Same. I'm not submissive in bed but the idea of dominating someone does not really turn me on.

The most based man on the internet.

If someone irl mentions Nick Land, is pretty much confirmed they lurk this cesspool, right?

Usually just phenibut + drinks. Every now and then though I'll sautée a quarter gram of cannabis in a barely-hot skillet of butter then incorporate into whatever meal I've prepared for myself

Now he just needs to not start any more wars and abolish the fed

Start by reading Land's "Meltdown": http://www.ccru.net/swarm1/1_melt.htm
Don't worry, it's not meant to make sense yet.

Read the rest of Gibson's early SF work - the Burning Chrome anthology of short stories, Count Zero, and Mona Lisa Overdrive. Read Gravity's Rainbow for extra credit.

Peter Watts - Starfish, then Blindsight. Read Strosa's Accelerando and The Metamorphosis of Prime Intellect.

Reread Meltdown, and recoil in horror as it begins to make a sick kind of sense. What have you become?

His speculative fiction is really good. I got it on kindle. If someone knows how to strip it of encryptions I can post it here...

>as machines are getting closer to acquiring human-like language abilities, they are also absorbing the deeply ingrained biases concealed within the patterns of language use

>The latest paper shows that some more troubling implicit biases seen in human psychology experiments are also readily acquired by algorithms. The words “female” and “woman” were more closely associated with arts and humanities occupations and with the home, while “male” and “man” were closer to maths and engineering professions.

>And the AI system was more likely to associate European American names with pleasant words such as “gift” or “happy”, while African American names were more commonly associated with unpleasant words.


What are the implications of this on Land's "All meatbags will be obliterated by AI" thesis?

What does /lit/ think about Nick Land?
