incidents:
- mimi asking the computer to draw {emotion} rectangle in icm_class-1, and it failing to do so.
- asking the computer to make a game on an arduino, but it not understanding the intricacies (and getting them wrong); in ipc_experiments_week-2.
- from ipc_experiments_week-4:

aram asked me why i don’t use chat-gpt to get it to work, and bother racking my head instead.
i told him that it is because i can get it work by asking a chatbot, but (a) i won’t bother understanding how it worked, and (b) i would lose out on all the other potential learning that ‘not knowing’ could lead me to (such as actually understanding what transistors do).
yes, not asking an ai-chatbot consumes more time, but it gives me more than a answer.

readings (and quotes):
- i am an ai hater by anthony moser:
Critics have already written thoroughly about the environmental harms, the reinforcement of bias and generation of racist output, the cognitive harms and AI supported suicides, the problems with consent and copyright, the way AI tech companies further the patterns of empire, how it’s a con that enables fraud and disinformation and harassment and surveillance, the exploitation of workers, as an excuse to fire workers and de-skill work, how they don’t actually reason and probability and association are inadequate to the goal of intelligence, how people think it makes them faster when it makes them slower, how it is inherently mediocre and fundamentally conservative, how it is at its core a fascist technology rooted in the ideology of supremacy, defined not by its technical features but by its political ones.
