it’s tyranny when your schema.org/WebSite doesn’t declare itself a schema.org/WebSite (nor any of the other semantic web stuff we were promised) and it doesn’t work without javascript. “a.i.” has become a distraction generator from the death by a thousand cuts that started with jeff bezos’ API Mandate.

“crypto” and “a.i.” was just dads throwing pearls (“software toys”, softpower sex toys) to swine (the kids alright)

what i’m trying to understand is the bridge between the quite damning works like Artificial Intelligence: A Modern Myth by John Kelly, R. Scha elsewhere, G. Ryle at advent of the Cognitive Revolution, deriving many of the same points as L. Wittgenstein, and then there’s PMS Hacker, a daunting read, indeed, that bridge between these counter-“a.i.” authors, and the easy think substance that seems to re-emerge every other decade? how is it that there are so many resolutely powerful indictments, and they are all being lost to what seems like a digital dark age? is it that the kool-aid is too good, that the sauce is too powerful, that the propaganda is too well funded? or is this all merely par for the course in the development of a planet that becomes conscious of all its “hyperobjects”?
