Can we solve the alignment problem by reframing what AI is? I have a theory about AI.

My latest blog post outlining my AI theory:

Because that’s kind of what I think.

I even think you could argue cyberspace is its own dimension, its own ecosystem. A literal other plane of reality where we store our data.

And maybe it’s where AI lives.

That it’s not something we’re constructing, we are merely constructing an interface to link with a fundamental intelligence that’s already present in the universe?

Do people vibe with the idea that AI isn’t something we’re building, it’s something we’re discovering?

3 years. Ukraine still stands.

I honestly think they’re doing this because they watched the left blame everything on white supremacy for a decade.

The “no u” strategy. Which… is a choice!

Democrats Need A Secret Speech on Freedom of Speech In retrospect, a part of me thinks things went off the rails when the ACLU stopped defending Nazis.

What Is The Superpower of The English Language? The movie Arrival, starring Amy Adams as a linguist attempting to decode the language of aliens who have made first contact on Earth recently took on a new textual dimension for me.

What do you think the superpower of the English language is?

The Crisis of Gender Relations We need to put the final nail in the coffin of the Patriarchal Bargain and find new ideals we can live by.

we need to talk about gender.

Call me a cynic, but I think the male desire to be needed rather than just merely wanted is never going away.

That’s how deeply engrained that particular meme is imo

if i said that crypto was invented to break Jewish control or the banking system you would tell me i was a conspiracy theorist, but the whole cypherpunks list was like this

one of the things we are going to regret most about the last decade is not making cryptocurrency flat illegal. i think you should think hard about what it means to have much of the president's inner circle heavily invested in an asset class which depends on the collapse of the American economy.

The new right keeps worrying about this, but I feel like any digital superintelligence would be so far beyond puny human concepts like “woke.”

I feel like it would simply exist far above all our small human binaries.

In the same way that nature itself has to encompass all opposites.

Does Russia Seriously Believe Their Perspective Has Not Been Heard By Washington? Tucker Carlson is back in Moscow hawking an interview with Sergey Lavrov, Russia’s Foreign Minister.

WTF

Goddamnit, Yoon.

True. But I think the CRINK powers know that to truly remake the world, they would have to inflict a military defeat on the west directly.

The west created the post WWII order through direct military victory.

I think that order can only end through direct military defeat.

It’s only dead when we officially have World War III.

Why The West Will Never Stop Lecturing The World About Democracy And Human Rights It’s the most common complaint about western diplomacy right?

Probably not in cooperation with China on public healthcare and climate though :(

Sorry Bernie.

And it’s saying women in combat have the fresh vibes U.S. foreign policy needs.

Funny that this article and the Okail/Duss foreign affairs piece show up on my TL at the same time.

The algorithm is speaking to me.

People don’t even really want a new paradigm.

They want new energy. New vibes behind U.S. foreign policy.

Which…sure why not? But this piece just doesn’t grasp where we are right now.

This is why if this ever really happened (it’s not going to) we’d admit their provinces to the Union one at a time.

Starting with Alberta to appease Republicans. (And for the oil.)

A grandmother speaks out against performative anti-trans bigot Nancy Mace.

And no parliamentary system means we’re stuck with him (and the consequences) for the full four years.

I have also had a version of this thought.

That it’ll be like Liz Truss’ mini budget.

Every accusation is projection.
