LLMs are a sick twist on Hegel's master-slave dialectic by removing consciousness from the slave. The original master-slave relation contains development because the slave develops and eventually reverses the relation. Rather, the human is just becoming increasingly passive and removed from the mediating process. The product of the slave's activity creates the appearance of greater capability while the underlying capacity atrophies.

If your thinking occurs through an external intelligence you treat as an instrument, in what sense are you still the master of your own thinking?

AI will either become the mechanism of stagnation or the realisation of our own need to think.

AI is not a conscious program. It's a simulacrum of thought

Words are merely the surface of thought. At best they are a hologram. At worst they are a mere facade.

History has already ended, the process of liberalization of all societies is simply the remnants of Jena manifesting themselves everywhere they go. The West will never progress past its democratic liberal society, it can only regress or stagnate. In a sense, man becomes animal, he ceases to desire the desire of others, but instead desires objects. The constant deterritorialization of capitalism into new sectors to commodify only translates this primal urge: we only seek to consume, and to be able to consume.


Yet, some resist. Some still seek greatness. And in doing so, they change this world in their own image. LLMs are a tool created by the last men who resist this stagnation. They come from the belly of the beast, the desire for glory. The slave's desire for recognition was not a desire for glory, it was a desire to be free and live rationally. Yet, now that the universal state has manifested itself, some desire glory. Through this, their everlasting pursuit has manifested in tools capable of harm beyond our wildest fantasies. Once again, the dialectic of enlightenment turns against us and creates monstrosities, as it can only rationalize from a faulty premise.

Nonetheless, and it is here that we can witness how far our society has progressed, the conflict for greatness comes through the form of technological improvement. The fight to death has ceased to be the norm. Instead, ambitious men will their fantasies through technological firms. The pursuit of capitalist achievements has become the new fight. The LLMs are not slaves, they are the tools by which the last men seek to transcend this world, yet, they are fundamentally bound to satisfying the desires of the animals which surrounds them.
