Light Streaks — generative photography
A small selection of long-exposures of randomly generated IFS (aka Iterated Function Systems), a family of very oldskool primitive/trivial fractal functions, but which can produce a fairly wide variety of outcomes. Each image is the result of billions of iterations of a single particle being iteratively transformed (meaning the particle's current position is used as the input for computing its next position etc.) For each iteration & posit…
Fun new piece of information. Google search results now include this text (I think it took less than an hour), but the LLM still doesn't know what a "walowadick" is.
This gives us a bit of signal, and we'll get some more as time goes on. Some of my other pieces, like the "towards a fractal anarchism" post on dbzer0 (https://slrpnk.net/post/18413750) has shown up in LLM results, but it seems like it took several weeks or maybe months.
So I'm guessing there are some regular encoding jobs, probably no more often than once every few months. It'll be interesting to get that signal and see what happens. I'd also be surprised if there isn't some kind of prioritization based on hits, but, again, we'll see what signal we get.

So many predictions saying how AI and crypto will converge this year, because agents need to pay.
I look forward to it. Merging a famous fractal scam industry (as meticulously documented by @…) with a technology that still haven't taken even a stab at solving prompt injection (as meticulously documented by @…
