The AI hoax is the new COVID hoax. The only silver lining is that you can easily distinguish who you can trust and who you can’t based on how they react to it.

@gabriel
the love of AI seems to correlate with spiritual weakness

@hazlin my two main barriers to being enamored with AI tools are
1) I'm straight up priced out of the subscription costs
2) I think the idea of giving an LLM shell access is insane, and I'm shocked that it's caught on at all.
But specifically on the spiritual side, I'm convinced a lot of people are desperate for connection/guidance and are more than willing to settle for what is available.

@hazlin @gabriel there's a whole series of interlocking modern life facets that erase the popular illusion of the world as sane or physically healthy. these facets are both a cause and effect of sickness. some are downstream of sickness and some make everything sicker by feeding result back into the source like a damaging feedback loop. the question is, is this closer to an honest reckoning of reality than we want to admit, or is it a corruption. lately I am heavily leaning toward the material world as inherently corrupt and it will always trend toward its own destruction, and this is what you're observing, we're just further along the entropy curve, which has radically steepened in the last 50 years.
