In other words, just because such a system could be used in this way, is it good that it is being used this way? That’s the energy this is coming from.
But I agree with your premise, even in its snark, none of us are stupid - we should already know.

What the HN shadow mod team is doing is killing the possibility of a long-running, evolving discourse on important topics.
That’s IF they are evolving, otherwise expect two white males.
I’ll just say one thing about this administration. It is often true that when one thing is wrong with a man, then it’s possible all things are wrong with the man. We keep adding to the list, but I’m suggesting the inductive proof here. All things may be wrong with these men, which is scary.
Now I guess, should this be made transparent?
Finally, the echoes of Dr Strangelove are strong with this one. A veritable board room of talking heads that don’t ever really talk about life or death, but just the material numbers of raw commerce or messaging (deterrence) .
I am going to add the spiritual aspect to this. I read a post on Reddit asking if Jesus truly suffered more than anyone else on earth, given that more people suffer for longer than his 24 hours ish on the cross.
Without believing the story of Christ at all, I was still able to do the mental exercise to see that the nature of the pain had nothing to do with the duration. For example, watching your mother watch you get crucified is heart stopping (or to watch another mother have to go through that).
So, what is the purpose of a human feeling that pain as an experiencer or as an observer? Why would our body elicit that psychic pain, why wouldn’t we just focus on the physical and ignore these other things? In that moment, your only concern should be the physical, but it’s not just physical.
The psychic pain almost has no use in a state of physical torture other than to inform the conscious of its duty to morality. Unfortunately, I do not believe science can ever conclude this is the answer (in no possible way, I’m open to being wrong).
For example, who raised you? See, that’s a question you might not understand but it’s the spirit of my original question.
So what am I asking?
In a sense, there’s no argument against the LLM, or God. Take that how you want.
Mark Zuckerberg had to turn around and beg forgiveness from the parents of social media users in Congress. This needed to be broadcast globally, and witnessed, because that event shows the full power of the entire history of what this all was, that by the end of it we had to beg forgiveness. I do believe we’ve crossed a threshold and these topics are now in the forefront. The moral question.
Context is not being stored in Gemini or OpenAi (yet, I think, not to that degree).
My one year’s worth of LLM chats isn’t actually stored anywhere yet and doesn’t have to be, and for the most part I’d want it to be portable.
I’d say this is probably something that needs to be legally protected asap.
I’m gonna add:
- I think this thing can become a universal parser over time.
Stupid question of the day, can we not just force jam a bunch of astronauts into it?
All in all this is something I was looking for or was roughly going to do to compare costs. Cool stuff.
Seems like it would be universally useful.
I’d be tempted to at least try breaking down the notes into one line long images (about a sentence) each and give it ago with Gemini. I haven’t tested their ocr, but even if it has errors, I bet you could just ask Gemini again to best fix the sentence.
