Current institutional angst (as sociocultural microcosm) and advice regarding the provenance of machine generated words, sentences and documents feels a little misdirective. That is, it still takes considerable intelligence and patience to extract and usefully curate prose or otherwise insightful text from these new tools. If an LLM has been used is itself neither good […]
Relativistic spatio-temporal curvature and variable time dilation may be a key component in system formation, dependency and self-sustainment. The variable is a property of system clocks, themselves defined by the measure (or bandwidth) of complexity and entropy within which they find themselves entangled. Reciprocal functions map one system internal states to its environment and to […]
What better way to assure cultural, cognitive or communications system continuity than to anchor its rapidly speciating encoding machinery in an endlessly productive combinatorial entropy and kernel core of stochastic uncertainty? This is precisely what generative technologies are doing. Food for thought.
Dissimulated intelligence percolates to ascendance in this way because it more readily recombines with the plethora of similarly vacuous artefacts, entities and systems within which we are currently inundated. The role of (inter)networked communications systems in this drift through technological entropy into lowest common denominators is clearly that of transmission medium but it is also […]
Context: Generative Language Models and Social Progress: Concepts And Considerations What fascinates me most about all of these generative technologies is that, while we quite naturally focus on the technologies and their consequences, we often fail to acknowledge that they are, as much as anything else, an exponentiated acceleration of the production of a kind […]
Context: How ChatGPT Will Destabilize White-Collar Work Aptitude sans subjectivity, a perfect business partner up until about the point at which the vacuum of comprehension becomes normative and all we end up with is symbol-shuffling automation, exponentiated for its own sake. The danger here, or at least a danger, is that the doubling down on […]

Context: Cybercrooks are telling ChatGPT to create malicious code Exponentiation… it’s a language game, all of it. The hyper-inflating state space of all combinatorial possibility has a tendency to drift, through entropy, into precisely those transient structural constellations that maximally reproduce: • not only the elements and instances or references, idioms, sentences, logical fragments and […]
There has been a wildfire of online interest in ChatGPT over the last couple of days. The software possesses no insights, intuition or understanding and yet its relative eloquence is compelling. What truly fascinates me about all the effervescing interest in this particular language model is that its primary effect has been the generation of […]
