I don't feel like working today, so I'm not going to. I talked with someone in the park today that claimed that all of reality could be broken down into a model that was either "secure", "vital", or "anxious" based on language and I thought it was a bit hooey ("what if I come up with a counter example that is a combination of all three?" "what if I come up with a counter example that is neither?" "what if I come up with a combination of counter examples that lead to blind spots in the ideology?"). Anyway, my own philosophy is itself open to debate - and if counter examples can be used to disprove the theory they should be (which is itself part of the theory, for what that's worth). This is interesting. So supposing that this guy's theory is wrong, the idea of "robustness" and "vitality" may be correlated in such a way that it would be a "good enough" heuristic model to break up an AI into problem domains, even if it is wrong (and it's simple enough to be useful). And yes, this reminds me of the movie True Lies for stupid reasons shut up. Meaning that this may have been thought of before now in a different context. To the extent that language itself can motivate thought that may mean that a set theoretic approach based on k-partite samples of language has already been researched going back a ways and then the question becomes what examples of other language as emotion are there that are k-partite enough that they would be useful? If we use "secure", "vital", "anxious" as "this works we should use it", "this we should re-factor the model with", and "this we should throw away from the training set" is there a more complicated set of factors that can be used and for what models would this be useful? This, specifically, is for AI and for people I believe the world is much too complicated (and it would be a seriously bad ethical violation). Then you come into the rokos basilisk problem of "if AI becomes as conscious as a human being at what point is performing operations on a computer going to be such that what you would ethically not do to a person you couldn't consider ethically doing to a human being?"

First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist. Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a trade unionist. Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew. Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me. —Martin Niemöller
It's occurred to me that in many respects this seems to be the world we live in. Funnily enough there is an analogy between the port of Odessa being one of the largest ports of prostitution in the EU, and of course the middle east being where many priests are. It would be painting with a broad brush to say that the analogy can be extended to the wars overseas, but to what extent is the categorical thinking of not believing in the types of people for whom you live around and what their interests are matters? We spent a bit of time talking about what to do with the abandoned building across from the park that is a city block on a side. I'm still a proponent of a land value tax. I'm certain that there was a joke being made about my website being colorful (in the park while I was reading my book) as a joke on 50 shades of grey and I don't care. I could certainly make it look black and white by adding a filter to it - should I? why or why not? I'll just randomize the colors instead. As soon as I say that I should speak out on behalf of the rights of everyone I'll have people see if they can make an exception to the rule or test if it's true in order to get me to repudiate what I said. It's just annoying.
Putting hand sanitizer on my hands at the library in the Italian neighborhood will have homeless people go outside while wearing snow hats with the fuzz ball on top while a motorcycle gang goes past and then the chinese guy next to me putting out his right food like he's driving a car. So there's that. 3:13 PM at whatever the fuck they call this. You can be a moron if you'd like and then I can tell everyone in San Francisco. Good job. I'm going to go around and rub my hands together and put hand lotion on them and then record what everyone else does. I get to say what I want. And so do you. I get to call you an obnoxious twat on the internet though. If you're annoying and passing around sick so people end up being ill it's a large part of the reason that all the buildings are abandoned. It's probably COVID to sick chinese people that are seeing if they can make me ill or wipe sick on the keyboards. Ugh. If "COVID" is a thing I must have gotten it I don't know how many times. San Francisco is "sick".
Interestingly, asking Google AIstudio to give me a breakdown of the US budget gives a more thorough answer but it's less willing to give me numbers than Microsoft copilot. Correlate "secure", "vital" and "anxious" based on the three wise men from Evangelion anime. I'm assuming that's it's a form of crazy. When asked about technicals from his project the guy that was good at philosophy ended up acting uncomfortable and losing his train of thought...In any case this here is what the AI for Google looks like if you ask it a question it doesn't know how to understand - it hangs -
And...it went through. But it took a minute. Interesting. Also - dumb thing. I didn't know AIstudio existed! Just what came from the search engine. So I didn't know that this model was available as compared to the bing model the entire time! So without talking to this guy that was working on a project which probably doesn't work (eh so what) I wouldn't have known this. In any case complaining about this and then having all of the wingnuts read my website just encourages the crazy people that will then put one foot out in front of them after making me sick. The way that I think that this works is that they'll have someone sicken you and then wander around with a boot on their foot for a week or something so they don't run around like crazy because they're ill and then whenever they want to get something out of you from making you sick they'll put their foot out in front of them. I have no idea what to call this form of crazy. It's absolutely bizarre. You're my foot! (or something?). Do they think that they're driving an invisible car? OH! Found another one which amused me. So C3PO is "religion/tower of babel/tower records" and screwing with someone to a "cross word" (wherein OMG has "OBEY" as the O and so on where each word has a crossed word or phrase that ends up being longer) and then R2D2 is a garbage can that's "science/amoeba records/sick". So that's another thing. Although R2D2 could also be binary (of course). One of the things that I was going to put a note that I should look at is to see if I could take all of R2D2's beeps and see if I could convert that into song notes and look for hidden patterns to songs and albums of that time period. More of a one off. And that's all for today.
Couple more things. People are doing the indian licking their lips yum face and conflating it with the ramen guy on the maruchan package so that's weird and stupid. So based on like black guys getting ramen in the shelter which is stupid and creepy stalking shit. More importantly the de Haro church coffee most likely had fentanyl in it which they had put out where I drank from it and then had my food spiked so that I was then carrying heavy bags of potatoes of the poor and now my back hurts today. And I gave away the food that they gave me to the poor in the shelter. So that's incredibly creepy and fucked up. And I wonder why no one likes them? Oh and the guy I talked to "made a 100,000 in 'Singapore'" when I was out on the grass in the Italian neighborhood here in San Francisco today, which is the amount that I posted on Hackernews that amazon web services overcharged me when I was using AWS (because they're too stupid to use a throttle on the service). Other dumb shit. The Matrix is "ma trix" is trix is for kids, The King is "Captain Crunch" is fentanyl is fucking up your back, and Coco Pebbles is "bam bam" is UC Davis is all the idiots that are now playing the stupid game with a volley ball and a trampoline after I complained. So all that happened. And now the library is closed goody. and this is what comes from my thoughts on spider silk https://copilot.microsoft.com/shares/aV2HznN9bSpdoPrK1VyUr
