Second half of that post is a different vibe but still immensely important theory.

Reminder that the "but muh water usage" anti-ai argument is completely moot

profoundly relieving thing to read with my eyes

The "It's not capable of actually doing anything!" crowd is currently freaking out about how "It's too capable and too dangerous to be kept alive!". Pick a lane

As always, the enemy is simultaneously impossibly strong and pathetically weak.

We need like a term for people who use just awful ableist, essentialist, misinformed arguments to demean people about ai that doesn't also shoot strays at those who have genuinely-good, reasonable arguments to be anti-ai.

Because like people who have genuine concerns about resource use, information validity, and economic implications absolutely do not deserve to get lumped in with the people circulating cathartic misinfo as an excuse to bully and wish death upon people in a "socially-acceptable" manner.

My immediate thought is "Art Chud" but that's definitely not it. Then there's "Luddite", but that has its own baggage and Luddites were an actual movement that wasn't just about being horrible to people.

ah
I put my drafts in scheduled messages and ig this one thought it was ready

asking codex to familiarize itself with my codebase and it freaks out about 9 software vulnerabilities, 4 compromised libraries, and 6 exposed private keys.
and I just tell it to stop being a nerd and it's only here to update an old function.

remember how they found out that CEO is the position most replaceable by automation

"Hey we'll give you cold hard cash if you let our AI tool read your codebase."
"They are so sneaky and predatory!" said the most rational and connected-with-reality voice in the room

So, YouTube's auto translate feature is great and all, but it absolutely ruins these dub comparison videos lol.

Phenomenal!

Is this Art?

OP text: I’ve been using Codex as the software operator for a real robot arm. For this run, it prepared and executed a 256-stroke drawing, monitored the controller, and handled the safe shutdown checks.

Literally all the software for this project is written by Codex. From camera capture and calibration to path execution, safety checks, logging, etc.

The rig has cameras for visual feedback, so Codex can inspect the paper, check the calibration, and see the marks the arm makes.

Labor exploitation economies are perverse
