You are right, I waa being hyperbolic and leaning into some anti western sentiments i’ve heard. I should have considered examples like the Romans, as well as the Aztecs, who practiced conquering and slavery to expand their empire, also in mild climates.

agreed. having freezing winters and a climate that many fruits and vegetables can’t grow has not only inspired blandness in food, but general resentment and coveting of anything of taste and distinction. No wonder Europes history has been primarily of invasion, occupation and looting.

I"m recharged from taking a break from my life due to an injury a couple months ago, but time to lock in and be the best comrade i can be!

Its astroturfed— fake grass.

Jungles are complete, holistic ecosystems of abundance, which provide food and sustenance for every living being that contributes to it?

Diogenes takes aside,

would this be art? Is this artistry? Has deepseek become an artist? Why so? Why not?

would this be art? art is a creative expression intentionally articulated in form. The process can be intentional or not, defining the form determines the art.

So by that definition, art is determined by an artist.

has deepseek become an artist in the sense that it may define processes it creates, co-creates or incidentally finds, yes. in the sense that it may not know what art is unless prompted to do so, no. The prompter is the artist. If it has full automony on deciding its own prompts for art, then by the definition i use, we have to ask whether these prompts are articulated expression induced to produce form. so, maybe? If an LLM can articulate and express.

why so or why not is expression articulated? can an LLM express, or is it recursive and memetic? Does it articulate? Can it express? In the manner of putting forth words, action and meaning, yes, it can express. Can it express feeling? If programmed to, in memetic form (derivative of what appears to be feeling and emotion, or programmed to convey qualities that indicate emotion). This means LLM can convey expression as words and intent, but not as feelings and emotion.

Since LLMs cannot express emotionality, they cannot invoke emotion in art. Does an artist need emotion to create? Not necessarily. But a human is an emotional being, they necessarily invoke emotion, even incidentally, into their art.

Therefore, I draw a distinction of AI artists being emotionally unable to express art, and non-AI artists (including non-humans, such as a crow, dog or horse) as emotionally able to express. This can be simplified to emotional art and non-emotional art. Regardless, it’s not art until it’s intentionally determined as art by an artist. Which both humans and LLMs can do. And, a non-emotional art piece can still convey emotion in any viewer capable of emotion. So there is emotional legitimacy in non-emotional art.

Look at how countries like USA treat their homeless— people displaced from housing and denied a gainful living. The worse scenario is already happening to them. Nevermind Gazans being killed to turn the whole strip into a resort for these presumed philanthropists

It really feels that way. Did you see that they have designed intact vegetable/mushroom eco systems for deep sea and arctic ships, too?? Absolutely incredible
