my research indicates the world is going through a complete transformation. i could be wrong.

but if i am not wrong, then there is something significant happening right now. if so, why aren’t more people “waking up” to see what is occurring right before them?

edit:

i will definitely not be doxxing myself by sharing any of my research projects, custom tools or other resources that could identify me.

what i will say is there are enough of you here who understand what i am saying to speak plainly…

from my position in space and time, we coexist in an era of great opportunity. right before we begin mining and colonizing space, truly epic times. only a few will notice which way the winds are blowing. if you have the guts and savvy to figure it out by doing your homework, i say take full advantage of your observations. whatever your ambitions are. it’s okay to be a little selfish and make real change happen.

    Yeah yeah, the singularity…

    …which is why modern mass produced houses (with paper thin flammable walls) are so much sturdier than older well built houses?

    It’s why modern cars with subscription models for seat warmers and extra acceleration are preferable to older cars that just had seat warmers and top acceleration already built in…

    …and why a radio play written by AI is 1000 times better than a radio play written by real people, right?

    Because the singularity is making everything better?

    Have you considered that all that media you’ve been consuming is premised on selling you on ideas and purchases? On technologies that aren’t necessarily better, but keep their sponsors happy?

    Don’t get me wrong. AI when correctly trained can be useful. But I don’t think it’s the cure all people make it out to be, and I don’t think we’re anywhere near a singularity.

    Here’s a video debunking a lot of the AI stuff the media claims:

    See… That’s a person who actually knows how to research. Where as just watching things isn’t really research. To properly research things you need media literacy and meta studies, and to understand the fundamentals of how things work… And to run practices and experiments on how things play out IRL.

    Ultimately human labour (both mental and physical) drives the world 99.9% of the time, and AI hasn’t alleviated that problem except in the most innane areas (real estate agent copy writing and advertising copy writing).

    Even programmers admit that when they use AI it’s not their best work, with many admitting it writes poor quality code.

    I myself hooked some models up to Blender to allow it to create 3D scenes from prompts and found it could barely place spheres and cubes to mimic sculpting.

    None of this technology is bright, or the be all and end all (extra training actually has logarithmically declining returns). So far, and for the immediate future it’s EMPTY HYPE, and human art, science, and WORK HOURS are still increadibly intense, and increadibly necessary.

    Don’t count your chickens before they hatch… You may well have just picked up a bunch of rocks because the media told you they’ll be chickens soon enough.
