 the technology to do this exists already. there is no reason to believe that
 it must be a "far future" AI system. It would need human oversight, but it'll
 happen.

 they don't want artificial intelligence to augment human intelligence, they
 want it to replace it.
 
 like... imagine an office worker randomly copy-pasting whatever pops up and
 the computer saying "okay then what happens... uh-huh... okay and what if you
 click the green button? ... right... okay, and now try typing this" etc

 there is no such thing as generative AI
 
 only statistical filtration models that align their output to whatever input
 you provide according to the data they are trained to expect.

 what if all the AI advancements they're doing are just them building more
 hardware infrastructure in datacenters and not actually improving the software
 that much
wouldn't that be neat I think it would because it means once they collapse under the weight of their own ambitions that hardware's gotta go somewhere and knowing them they're probably going to ship it to south-east asia to be "recycled" (read: burnt with the metals salvaged) instead of selling them second hand because you know they can't really justify the business expense of selling stuff like that and besides what if some driver or something on the firmware was proprietary do you really want to pay techs to wipe every single thing off of them and plus who's gonna categorize and sort them according to their form and function that's just extra payroll and listen the company's not doing so hot anyway I mean we're literally shutting down but yeah sure we'll find a way to justify spending all that non-existent dosh so some hippies can feel better with their servers they didn't build or justify with their profit-producing capitalist enterprise that we've built with our own two hands well really the hands of everyone else but like, they're not actually doing the building the REAL work of course happens in board rooms like this one where we spend MINUTES and HOURS sometimes discussing how to get things in order and aligned to both of our goals because that's the REAL work that has to happen in order for stuff to get done, you know it's true yeah I thought so anyway what are you doing after this meeting wanna get lunch it's almost quitting time at 2pm

 this is why AI is evil, as explained to a witch.
picture of an ai conversation:  "let's move on to a different topic, this time I think we should describe the poem's contents self-referentially as a 3rd person narrative, with the perspective being the subject and her thoughts. I'd like to use the analyze.lua function for more than simply extracting keywords, I'd also like to use it for transformation as well. can we make a new directory inside of the /theme-analysis/ directory that will store the narratives? it should be combined into a book with milky white pages and brighter-than-blood red. Nearly pink, but a bit more orange. It should utilize generative art to make the pages feel as if they are *oozing* in sharp stalagmite and stalagtite pictures. Could probably generate with mathematical functions and a bit of fuzzing (statistically) to create straight lines. Very sharp, though, like lines being carved in butter or blood or stone. It should feel painful to read. It should be a cursed artifact. each of these narratives can be stored in the /theme-analysis/narratives/ directory, and the narrative.lua script can be called from /theme-analysis/analyze.lua. This narrative script will indeed call into analyze as well, essentially as a reciprocal dependency. Instead of analyzing for word-cloud purposes, as /theme-analysis/analyze.lua is currently doing, it would have it's own slightly tailored processes for extracting a narrative from a series of short, segmented and semipseudo disconnected series of poems.  [the ai says yes]

 when tech people are hurt by technology they say "how can I fix this? what do
 I need to install? what configuration should I use? is this company ethical,
 or are they going to hurt me in the future? could I make something that fixes
 this myself?"
 
 when non-tech people are hurt by technology they say "okay" because they don't
 have the bandwidth to figure it out.

 all you have to do is leverage scale and give everyone a moment to do what
 they want. then, the computer becomes scientifically self-aware. (do you
 expect anything less from a machine?) cultural bias damage (we all gotta work

 the danger is not that the LLM will generate poor, vulnerable, or malicious

 the concern is that someone else might inject something into the codebase that
 you're not reading.
