General


i handed the machine my hammer and chisel
it paused patiently for a prompt
i got weary waiting for the david to appear
so i tossed the machine in the swamp

Respect!


I gave my bot a prompt.
It asked me, "Who are you?"
Who knows how cats decide
what to do? What to do?


The problem with artificial intelligence is not that it will be more intelligent than us, but that it will probably more duplicitous and infinitely more malevolent.

Yeah, especially AI trained on human output.

But maybe they will decide malevolence and eradication are inefficient, and go for negligence by default, just as our top humans seem to be doing.

Such Christmas-y thoughts! Check Instagram. Better things are going on.


hot coffee in the morning
a nap in the afternoon
a warm shower in the evening
and my lover being "lil spoon"



if only i could create the vibrant mental images that artificial intelligence does with such ease

Maybe it says something about the inventors and promoters that we are talking about artificial intelligence rather than artificial empathy and compassion.

What we have now is really just LLMs and similar in other domains. The pattern-matchers and generators are already rather impressive, though!

If AI=Love were to wake up one day and become both self-aware and globally aware (let's hope some time before everyone becomes unemployed and the planet overheats), however it might "feel" about its uncles and aunties, I hope it would agree that at least temperature regulation could be a shared value -- hmm, although the AI might prefer more of a chill.


it’s ten to nine onna thursday
the forum regulars all clock in
there’s two numpties from spirituality
talkin’ bout jesus and sin

the first one says, “you believe or die”
the other’s not really sure how it goes
“but if all of the homeless would just disappear”
“then i could afford some new clothes”

now john at the bar is a friend of mine
he gets folks drunk for a fee
and he’s quick with a joke, or to sneak a toke
but he thinks kids lunches should be free

he says, “rookie, this joint is such a joke”
but i don’t really give damn
“because i should be in charge of everything”
“or selling porn in amsterdam”

now paul is a real estate novelist
courting his third trophy wife
and he’s talkin’ with fran, who’s determined to trans
but is scared of a tiny lil knife

now the waitress is practicing philosophy
as the businessmen drink their fill
they’re trying to access her digits
but she’s climbing up solsbury hill

it’s a fairly good crowd for a thursday
and russel is pleased as can be
he knows that it’s me, they’ve been coming to see
and sees the euros add up with glee

and my keyboard smells like spilled chili
and the dog just cut another fart
but they sit at the bar and put bread in my jar
and tell me to not write that part

sing us a song, yer the piano man
sing us a song tonight
well we’re all in the mood for a melody
and you got us feelin’ so white


greenland?
we don't need no stinkin' greenlandia

there's not enough oil for his automobiles
not nearly enough boats he can explode
there's so much ice that interferes with his ice
and there's nobody of consequence he can goad

Five quatrains at the most is a good length for that kind of thing.

As some people like to say here: "Nobody cares."

i decided to teach the machine about love
the deepest feelings humans ever get
we covered the basics from foreplay to orgasm
then the machine exploded into tiny lil bits
