“How Not to Use AI (Sonnet 2651-2652) Every artist has a central art, an art that defines their life, keep that art pure and human, till the day you die. The medium may change with time, but the material must be human. I repeat, AI may assist humanity, but not substitute humanity. Humans are not much bright to begin with, with all our jungle biases and prejudices, and leaning heavily on generative ai, would only turn society into meatmarket. AI is not the problem, mindlessness is, in fact, it's stupid not to make use of a marvelous new instrument out of rigidity, but you must draw a clear line between human originality and ai assistance. For example, I literally cannot remember when was the last time I picked up a physical pen, as all my books are written on a computer. And at some point, I might even consider using AI for minor bookcover edits, not generate the cover mark you, but strictly for tweaks of the images. I won't even let your little bards and byrons anywhere near my writing, let alone algorithms. I am Naskar, the canon is Naskar, it'll remain Naskar, till the universe collapses and the next one begins.”

“Normalizing Case Specific AI Use (Naskaristana 2663-2666) Don't waste your time on the dilemma of, to use or not to use ai, ask instead, how can you use ai in your particular field, without compromising your integrity! It's not about avoiding ai, it's about delegating menial tasks to ai - fire, steam, electricity, internet, ai, these are all tools, sooner or later you will adopt it, and this comes from a person whose literature was heisted without consent to train algorithms, among many other living writers. Sure, unlike electricity and internet, the origin of gen-ai is downright dubious, so much so that even bombing these ai companies would not be unjustified, just like bombing america would be a great humanitarian initiative, but that won't solve the exploitation problem in the long run - so we'd have to find meaningful alternatives to deal with such contraptions of heinous origins, instead of just freaking out, whether it's algorithm or america. AI slop is still slop, American history is still a crimescene, therefore we have to deslopify ai, and disinfect america of its foundational knack for terrorism. Also, one more thing, ai is a radically new territory, even the makers of ai don't know what they're doing, so don't expect to figure out everything overnight, don't be too hard on yourself pressured by hypocrites; the idea is not to outsource your ideas, whether to ai or to hypocritical primates, so take your time, and figure out your own ethics of ai in case specific context. Use ai to be more meaningful than productive - for example, bring inspiring figures to life, and make them have discourse with each other, but always maintain their original texts. Or like I recently (March, 2026) used ai to produce a few audio materials, based on some of the sonnets, these tracks sound like music but they are not, even though the lyrics are mine, it's not music until I pick up the guitar and sing myself, or some real musician does; I see these ai audio tracks as accessibility extensions - in fact, accessibility could be the greatest boon of ai. The canon is the art, the audios are just more courier, both the ai tracks and my own voice recordings. Main point is this: music without musician is not music, poetry without poet is not poetry, art without artist is not art, simulation without experience is delusion. You can 3d print furniture, but you cannot 3d print art - and alas, only a true artist can know what this means!”

“Are Human, Support Human (Sonnet 2520) AI fakes will rise, AI fakes will fall, and you can never tell them apart, but one thing these vermin must be petrified of, is to be exposed - never tolerate AI slop as normal, just like you no longer tolerate the nazis as normal. To nourish creativity you must be intolerant of fakes, for humanity to flourish you must be intolerant of prejudice. Those who make AI fakes and those who knowingly consume them are equally garbage, those who howl prejudice and those who stay silent are equally savage. Some century when AI does become self aware, then we might have to reconsider our ethics, until then preserve human art at all cost, and banish every last AI slop in the bin.”

“I have zero tolerance for the use of AI in any aspect of human creative endeavor. We can make a separate space for AI art, but AI trash passed as human art, is an abomination of creativity - for our imperfections bear the keynote of truth. Art is a testament to human struggle - remove the human, and it's art no more. Either you are an artist or you use AI, you cannot do both.”

