@hipsterelectron @clayote @shoofle @mtrc "this john guy seems racist" was the other main conclusion I came away with, though for my own happiness I decided to assume the unfortunate framing was a clumsy attempt to at a setup for the second part to wherein he is circumstantially illiterate and a structured set of rules processed without requiring his understanding does not empower him to understand the text, but the thought experiment doesn't improve anything and makes him seem sinophobic

@aeva @clayote @shoofle @mtrc i consider the chinese room experiment to be quite literally racist in that it assumes a human being does not learn chinese in the act of translating it by rote. i think the language was chosen precisely to obscure this basic fact. it makes the circular assumption that a human can somehow ever be made to act like a turing machine. possibly the most ridiculous and unserious thing which is taught in "AI" courses.

@hipsterelectron @clayote @shoofle @mtrc fuck i'm having art thoughts now. what if I made a patch in mollytime where you have to "feed" it periodically, and if you do it plays beautiful music, and if you don't the music wilts into something horrific as it self destructs. can I make a simple synthesizer patch that is capable of suffering for our entertainment? it would be art AND an artist!

@maxoakland they were working within very tight constraints, I think it's amazing how much people have been able to wring out of the 64. And, I suspect one could come up with alternatives...I mean flipping bytes isn't computationally intensive, so you could do it yourself on the CPU, but I guess it'd need copies since the VIC is reading sprite memory directly, so you can't update it in place, at least not without glitches (I'm guessing, I have no idea what I'm talking about).

@hipsterelectron @clayote @shoofle @mtrc I find beauty in the idea that life can meaningfully exist in the liminality of information and a well chosen set of processing instructions (even if John Searle is functioning as its unwitting animating force) and be theoretically bound in its sophistication complexity only by the bounds of available time and memory. I decided to stop there, as the idea is too precious to let the used car salesmen running the tech industry defile it.

@swelljoe oof no flipping is such a bad design decision. SMS had that flaw despite a lot of other really cool features

Divieto di dissenso. Lo scudo europeo per la democrazia
@anarchia
La Commissione Europea ha presentato mercoledì 16 novembre lo scudo europeo per la democrazia e la strategia dell’Unione Europea per la società civile. Si tratta di una serie di misure concrete volte a rafforzare, proteggere e https://www.rivoluzioneanarchica.it/divieto-di-dissenso-lo-scudo-europeo-per-la-democrazia/

@hipsterelectron @clayote @shoofle @mtrc my attempt to learn about expert systems tonight failed. the wikipedia article did not hold my attention and i ended up on the article about the Chinese Room thought experiment, which mostly has only convinced me that John Searle had never read XKCD 505
