Artificial Intelligence - the last frontier of the electronics. An invention that will alter the course of evolution. For the last few billion years humans slowly evolved an organ that gave us superiority among the animal kingdom. The brain. A machine of logic, reason, curiosity and knowledge. It brought with it civilization. Before there was any civilization people would mindlessly do nothing unless afraid, hungry or horny. Every other animal today just chills most of the time. They don't have jobs. They don't have art. They don't have laws or social responsibilities. Animals are lazy. And humans are not particularly that different from other animals. Since the dawn of civilization we fought against social responsibilities. We fought against hard labor. We fought for our right to do nothing and chill all day long. We invented machine after machine. We replaced hard labor of almost every kind and all due to our superior brain. Until we reached a point where we took it upon ourselves to replace the brain too. ↩ Reply

If you ask a researcher in Artificial Intelligence how, for example, it recognizes images, his answer will be something about the neural network, or some similar algorithm. A neural network is often visualized as a net of sorts and because of it's complexity it's extraordinary hard to understand what it's doing. It's rather much simpler to explain and Evolutionary Algorithm to you. But even that will fail at telling the exact way a computer tackles any particular problem. Let's say that we can set up a simulation of a virtual environment. For example a little game. Where there are clear rules of how to loose and how to win. And clear controls, or settings to tweak, to win the level. For example: we can construct a randomly generated, road. And place upon it a car which will be designed by the computer. There will be a regular physics engine attached. And the car will break down over time from various bumps in the road. The rule is very simple: to get as far as possible down the road without the car breaking. ↩ Reply

So you activate the algorithm and it generates a completely random car. Perhaps it has only one wheel and it's on the roof or something. It sends it down the road and it doesn't even go anywhere so it looses immediately. Doesn't matter. It can try another randomly generated car. This time it drives and after some time it breaks. It does it again and again, say a dozen times or so. And then the computer can compare the results of all the designs and slightly alternate the winning design randomly also about a dozen times. Each generation of such randomly generated designs will give more and more refined car that will go farther and farther and be stronger and stronger. ↩ Reply

As a tool to generate cars it could be wonderful. And similar technologies are already in use in many places. But how much knowledge does this new car algorithm give the programmer? Well... in the case of the car it's probably not that substantial of a job to reverse engineer the design and understand how it works. But what if it's something more complex? ↩ Reply

With the sizes of today's software it is nearly an impossible job to reverse engineer a normal compiled program. Somebody clearly understands this program, since the developer had thought about it and written it in a language that another program can read and understand. But then it was translated into machine code. Ones and zeros. Which is almost unintelligible even for the person that had written the compiler to do that job. ↩ Reply

This same truth applies heavily with Artificial Intelligence. But this time, even the programmer doesn't understand how the damn thing works. Which poses two questions: Can we rely on something we can't understand? And does the fact that we remove the requirement to understand technology creates a precondition for devolution of the human brain that got us to this stage in the first place? ↩ Reply

Sheiny was drawing on a graphical tablet with a stylus when Ivan ( Chloe's boyfriend ) entered and looked at her weirdly. ↩ Reply

Ivan: What are you doing? ↩ Reply

Sheiny: I'm trying to draw a cover for my book. ↩ Reply

Ivan: By hand? ↩ Reply

Sheiny: Not by hand. Aided with a computer. ↩ Reply

Ivan: What are you? A dinosaur? We live in the age of AI. ↩ Reply

Sheiny put her stylus down and looked at Ivan with a serious look. This is exactly when Mr. Hambleton entered the room. He was holding in his hands four cups of coffee. ↩ Reply

Mr. Hambleton: These two are yours, Sheiny. ↩ Reply

He placed two cups on her desk. ↩ Reply

Mr. Hambleton: Do you want a coffee? ↩ Reply

Ivan: No thank you. Ham, Is she a dinosaur? ↩ Reply

Sheiny: I don't want to use no AI, thank you. ↩ Reply

Ivan: Yeah, but you prefer hard labor. ↩ Reply

Sheiny: Art requires sacrifices. ↩ Reply

Ivan: It required sacrifices 10 years ago. Now the computer can do it for you. ↩ Reply

Sheiny: Then the computer did it, and not me. ↩ Reply

Ivan: So what? Also... You can now generate a whole book without doing anything at all, really. ↩ Reply

