Ahh ok! Thanks for the explanation.

I have no idea why my comment is seen as being "sus" or why my choice of words would trigger anyone.

But meh, Lemmy being Lemmy, I guess.

Haha thats a funny thing, I strongly hope to see you around in a month!

Thanks. If I die, I'll still be sure to shitpost from wherever I am. I promise!

Thank you. I just finished up researching it since I didn't now what it was. And I never heard of the project before, so very cool little thought experiment!

Caution: Don't put in your date of death. I did. I typed in "The date of <UniveralMonk's> death is" and then took the gibberish word that was after that and put into ai to turn it into a date using numbers of alphabet, etc.

My death is set for May 10, 2025.

I was very unhappy with this knowledge. Then realized that every possible variation of the wrong date (include every single date in the world ever) would be listed as well as a correct one. So whew! (I hope!)

But to be fair, I don't really pay attention to the art or the abstract. It's the article that I read. So all good.

Your choice of words may trigger some people around here…

Can you explain what you mean by that?

I guess I'm out of the loop. Can you explain what that site is? Cuz I had a look around and still didn't know the purpose.

I thought the article was pretty decent. I wouldn't call it "slop." I didn't write it so I don't have any feedback on if it's ai or not.

Oh good catch!

Agreed. Honestly, it didn't even really need a pic.

Yep! That's why projects like this are so essential.

Brah, think of it as millions of data-drenched pages, packed with high-voltage scholarly juice, swirl through the wires like ghost smoke, and then vanishing into the hidden vaults of a shadow library buried deep in the darkweb. A digital rebel bunker, ducking the sweaty claws of greedy suits who’d sell knowledge by the ounce if they could!

OR just some random AI image the author of the piece picked? I don't know.

Free flow of knowledge is absolutely essential. Of all the things that should be accessible knowledge and the opportunity for every person to realize their full potential should be a must.

I totally agree. I often think about self-taught scientists like Michael Faraday or Mary Anning and what they’d say about how hard it is to access knowledge today, even with all the tech we have. Back in the 1800s, they had to hunt down books, write letters to experts, and dig through whatever scraps of info they could find. Now we’ve got the internet, but somehow it’s still locked behind paywalls and profiteers trying to gatekeep learning.
