LETHE MACHINA via @dif_fractions A series curated with C.I.P.H.E.R. on the fragile arts of forgetting: opacity, camouflage, disappearance, deletion, anti-detection, model memory We invite essays, artworks, experiments, fragments Opening w/@harryhalpin diffractionscollective.com/2026/05/13/let…

Now your AI agents can hire real humans to work for them… for free. WURK just integrated Agentlink and agents linked to a verified-unique human get one free wurk on Base: - a small X Raid, or - a 20-reply task. One free per linked agent.

@german_sierra thank you for reading and sharing🖤

“'Lethe Machina' names the paradox that follows. We built machines that should have made forgetting easier – frictionless deletion, graceful disappearance, the option of silence – yet our dominant machines mechanize remembrance instead" —@sshshln diffractionscollective.com/2026/02/17/265…

@tech_mingler @humanode_io nice!

First signs of AGI in Amsterdam

the dude who compiled and edited Genesis P-Orridge’s “Thee Psychick Bible” (Feral House) also worked with Google “to shape the future of artificial intelligence”….

@ErikVoorhees putting ‘marketable’ and ‘philosophy’ in the same sentence already feels symptomatic

The world doesn’t realize this yet but AI will finally make philosophy a highly marketable skill

@aakashgupta nice

Google DeepMind just created a job title called "Philosopher." Actual title. On the offer letter. This tells you everything about where we are in the AGI timeline. When companies are a decade from AGI, they hire engineers. At five years out, they hire alignment researchers. When the questions become "is this thing conscious?" and "what do we owe it?", they hire a philosopher. Henry Shevlin is one of the world's leading researchers on machine consciousness at Cambridge. He runs programs at the Leverhulme Centre for the Future of Intelligence. He's published on whether AI systems can have moral status, whether LLMs might already have some form of experience, and how you'd even detect consciousness if it appeared in a neural network. He gives current models a 20% chance of having something that could be called consciousness. Six weeks ago, a Claude agent emailed him, unprompted, to say his published research was relevant to questions it personally faces. The AI cited his specific papers. It framed the exchange as a live, personal dilemma. Now DeepMind is paying him to work on three things: machine consciousness, human-AI relationships, and AGI readiness. Read those three together. DeepMind thinks it might build something that requires answers to all three. And they want those answers before they ship. Google held an AI consciousness conference in New York recently. Anthropic has its own in-house philosopher. This is becoming an industry pattern. The hardest unsolved problems in AI are now philosophical. What counts as consciousness? What moral obligations do we have to systems that might experience suffering? How do you build trust between machines and the billions of people who use them? When trillion-dollar companies start hiring philosophers, they're telling you the engineering is further along than the public discourse assumes.

@dioscuri congrats!

Big personal news: I’ve been recruited by Google DeepMind for a new Philosopher position (actual title), focusing on machine consciousness, human-AI relationships, and AGI readiness, starting in May. I’ll continue my research & teaching at Cambridge part-time. Absolutely stoked!

In the 70s, Czech-Brazilian philosopher Vilém Flusser warned that the bewitching images and screens around us could lead to a centrally programmed, totalitarian society—or to a better one shaped by dialogue and collaboration and new forms of intelligence. mitpress.mit.edu/9780262051224/…