Sheiny: Is there already AI that reads books for you as well? ↩ Reply

Ivan: There might be. ↩ Reply

Sheiny: Then humans are truly degrading. ↩ Reply

While Ivan was processing what she said, Sheiny took a sip of coffee and frowned at it. ↩ Reply

Sheiny: You forgot to put sugar. ↩ Reply

Mr. Hambleton sipped his too. ↩ Reply

Mr. Hambleton: Oh... ↩ Reply

And he ran out of the door. ↩ Reply

Ivan: What do you mean by degrading? ↩ Reply

Sheiny: You have an organ... maybe... inside of your skull that thinks. This organ... by the way it's called "The Brain" ... it enjoys things like art and music and books. You know that books are almost exclusively intellectual? Those are strings of words that must be thought over and decoded to extract a meaning, that must thought over and decoded to extract a deeper meaning. As so on and so forth. Imagine tomorrow buying books so a computer will enjoy it and you. ↩ Reply

Ivan: I don't like books. ↩ Reply

Sheiny: Yeah?... Well, I do! ↩ Reply

Ivan: Well, that's because you are a nerd. ↩ Reply

Sheiny: And you are not a nerd? ↩ Reply

Ivan: I am kind of a little nerdy. But not mega-mind, Jimmy Neutron kind... Like you are. ↩ Reply

Sheiny: Well I train my brain. ↩ Reply

Ivan: Wait the second... ↩ Reply

Sheiny: What? ↩ Reply

Ivan: So... you are a nerdy nerd and you don't like AI? What? ↩ Reply

Mr. Hambleton returned with sugar. He put a few spoons into both of his coffees and gave the sugar to Sheiny, who stirred a few spoons into hers. ↩ Reply

Sheiny: Your brain is valuable. The fact that humans can build AI is only due to our brains being so advanced at the moment. But what you are suggesting is to abandon the brain and degrade to animal-like lunacy, by relying on AI for everything that the brain does. If we will rely on computers too much, we will loose an ability to think. ↩ Reply

Ivan: I used AI and I still can think. ↩ Reply

Sheiny: I'm talking about evolution. We evolved the brain. And now we are actively trying to devolve it. ↩ Reply

Ivan: So it's going to take millions of years? I mean... What's the problem to have AI now? ↩ Reply

Mr. Hambleton: How about safety? ↩ Reply

Ivan: What? ↩ Reply

Mr. Hambleton: You've been in a very dangerous situation once, right? When you failed to be careful with technology. ↩ Reply

Ivan: Ham, the thing is Free Software. ↩ Reply

Mr. Hambleton: Hmm... it depends. ↩ Reply

Ivan: I'm not talking about proprietary AI. ↩ Reply

Mr. Hambleton: Proprietary or Free, we have no idea how it works. See, with proprietary software the user has no idea how it works. But at least the developer does. With AI nobody knows how it works. Including the developer. From the security stand point is an utter nightmare. ↩ Reply

Sheiny: Well I don't think an image generator can cause the World War 3 to happen. ↩ Reply

Mr. Hambleton: Are you sure about it? ↩ Reply

Sheiny: Well perhaps somebody can deep-fake some president saying some atrocity. And it can start a chain of events that will cause a large war. But it's not AI that was the guilty one. ↩ Reply

Mr. Hambleton: Yeah, but I'm not talking about deep-fakes. I'm talking about a minute but realistic probability that it will train for efficiency and find a loophole somewhere that will increase it's efficiency at a cost of somebodies freedom or even live. You know... AI is technically a stubborn psychopathic cheater with OCD. And those don't hesitate murder. ↩ Reply

Ivan: What are you talking about? ↩ Reply

Mr. Hambleton: You know that neural network don't really care about rules. And if we could set those rules, they can and will squeeze through every crack in the rule-package. And will end up killing millions and billions of people. ↩ Reply

Ivan: What are you talking about? ↩ Reply

Mr. Hambleton: You know how AI works? ↩ Reply

Ivan sat in complete and utter confusion. He was thinking that he was talking to a lunatic. ↩ Reply

