If modern architects had free hand our cities would all look like Le Corbusier‘s dystopian plans he made for Paris. I regard modern Architects as the biggest aesthetic terrorists of our time. You can ignore bad paintings, music, movies, computer games or sculptures, but you can’t ignore bad houses, because if there are no alternatives left you have to live in them.

History LLMs. Imagine talking to an AI that doesn't know WWI happened because it was only trained with pre 1911 data:

If you think that you are a worthless looser, remember that some years ago somebody spent $69 million for this NFT. Today it‘s worth less than $100

We should wordmaxx without mercy. Don’t believe 20. century propaganda that tells your gullible brain to dump down your speech for the comfort of the masses. Language is an instrument. Why play pop all the time, when you can create a symphony instead? Use strange and intricate words. Play with nuance and subtlety. Demand from your audience to occasionally stumble and use a dictionary. Yes, you can compress your speech and flatten it, like a Bauhaus facade. But believing that such as process causes no ontological loss of meaning is as naive as thinking that friction is a bug rather than a feature.
