Something not often remarked about in this present age of ours is the resemblance between so-called "artificial intelligence" and demon summoning. Assemblages of (alleged) randomness which get manipulated by supernatural entities into flattering and sycophantic pseudo-language which is used to parasitize (willing and not) human hosts and attempt to get them to forfeit their individuality (being as they are made in the image of God) in favor of being absorbed into the collective thought-entity thusly being constructed. Even something like God (the PRNG oracle) in TempleOS carries this risk, but the further up the chain you move (early LMs being novelty oracles and present-day LMs being Artificial Redditors), the more present and damning the risk becomes.

@allison@hidamari.apartments Nope, it's just a plagarism machine. When it takes about demons, it's drawing from reddit posts and novels. Simple as.

@allison@hidamari.apartments attempt to get them to forfeit their individuality [..] in favor of being absorbed into the collective thought-entity thusly being constructed it feels like a lot of people have already had this happen to them to some extent the way people see “society”, as a hivemind people exist to serve LLMs are just something to complete the loop further a way of approaching an avatar of the perfectly generic member of their ‘society’

@allison@hidamari.apartments you wouldn't recognize a demon if you bumped into one mid day mid summer
