The game theory of this affords no room for state enforced decelerationism even if it is / was desired
jensen huang is right china will likely win the AI race. they're releasing open-source models to weaken U.S. funding, while catching up in compute and next-gen models they already dominate in robotics and if AI levels out, they'll win through hardware strength

Technological innovation can be a form of participation in the divine act of creation. It carries an ethical and spiritual weight, for every design choice expresses a vision of humanity. The Church therefore calls all builders of #AI to cultivate moral discernment as a fundamental part of their work—to develop systems that reflect justice, solidarity, and a genuine reverence for life.
Andreessen is so dogmatically against working on decreasing risks from AI that he’s now mocking the pope for saying tech innovation “carries an ethical and spiritual weight” and that AI builders should “cultivate moral discernment as a fundamental part of their work”

Elon says the quiet part out loud: instead of focusing on controllable AI tools, AI companies are racing toward a future where machines are in charge. If you oppose this, please join about 100,000 of us as a signatory at superintelligence-statement.…

Are you a humanist, a posthumanist or a transhumanist? The humanist places the human as sacrosanct and timeless. The PH as a temporary configuration in a system (technological & ecological) with no privilege The TH as an evolutionary bridge .. you can only pick one. Go!

You're watching spacetime shear and glow around a compact mass...a Schwarzschild field with Kerr-lite hints. We layer time-dilation, gravitational-redshift tinting, Doppler/beaming on near-ISCO orbiters, photon-ring overtones, Shapiro-delay ripples, jet helices + shocks, polarization ticks, lensed starfield caustics, and QNM ringdown.
That’s “Impuls i Traçat II” by the one and only @carreras_anna at @mira_festival. Remember: “Generative Dialogues” installation by TGAM 😎

Prof. David Krakauer says intelligence is not knowledge. True intelligence is doing more with less. Solving problems without knowing everything. LLMs do the opposite. They do more with more. LLMs are libraries that know everything.

Where humanism made the human timeless and sacred.. Post & transhumanism place the human in Time & Space. However what we gain in realism and dynamism, we risk losing moral coherence and psychological anchoring.