Sheiny: We can't know how the AI works. ↩ Reply

Mr. Hambleton: Exactly. And that's why we can't ever trust it! ↩ Reply

Sheiny: Well, yes... this is a valid concern. But what I'm telling is that our brain is... well... With regular, human readable software, people advance forward with understanding of things like math and new concepts of computer technology. Even with proprietary software, somebody knows how the damn thing works. And this knowledge, maybe, will be spread with the people. At least it can be spread in theory. With AI, nobody knows how it works. It's literally a black box. So training AI doesn't really advance humans forward. What it does is merely substitutes thinking. ↩ Reply

Mr. Hambleton: So we should not use AI because it makes us dumber? ↩ Reply

Sheiny: I don't think that we should ban AI. But it should be regarded as a nasty thing to use too often. Like drugs. Because if we are going to rely on it, we are going to get dumber with each generation. Since people will not even want to know how technology works anymore. ↩ Reply

Ivan: So then why are you drawing on the computer? ↩ Reply

Sheiny: I'm not using AI. ↩ Reply

Ivan: Yes, but you are using technology not to think too much. ↩ Reply

Sheiny: That is not necessarily true. This program simulates real life materials. Pencils and brushes. I have to use the stylus the same exact way as in the real world. ↩ Reply

Mr. Hambleton: Yes. But I think I understand what Ivan is saying. Sheiny, you have control Z. You can make an outrageous mistake and outright fix it. So you are not as concerned within the mind. Therefor you are using less brain to do the same work. And therefor you are degrading. Slightly... Not as with AI. But still degrading. ↩ Reply

Sheiny: So what are you trying to say? ↩ Reply

Ivan: You have to draw on paper. ↩ Reply

Sheiny: Well, then I suppose I have to use quill and ink. No. I have to carve the drawing in stone. ↩ Reply

Ivan: Yeah. Something like that. ↩ Reply

There was an awkward silence for some moments. ↩ Reply

Mr. Hambleton: That's why I'm talking about security. It's at least not as fallacious. ↩ Reply

Sheiny: Tools are not means of avoiding thinking. ↩ Reply

Mr. Hambleton: You just yourself proved that they are. ↩ Reply

Sheiny: How much thinking avoidance there is between a person lifting a heavy box into a truck and a person using a forklift to lift a heavy box into a truck? I'm more willing to believe that forklift requires more thinking, while it's physically easier. This is a very good use of the brain. ↩ Reply

Ivan: Yeah, but drawing with a computer... well you have control Z. ↩ Reply

Sheiny: Yes, it is convenient enough. But also I have layers, file formats, alpha channel, dynamic filters and many other things, each of which increases the complexity of the job relatively to paper. Yes, ultimately I'm doing the job faster and the result is cleaner. But it's not simpler. I have to think rather hard. I can draw exactly as on paper. And it will look as terribly as on paper. But I want to do a good job, so I separate things into layers. I have groups of layer. Each layer has it's own blending mode. I have to deal with brush settings and filters. It's not easy! ↩ Reply

Mr. Hambleton: Well how about the alien in Sinking In The Fire. We used 3D graphics to render it from different angles. ↩ Reply

Ivan: Yeah, it's not like you've drawn every frame from scratch. ↩ Reply

Sheiny: It's only theoretically simpler to use CGI than to use Krita. You know how much work goes into setting a proper camera track? How much time there goes into relighting... We had to design, build, rig, animate and compose the damn alien into every shot. It was not a trivial task. It's not like I've typed "Add and alien to this shot" and it added an alien to the shot. There was an enormous thinking process involved. ↩ Reply

Ivan: Well, there is an art in typing AI prompts too. ↩ Reply

Sheiny: It's as much art as producing. No disrespect to Mr. Humbert. But producing is basically just managing creative talent so they would produce something of value to you. It could be an art. An art of business I suppose. But not an art in a sense where you have to think through and decide everything. You know, like drawing. Like posing key-frames. Like working for two hours on roto-scoping a bloody hand for three hundred and seventy five frames. ↩ Reply

Ivan: But why should you do something as repetitive as roto-scoping a hand so many times? You can code something to do it for you. ↩ Reply

