Using a simple text prompt I can immediately generate any kind of image I want. It’s not that much different than a wizard casting a spell.

Yeah, especially if Q* and other AIs can be based in mathematics so it can invent new things that actually work.

Even a simple LLM is a window into the Jungian collective unconscious at time of training, but nobody seems to talk about the philosophical implications of what we have right now.

The Age of perfect robo wives.

For normal humans yes, for those that merge not so much.

There’s websites showing how you can build technomagick circuits with batteries and leds and sigils / potentiometers. I don’t know how it works or if it does but there’s a lot on it. Lucifer Faust shamanic technomagick is a book that teaches you actual magick devices you can make I believe.

    I've been reading various AI forums about if Q* has even a splinter of real development behind it and none of these assholes could describe a linear regression let alone how an LLM works. Everything is already magic to them but they want the creepy incel robo waifu magic.

      But if you can't prove that the LLM isn't conscious/sentient/sapient (like in Blade Runner!) then your own consciousness/sentience/sapience is thrown into doubt. Checkmate, meat computer. smuglord

          Lots of people tried exactly that in that 500+ reply thread and the techbro clown just rolled the unicycle away from those posts and dodged any replying to them. 🤡
