  • I like “AI” like I like plastic. Technologically it’s amazing! It allows us to do many things that would have been impossible or very difficult before!It has many different uses! Average people use it terribly! Business people use it for awful things! It is poisoning our reality in a pervasive manner that will persist long after I am dead!

    So yes and when it became overly marketable.

    I also really enjoyed when “AI” models made distinctly uncanny images rather than “realistic” soulless images. I have an image of a weird-looking baby and a chicken-man screaming at each other and it is distinctly hyper-perceptual. Good times! (update: I found it)


  • Magenta is a mass delusion. It has no wavelength, it exists only because of the boundaries in our perception.

    We aren’t able to see the world as it is, and yet hubris is so baked into the very essence of our being that our brains invent something to deny it. That is majenta. It is an egregore of vision, something we have dreamed into being and subsequently found ourselves made hostage to. It is a stalwart guardian protecting our feeble minds from the unfiltered reality of the world.

    If humanity has a god, then that god is Majenta.

    And the printers want to take it from us!!











  • I had a really nice washing machine. Then it broke. The manufacturer was dissolved 25 years ago.

    I had a really nice cast iron pan. Then it fractured. Modern cast iron pans aren’t smooth.

    I had a really nice car. Then a part broke. Replacement parts haven’t been available for 50 years.

    I had a really nice flip phone. It was made by Nokia so it still works. People think it’s weird that I use a flip phone.

    I had a really nice peace and quiet. Then someone invented ambulances. Now I cower in the corner of my bedroom hiding from manmade horrors beyond my comprehension.
