AI: The New Aesthetics of Fascism
AI: The New Aesthetics of Fascism
It's embarrassing, destructive, and looks like shit: AI-generated art is the perfect aesthetic form for the far right.
You're viewing a single thread.
Jumpscare warning:
LW gets mentioned at about 80% into the article.
edit: it appears that there are people who do not know what “LW” means. I made a context-based joke that it was “Lemmy World”. What it really stands for is “Lurk More”
Read the whole thing. Couldn't find any mention of LW. Mind to be more specific of where it is?
paragraph starts:
AI is a cruel technology
That paragraph:
AI is a cruel technology. It replaces workers, devours millions of gallons of water, vomits CO2 into the atmosphere, propagandises exclusively for the worst ideologies, and fills the world with more ugliness and stupidity. Cruelty is the central tenet of right wing ideology. It is at the heart of everything they do. They are now quite willing to lose money or their lives in order to make the world a crueller place, and AI is a part of this – a mad rush to make a machine god that will liberate capital from labour for good. (This is no exaggeration: there is a lineage from OpenAI’s senior management back to the Lesswrong blog, originator of the concept of Roko’s Basilisk.) Moreso even than cryptocurrency, AI is entirely nihilistic, with zero redeeming qualities. It is a blight upon the world, and it will take decades to clear up the mountains of slop it has generated in the past two or three years.
I don't see them saying lemmy.world, or lemmy for that matter.
the other poster was snarking at the person who did not understand, as you also do not
look for the word in there that features
landw. there's only one (I checked)
I don't see lemmy.world there, or lemmy for that matter.
The words with l and w in ther that I do see are:
-
world
-
willing
-
will
-
Lesswrong
you are not tall enough for this ride
Okay. Now that you've identified four candidates that LW might refer to, which of these do you think it is?
If you selected the obviously correct answer, congratulations. You have learned to apply context clues to understand unfamiliar abbreviations.
If you chose anything else...furrfu. I guess I pity anyone who ever attempts to hold a conversation with you.

[email protected] stated LW was an abreviation of Lemmy World.
The are not any references to Lemmy or lemmy.world in that paragraph.
All instances of "world" in the paragraph:
worst ideologies, and fills the world with more ugliness and stupidity
willing to lose money or their lives in order to make the world a crueller place, and AI is a part of this
It is a blight upon the world, and it will take decades to clear up the mountains of slop
None of the refer to lemmy or lemmy.world
All instances of "willing" in the paragraph:
They are now quite willing to lose money or their lives
It does not refer to lemmy or lemmy.world
All instances of "will" in the paragraph:
mad rush to make a machine god that will liberate capital from labour for good
It is a blight upon the world, and it will take decades to clear up the mountains of slop
None of the refer to lemmy or lemmy.world
The only word left is LessWrong, which is a forum with absolutely nothing to do with Lemmy or lemmy.world as far as I can tell.
Please learn to parse a joke on your way to the egress.
