I am the only one that sees that noise being normalized is training organics neural networks with trash? AI improving exponentially its output while organics being trained with exponential noise? What could go wrong? We need to talk more about cultural noise/trash and weaponization of memes.

I’m sorry but what do you mean by “organics”? …humans? Something makes me deeply sad about that terminology.

Yep. We ended the "intelligence" monopoly, so we are in an organics vs synthetics duality era.

The sad part might be that our culture had mostly optimized people's intelligence to not think about an immortal soul that uses (at least 1) organic body to manifest itself in the world but to reduce itself to the organic form explaining all the limits of its existence. And now comes AI, the algebraic parrots exponentially accelerated to steal its kingdom.

Tip: You need to have just 1 lucid out of body experience to understand that "organics" are infinitely more than carbon-based life forms.

Did anyone watch that video and think "hilarious"?

I thought this one was pretty good, hilarious no, but I liked it:

Interesting to me that their IG posts usually get decent amounts of engagement but comparably, their AI ads failed miserably for engagement.

Kojima was playing with the idea back in 2001:

It's probably a trope from even older sci-fi, though I don't know which.

Is a good question to ask that deeply. AI it's just automated parrots with good aim. So, no, not really. But the fool most people because "they sound" as if they were intelligent (while they are just parroting).
