"Regulating #AI hastens the #Antichrist, says #Palantir鈥檚 Peter #Thiel
#Tech #billionaire claims in a lecture about #religion that the #devil promises #peace and #safety by strangling #technological #progress with #regulation"
Oh fuck you you fucking wackjob
But of course, he has vast power, we do not
While we struggle with terrible conflicts today, this asshole sets up the next, more horrible one
#Hello World #Introduction
I鈥檓 an artist and researcher working primarily with sound across music and art contexts. That is, I produce records, installations and play gigs. Over the last 10 years there has been a focus on sonifying data produced by surveillance tech and in general I鈥檓 interested in sound鈥檚 potential to engage with contemporary political contexts.
I鈥檓 also someone who feels conflicted about using social media - on the one hand I would happily not engage with it whatsoever but as an artist feel it鈥檚 necessary to have some visibility in these spaces. I tend to sporadically post about upcoming gigs or exhibitions and occasionally will share an article, usually about something happening in the tech space that I find particularly worrisome. In general I鈥檓 critical towards #technological solutionism and feel #tech won鈥檛 save us. However I am curious and hopeful for the potential of de-centralised platforms such as this and am extremely grateful to all the people whose energies go into developing alternatives to Big Tech and their increasingly centralised power and over-reach. Finally if you鈥檝e got this far, thanks for taking the time to read my thoughts both based in research and from the heart. I look forward to following you back. <3
