also "reacting" when we think we are responding since our own actions are influenced by the technicity of language and the structure of the unconscious etc. But humans have an inner experience of knowing and reacting, whereas a trebuchet or an LLM doesn't. The onus is to prove AI can have an

Happy to share that my paper "On the individuation of complex computational models: Gilbert Simondon and the technicity of AI" is now available on AI & Society. Thanks to @ludovico-rella.bsky.social and @fabio-iapaolo.bsky.social for putting together this special issue!

Oh, i might need some because i'm living off of vibes more than actual technicity

This inability to separate LLM satisfactory performance from actual cognition mostly stems from a refusal to engage with the long Leroi-Gourhan > Derrida > Stiegler tradition that has been saying for almost 70 years that language is a type of ahuman technicity we co-evolved along.
When people say the LLMs don't think they don't mean that their thought is primitive, that their thought is not good enough, that their thought is not as good as a human's: They mean it's a completely different thing that has no awareness, self or otherwise. It's a word generator with context input.

How do you feel about integrating Black cultural theory and Simondon’s concept of technicity?

Still reading this, but got to say I really enjoyed "Genealogies Of Trans Technicity" by @hilmalatino.bsky.social which put a lot of things together in a way that strongly resonated with me.

Skepticism about historicity as validity, a rebuttal of rebuttal, the concept of technicity. Fab.

The human is fundamentally a prosthetic creature that has coevolved with various forms of technicity and materiality, forms that are radically 'not-human' and yet have nevertheless made the human what it is. (For Derrida, this includes the most fundamental prostheticity of all: language.)

Gilbert Simondon (1924–1989) is too under-read and mostly misunderstood, even by French scholars and philosophers. He talks about technicity, which is a critique of alienation that doesn’t rely on humanist essentialism. Fascinating stuff that many of you would appreciate looking into.

"Everything is functioning. That is precisely what is awesome, that everything functions, that the functioning propels everything more and more toward further functioning, and that technicity increasingly dislodges man and uproots him from the earth".

this is a path that kind of validates the pop theory of 'assortative mating is a factor of the surge in ND rates'. Rise of technicity in every facet of life >> fellas who would have been bachelor track (at best) in previous eras are now marriage material >> voilà, your 6yo is a Rubiks cube obsessive

I could technicity work it in as something from S9. Little assistant drone to help them out. just for fun to commemorate my time with both games

Omg the motion blur.... It feels so organic, the animation itself, in terms of technicity, is already nsfw 👀🙏🫶🤍 Can't wait to see the final scene !
