Undiagnosed by the mainstream media and much of the academic community, a major intellectual renewal is underway across the left. It is energetic and tech-savvy, building platforms such as Novara Media.

<![CDATA[Why making if-then connections might be the key to consciousness | Aeon Videos]]> https://aeon.co/videos/why-making-if-then-connections-might-be-the-key-to-consciousness

As recently as just a few decades ago, the interconnected web of experiences, thoughts and emotions known as a ‘stream of consciousness’ was widely believed to belong to humans alone. A still-accumulating body of evidence, however, strongly indicates that consciousness is far from unique to us.

A friend of mine texted me earlier this week to ask what I thought of ChatGPT. I wasn’t surprised he was curious. He knows I write about AI and is the sort of guy who keeps up with whatever’s trending online.

<![CDATA[Creative and/or weird uses and abuses of Twitch streaming]]> http://ask.metafilter.com/mefi/368439

I am interested in innovative, creative uses and/or abuses of the Twitch streaming platform. Streamers who have used the platform as a creative medium, regardless of its (main) intention as a place for game streaming. Art and performance are what come to mind, but I am open to anything, either a single use case or a particular streamer who uses Twitch in an ongoing 'weird' way. My knowledge of Twitch is small, so I am limited on examples of what I mean... but the streamer 'Sushi Dragon' is doing super amazing things. Using the Twitch platform as a way for viewers to kind of 'programme' his dancing routines. Users respond in live chat, and the responses determine what music is played, filters drafted, and how Sushi Dragon is supposed to respond (and dance). The results are often hilarious.

------Curiosity Stream Sign Up Link----- https://curiositystream.com/fdsignifier

After a few months of “success” on the platform, I sat to contemplate my journey from unknown content creator scraping for views to hot new video essayist and legit “left tuber”. This contemplation led to numerous questions and ponderings, and as I dived into those questions I started to get frustrated the answers that I arrived at. I got tired of people asking me “where have you been this whole time” when I knew I had been just quietly treading water, wondering why my videos weren’t being seen, and wondering why I barely saw any creators in the mold of what I wanted to do.

To explore these emotions, I talked to a variety of creators and experts on the nature of YouTube as a media platform the algorithmic systems that govern it, and the greater culture around it. I delved into my own concerns and observations about the landscape of YouTube, especially “left tube”.

This video is my thesis on what challenges I and other black creators face.

<![CDATA[Zuboff is a PSYOP]]> https://huffduffer.com/therourke/584849

Cold open: Agent Zuboff receives her mission.

Main show: We politically cancel Shoshana Zuboff, author of The Age of Surveillance Capitalism, for advancing / mainstreaming a reactionary critique. Surveillance capitalism is not a “rogue mutation” of a normal capitalism. Surveillance is not the scapegoat that needs to be sacrificed so we can maintain a good version of consumption and commodification. We let you in on a little secret—one that Zuboff’s work is designed to obscure—the real horrors have been coming from inside capitalism all along.

Morozov’s article on Zuboff’s bad analysis of surveillance capitalism: https://thebaffler.com/latest/capitalisms-new-clothes-morozov

Monthly Review article with good analysis of surveillance capitalism: https://monthlyreview.org/2014/07/01/surveillance-capitalism/

<![CDATA[Celeste All Red Berries, but faster than you've ever seen it (TASBot SGDQ 2019 TAS block)]]> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ovaMlxgLLi4

TASBot takes the Celeste All Red Berries train and discovers CovertMuffin blocks (with downtime edited out) by euni, fishmcmuffins, and kilaye, joined on the couch by TGH, buhbai, Kevin from PowerUp Audio, and dwangoAC at the SGDQ 2019 TAS block. This TAS is incredible, complete with a massive chain of red berries following Madeline up the mountain.

GDQ set the donation incentive to $175k to see this game and viewers responded resoundingly, filling the donation incentive with plenty of time to spare. This Celeste All Red Berries TAS represents over 2,000 hours of effort spearheaded by euni with help from fishmcmuffins and kilaye. This TAS was made with tools pioneered by DevilSquirrel and extended over time by others.

The commentary on this run is some of the best at any GDQ, with frequent asides from TGH on realtime viability and developer commentary right on the couch from Kevin who helped in the creation of the game. This run even includes a surprise beyond the jawdropping; unbeknownst to many, Kevin from PowerUp Audio secretly altered the sound played by his namesake blocks to spread some FWAHAHA love.

Note: During the event a minor startup issue occurred which required restarting the run; that section has been edited out of the video. Additionally, the GDQ sound board crashed during the run causing 10 seconds of lost audio after which the run was paused until the issue could be resolved. The downtime during that issue was also edited. The run is otherwise unbroken as evidenced by the countdown timer and everything presented is a legitimate playthrough; the tools used to create this TAS do not alter gameplay in any way and this represents the fastest possible way to navigate the game based on how the game is written. There is no cheating on display here, only hours of dedication by the TAS authors to determine the fastest possible route through the game while collecting every single Red Berry in the game.
