gods' skin: silver, gold;
bejeweled with lapis, turquoise,
and, comet-born glass

dogs to cats: 'let me
love you.' cats to dogs: 'come close,
and, i'll scratch, and, bite

my magician's top
hat: you will need a mirror
to see the rabbit

dark night of the soul:
an illusion made from the
the dark self's shadows

love's born in shadows,
and, light, only our blindness
allows us to see

the shy humbled self
is the real sorcerer, not
your words, or, thoughts

purrrr ...

I wonder if this is a quick judgement made too rapidly. SO does have a learning curve and doesn't have a warm welcome mat for newcomers.

look at the AI wars is to view it as our oligarchs trying to figure out ways to monetize it -vs- the geeks who like playing with it for the technology itself. (And the general population, some scared, some not.)

Yes, monetize ! imho: geeks intelligent people who see the potential in AI demonstrated now in diverse domains, amd experience it now using it ... i use ReSharper's AI code generation assistant: it is awesome even in beta !

What book most shaped your conception of the future? Virginia Postrel’s “The Future and Its Enemies.” She almost perfectly laid out what battles about the future of technological progress and technology, in general, would look like. She identified two camps of thinking about the future, “dynamists” and “stasists.” The stasis mindset defends the status quo, and values the present, or a particular potential future, and is willing to utilize certain legal or social instruments to try to hold the status quo in place. Whereas the dynamists are willing to embrace an uncertain, messy future where there are a lot of unknowns. This is now playing out in the AI wars, in a huge way. At the Brookings event I was just debating people who were very concerned about what the future might hold, but unable to show conclusively how their fears might happen. They were saying, based on a hypothetical, worst-case scenario, we should freeze progress in certain ways, or at least regulate it very aggressively. I'm more of the mind that we should take every day as it comes and allow trial and error to work its magic. This book laid all this out, at a time when the internet was just being born

sure: i'm having fresh made soy milk with my own secret recipe of various Thai/Indian spices baked with melted coconut palm sugar with heaps of butter. i'd send you some, but, the unprocessed hard cakes of the sugar reeking of spices might look suspicious. :omg:

can you make choices
you haven't seen looking in
a rear-view mirror ?

today's fresh catch of
still wriggling truth will keep
me from half starving

i half-way blindfold
my gods so they will half see
love's blind half clearly

wise men wag their heads
arguing over what makes
fairy tales' magic

when i'm a well-paid
cat, working at home, my mice
will write purrfect code
