There are three times more christian zionists in the USA than there are jewish zionists living in Israel.
There are so many, that they're a significant voting block.
These people believe Israel starting a war with Arab countries in the region will hasten the return of Jesus.
Those tens of billions a year Israel receives in military aid are not a coincidence. They are being pushed by a fundamentalist religious cult.
And a very smug one, i might add. ;)

Neoliberalism made everything into an asset economy. We don’t produce stuff, we collect rent by owning stuff others use, and those rents fund campaigns of politicians who are expected to make value of stuff go up.

Thank you.
If my credit card is getting blocked by automated systems for donating to valid and verified campaigns, wouldn’t this be a potential signal for foul play by anti-palestinian operators that have access to international payment systems?
If you hear of other such occasions, could you please update me about the situation. I’d like to hear how this will play out.

@npub1p09…m5vl Hey Aral.
I had my credit card blocked from donating to campaigns listed on gazaverified.org
Some people came out to point to me that many campaigns on the site appear AI generated.
Now. I of course don’t expect there to be NO scammers on the list. And I can imagine Israel would do it’s best to mark legit campaigns as scammers through banking systems.
But what do you have to say on this? You run the list, am I correct?

UK prime minister granted US the permission to use their air bases for: ”Limited defensive opetations”.
Immediately B-52 and B-2 bombers landed there.
… sure, trust me bro, these devices purpose-built for carpet-bombing, will kill Iranian civilians entirely defensively!
A transcontinental heavy bomber aircraft literally has no defensive uses. Are the British really this stupid? Is everybody stupid? Or is Starmer just as much post-truth as Trump? 🤔

The #gamers that don’t see ”NAZI” in clear capital letters from the #Trump government & #ICE using #Halo to compare immigrants to a parasitic alien species that’s so dangerous the goddamn game’s lore revolves around it, are all in the nazi bar.
Coincidentally, these same gamers tend to schill for Space Marines from Warhammer 40000, which are basically catholic space nazis.
This image is interpretable as a call for a ”final solution”. A #dogwhistle of epic proportions.

Yes. It’s actually the authoritarians who try to convince us of the opposite.
Because they are:

2) When not so stupid, fearful zero-sum-games types whose first instinct is to lie

There's an irony there only Americans can appreciate.
They literally conflate their two political parties with the whole truth of politics.
They result in a mishmash where they can say anything about anything and appear sharp and witty, yet has no application beyond their particular economic power structure.
I'm glad Europe isn't yet as fucked up talking about politics as they are. But hey, Elon is trying to get us there too.

You forget the religious impulse. Many people enjoy being subservient to a god. The tech oligarchs are building one for them.

It looks to me like they cracked the code:

Research done on religious cults actually point out that the organisations with the most ridiculous rules survive the longest.
The more difficult for a member it is to demonstrate their loyalty, the more the ones who remain will believe they will not desert.
Stay tuned for more. More difficult lies to keep repeating. Because the traitors must be found! 😓

Israel has actually been the attacking party in most conflicts with it’s neighbours in the modern age.
It occupied Beirut and South Lebanon for 15 years. It has occupied parts of Syria and Egypt.
Israel is no victim here. But of course it is a sovereign state that can defend itself. And we know Iran also there.
But. It is Israel’s #farright & #Netanyahu that don’t want peace. They want to keep expanding settlements ”From the river to the sea.”

Contemporary Russian nationalism is an ideology based almost entirely on blaming others for their own problems.
Trumpism comes in a close second.

I see.
Now that I know something of your assumptions, I can gather that you classify all AI usage as falling under one category, and that all usage of AI would therefore generate the same response.
I, for one, am in my own political forums pushing for more investment into AI training from public materials by state actors inside EU.
A reliance on US commercial actors, who are stealing data, is a security risk and a trap.

Could we perhaps start with assumptions and statements about the subject matter?
1. How are we assuming the reader’s attitudes towards AI?
2. How are we assuming EU’s attitudes towards AI?
3. What is the statement about EU and AI usage?
I am factually interested in what you wanted to say. There’s just nothing for me to hang on to in your comment.

Generic pop music is also dumb. Perfect to be replaced by statistical methods brought to us by #AI.
Probably by 2030 most of Top 100 hits will be at least part written by LLM’s. And people won’t care.
Top 100 music is functional. People use it for affect as a tool. They want a certain mind-state which they can affect on themselves. Simple as that.

As always as it is with tools, these computer systems are only as good or evil as the ones who wield them.
And the ones who wield them instead are controlled by the incentives that make them successfull.
We have quite fucked up incentives for the AI companies. I think it’s that the US government so afraid of not ”winning the race with China”, anything goes right now.
Cold wars aren’t good for truth nor morality. Lots of fucked up shit happens in wars.

People operate on feelings. The unfortunate thing is, our feelings emulate a lot of sensemaking. Hence we think we are making sense, but it’s actually that we just remember past occasions of reasoning linked to that particular bad feeling related to an event or symbol.
So it probably would be near damn impossible for people who haven’t a real understanding of how LLM’s work to be able to be of two minds of it. They are simply feeling it.

In other words: Getting paid a reasonable amount from the model providers would incentivise people to be part of the training data.
Getting also paid from using the models creatively incentivises their use, and this is where copyright reform is most needed.
Instead of remaining a grey area forever, as the industry would sure be happy about, we need legal category for the remix as legit piece of art, not bastardisation.

As to my motivation, looking forward to people making MORE contributions to AI training instead of hiding their work away to protect it from being stolen.
I am not looking for copyright violations, but a new paradigm, where generative models feed back into the creative economy.
For this rewriting of the copyright laws will be necessary. I wrote lengthily about this for the Finnish Pirate party more than a year ago:

#mathematics people:
I feel there has to be a way of training neural networks to recognise the influence of their training data on the output.
This would probably include training a complementary indexing network + database that would then ”reverse-training” resolve and offer at some predetermined accuracy the #copyright-viable sources for each generated #aiart
I need some help though. A proof would show the companies know it can be done, but they just don’t want to.
