AI can’t Jam – Music, Art, and Stacking Boxes or The Human Domain
Can AI create the same type of novelty that a person existing at a specific point in history can? A person with unique experiences in a specific point of history? I don’t think so.

Creativity and Mindfulness – A Rough Sketch of the Interplay of Art, Time, and Person
Rough draft of some ideas on enriching life through art, mindfulness, and cultivation. As well as some stray thoughts on synchronicity and the creative process.
Yes, I know the title is ponderous. Yes, I know I’m holding a guitar without playing and yes it does look pretentious. But I was practicing and then the idea came.
AI based Logistics? There Aren’t Enough Chips For PS5…! Trucking Jobs Aren’t Going Anywhere…
Chip shortages, material shortages, labor shortages all bleak things except for the one silver lining.
Relatively lucrative driving jobs probably aren’t going anywhere for a while!

Maddow Defense and the Degenerate Legal Climate in the United States
It is now enshrined in law that there is an implied understanding that liberal hosts are just providing commentary even though they’re part of a major news network. Even to the extent that they can make factual claims about other people.
This stands while the speech of taxpayers, physicians, senators and sitting president’s is being throttled for the sake of the freedom of speech of a….platform?

Driving Jobs Aren’t Going Anywhere
A car already has thousands of moving parts. Add AI to the mix and you exponentially increase the potential for shit going wrong. Logistics jobs etc.. aren’t going anywhere in the near and probably not so near future.

Dust Span – Questions for Ockham
I live behind dirty walls.
My knees ache.
The nervous shake of the right leg is automatic.
Probably to counter the ache in the left shoulder…blade.
For balance.
What is complete?
What is complex?
What is control?
Comfort:
The answer is not a question.
A million suns collapse and I am born.
Dust span.
Gather what I can.
Magnetic.
Automatic.
Shaking leg.
Shoulder ache.
Tension.
Balance.
Fission.
Zero, None.

More Thoughts on Automation
Automation pales in comparison as a driving force of unemployment to outsourcing and assbackward pay structures that hire two high paid managers to oversee the work of one underpaid productive employee.
These are social problems not technological problems.
Maybe if everyone stopped having a wank about trendy topics that give them an air of intellectualism like robots, AI, IQ, etc there wouldn’t be hordes of degreed zombies from good intellectual stock burning down cities.
Credentialism is a disease.
I really hope that apocalypse isn’t the cure.