Sheiny: Exactly. Repetitive, uninteresting tasks should be removed as much as possible. And software can provide that without loosing the ability to understand how it's done. But it should not substitute the creative process. It's like - let's watch films using AI. Let's read books using AI. Why?... since, why would you watch a film? It's too long. It requires you sitting in a chair all that time and looking into one direction. It requires thinking about the plot and motivations of the characters. It's mental work. Why can't we unload that to AI? Well... I'll tell you why. I bloody enjoy doing that kind of mental work! As much as I like watching films, I like reading books. And as much as I like those I like writing or painting or filming, or sometimes even roto-scoping brings me joy. I don't want to give away my joy to a computer. Making it less painful? Yes. That's good. But taking it entirely away. What the hell is that even? Again... I'm not telling you that we should ban AI. But we should not shame people for trying to do things the old way. And we should embrace people that do not look for easy solutions and instead strive for self-growth, for understanding. Not for mere function and leisure. ↩ Reply

Happy Hacking! ↩ Reply

Luc Besson is known to be a little bit of a pervert. But I'm about to argue that, in addition to liking young women, he also has a sort of a fetish. And while with directors like Quentin Tarantino the fetish is something rather understandable ( Quentin likes feet ). Luc Besson seems to be turned on by... well... fish. And specifically by Dolphins. His 1988 film Le Grand Bleu is a love triangle between a young woman, an amphibian man, and a Dolphin ( which the film presents to be a mermaid ).

A number of countries are pushing at the moment laws that would undermine everybody's privacy by making it illegal to communicate with end to end encryption.

πŸ‘ 83 πŸ’¬ 2



News came to me via Mastodon ( a Free / Libre Social Media platform ) that apparently Australian government just banned Social Media to a certain demographic of people and the consensus is that it is apparently a good thing. Social Media tends to be very bad these days. Due to enshitification and mass surveillance of platforms such as Facebook and Ex-Twitter you can give a pretty solid argument why banning social media all together will make things better. But I fail to see nothing else but an expression of age-discrimination in this ban, when not all people are banned, but only children.

"They are taking a mild issue and trying to fix it with absolute apocalypse!" - this became a sentence I like to repeat in various comment sections since I calculated the impact of mass surveillance on well-being of the population. Even in relation to murder, a huge problem, even in relation to the worst offenders in this category, murder is a mild issue, compared to the absolute apocalypse that is total mass surveillance. If you are not convinced, click on that link and go see my calculations for yourself.

So in 2007 TMNT by Kevin Munroe our beloved Ninja Turtles help an old suicidal man finally die. Like yeah, the film is supposedly family-friendly and magical. And the whole suicide thing has to do more with the curse of immortality. But yet. The turtles helped a guy kill himself in this film. And he was very happy to die right in front of them.

Nobody knows everything. The top scientists don't know everything. The science is incomplete. The GΓΆdel's incompleteness theorems show that even something as basic as math ( which we rely on to understand the rest of the world ) is incomplete. And probably logically dubious as well. We can't know everything.

The passing of Gene Hackman made me interested in the actor again, and then I saw that he made a movie with Tony Scott, from Jerry Bruckheimer about surveillance. Recent fascination of mine with Michael Bay and stuff related to him, like the fact that a lot of the style of Bay came almost directly from Tony Scott. And the fact that Bay worked with Bruckheimer in the time this movie was released. And the fact that the star of Bad Boys Will Smith is the star of Enemy of the State. All of that made it inevitable that I should check the movie out.

"Consent" is a word thrown around willy-nilly these days. And yet it feels like people don't really understand it. Some assume one thing while there is a different thing. Some assume another thing, while there is the one thing. And so on and so forth. Consent forms on websites and inside of apps. Sexual Consent. What the fuck is consent? Is it even real?

How daring must be a film studio to make a film applauding the acts of the Japanese Empire not only for the local, but the global market as well. One of the ways to do it, is to make a documentary, use objectivity as a shield for political play. Alternatively it can be about the individuals, who were concerned about the life of brethren than some pity war goals.

Am I bad guy for being so positive about a movie of a person I do not care much about? Well, there is nothing to fret, as the 3D film directed by Billie Eilish is palatable for everyone looking for entertainment. Certainly no masterpiece, the film still hold water in its flow. 3D doesn't work if there is no parallax. And parallax just out there doesn't work if there is no reason for it to exist. The documentary provides ten times that.

The constant tugging from different sides caused me to become restless. I couldn't find peace in any of the ideas, it was impossible. To admit of one being true, would mean rejecting the other. So I had to pick a side. And I did. I chose those that spoke that the truth was hidden, obscured from me. 'Twas easier to believe that I've been lied to and embrace the truth. For some time I was gratified with what I believed in.
