One of the greatest sociopaths in history claiming society must embrace lobotomisation to appease his imaginary god.

Financial obesity is neurotoxic, and anyone afflicted should be quarantined from the decision making processes which affect those not contaminated.

The opinion of anyone impressed by the function or output of a LLM enough to believe it is in any way adjacent to intelligence should be summarily dismissed, and ridiculed should they persist.

The efficacy of a system should be prioritised above its efficiency.

Pursuing efficiency exclusively, or even primarily, leads to excessive optimisation and brittle systems. Sustainability requires efficiency to be balanced with resilience, which requires redundancy.

Resources sitting idle is only wasteful if your goal is maximal extraction.

Sans Intelligence.

Any organisation that is permitted to regulate or investigate itself is intrinsically corrupt and unfit for purpose.

Wireless data links should be the exclusive domain of temporary, nomadic and/or sacrificial links.

If the channel is permanent, static, or critical; as much of the path as practicable should be provisioned with constrained energy transmission.

You’re proving my point, jog on.

Intelligence requires possession and/or demonstration of comprehension, something LLMs are intrinsically incapable of.

If you insist on classifying LLMs as ‘AI’, I’ll concede they are proficient Algorithmic Iterators.

The opinion of anyone impressed by the function or output of a LLM enough to believe it is in any way adjacent to intelligence should be summarily dismissed, and ridiculed should they persist.

It’s not even pure Al, but a ‘Weird’ combination alloy.

Slopvangelical LLM thumping underpants gnomes conjuring cancer to cure cancer.

Financial obesity is neurotoxic, an existential threat to any society that tolerates it, and needs to cease being celebrated, rewarded, and positioned as an aspirational goal.

Corporations are the only ‘persons’ which should be subjected to capital punishment, but trillionaires should be forced to transition into billionaires, and billionaires should be euthanised through taxation.

Can’t get burnt if you’re completely reflective.

Elon Musk is the personification of a moron’s hallucination of a genius.

This is exactly why economics, or any discipline, should not be permitted to dictate the function or structure of a system in a domain outside of its area of expertise.

It’s an older clip, sir, but it checks out.

That could be a perverse incentive to have businesses curtail their excretions.

Advertising is the most prolific form of environmental pollution wrought by commerce.

It needs to become as socially acceptable as smoking, and every instance of it must be exhaustively scrutinised and required to be justified.

As an intellectual discipline, economics is closer to theology than physics, with finance an entirely arbitrary, cherry picked subset of rules to justify a particular economic model.

Economics is the control mechanism that filled the void in society, vacated by religion, after the Enlightenment. Every economic model is functionally equivalent to any flavour of religion, just with a little extra accounting blended in.

We did away with one unhinged narrative construct, things can’t get better until the current dominant fantastical conjuring is dispelled.

20 years ago, technically competent people had an integral role in the development and use of tech. That position is now infested with people who think economics is a science and money is real.
