How is this different than FTP?

It’s the IT standard of care for backup.

3-2-1

3 copies, including the original

2 types of media

1 stored offsite

The first is to be used. The second is to restore the 1st in the event it is damaged. The third are to restore the first and second in case the building burns down.

We can’t even give humans human rights. AI will have to get in line.

That is the deliberate strategy of the right. They weaponize language and use it disingenuously to obfuscate meaning and confuse debate.

Everyone else more or less tries to communicate honestly.

Like this?

Liches decay usually to skeletal levels.

But it’s a good point.

I asked Cohere (Canadian LLM/AI) what fits best:

The mythical creature that best matches the description of Jesus, who dies and returns to life while retaining his intelligence and physical form, is often associated with the concept of a “Resurrected Divine Being” rather than a specific mythical creature from folklore. However, if we look for parallels in mythology, the closest analogy might be:

The Phoenix

The Phoenix is a mythical bird that cyclically regenerates or is reborn. It dies in a burst of flames and then rises again, renewed and youthful, from its ashes. This symbolizes rebirth, immortality, and the triumph over death. While the Phoenix is not a direct theological match, its theme of death and resurrection aligns with the core aspect of Jesus’ story.

Other Considerations

1. Osiris (Egyptian Mythology): Osiris, the god of the afterlife, was murdered by Set, dismembered, and later resurrected by Isis. He becomes the lord of the underworld and a symbol of rebirth and eternal life. This parallels the idea of dying and rising again, though Osiris remains in a divine, otherworldly state.

2. Attis (Phrygian Mythology): Attis was a vegetation god who dies and is reborn annually, symbolizing the cycle of life and death. His resurrection is tied to the renewal of nature.

3. Dionysus (Greek Mythology): Dionysus, the god of wine and fertility, was dismembered and then reborn, symbolizing rebirth and transformation. His resurrection is often tied to themes of renewal and divine power.

Conclusion

While none of these mythical creatures perfectly align with the theological specifics of Jesus (who is considered divine in Christianity and whose resurrection is central to Christian doctrine), the Phoenix is the closest in terms of the symbolic theme of death and rebirth. Jesus, however, transcends these mythical parallels as a figure of religious faith, not just a mythological archetype. His resurrection is presented as a unique, divine event rather than a cyclical or mythical phenomenon.

So the solution to AI encroachment is to self-sabotage all communication? A little too scorched earth for me. Reminds of a bad variation of Inception.

The dude: but I really liked that rug. It really held the room together.

You just inspired another wikipedia rabbit hole. See you in a week!

Jesus, who came back from the dead? Like a zombie? Zombie Jesus is lord. I worship a zombie cult? I need to rethink my life.

Your mom and I both think you’re cool.

Goes both ways. We feed it shit. It feeds us shit. We feed ourselves shit. It feeds itself shit. More like and ass-to-mouth 69. Like a human-centipede + bot ouroboros.

Would

Some of us buy bulk green beans, roast at home on demand, hand grind, then make pour-over and espresso with a manual press. Then make espresso based drinks and spiced coffee on occasion. Mix of overspending, diy and slow food movement.

My coffee habits would have bankrupted me if I went to cafés. I’m not saving any money with all the doodads I bought, but my quality of life is fantastic for the price.

BRB, going to make a cortado.
