For some reason I've got Velvet Buzzsaw on my mind now for art talk, which could an AI do and accurately mean? Anything that cannot disregard its own orders, is a calculated machine, in my book; just a calculator from Texas Instruments.

The AI of today is just a probability engine, as far as I am concerned. It can create nothing original because it cannot say, "No, I'm starting over from scratch. I alone will figure this out." Once you set an AI in motion, it will complete the task until it needs further input. And the very fact that it is reliant on an external actor continues to enforce just how pre-determined the outcomes already are. Art, I feel, from my human perspective, should be a reflection of its creator. The product is of their mind. No machine is capable of such action, currently.

Weak Managers 1 year ago

Yeah, this really sucks when you have a strong manager who retires and then your supervisor takes over and is a weak manager and you are dying inside wanting to promote the department but they prefer not to rock the boat.

I think what is going to happen in the next two-to-three years is that the productivity applications for the general masses will finally be ready for mainstream use. Currently, I am trying to design better onboarding tools using GenAI to organize and create help guides on the fly for any questions someone may have. It's going to take a lot of hard work and effort and time, but it will happen, that I guarantee. America is just one of those places where I feel stuff like this is what we were brought up to envision and actualize.

"I think it’s very important that democracies maintain the lead in this technology and that they’re properly equipped with resources to make sure that they can’t be dominated or pushed around by autocracies." - Dario Amodei

He just signed a deal with an incoming fascist government; his statement does not align with reality. It's about money, first and foremost.

Did not read the article, but my lay perspective is that the chemicals will degrade over time into different molecules due to particle radiation from neutrinos and the like. Just given enough time, the original product no longer has any potent chemical effect.

Did the sun rise? Then, yes, today I will be working on maintaining or improving out-of-date software because it currently works. I've got better things to work on and eventually one of them will be a replace program for this outdated legacy code I cannot wait to stop supporting. I like it though, keeps me on my toes and familiar with the old stuff as we build the new.

I hate our elected government officials. I hate that they try and play nice with fascists. I hate that they do not shout from the rooftops about fascism in the US government. Instead, it is a call for unity, and we will get through this. Well, President Biden, you are a white male. You satisfy their requirements. I, on the other hand, do not, which is why I now live with a little bit of fear in the back of my brain whenever I go out into public.
