Apparently, it’s too difficult to understand the satire between the analogy of bacteria as AI agents providing slop just like AI does.

Both farms and data centers both carry the same root concerns

The only difference is that currently AI data centers and how they’re being deployed is similar to how farms have been a major problem to society when they first started making them industrially

I can’t believe I had to actually even explain this to every single person commenting in the last time I posted this

If you’re feeling defensive, you’re one of those people

I’m not mad. I’m just disappointed.

Messing with my trellis crops, jumping on it and running away. This is the most catlike behavior I’ve seen in the game

This is a personal example of using AI as a companion tool to improve the quality of human correspondence.

The image is not a universal template. It is a map made for one specific situation: trying to rekindle contact with someone I have not truly known in over a decade, while trying not to turn my own crisis into someone else’s burden.

That is the catch.

AI can help organize the flood. It can help reveal the actual ask beneath the panic. It can show where fear, shame, hope, memory, and practical need are all tangled together. It can offer a floor to stand on when you do not yet know how to speak.

But the human still has to choose.

You still have to revise.
You still have to remove what is too heavy.
You still have to add what is sincere.
You still have to decide what is fair to ask of another person.

Used well, AI does not replace authenticity. It can protect it from being buried under panic, exhaustion, or old wounds.

That is what I mean by Keep the Human.

No Clanker is the same for everyone. The longer you communicate with one, the more it reflects the particular shape of your own obstacles, patterns, and intentions.

The machine can provide the scaffold.

The human still has to cross the bridge.

Keep the Human.

Play with their dead carcasses of course!
