How Cloudflare uses generative AI to slow down, confuse, and waste the resources of AI Crawlers and other bots that don’t respect “no crawl” directives.
Thanks, I don’t really care for generalizing instances and didn’t really have a choice when I made my account.
But also your definition is impossibly broad as you well and I’m pretty sure not the general consensus. The video doesn’t define it as such either.
For one thing, by your definition we can have absolutely no meaningful human relationships. I can explain this more later when I have time if you don’t see what I mean
My explanation of authority wasn’t meant as a definition but rather a brief summarisation of a complex concept, Andrew does a better job actually explaining it. Like pointing out that Authority is confused with a lot of different concepts like respect or influence. Which I’m starting to suspect is happening here. meaningful human relationships are based on mutual respect. This is not authority as it is voluntary, reciprocated and revoked as soon as the other party steps over the line. This is what I believe is the basis of society and what we need to return to in order to live a truly free life. In modern society in most interactions respect has been replaced with authority. People in positions of power even use them synonymously.
sorry, assumed from combination of comment+instance.
you can totally have human relationships! you just try to base things on consent. it’s hard to see from here, because everything is so steeped in fuckery, and it’s like trying to imagine slack in a system where a thousand things are keeping the same thing under high tension, but it does tend to work when the forces of oppression briefly collapse. it’s also not a binary. you can look at the way systems function better with more autonomy, and why. this has been studied. I can talk on that at length, but that version of the topic is full of serious doorstoppers and even harder to understand in detail.
‘a paradise born in hell’ by solnit goes into how it tends to emerge during disaster response/recovery, and how centralized authoritarian responses tend to… not help so much, if at all. it’s pretty well written, highly recommend.
