I'm not in the habit of reading Papal encyclicals, but this one seems like a must read:

https://www.vatican.va/content/leo-xiv/en/encyclicals/documents/20260515-magnifica-humanitas.html

I'm still early in wading through this, but I appreciate its emphasis on the socio-politcal dangers of power concentrated in the hands of the #tech #oligarchs . I see some critique of #transhumanist ideologies too.

Great. Just great. With the orange guy in charge again, I'm sure this is fine.

@electricarchaeo@scholar.social you owe me nothing!

Except this cider of which you often speak, that would be nice.

I'm looking to publish a longish (8000 word) essay that's heavily referenced but more conversational in tone.

It's about #archaeology and #ai (of the LLM variety, I know, #barf).

Any suggested venues?

@electricarchaeo@scholar.social Sounds almost medieval. Almost, but also like the ideas in the Ronin Institute (before they ran into huge organizational problems).

The US BLM is considering revoking the 10-mile buffer preventing mining/drilling around Chaco Canyon, a place of huge significance for Indigenous peoples and for #archaeology

@tully I wonder if we can also ask those bots to help us with some Python coding issue? Might as well burn those tokens on something potentially useful.
