Therefore only real people = real authorship = real accountability.
I'm now trying to boycott A.I. while I can still notice it.
Convenience is the lazy compliance trap.
At present only experts on a topic can raise the tough questions for A.I., comprehend the results, and catch the errors, problems, and lies.
You don't become an expert by accident. It takes lots of work and exercising the critical thinking muscle between the ears.
Future generations won't have the mental exercise - therefor be utterly dependent on A.I.
Sloth may become our deadliest sin...
Therefore only real people = real accountability = real consequences.
Allegedly.
No one's been held responsible for the failures of 9/11, the 2008 crash, rigged elections, COVID, Ukraine war crimes, Palestine, etc. etc. etc.
Is that a term? Or did I just make it up? I've been making a bunch of new terms on Projex.Wiki (ie. conspira-maxing) (maybe some might even become useful), as well as documenting all the interesting concept I come across.
Anyway, I want to try to document cyber psyops in the inevitable cyberwars so we can stay on top of it and prep rather than be more victims of the Nigerian Prince.
Perhaps we need to develop methodologies to be able to identify, classify, express, broadcast, and resist the inevitable cyber psyops.
I heard that somewhere. Some discovered enzyme or something. I forget. Thought I'd ask.
I know there are other remedies too. I forget too. Never followed up on them.
Maybe this is worth a separate post.
A couple more important ones came across my radar I thought folks might like to dive into. Not really new, but not discussed much.
If it doesn't already exist, perhaps it should. Over 20 years ago we had WASTE, a trusted private P2P.
Could A.I.s have a kind of trust-limited shared HiveMind?
Why not?
Plug-and-play local A.I. options should exist. If not, why?
If they do, they could start basic and have the ability to get advanced or even up to expert level. If not, why?
I suspect local A.I. may be almost as critical as the freedom to communicate, freedom of expression, freedom of mobility, etc.
I fear that by the time my current projects get anywhere near completion it may be too late to succeed, invest to survive, and/or learn enough to catch up to the A.I. divide.
The studio is coming along. I wish I didn't have to drywall to pay the bills just to barely stay afloat.
Your thoughts are appreciated.
I think the proper term is "influence operations", no Wikipedia page for that, but Grokipedia has one: https://grokipedia.com/page/State-sponsored_online_influence_operations
I think I heard of "cyber psyops" on something like the Cognitive Dissidents (most recently: Cognitive Dissidents: Cyber False Flag Upon Us & Pied Pipers Piping, But Will You Eat the Bugs (1:18:40)).
Just because "officials" or "experts" haven't codified the term doesn't mean we can't embrace the combination of the two important concepts, cyber + psychological operation, or "tech-lies" for short, that are critically dangerous in combination. We know the "digital deceptions" are here, happening, and more coming in strong.
I like it because "cyber psyops" kind of rhymes - and it doesn't have to be state-sponsored when clearly we're dominated by the corporatocracy, both governments plus corporations, in league with NGOs, secret organizations, think tanks, etc.
Around 10 years ago, before SaidIt (RIP 2017-2025), I was enthusiastic about trying out a virtual assistant Mycroft A.I. (named after a sci-fi computer that was named after Sherlock's brother), when it was still open-source, long before the current A.I. hype-tastrophe.
Anyone follow it, know of interesting developments, or even try it?
Or has it fallen to the wayside with bigger better competition?
The most simple local AI kit is just ollama.
A recent change in ollama tells something about the direction AI is going in. Specifically progressing to the next chapter in bubble pop. Ollama lets you access both local models and cloud models. Some cloud models were free. Mainly gemma4. So you could use the full model even if you don't have the full vram for it. Now there are zero free cloud models. AI companies are now realizing they need maximum revenue to justify existing.
This is good news. This is what a bubble pop looks like. The market corrects and demands a useful metric. Then companies either meet that metric or pop.
Good news - except now it's for those who can afford it.
Alan Turing would not have wanted this.
How do you know?
Did the AlanTuring.io tell you so?
Maybe Ray Kurzweil can resurrect him to ask.
