Stubsack: Stubsack: weekly thread for sneers not worth an entire post, week ending 6th July 2025

awful.systemsStubsack: Stubsack: weekly thread for sneers not worth an entire post, week ending 6th July 2025 - awful.systemsNeed to let loose a primal scream without collecting footnotes first? Have a sneer percolating in your system but not enough time/energy to make a whole post about it? Go forth and be mid: Welcome to the Stubsack, your first port of call for learning fresh Awful you’ll near-instantly regret. Any awful.systems sub may be subsneered in this subthread, techtakes or no. If your sneer seems higher quality than you thought, feel free to cut’n’paste it into its own post — there’s no quota for posting and the bar really isn’t that high. > The post Xitter web has spawned soo many “esoteric” right wing freaks, but there’s no appropriate sneer-space for them. I’m talking redscare-ish, reality challenged “culture critics” who write about everything but understand nothing. I’m talking about reply-guys who make the same 6 tweets about the same 3 subjects. They’re inescapable at this point, yet I don’t see them mocked (as much as they should be) > > Like, there was one dude a while back who insisted that women couldn’t be surgeons because they didn’t believe in the moon or in stars? I think each and every one of these guys is uniquely fucked up and if I can’t escape them, I would love to sneer at them. (Credit and/or blame to David Gerard for starting this. Also, happy 4th July in advance…I guess.)

“biological civilization is about to create artificial superintelligence” is it though?

I’m gonna give my quick-and-dirty opinion on this, don’t expect a lengthy defence.

Short answer, no. Long answer: no, intelligence cannot be created by blindly imitating it with mere silicon
