  • Language is, in addition to being a basis for communication, a set of tools for thought. Each word can enable the contemplation of whole concepts. Try to explain or think about time without using the word time, for example. The AI we have is a map of our langauge, of some of the tools we use for thought. This map is being sold as the territory. Ai is being sold as thought.

    At a minimum, privacy requires understanding, feeling, and veracity. AI can provide none of these things, being absent of thought as it is, and as such has no place in this space.





  • As best I understand it, the chick to be doesn’t grow in the yolk, but on it. What is left of the yolk is still attached to the chick when it hatches, and acts as a food supply for the chick for about 3 days. This is one of the reasons newly hatched chicks can be shipped through the mail. I would posit that eggs have evolved to grow chicks in the middle for the same reason hens turn their eggs regularly, to prevent long term blood flow loss to whatever part of the body the chick’s weight would be on. Growing closer to the middle of the eggs will let the Lil chicks to float for as long as possible before starting to rest weight on the “down” side of the shell.

    Edit: I dont think the yolk has internal structures.
