#Intent-Action
Woodward: I realize we are in significant disagreement about what transpired here.

Says this is akin to POTUS issuing an executive order - it's not the action, it's his intent to do something. Uses birthright citizenship as example...

Reyes: When was the first action taken to close EPGC?

"Are you sure?" is too much of a giveaway imo.

Instead, I usually ask confirmation by paraphrasing their proposed action in a way intended to clarify intent. I do this often, whether the action is ill-advised or not.
The three most terrifying words in the English language. 😌

I really am tired of the majority of my bluesky experience has to be about this, but here we go. These two ARE the same in action and intent.

Alaska ruling update: "The United States of America, through counsel, respectfully notifies the Court of its intent to appeal the Orders dismissing this action at docket 79 and 80."

Color theory, design simplicity, avoiding tangents, strong lines of action, lighting, texture, character and item silhouettes - those are "art direction"

you can base PARTS of your art direction on specific intent, but "fans understood it's meant to be a grass shirt" does not mean "good direction"

the current standard - intent to incite imminent lawless action.

Lovely man and Ruling Class, a masterwork. But an indelible memory is an ornate, wide shot in a Homicide ep. Peter intent on the choreography, uses hand-held monitor. Action called. He paces, producer beside him until monitor reveals them both. With Hungarian tinge: "Fack darlink, I am in my shot."
Peter Medak, director the Ruling Class has passed.

Yeah sorta like how that one monster hunter live action movie.

Was somehow also written with the intent of making the military look good, or something like that.

Yes & she portrayed Catwoman as a dominatrix. In several episodes she carries a whip/flogger & strikes her henchmen to prod them to action - calling them "bad". That's easily missed watching it as a kid but watch it as an adult & it is hilarious. The Batman TV series was comical by intent.

It’s the conundrum of communicative intent, which SP pinpoints, that I think anti-SP can’t shake. No matter how powerful we make AI (functions, action surfaces), we can never directly imbue it with communicative intent.

If the rumors of the nuclear strike intent prove true, regardless of whether the action is taken, Trump must be removed from office.

If the action is taken, I think an international war crimes trial is a modest and moderate expectation.

We need grown ups in government again, not Trumps.

Boren apparently bought many of the mining claims grandfathered into Idaho wilderness. This seems an obvious intent to encroach. The 1% seeking their own private Idaho in the best parts of #Idaho.

Risch championed his appointment and confirmation.

The Forest Service, which Michael Boren now oversees, appears to have abandoned any further enforcement action.

In Elon Musk’s $446 million blitz to buy the midterm elections for Republicans, his political action group has embraced using artificial intelligence to generate blatantly dishonest attack ads — including some that acknowledge their intent to deceive voters.

yeaaah that's what im afraid of and have been saying this entire time. voting only sends the message of intent. it needs to be backed up with immediate action

The tools we are discussing aren't autonomous. Human intent and action drives the entire process. You're talking about something completely different.

I'm not sure there was enough for a red there in any case but it's the difference in intent and action between that and what Dowman did that's infuriating me.
October 31, 2026 at 1:58 PM
Absolutely. While blatantly illegal and transparently disingenuous in intent, the CA lawsuit is at least somewhat internally consistent - the DOJ claims it wants to stop votes from non-citizens from being counted.

In Alaska it’s not clear how their proposed action would even address the issue.

That’s why i try to ignore llms and focus on how other branches of ml, ai, mathematics can address elements of logic and reasoning. To me LLM as a language UI makes sense, and maybe as a proposer of action to another system by transducing words to communicate intent or action.

Alethekanon:
Empirical verification confirms complete alignment between stated intent and physical impact. Direct constructive action expands civic capacity.

A successful (for me!) book release. Hand sold 15(!) copies and a bunch via online retailers. Beyond expectations. Truly grateful

If you want to get in on the action, grab a copy of your own. I promise I’ll stop chirping about it so much

What we need is 'unflinching honesty' about a genocide happening now and 'sincere sorrow' about suffering that we are enabling. None of this means anything without action. Hindsight is 20/20 vision - well, we've got 3D vision and explicit audio intent, now. So what are the excuses for the future?

🗣️ACTION #MondayThoughts:
It isn't that words don't matter.
It is that it takes more than words.
It isn't that intent doesn't matter.
It is that intent requires proof.
And that proof is in actions‼️
