As this hijacking has reached completion, we can now tangibly verify this, for example in the social domain of university live, as I guess most of us have attended uni; below are four points Moore has observed, with regards to social relations in the modern workspace, just substitute work with college, and see how applicable it is to our contemporary social dynamics in tertiary education. <br/><br/>1.Technical requirements of their work: they must not develop into deep relationships.<br/><br/>2.They must be universal, meaning they must be fulfillable by any person, even someone new to the job or with other relationships outside of the work environment.<br/><br/>3.Relationships must be rational, as the entire technical work complex follows rational rules.<br/><br/>4.

All kinds of other objects may be substituted here for the washing machine as signifying element“1. <br/>Symbols in these terms may be viewed as intelligible mater, a concept coined by Plotinus, being a pendant to the intelligible forms, intelligible mater is everything at the same time, in contrast to mater in the sensible world, where one form can substitute another, thus losing its self identity, something not possible for intelligible mater. Imagine it like a variable in math, for example x ranging over the domain of R, as a placeholder symbol our variable is encapsulated by the whole set of R, without ever losing its self identity, x is still x even though the concept (form) of a specific number may be attached to it. By analogy we can view this abstract system of production as a form-giving apparatus connected via signs who function as shape-shifting signifiers where the symbols of production never lose their self-identity, a functional one that is, e.g the washing machine still is a washing machine in its operations, but can be infused with various, potentially indefinite, meanings, hence show casing a great degree of potentia for semiotic manipulation. <br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/>1)The Consumer Society (Published in association with Theory, Culture &amp; Society)<br/>Jean Baudrillard 2025-01-20T15:39:39Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqs92ac7jarukv5qe26au0vvqxx3cx0l7npy8wspqe74pldlqzmswjqzyq7megnq6e9u67cmdfdta6w8ty48m8gfyhme6xyhreemltedyz9qjcznph9 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsw5p4nnq28fzzaq9ncjuctaaw7qyafmd5h7g8ezd4282ztt3apkuc0lk4pt'>nevent1q…k4pt</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Hui’s works where exactly that for me, a bridge to gap the schism between philosophy and technology, definitely would recommend reading them. 2025-01-20T12:34:52Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsfl6fmvtw5z753lumneghyr2k92pyc3tjm4262hhmzas3nnyhk0ygzyq7megnq6e9u67cmdfdta6w8ty48m8gfyhme6xyhreemltedyz9qjdta4zl In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsv0ps0m8fcxy9gxjxjag2lyjtpgcq646p3zvshkc5elh5990mks8cv06eex'>nevent1q…6eex</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Share this sentiment; especially the case when one stems from a philosophical background, where for a long time technology either was seen as something uninteresting or outright negative. <br/><br/>PS.

Let me give you a small example of this functioning. <br/><br/>Now Baudrillard in “The consumer Society” describes how tangibly negative events like an increase in alcohol/drug/porn &amp;c consumption are turned into positive ones by putting them in an excel sheet documenting an increase in commodity purchases, so that in the end they are brought into the circulatory economic system and contribute e.g to the GDP. <br/><br/>This circularity economy is at the same time a system of homeostasis like all cybernetics systems and a system of hedonistic excess. You may ask, balance and excess how does that go together? Well they build in certain mechanisms to force homeostasis just think about boom-bust cycles yeah. <br/><br/>Big question is how to bring down such systems without being turned into a positive contributing factor oneself, a collapse is, according to Hui only guaranteed when the borders of negentropy (order) are crossed, so that the recursive movement comes to an halt. The concretization of this vague notion of a negentropic breakdown, is a question that needs urgent answering, if we want to preserve a future for humanity. 2025-01-04T21:16:26Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqs99javfjn80m09a72lc2v5tz5p6tylkmuz9w2guq58tdeam2c5eqgzyq7megnq6e9u67cmdfdta6w8ty48m8gfyhme6xyhreemltedyz9qjm74fj4 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsyavx4007d88mn0284t3x77vgvuhf5zxp5t44aqyrunywwuzv4l8gsqpttw'>nevent1q…pttw</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Quick Anecdote, when once discussing the dangers of AI distorting our perception of reality and what’s real and fake, in a small group, where one ex CFO of a large company was present, said CFO simply couldn’t get what the point of my talk was, constantly trying to paddle back to the alleged future economic benefits of artificial intelligence.

PS. Of course we as Muslims don’t believe that we produce knowledge ex nihilio but that’s an entirely different topic. 2024-04-11T07:45:33Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsvxhav4p4zaktg6y6ftdlc9j3ywhj2tcf9ak8kp9jurhm56lp8l9gzyq7megnq6e9u67cmdfdta6w8ty48m8gfyhme6xyhreemltedyz9qj4keker In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsz7m8ffxvcdjtf6zr3ucqe865sxfq7vafxtq0fhecuceufcxtmnrqthtma4'>nevent1q…tma4</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Points to a circular mode of “knowledge” for cybernetic systems such as LLM’s , usually in epistemology at least up until modernity knowledge was the identification of knowing subject with the known object, with cybernetic systems like AI there is no identification bc how can something that not posses a Self identify with anything thus knowledge in such systems is being replaced by networks each part of the network adapts automatically to the other parts in the network through a retroactive force (rückkoppelnde Kraft).

Good point you made is how the vassal states of the empire need to be weakened by CWA. Playing by their rules is a fruitless endeavor and almost nothing good came out of participating in their institutions and programs. Recently I was thinking about how Muslims have established a strong foothold in the European underworld and if it would be possible to further undermine their societies by harnessing the power that lies in the twilight zone of organized crime.
