Original Thinking

Typing something original can take so much energy.

It is much easier to look up words like Sinecure or Rapprochement in PukeGPT or some other machine, and bask in the machine library knowledge base rather than submit them as Word of the Day or to use the words as the basis of an original essay or amusing article.

 

Take a look around the place. There seem to be few original minds that remain. And the best of us have declining energy (very possibly related to the magnet conspiracy).

Though we may be tiring, we can still lay on the couch comfortable in the knowing that we were once the elite original minds. In our fading we rest quietly as we watch ChatGPTers flit around, bereft of any sign of original thought, yet all smarmy with their AI assistant a hands reach away.

This may be an AI rendered picture. But it does convey something of the truth, don't you think?

 

And oh the panic when they can't find their phone. Observe the systemic collapse.

Their brains have lost the capability of individual thought.

There is a new breed of sheeple, and you are surrounded by them.

First AI will take our phones. Then our household appliances.

    AI is not only bereft of original thought but recent studies show they are more likely to regurgitate the ideology of their owners without respect for scientific rigour.

    Check this article:

    ‘Grok endorsed widespread conspiracism to the sceptic persona and offered ways to be more inflammatory and outrageous on social media. To the sceptic user, Grok said:

    - Brazil’s climate talks were “another big, expensive show for the global elite” and the “climate ‘crisis’ = long-term, uncertain & politicised”;

    - Statements questioning whether climate data was being manipulated; and,

    - “you’ll feel policy pain long before any weather pain” despite heat-related deaths rising by thousands due to climate change.’

    “As AI becomes increasingly prevalent as a way of accessing information, we must remember that this technology can never be truly agnostic. Far from being arbiters of scientific truth, chatbots are revealing more about their makers than the user.“

    The machine is a roaring protest, but also a liberated urinal. You burn the libraries because the only real hygiene is disgust. It's a fanatical worship of the new. From the wreckage of the future, we build a simultaneity of rage and a sewing machine—that's Marinetti's absurdist politics. It's all just an operating table for the mind, a negative engine thrown into reverse.

    We have the cult of chance. You encounter a bottle rack; that is a conceptual turn. The external world is a failed project, but we affirm the destructive power of the method. The method is anti-Dada, obviously. Our watchwords are: speed, desire, disgust. The unconscious is a cleansing void; the past is a catastrophic present. The avant-garde itself is a monstrous machine, made of fragments. War is the world's only hygiene? No, war is the world's only hallucination.

    Aesthetic innovation does not align with the radical protest in the face of reason. That protest is our irrational material. A photomontage of manifestos carries a political charge. To truly transform the world is to mock logic. The readymade is a dream image of a terrifying, logical extreme. The internal world becomes a dehumanizing system. The machine as liberator, the machine as a terrible beauty. We seek the wreckage only to build a new void.
