I mean even defining what is the “common good” is political and that is the point of the exercise. If art exists that is deemed bad for society then we tend to ban it. For example, there are people who define CSAM as art, but the cost to society is so great we don’t allow even the possession of such material.

I wouldn’t mind being a garbage truck driver, but I do mind being forced to pee in a bottle to make a quota

I can think of 3 million reasons why Macklemore making a statement would save lives (1 reason for every $1 raised so far)

Hey OP, why do billionaires flex their power to protect a genocide and are surprised when it comes with consequences?

Because saying it is bad to bomb children should not be controversial and we need to set that expectation.

That’s a distinction without a difference. The machine doing the inference is not the same machine doing the learning. From the perspective of the machine doing LLM inference, it could not tell you if the table was hand rolled by a human, fitted using ML or just a table of random noise.

Technically right in that it doesn’t necessarily translate audio into text, but that’s hardly the point. The point is someone gives the LLM a giant table that directs its response.

I think you grasp the point, it is exactly what an LLM does

Someone give this person a congressional hearing and billions of dollars to burn

It’s what follows the signifiers that’s the tell

Yes, using the word “capitalism” is a signifier, but I wouldn’t say it’s counterproductive. Based on a person’s response you can quickly conclude whether they have the historical context to understand the critique. Defining capitalism as “a market-based” system is ahistorical , markets existed before capitalism. It is very hard to surface the critique while also writing a wall of text that describes how capitalism came to be and how it was later moderated

The issue is the term is meaningless if it isn’t grounded in history. If it simply means “the system you live in” then it says nothing of how it came to be and what can come after.

You could say the same of history if you know nothing about it

So much of our political malaise boils down to thinly vieled daddy issues.

It’s good for the artists, popularity is decided by the masses instead of a channel. But it’s bad for share holder value.

There are far more conservatives in academia than actual leftists. And there are more liberals in academia than both groups combined. See Catherine Liu for an example of an actual leftist in academia who speaks on this dynamic.

And “States” when some are barely

That’s an ideal solution. The best solution is what works immediately and within your capabilities.
