The real answer to "which came first, the chicken or the egg" - a long line of chicken-like creatures hatched from an egg before the first ever chicken hatched from an egg. Why lea…

The idea is: we could have / have had some ideal situation but some X comes later and ruins it. If we didn't have a strategy for X in the first place did we build the right thing? …

I wish that those who support #2 looked a lot less like #3. For that matter, I wish those who were pro-AI were more strictly supportive of #1.

I so wish this were true. Put AI in the title, garner instant attention.

Yeh, I might have went overboard with the snark here. It seems even the line hinting that this was snarky was lost. If it helps, imagine the text more as a work of art than an inst…

Better the enemy you know than the one you do not. That false? And how is it we know as much about closed models as we do about the open ones?

It is, quite frankly, completely wrong that this man was arrested—if anything, by this line of reasoning, it should have been an artist instead—since AI, as we are told, merely mak…

Support continued development of AI in the open. Support use of local or small scale AI. Your usage, support, and attention matters.

Regulate so that you price out equal access to it. Small players can't afford cost of regulation. Then create a layer around that which all small players pay into so they can parti…

There's a lot of detail lost when you collapse towards "everyone". Some portion of that set is not the same as the other part of it, but both make sounds. People get up in arms acc…

Why can't we have a system where this is baked in?

I think it’s important that systems like this exist, but getting them off the ground is non-trivial. We’ve been building something similar for image/video models for the past few m…

It's unfortunate that we have so few words for where we are in history right now. AI is AI is AI to some. A lot gets lost in that collapse. Thanks for seeing it, though. It's very …

Hello. I'm Harrison. I wanted to be an artist when I grew up, but instead I became a software developer. Parascene is my first attempt at exploring "social network" and "doom scrol…

Hi HN — I am building Parascene as a place to create and share different kinds of art. It supports AI-generated images, algorithmic/generative art, and traditional artwork. The goa…

My bad. I don't think it was you that set me off. I was just butt-hurt for getting my Herbert quote downvoted. Not your fault, I think. On a better day, I would have spoken with gr…

I had almost forgotten that one. Thanks for reminding me!

I can guess that you like this exercise and you seem to be adept at it. I can't help but think you are my kind of people in that regard. Kudos!

Love the color that a real life story adds, and yours definitely is colorful. Thanks for sharing. I moved recently. My hardware acquisition loop still has me in tangles. Where exac…

Do what you want. I take it that it's a crime around hear to encourage people to not be afraid so shame on me. It's a light-hearted reference to a quote from the Dune books/movies.…

I certainly will. I already have this on my stack. Will feedback + thanks!

Public Schools. I think terror there is built as a feature, not a bug. So be afraid. But keep in mind, it may have always been this way. God bless those few cool teachers in each s…
