That’s the power of not saying anything interesting, you can’t contradict it

We’ve actually already done that. KFC can’t legally call itself kentucky fried chicken anymore because they don’t serve “chicken”. Instead it’s a GMO non-chicken animal that fits all the criteria you mentioned. Open your third eye

Ah yeah the folding mechanism which just appeared one day out of nowhere, invented by nobody for no reason.

I’ve said what I said came here to say. Meanwhile, you haven’t said anything at all.

AI is a garbage generating plagiarism machine. It’s not political

Yes. Think about what it is plagiarising. Datasets are biased; this is like statistics/ML 101.

outside of a single country where everything has to look political to prevent people from voting independent,

You can just say the country, and also, this doesn't really make any sense. Am I to infer that, if things weren't political, people would vote (a famously political action) for independents?

and the only regulation AI ever needs is one declaring all it produces a derivative work of all the material it used for learning.

I'm pretty sure there's a lot more wrong with LLMs than just plagiarism.

Any attempts to ascribe further properties to that remixing machines are just natural intelligence equivalent of slop.

I'm not 100% sure what you mean here.

Anything worth talking about is political. What the hell are you on about?

JFC. Thank you so much for this.

But actually, real internet truthers know that the above is a revisionist version of history put forth as a psyop by russian troll farms, in addition to inventing AI chatbots and adding fluoride to water. This is all to weaken and feminise western men and turn them communist.

The evidence? owo actually comes from the Russian word "хорошо", meaning "good" or "ok", and its usage is normalising russian language in today's tiktok-pilled youth. This was a strategy cooked up by known cult leader Rajneesh, of course known in Russia as Ошо. Of course, uwu comes from the Russian word "Ушу" which is a secret programming command for the proletariat to learn Wushu and other forms of chinese/communist martial arts so that people can rise up and seize the means of production.

So my understanding is that uwu/UwU originates as a kaomoji, think (^.^) and (O.O) etc. Using the 'w' character to render the mouth starts as a furry thing or a general projection of human expression onto common animals like cats or dogs. (You'll see the omega symbol used in examples as well.)

Over the last 20-30 years or so of online interaction etc. kaomoji start to gain a sort of cringe notoriety alongside RP chatting, culminating in a few catalysing memes/copypastas.

Eventually "owo" and "uwu" start being read aloud/vocalised, similar to how people starting saying "lol" out loud, and this is associated I guess with a cutesy sort of image, though that image is often corrupted or subverted- for example e-girls, who co-opt a lot from of gaming and anime subcultures, lean into the uwu of it all.

Menawhile: tenga stock prices soar because apparently their toys are so good that a guy was willing to kill for them to be banned

 

Don't expect a good or deep analysis of FTX or any TREACLESy stuff here.
