Tracking AI
6ix26
I realize that I've been rather too prideful in my attitudes toward 'Artificial Intelligence' ('AI' hereafter, with the usual caveats about 'Artificial' and 'Intelligence'), preferring to consider my own compositional and organizational procedures and abilities more suitable than reliance on something outside of my own Mind and accumulated resources and information skills. I prefer to thin of myself as one who knows, and finds, and synthesizes, and ...writes (the lattermost in the yellow pad medium, and in html for public/distributed presentation, although to no noticeable audience of interlocutors).
There's a Convivium post from May 2022 Computers and Cyborgs that sets a baseline, and The AI Project (January 2023) soon after I started to track AI in late 2022, as I encountered novel and eloquent and bellwethery material. There's a page of YouTube videos from early 2023 that still have salience 3 1/2 years later.
Here's a chronological presentation of my efforts to collect AI materials that seemed salient:
begun December 2022, continued to December 2024 (a single page, vastly too long, and mostly without dates) ** January 2025-May 2025I then decided to accumulate links month by month:
June 2025 ** July 2025 ** August 2025 ** September 2025 ** October 2025 ** November 2025 ** December 2025 January 2026 ** February 2026 ** March 2026 ** April 2026 ** May 2026 ** June 2026 ** July 2026 ** August 2026 ** September 2026 **
