"“AI isn’t magic; it’s a pyramid scheme of human labor,” said @adiod.bsky.social , a researcher at the Distributed AI Research Institute based in Bremen, Germany. “These raters are the middle rung: invisible, essential and expendable.”

This tent belongs to an artist– a virtuoso– who needs no introduction. I will not erode their exhibition with idle explanation, or inept erudition.

Professor Pandemonium's Peculiar Panoply, episode 8: Pizzicato the Great, the Tightrope Walker

An aged canvas banner with gold fringe around the edges. On the banner is a picture of a man walking the tight rope. Underneath him is a shadowy image of a man hanging from his ankle by the rope. In an arch above the top man is written "Pizzicato the Great" to the left "high wire artist" and to the right "thrilling feats of dexterity and skill!"

I love every episode of this show, but this one is a particular favorite. @corvyna.bsky.social 's style and tone and voice /work/ for my brain, and I'm looking forward to getting to hear more of their work.

counterpoint: these exact same losers say the exact same thing every time anybody talks back or puts a girl in a video game or whatever so i don't think the liberal urge to performatively flinch at the canned backlash is a useful reflex in 2025
