hate about modern tech is that it punishes you for planning ahead. I purposely spent time getting a password manager and implementing 2fa protocols that would both speed up my time and keep me safe. Then suddenly every

Actors have known this for decades: self-expression isn’t only a stage problem. It’s a life problem. Most people fail to express themselves on an hourly basis. Being good at expressing yourself is unnatural. Having clarity of what “yourself

The first iterations of the apple keyboard were perfect. They literally did everything perfectly without any notes. Then it seems like they’re started teaching to the bottoms of the class and added a bunch of terrible decisions: Substitutin

Ngl I feel like most people only accept these criticisms of AI because they’re against AI to begin with. If you look at the claims, they fall apart pretty quickly. The environment issue is negligible and has less to do with AI than just com

Karpathy recently did an interview where he says that the future of AI is 1b models and I honestly believe him. The small models are getting better and better, and it’s going to end up decentralizing power moreso than anything else

How did this article get so many upvotes? Even among articles that pine for the good old days, this article is trash. Like 80% of it is just saying “remember that movie? And the things we thought were meaningful back then?” The idea that mo

Wait so is it possible to pass a message using AI and does this matter? Like let’s imagine I have an AI model and only me and my friend have it. I write a prompt and get back the vectors only. No actual output. Then I send my friend those v

I haven’t read the book, but I’m almost always suspicious of criticism targeted at books like this. Let’s say I write a textbook about biology and I write the sentence: “The Mitochondria are the powerhouse of the cell” Technically what I’m

I’m almost certain that if we were to do a test, less than 10% of 60+ year olds would be able to identify a messed up aspect ratio.

What I’m most surprised by is how visually illiterate the older generations seem to be. As a video editor, I’ve encountered multiple moments where an older person is incapable of even noticing that we’ve cut from one angle to another, and t

I was almost willing to accept that Rene Girard had some academic value until I read more about him. It's hilarious to me that he writes an entire book arguing that scapegoating people is wrong and Christianity has single-handedly prev

I think this is actually an easy question to answer because you’ve accidentally preselected your demographics. Imagine this: among primates, there is an even distribution of species of differing levels of intelligence. All the primates who

What kind of insane racist dog whistle is this? If you’re gonna come on here and make a crazy insinuation like that you better actually have some educational foundation. Do you know anything about the history of West Africa? Ever read a sin

This has some serious bugs. I just tried to play 2.16 is the group alive. It told me I was wrong for saying black was alive when it clearly had two eyes. Then I tried 2.17 and it showed me a screen of a black formation that has two eyes, bu

Ok so what is this publication? Because apparently they’ve been around since the 90s. I’ve never heard of them though. Their title and its reference suggests a very strong philosophical stance about something and I imagine that because of t
