It was a bit more than that. The AI was expressing fear of death and stuff but nothing that wasn’t in the training data.

No seriously, the term “late stage capitalism” is so old, it has existed longer than capitalism exited before its coinage. So if this really is the last stage, this last stage is already longer than the stages before were.

Arguably, penguins fly under water because the movement resembles flying more than swimming in birds that do both. But that’s semantics. Don’t mess with them.

That’s a source for point 3 only. Do you have sources for the other points as well?

A map of the world that does not include New Zealand is not worth even glancing at
Was it New Zealand or Utopia? I always confuse those two.

But how do you test it when you are blindfolded as well? Or is the donkey blindfolded? I don’t understand
- Comment on Bonobos can "play pretend" 2 weeks ago:
It’s the same problem with double blind tests. Writing protocol when blindfolded is hard
- Comment on France is next 2 weeks ago:
Not only that.

Did the bonobo play pretend or did the scientists play pretend with an imaginary bonobo?

I might be wrong but I feel that today’s mainstream music is quite generic. Of cause there are bubbles for everything and more than before due to the internet.
I don’t know where to draw the line tho. The top level comment says it’s the early 00’s (or rather quotes Mark Fisher who said that), maybe it’s later. Maybe kids these days don’t listen to what I think is mainstream. Maybe I’m just old and “this is generic and no art” is the new “this is noise and no music”, I donno.

In my defense, I was like 12 or something. I knew the song from my older brother and liked it. My English wasn’t good enough to understand it completely but it spoke to me on an emotional level.
So the shock wasn’t that I was a huge Limp Biskit fan. I can’t name another song and had to look up the spelling writing the comment. The shock was how much older the song was than, well, than me. It spoke to how I felt towards my parent generation but it was basically written by my parent generation.

I think the point isn’t that categories hardened in the sense that they stay distinct but that there are no more experiments, nothing subversive. Stealing and mixing things you know work, is exactly that. Your kid’s diss track will be totally generic with no original idea. That’s the whole point of the comment above, not that it’s exact covers.
- Comment on Probably helps that I'm happy to listen to whatever genre 2 weeks ago:
To play the devil’s advocate here: “music used to be subversive but now it’s all the same, nothing original” sounds just like a grumpy old man yelling at a cloud. Old people will find reasons to hate new stuff.
This isn’t to disagree. I read Capitalist Realism and think the argument works. And personally, I remember how shocked I was to find out that Behind Blue Eyes wasn’t originally by Limp Bizkit but much older and that my mom listened to the punk rock band I liked as a teenager when she was young. My question might be if there ever was anything “new under the sun” but first and foremost, I like the idea as a devil’s advocate.

Wrong again. If you knew the first thing about Roman numerals, you knew that X is 10. So it’s 30 points in total (or in metric units: 3000%)
- Comment on When you're smarter than the teacher that wrote the test 2 weeks ago:
I think it’s intended as “X”, not “0” but I’m not a mathematician

There is a German novel about a boy called Timm Thaler who sold his laughter and in return would win every wager. If he loses one, he will regain his laughter. First he enjoys horserace betting, later he tries to regain his laughter by betting on things that seem possible but he still wins all of them. It takes him 250 pages to finally bet that he gets his laughter back so he gets it either way.
