it is really withering to go from the murder of George Floyd + the uprisings of '20 to the apathy toward Kohen Wiley's murder in '26 - I guess that is the point of white supremacy, to wither our values and what u know is right, what u are willing to fight for, wither it into dust

I am horribly disappointed by how American physicists have embraced the anti-intellectualism & anti-humanism inherent to the notion that people can simply be replaced by an algorithm built through theft and labor exploitation and it seems no lessons have been learned from the Oppenheimer era at all

It is not in fact our generation’s job to be the last group of physicists who know how to do things, you fucking dodos. We don’t just hire students to make our research go. We hire them to pass on knowledge and secure humanity’s ancestral inheritance.

More broadly I’ve heard a variety of comments from physicists (not the blogger) that are along the lines of: “we don’t even need students anymore” and “what’s the point of hiring students anymore” and it’s really hard not to reply “it’s our job to train the next generation you stupid, selfish fuck”

The epistemic double standard is clear: white men are hailed as heroes for taking up this tool that is built through thieving (It’s never just trained on your voice! Anthropic, Claude’s maker, stole my book and many others!) & Black people are under suspicion of not being capable of doing without it
