Super Foul Egg posted:When you look outside you actually mean you sit on the internet acting as a panoptic sponge absorbing all of the world's issues. I don't mean that, I mean just existing in one place, at one time, that you have chosen, and like, where the rest of it doesn't matter for a brief moment. It's like social games but the faces move correctly.

Frog Act posted:I took a seminar on science technology and history and there was this long insufferable book we read about how everyone is a cyborg because cybernation has cyborgized our lives and it was totally incoherent, I still don't quite understand the use of "cyborg" in the context of STS but it seems to mean "any individual who has to interact with technology repeatedly as part of their daily life" Today, I am a fountain pen.

Tulip posted:as stalin said, bureaucracy is the price we pay for impartiality, and any functional bureaucracy is going to be a bunch of people who have to set aside their human feelings about cases to instead prioritize if the paperwork was filed correctly, living with faith that the rules & the process are more important than their own judgment. to have a bureaucracy that does not function in that way is to have a totally nonfunctional bureaucracy stalin was wrong about that, and capitalism proves it every day, through towering city blocks of bank-men who have the ears of prime ministers; million-headed armies of nations and the love of your own mother. et cetera.

Tulip posted:yea 100%, i just like to reiterate that the form is more generic than corporations: the same zombifying, paper-clip-collecting feedback loops happen without the specifics of being a for-profit corporation, they just collect bouncy balls instead of paper clips i wouldn't say it's generic. rather, the modern second-order cybernetic corporation is the product of the older, first-order cybernetic mode of organization.

The Wisest Moron posted:Could you clarify what you mean by first and second order? suppose that 20th century bureaucracies and 21st century corporations are both a kind of autopilot. the 20th century bureaucracy is then a first-order autopilot: here, our automatic pilot must be joined to the ailerons with care, because if they are not joined right, any disturbance becomes self-perpetuating. for a plane, that manifests as accumulating roll and eventually crashing, while for a bureaucratic organization, it manifests as shirking, evading, weaseling, sandbagging, and eventually organizational failure. how shall I join the ailerons to combat this? carefully. systems with second-order feedback, or second-order cybernetics, don't accumulate error like that. if we join the ailerons the wrong way, second-order autopilots adapt by a kind of embracing the instability, initially behaving as the first-order autopilot and increasing the disturbance. but where the error grows stably in the first-order autopilot, in the second-order autopilot, the accumulating error instead causes it to behave randomly--the more error, the more randomly--and the random behavior continues and must continue until the roll returns to zero. thus, how shall I join the ailerons? it doesn't matter. join them any which way you like; the mechanism will sort itself out.

Plank Walker posted:my theory is that electronics manufacturers were pretty much making 0 money off of tv sales until hd was set as the new standard and prices dropped enough for everyone with a tv to eventually upgrade. the companies then based all future income off the 2-3 years where just about everyone bought a new tv and have been trying to recapture that, the end goal being tvs having a smartphone-like product cycle, where something new comes out every couple years and everyone wants to upgrade. this doesn't work at all but they've tried with 3d tvs, curved displays, 4k/5k/6k etc but hd is "enough" for the majority of the market so tvs remain as just "appliances" and they gotta shove ads in there or go back to their old income model

You could probably run into someone who could tell you about weights and tokenizers and attention heads and poo poo but to most people you just run code that feeds a training set into a Transformer model and it starts generating different output.
