Okay to be clear, even though I made that joke about using the site's open source code, I don't plan on leaving. I was only saying Kyle Drake's written opinion on AI was disappointing / frustrating, ikyk

I've always been passively interested in this subject so this is super duper interesting! I also wanted to ask: on your page regarding the soundbond code, you mention a similar, old code for autistics! Do you happen to have the link to that? It sounds very interesting!

This is the variation I was able to find. I don't know much about it or who made it, though. https://web.archive.org/web/20080616220325/https://autcode.neurelitism.com/

I generally don't give content warnings, but I'm going to give one for this entry because it's particularly bad: transphobia. Like, a loooot of it.

Do any of you guys have that article that's about passphrases? I remember it mentions Babe Ruth and "jungle" for Amazon as examples.

I found this one which briefly mentions Babe Ruth, but says nothing about Amazon or jungles https://www.cheswick.com/ches/papers/auth.pdf (also see https://www.cheswick.com/ches/talks/ for some related content)

Who wants to use this site's open source code to make an alternate hosting? :3
this writeup is from more a year ago and it's clearly not addressing the typical AI skeptics that have a much stronger case these days, but rather the tech doomsday cultists of the time that are deserving of just as much ridicule than the AI pushers.
The backdrop was also most certainly this letter, which was all about the whole corporate lobbying and the AI PR about how the technology is supposedly dangerous because it "will result in AGI" and thus it has to be monopolized by large corpos to have free reign over it: https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2023/mar/29/elon-musk-joins-call-for-pause-in-creation-of-giant-ai-digital-minds
