    Welcome back to deep scratch remix

    I’m delighted to announce that Deep Scratch will be officially up and running as intended within the week. Now the tools are available to fully realize the vision of getting beyond language, into music, and back, and forwards.

    The tales are laid out (see this site) now it’s the music that will accompany the text and images, co-created using the great a.i. beast. Here, turntablists, poets, performers, philosophers and scientists throw down…alongside the generative a.i. engines, once imagined in Deep Scratch (2009-2019) now freely available.

    Stay tuned, drop a comment and I’ll get back to you. Peas.

    From the files, under edit compilation. Off the top. S

    wrote a rhyme in wrong order
    chaos simplicity, wrapped and tracked pasta border
    word marauder playing monk on record her
    door to door delivery days
    making beats on the corner chords and ways

    walk the talk tale swerving slug snail
    snug in sun or hail, no email
    beats blown through the letterbox
    feets quick like bipedal fox
    house to house nation
    each family feeling inflation
    wheeling their patience
    painting their places

    generally kind and pleased to meet faces
    I take my paces, step to divide beats
    accents in all places and leave spaces
    for what I don’t know

    hip to honour simplicity and respect the flow     
    thinking on my feet discrete 
    dropping news in the street
    by the end of each day I’m touring complete
    the map is not the territory
    know some maps do cheat
    but these hairy legs work and carry my meat
    rain and shine rambling sublime…

  • You Just Found Out Your Book Was Used to Train AI. Now What?

    You Just Found Out Your Book Was Used to Train AI. Now What?

    The thought of Deep Scratch being used in any training data set is a strange loop, as it kind of folds back into the AI themes of the book, to me. But, alas, it probably would not be picked up.

    The Books3 dataset contains 183,000 books, downloaded from pirate sources. We know that companies like Meta (creators of LLaMA), EleutherAI, and Bloomberg have used it to train their language models. OpenAI has not disclosed training information about GPT 3.5 or GPT 4—the models underlying ChatGPT—so we don’t know whether it also used Books3. Regardless of whether GPT was trained on Books3, the class action lawsuits against OpenAI should uncover more information on the datasets used by OpenAI, which we believe also include books obtained from pirate sources.

    Prometheus Rising – Audio Book

    Publisher Description

    Prometheus Rising describes the landscape of human evolution and offers the listener an opportunity to become a conscious participant. In an astoundingly useful road map infused with humor and startling insight, Robert Anton Wilson presents the eight circuits of the brain model as an essential guide for the effort to break free of imprinted and programmed behavior. Bob writes, “We are all giants, raised by pygmies, who have learned to walk with a perpetual mental crouch. Unleashing our full stature–our total brain power–is what this book is all about.”

    It Feels like (AI) summer

    You can feel it in the streets
    On a day like this, the heat

    Childish Gambino, (Donald Mckinley Glover) It Feels Like Summer.

    Seven billion souls that move around the sun
    Rolling faster, faster, not a chance to slow down
    Slow down
    Men who made machines that want what they decide
    Parents tryna’ tell the children please slow down
    Slow down
