i’m working on tooling for versioned nodes - a replacement for files better suited to collaboration across asynchronous networks. this is the first step in a vision for wild computing, which promotes the needs of ~individual operators and collaborators~ _cooperators_ above centralization and standardization. it’s my primary passion project at the moment, so i expect it to show up here a lot.
i live in a housing coop, participate in buying coops, and am trying to form a worker coop. i’m also fascinated by the details of how cooperatives function and how that affects the resulting collaborative effort - especially consensus building.
i make things. mostly functional, sometimes pretty.
spectra, rainbows, and gamuts are ofttimes pretty!
i love many people in many ways. more relationship anarchist than poly. i’m vaguely agender, mostly demi, sometimes ace, and someday want to grow up to be a cat-sized robotic dragon. those labels are descriptive, not normative or prescriptive.
i strive to support the autonomy of all beings and seek to cultivate mutual benefit and regard in all interactions between being to the extent that i am able.
talk to me about any of the above!
please don’t talk to me about food (and content warnings for food are appreciated!)
i especially dislike meat and will mute, unsubscribe, and block freely based on that.

@JayDee@lemmy.ml @rysiek@mstdn.social I would characterize the AI safety folks (at least 10 or so years ago) not so much being concerned so much with intelligence as optimization power - the ability to guide a system toward a particular set of states (typically favorable to the agent). I believe the decision-making parts of that are what they are talking about when they say intelligence. That lends itself pretty well to rigorous definition and is pretty clearly related to intelligence in humans and animals (but also probably not everything we mean by intelligence there).
That said, I doubt the vast majority of AI hype-mongers are thinking about that. That said, I doubt the authors of the linked paper are thinking about that either.
