Yesterday, I was reading Shklovsky and stumbled upon this unexpectedly chilling short text. I translated it for you (although I just googled that the book itself *is* available in English, if you decide to read it from start to finish).

I’m a fan of Gothic literature and Penny Dreadfuls. I sometimes see myself as Frankenstein’s monster, and I think Frankenstein is very relevant to ethical conversations about AI. The specifics of that are too personal for me to go into at the moment; however, I would say there is something especially abhorrent about creating life just for it to suffer or creating life, calling it monstrous, and disregarding it. The original Frankenstein story started with an epigraph from John Milton’s “Paradise Lost,” which is especially relevant today. My mother is a narcissist and admitted that I was allowed to be born to satisfy her narcissism. So, there is something that disturbs me about something being created in the image and glorification of its creator. While I have a reputation for being a narcissist, I have nothing on my mother.

Although I am known as a vampire, vampiric archetypes and tropes tie more into existential themes and nihilistic views. If people want insight into who I am as a person, why I behave the way that I do, and my philosophies, I recommend:

The Picture of Dorian Gray: An Annotated, Uncensored Edition
The Black Cat

The older I get, the more blunted my antisocial and hedonistic edge becomes. Humanity is a social species where we evolved to be cooperative, so selfish hedonism leads to perdition and self-destruction. The more I come face to face with what true evil looks like, the less I idealize it, I suppose.
