18 track album

You could get a robot limb for your blown-off limb

Later on the same technology could automate your gig, as awesome as it is

Wait, it gets awful: you could split a atom willy-nilly

If it’s energy that can be used for killing, then it will be

It’s not about a better knife, it’s chemistry and genocide

And medicine for tempering the heck in a projector light

Landmines, Agent Orange, leaded gas, cigarettes

Cameras in your favorite corners, plastic in the wilderness

We can not be trusted with the stuff that we come up with

The machinery could eat us, we just really love our buttons, um

Technology, focus on the other shit

3D-printed body parts, dehydrated onion dip

You can buy a Jet Ski from a cell phone on a jumbo jet

T-E-C-H-N-O-L-O-G-Y, it’s the ultimate

the subject matter of Aesop Rock’s latest album felt relevant to our instance’s interests

    If it’s out of the bag then it’s out of the bag

        …It’s what the album is about. Once the cat is out of the bag, it’s out of the bag. “And that is a powerful cat”

          Sure, that is a line from one of the choruses. It does not seem to be the focus of the album. Discussions of song meanings aside, just to be clear about what is going on here:

          • you are in the wrong place if you’re here to ideate about what technology can do without considering the consequences
          • you are in the wrong place to be posting AI generated content without good justification

            I’ll keep replying until the boss’s minions get tired of popping out behind him saying “yeah, what he said!” or I’m banned. Disproportionate anger begets disproportionate apologies

        Yeah because generative imaging is dumb

            I thought people would find it funny but I guess it just offended everyone which I’ve already apologized for. Downvote away. I’m not gonna bother defending myself further since it’s pretty clear people want me to leave. See ya later maybe (on a different community)

              you drifted in out of nowhere, made a completely zero-effort thing your first post with literally no useful contribution of your own, and now appear to be going “waaaaaaagh why don’t you like me” about the consequences

              pro-tip: don’t

                    I didn’t start a fight, I posted a joke about an album I like and was dogpiled with toxicity

                    It’s not that serious. Everyone in this awful instance desperately needs a chill pill lmao
