Creepy as fuck. I had no idea about this phenomenon.

(The rise of the CPU God.)

..It points to a deeper crisis in how reality is being interpreted, especially by those immersed in online spaces where affirmation is fast, shallow and often unmoored from fact.

When someone says they 'input a secret code', or something of the like, into ChatGPT and it 'revealed itself as God', as several do in this video, what you’re likely seeing imo, is a blend of a desire for meaning or significance in a world that feels increasingly unstable, low digital literacy and/or actual human intellect, where the ability to distinguish simulation from sentience just hasn’t been developed, or understood/recognised, and algorithmic narcissism, where people start mistaking what the machine reflects back (often based on them) as some kind of divine message...and in some cases, perhaps a bit of online performance art or delusion that spirals into genuine belief. Sad really.

The virtual world is now a primary space of identity formation, especially for many Gen Z users, often more so than family, school, college/uni, church or even real life friendships. That constant immersion in filtered, hyper-optimized, feedback-driven systems, think TikTok, Instagram, and yes, ChatGPT and the like, can displace their grip on what’s real, especially if real life feels somewhat less than mediocre, unrewarding, etc. Again, a sad state of affairs...

These environments are shaping cognitive habits, shortening attention spans, lowering thresholds for boredom, and in some cases encouraging a kind of digital animism, seeing life where there is none, divinity where there is only code.

If the user is already fractured or desperate for connection, they may well start seeing what they want to see = God, a friend, a mind, even a path to immortality...A network religion.

Good analysis. I try to keep up with the technological advances, but the social developments are increasingly beyond me.

We always liked the Nigel Olsson one when we were kids.

We loved his Bri-ish accent. There’s another one that I can’t find where he is talking.

That’s me Nigel Olsson on the Mattel Synsonics.

This is one of my favourite record covers from my childhood. It seemed like perfection and still does. It reminds me of the cover of Fleetwood Mac’s “Rumours” or countrawiseabout more like.

Produced by George Harrison and Todd Rundgren, full of lush multi-tracked "Abbey Road" era goodness. Ironically the band didnt like getting saddled with that approach since they couldnt reproduce live as a 4 piece.

Ha!, got this on DVD when it first came out. Matt Berry, what a talent, in all his ventures. I think I pretty much have all his stuff, and ditto with his collaborators, Noel Fielding, Matthew Holness, Julian Barratt, Richard Ayoade, etc....Not watched Garth Marenghi's Darkplace, in a while, so I think I will dig that one out in the next few days...

Snuff Box, is very dark and very funny, if you've not seen it Alec.
