I always make Loab the Divine Feminine in my multi-verse. She should be in more people's pantheons, imo. She's dope and this could be her moment.

There is no such thing as AI. What masquerades as it is, in fact, a self-compounding machinic instantiation of the logics of Capital. Long read for the weekend: creativeapplications.net/theory/predict…

the LLMs know about Loab now. sorry guys

Was awarded a grant today for a short film I’m directing. It’s about two people with an erotic fixation on the invisible algorithms inside cameras. Artist Liza Shkirando is one of my collaborators on this wild project. That’s all I’m going to say at this time, go back to sleep.

Honored to share co-authorship with caroline sinders and main author Eryk Salvaggio in the newest issue of Critical AI!! “Cultural Red Teaming: ARRG! and Creative Misuse of AI Systems” -- featuring Loab and much more -- read it! read.dukeupress.edu/critical-ai/ar…

Here's a collection of kind responses to my book. Finishing it, very nearly finished me. Reaching readers, of course, is even more challenging. So heartfelt thanks: 🙏 Happy Hour at Hippel's neil turkewitz steph maj swanson Qfe CreativeApplications.Net Dan O'Hara Paul Prudence Eugenio Tisselli

Help fund Vera’s surgery - she is a dear friend, collaborator, and wonderful person!

🧵1/1 The notion that a world model emerges within LLMs appears to have been unequivocally destroyed in this paper. It also seems to align very much with Kenneth Stanley’s Fractured Entangled Representation Hypothesis, and his argument that “greatness cannot be planned”.

Loab me perturba

The Shrouds by David Cronenberg

Not only is this work jaw droppingly beautiful, it demonstrates how our humanity can shine through when using machines to create —as opposed to machinic capital shining through when abusing the stolen labour of other humans.

Every day, do one thing that makes your friend(s) and family(s) question whether they know "the real you."
