The entire cultural output of humanity is being fed into AI. Large Language Models are ingesting not only books, articles, and blogs in their entirety, but also the content of our private written and spoken conversations. LLMs are boiling lakes and burning down forests to generate texts based on statistical mediocrity, which we are supposed to worship as the beginning of a great new gilded age.

This is where Reverse Contradictionary comes into play — a collaborative effort by critical media titans Vuk Ćosić, IOCOSE and Vladan Joler. Their new “Dictionary of New Worlds” presents selected confrontational neologisms that, with acute insight and subtle provocation, challenge and overturn the predatory, algorithmic logic embedded in statistical language.

With a preface by Yes Men and a terrifying blurb by real Slavoj Žižek.
