I look at how a Modernist lens creates exploitation of neighbours in a critical experiment with Claude AI, with summary detail by NotebookLM.

@microglyphics I am noting quite of us pointing at the same thing from different directions. Very nicely written.
@knowprose There are a handful of us scattered around the globe. 😉

@microglyphics Isles of Coherence, I would like to think. :)

I'm trying to refer to you and someone else into an entry I'm doing now for KnowProSE.com, along with a few other things.

Glad to meet you. :)

@knowprose Nicely. I'll take a look.
@microglyphics I'll mention you and Grimm when I pull it together, no reason to poll. But by all means, take a look at the site. lol
@knowprose I see your Mastodon masthead is a PK Dick quote. I am creating an essay around his Man in a High Castle as a commentary on portable moral ontologies. We'll see where it fits into my schedule.

@microglyphics Yes, yes it is. He's a great author and I found it applicable when I used it, and it stands quite well.

Portable moral ontologies. Yes.
