I think the way you phrased it misses the point. It simply does not matter whether AI "art" is good or bad, in a technical sense.

Until AI is an actual person, and can make art reflecting its subjective experience (which would no doubt be very interesting) ; AI "art" is just nothing.

There is no meaning, no story behind it, no other mind to connect with. It was made by a philosophical zombie, a thing that possesses enough appearance of consciousness to seem aware, but no actual subjectivity.

AI "art" could be technically irreproachable, ie "good" and it would still be equivalent to nothing. Even a blank canvas made by a human means worlds more than our current AI could ever make.

And I personally don't believe AI will ever be a person. But on that, sensible minds may differ.

What is the reason to turn off Vsync and VRR ?

AI on Windows

Oh boy, you really can't read the room, can you ? 😂

I think GrapheneOS said they would not implement this ? I hope that's correct.

Episodic memory 2/10 : I keep forgetting things that happen to me ; I barely remember anything further than 5 years ago.

Semantic memory 10/10 : if I ever heard a factoid about screwheads in my teens, I still remember it verbatim 😂

Okay then eat an entire screwdriver.

Society has a choice. I worry that people's general meekness might make them bend the knee once again, though.

"Making your own cyanide is good now"

The fact I don't know how to make cyanide at home isn't what's keeping me from consuming it. I don't consume cyanide because it is POISON ; so is AI.

Honestly, I need to work on my opinion of other people much, much more. I do already really like myself, likely a little too much...

I tend to be a bit of an egocentric misanthrope when I don't watch myself ; but at least, I know that I am, and I know that it's a flaw, so I can do something about it.

I think we should all hope for people we dislike to better themselves ; even when those people include ourselves.

Move to France ! SRS is litterally free here !

No one deserves anything in such an absolute sense. But if I can hazard a word of advice : as long as you consider them as demons, they will never be tamed.

I recommend the game "Celeste" for a good story and metaphor about just this.

If you did your best then it's a 10/10 ! No one should be expected to do better than their best !

Personally to motivate myself, I focus on raising the first derivative of my performance (in a mathematical sense).

By which I mean : If I'm improving, I want to improve faster, or at least keep improving as fast. If I'm worsening, I want to slow down the worsening until I can turn it around.

Don't be hard on yourself for failing (or not quite succeeding) today. Life is a journey where all you can really know and choose is how to take the next few steps.

It is interesting, how most people stand on either side of the spectrum from "I hate myself" to "I love myself", with very few in the centre.

I am with you on this one ; my default mode of thinking assumes that I am the best at everything, which is obviously not litterally true. I struggle to understand those on the other side ; whose default is to assume they are the worst.

Both modes are somewhat unhealthy, but I would much rather be on this end (although, isn't this just what someone like us would say ? That they would rather be themselves than anyone else ?).

Saving this as inspiration for when I eventually forge my own !

It's not going to be this nice, but it helps to have aspirational goals.

That isn't entirely true. If humanity goes extinct, trans people will too. Unless you consider non-human animals people ; which I personally do in a qualitative sense, but I wouldn't use the word people to describe them.

For a number of years now, work has been proceeding in order to bring perfection to the crudely conceived idea of a transmission that would not only supply inverse reactive current for use in unilateral phase detractors, but would also be capable of automatically synchronizing cardinal grammeters. Such an instrument is the turbo encabulator.

Now basically the only new principle involved is that instead of power being generated by the relative motion of conductors and fluxes, it is produced by the modial interaction of magneto-reluctance and capacitive diractance.

The original machine had a base plate of pre-famulated amulite surmounted by a malleable logarithmic casing in such a way that the two spurving bearings were in a direct line with the panametric fan. The latter consisted simply of six hydrocoptic marzlevanes, so fitted to the ambifacient lunar waneshaft that side fumbling was effectively prevented.

The main winding was of the normal lotus-o-delta type placed in panendermic semi-boloid slots of the stator, every seventh conductor being connected by a non-reversible tremie pipe to the differential girdle spring on the “up” end of the grammeters.

The turbo-encabulator has now reached a high level of development, and it’s being successfully used in the operation of novertrunnions. Moreover, whenever a forescent skor motion is required, it may also be employed in conjunction with a drawn reciprocation dingle arm, to reduce sinusoidal repleneration.

Go die in a ditch with all the other AI cultists like you.
