How can LLMs make national infrastructure more voluntary and inclusive, rather than throwing us into a technocracy, a thread (maybe). An LLM representiative system, coupled with UBI and extended income programs, is the completion of the voluntary and inclusive national infrastructure discussed ITT.

I have discussed the formation of a non-governmental universal basic income and extended income program, which can easily be bootstrapped and expanded organically, many times in various threads. Not sure if I've ever actually written it out in a root thread, so here we go.

So here's a 🧵 #UBI

"No." If you do not recognize and honor Jewish existence and the connection that all Jews share to our indigenous homeland, and you happen to live in any part of the world that is majority Christian or Muslim and thus SHOULD very well understand Jewish existence, you are an enemy of the Jews.

I wish it were just online but here they are right around here claiming that the victims of the holocaust did the very genocide Hitler said they'd do on day 1.

While there absolutely plenty of terrorists among them, we know military and police are shit and there are absolutely innocents along them too. Let them celebrate if they celebrate peace not war.

Thinking that the Leviathan can be tamed and they're the right one to do it unlike everyone else before them who has either failed to tame it or turned it against the innocent.

I suppose USA 1 was a lot more durable than USA 0 (under the original Articles of Confederation). Still I would caution following spurious trends.

Why are people calling to nationalize more shit when we just saw how easy it is for national infrastructure to fall into the hands of a bad tyrant?

We are going to need
1. A Nuremberg style trial
2. Nationalization of Big Tech
3. A Social services program that makes The New Deal look puny in comparison

You think a shift from recognizing Zionism as Jewish nationalism to painting it as the very thing Hitler said it was has nothing to do with threats towards Jewish existence?

Tools are still early unfortunately but it'll become easier and easier just as building webpages became much easier.

No idea if voxsites will largely replace traditional websites, but either way, I really want to build a few voxsites.

Say Hello to Voxsites!

Coining a term for the next generation of platforms on the internet.

An important preface is that I consider the near future to see a proliferation of LLMs. I would be surprised if in 10 years "voxsites" won't be as common as websites. Connecting those voxsites together so they can interact with one another, query each other, etc. benefits from Gopher like protocols.

Nothing specific other than the little bit that I've written as a series of ideas with old scrap that needs to be completely rewritten. lol

Of course you're going to say that's not what the term means so forget that I call it "Zionism." Do you recognize and honor Jewish existence and the connection that all Jews share to our indigenous homeland in the Levant?

Zionism is the recognition and honoring of Jewish existence and the connection that all Jews share to our indigenous homeland in the Levant. Most Jews are Zionists.

I'm a huge fan of Gopher or a similar text based menu driven protocol as the interconnect for large language models and the data they access.

Hard rejection there. No. Most were forcibly coverted or killed for refusing to do so.
