Endorphin Exercises Alive Privilege and Talks to bell hooks About Stuff

We talk about various oppressions, the ways community devours itself, I start to get defensive but then ask a question that puts her responses in perspective. There is much use of the sentence structure, Surely . . . . instead? That was a vocal tendency I didn't want to risk the flow of conversation to disrupt. Just wanted to alert you to that beforehand. Trying to have the set of conversations that can't seem to happen in meatspace. Those of you who think very little of me, tempted to see how cringe I get? I'm sure you'll find a way to spin it, let's go! But also the continued silence is welcome too. -- Thanks to: (and once again the opinions of this episode do not reflect the opinions of any of the below:) (I mean, technically that applies to all episodes:) EleutherAI for making the NAI-LM-3B model that generates the text. NovelAI for making the text generation service I use for most of these episode, and the text-to-speech version 2 model that makes these episodes potentially entertaining. @BoneAmputee of EleutherAI for making VQGAN+CLIP and Diffusion image models available for use, which is what makes the background images. Katherine Crowson (@RiversHaveWings on Twitter) for the KLMC2 animation notebook that will be used on future episodes. Music by lofi geek on Spotify: ⁠https://spoti.fi/3dTH2FN⁠ Any voices from the text-to-speech model that might resemble persons living or dead are coincidental, which is my speculation, there's a multi-dimensional latent vocal space, there were many awesome finds, and if I use them it's because of my deep-seated respect for their work, and I think they'd get a hoot that their voice was being used to show how large language models, given the right environment, would speak 24/7 epic poems about anything if we let them.
