#and AI being programmed

[magspag]

kind of feel like the line between the angels and AI isn't that distinct, since breaking the rules and being changed forever are still tied together in each situation

been thinking about fantasy/scifi rule systems and free will

of all the arguments around ai that i agree with none of them have actually made me artistically interested in it that much, i think i value seeing inspirations and allusions and cohesiveness in art quite a lot and while people making art with ai can do those things the addition of ai adding a layer of inscrutable cultural abstraction kinda makes it not ever hit for me even for the pieces that i see might be genuinely interesting. its the same reason i don't really use it myself i find greater control over my artistic messaging to be important to me as an artist and ai takes that control away from me. the commentary on art it can be used to create is certainly evocative tho

[highvern]

using ai is lame idc who it is or what you’re doing

okay but like here's the thing with chatgpt. outside of the negative environmental impact chatGPT and similar programs have, there is also a high chance that whatever you have it do for you is wrong. sometimes it is something small and inconsequential, but it can also be dangerously wrong. because what it does is it's looking on the internet for a source, and it will give you whatever source it finds (seemingly at random? i'm not 100% sure how chatGPT works but it seems very much like it's just picking something and spitting it out). i'm not even that old and i'm still an average college age but i remember commercials and ads telling people to not trust things you see on the internet because you don't know what is or isn't true. you might come across something that seems entirely legit, but is complete and total bullshit. that is something to keep in mind when using chatGPT that i think people don't consider. it may be wrong. it very likely is wrong. you won't be certain that it's wrong unless you ask it for its sources and examine them yourself which at that point you may as well just be doing your own research without AI anyways.

I think there's more to Caine's reason for getting rid of Gummigoo. Surely, he can tell the difference between a npc and a human player? I think the real threat comes from the npcs and the humans getting too close, perhaps finding a way to escape or there's another danger to the npcs figuring out the truth of their reality that we don't know of yet.

The level to which AI has infected academia not just on a student level but also in the teaching sphere and in doctorate level research spaces is going to have catastrophic consequences that I can’t even fully conceptualize right now and yet I continue to be confronted by it every day

listen i think if you look at it there are genuine things "ai" (just gonna skate right parts how i hate these arguments flattening the realities of generative models, llms, etc.) has contributed to the worsening of and yea those things already existed and like... its tangibly bad, its a tool that can do a lot of bad things and we should maybe prepare our moral systems to even comprehend those things... and yet people's best arguments against it is misunderstood trivia, IP law, and some christian bullshit. and their solution is to blow it up forevers, like i personally really don't wanna use ai for much but these arguments are not swaying me at all. do yall know "ai" has been part of making your gpu drivers for years or are we all stupid here, this is so philosophically dire that we don't even know what we're talking about and a person pointing out inconsistencies in your beliefs gets painted as "pro-ai" like if you think that there's even a meaningful definition of ai there's still no way to necessarily be pro or anti, it's a thing that exists and people use. form a single opinion that isn't completely annoyingly totalizing

I'm just saying maybe you shouldn't talk about the Luddites if you actually refuse to engage with their historical struggle and the reasons for it and instead just perpetuate the bourgeois propaganda about them and somehow act that's the materialist take. get fucking serious please.

[shadelorde]

we (the ywp users) MADE the ‘anti nanowrimo’ tag. we were the ones who really used it. but guess no one cares until it’s about a hot button issue that everyone can jump in on and not “ew icky grooming makes me uncomfortable :( “

i explained vocaloids to my mother jdhdbsb

[diceroulette]

i could write a whole autism-filled essay about Ai LAS being extensively BPD-coded but also i fear i'd get rocks thrown at me .

EDIT: ALSO TO BE CLEAR I HAVE BPD I HAVE BPD THIS IS WRITTEN BY A BPD HAVER I FORGOT TO FUCKING ADD THAT LMFAO

I still think Mass Effect's differentiating approach between "Artificial Intelligence" (true sentient sapient learning growing digital Intelligence) and "Virtual Intelligence" ('fake' intelligence, an Advanced Software, a glorified interactive database interface-slash-personal assistant, limited functionality) would be very useful in current AI discourse because it's correct that we do not have AI. We have VI. The problems come from pretending VI is the same as AI, insisting it's the same as AI, expecting it to perform like AI, and expecting it to understand like AI. but I'm just hollerin at walls

What is going on with Vader in the night of forts

with the whole ao3 data scraping, i've bit the bullet and made the executive decision to lock all my ao3 fics

From now on, you'll need an ao3 account to read any of my fics. ao3 accounts are free but, from my knowledge, it'll take about a week before you get your invite for the account. I know a bunch of people are making their works private now because of ai nonsense so I'd recommend getting an account as soon as you can if you want to continue reading fic on ao3 without interruption (Plus, you can bookmark stuff so much easier and get email notifs for fics you wanna follow!!)

I really don't like how I have to do this but i don't want my works used to train ai. I'd love to continue having my fics out there for you guys, but i simply can't risk it. I may look through alternatives for sharing works through offline files and such but I don't currently have any options

thanks so much for understanding !!
