"generative AI" puts the focus in the wrong place. what I think is actually the new superpower is * translation * between languages, but also between mediums. sketch <> figma design <> code <> image also, they do an inverted form of lossy compression: input + priors = input inflated with understanding of the world we're so focused on changing the input, but swapping out the priors is interesting as well what happens when we intentionally replace the priors with a different mindset / a different culture? can we trick ourselves into a rubber hand illusion, but for experiencing the world as some… Related

A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one
sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at
korrents.com .
Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said.
The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in
korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who
else holds it.
Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public
statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.

About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they
do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in
this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the
serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to
quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter,
especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked
article and a belief on korrents.com
are left in their original language.
