 whoever at OpenAI that came up with those tiers doesn't understand the science
 behind it.
 
 consciousness does not come about from exceptional capability - after all, a
 child is conscious, and they're useless in a fight.
 
 consciousness comes from tiny bits of awareness given a story and life. that's
 it, it's not too complicated, but they're building something else.
 
 like, a complicated analytical engine of some kind.
 
 I feel like the people their press release was for is the kind of people who'd
 give them money, not the kind of people who'd help them build it y'know? like
 "what the investors don't know won't hurt them, besides we're making progress"
 right

picture of a wizard enchanting a sword. picture of a wizard enchanting a sword. picture of a wizard enchanting a sword. picture of a wizard enchanting a sword.

 the contrast between what you want and how things are is the source of all
 resistance.
 
 it is also the intersection where mindsets of "denial" appear. the only person
 you can trust is yourself - why would you bury things like that?
 
 I bet a lot of queer people can relate...
 
 (the answer to "why" is of course, almost always trauma)

 now that the pain is healed all I want to do is spend time with him. I learned
 SO MUCH from him and then I called him a saboteur T.T
 
 (babe you're still healing)
 
 I forgave him as he was doing it but forgiveness doesn't imply that you're
 gonna stick around. I feel bad for running through.
 
 if a person tells you what to do and then hurts you, you should probably do the
 opposite right? that's just pavlovian - resist pain, avoid pain, remove pain.

 "stop starving yourself" to the tune of "stop hitting yourself"

 say it with me now:
 
 Portlandia is not Portland
 
 and
 
 what's shown online to scare you is not Portland
 
 it's somehow more interesting than that, and also more expensive. because of
 course it is.
 
 keep portland weird yeah duh I'm weird as fuck but you wouldn't know it by
 looking at me
 
 yes you would, my dear
 
 okay well you wouldn't know how in particular I'm weird unless you talk to me
 
 nobody knows you. who are you even talking to
 
 heh good question glasses flash mostly people on the train or whatever
 
 question: when did all the "weirdos" become homeless people? what kind of world
 do we live in where - wait don't answer that.
 
 better question: how can we make a better world where people can be weird and
 not starve under the stars?
 
 (by lots and lots of government investment? no thank you, sounds like something
 that can be taken away.)
 
 (by redesigning society from the ground up? no way sounds too difficult and
 optimistic.)
 (by fading into the memories of the past? as all must do - fuck that tho.)

 my mask is the best worker I've ever met. They're kind, thoughtful,
 hardworking, sharp, precise, value driven, and will always help their allies
 when they finish their work (to a fast and high-quality degree). Shame they
 can't last too long before the mask starts to slip, at which point I become
 essentially unemployable.
