The PFCizer - 1 - Don't Resent the Messenger

Season 5, no big whoop. This whole season will be dedicated to the prefrontal cortex. Maybe, unless it is found that the brain isn't as simple as that. Maybe we should stop now? Nope. Science has progressed even while it was wrong, so we can too, and change upon new info. This is the introduction, a kind of tutorial for the PFCizer, a cognitive workout device that is meant to get your prefrontal cortex swole, but the tough part of getting people to use it is trying to convince them they need to use it, or try and make it so they thought of it themselves. Why is it that the people who stuck with you the longest, who have tolerated your poopiest selves are given thanks in the form of your never-ending, withering resentment. Do you send a hitman to off the guy who gave you the answers for your standardized test, 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.
