  There’s a difference between drawing a boundary and insulting others.

  This is why I try to be mindful of using those words. They’re really stuck in there but I understand that it would be hypocritical of me to call for understanding towards mental health and cognitive issues and then fault people for not having the cognitive capacity I think they “should” have.

  I definitely fail frequently because I get angry when people spout total nonsense, even hateful stuff. I try not to let that get the better of me though.

  The danger isn’t just bad art, and only thinking of genAI is dangerous. It’s about how it’s being woven into the systems that manage us. It can already analyze years of a person’s digital activity to make automated judgments on employment or detect “wrongthink” in political contexts. We’re essentially building an invisible bureaucracy that can categorize and penalize people at a scale no human could ever audit. And do so at speed an efficiency that not even a whole department of humans could ever compete with. That’s the atom bomb.

  Algorithmic internet is already a horrible problem and AI can make it worse.