“Age of AI (The Sonnet) Welcome to the age of AI, where algorithms grow bigger, and minds get smaller, where freedom is the new prison, character retreats as cave dweller. Welcome to the age of AI, where deceit is the new creativity, where hate is a human right, malinformation is a legal industry. Welcome to the age of AI, where algorithms are still nonsentient, but so are the people that use them, mindlessness is trend of the new sapiens. Welcome to the age of AI, where global goals are still a dream, only more distant. Prove me wrong - I beg of you - Stand up and behave, a proper Sapiens!”

“Naskar Constitution of GenAI (Sonnet) At times I'm hard on AI, at times I'm lenient, I have just one law on AI, keep the human at the center, and be transparent. Use AI to empower life, don't abuse AI to ruin life. AI must orbit humanity, not turn humanity into a lie. Don't make the same mistake with AI as organized religion did, by destroying human agency. Once out, AI is here to stay, but there are meaningful ways to use AI instead of cheap forgery. AI may assist, when the human awakens; machine may speak, what the mind has written. After I'm gone, you're welcome to clone my image and voice, but never put words in my mouth that I've never written.”

“Labor of AI (The Sonnet) Asking AI to help you write, is not writing. Asking AI to tune your voice, is not singing. Asking AI to help you paint, is not painting. Asking AI to help you code, is not coding. Asking AI to help you create, is not creativity. Asking AI to build your dream, is not dreaming. Asking AI to narrate books, is not storytelling. AI oughta do manual labor, so humans can do the creating.”

“Certain American Progressives and British Fabian Socialists are very lucky that Adolf Hitler was a plagiarist, and that he did not cite their work on eugenics when writing Mein Kampf. Otherwise, history would remember them differently.”

“To the extent that Catholicism contains any good ideas, they all come from the covert Mithraic and Platonic pagan elements of the religion. The Protestants got rid of the pagan elements and returned Christianity to a type of Judaism. In the absence of pagan elements, Christianity was never anything other than Messianic Judaism based on Jesus Christ as the Jewish Messiah, so the Messianic Jews are unquestionably the purest Christians in the world. Protestants are Jews who haven’t realised they’re Jews and Catholics are pagans who haven’t realised they’re pagans.”

“Vagabond Poet (Sonnet 1044) No matter how much they plagiarize my work, I won't say a word to condemn. No matter how much they monetize solar energy, you never hear the sun complain! It's okay that limited minds got to care about such matter. What does the ocean care about a few buckets of stolen water! I am infinite, I am unbound - Come, steal all I've got, strip me of all my legacy! I started out as a vagabond, I'll gladly perish in vagabondcy.”

“In the wake of the generative content era, using AI to generate content for clients may seem convenient, but it is not a sustainable long-term strategy. Clients can easily access similar AI tools themselves. Instead, focus on leveraging artificial intelligence to enhance your creativity, streamline processes, and provide personalized value to your clients. With this, you are several yards ahead of the packs out there and your result will be massive.”

“As a convinced atheist, I ought to agree with Voltaire that Judaism is not just one more religion, but in its way the root of religious evil. Without the stern, joyless rabbis and their 613 dour prohibitions, we might have avoided the whole nightmare of the Old Testament, and the brutal, crude wrenching of that into prophecy-derived Christianity, and the later plagiarism and mutation of Judaism and Christianity into the various rival forms of Islam. Much of the time, I do concur with Voltaire, but not without acknowledging that Judaism is dialectical. There is, after all, a specifically Jewish version of the eighteenth-century Enlightenment, with a specifically Jewish name—the Haskalah—for itself. The term derives from the word for 'mind' or 'intellect,' and it is naturally associated with ethics rather than rituals, life rather than prohibitions, and assimilation over 'exile' or 'return.' It's everlastingly linked to the name of the great German teacher Moses Mendelssohn, one of those conspicuous Jewish hunchbacks who so upset and embarrassed Isaiah Berlin. (The other way to upset or embarrass Berlin, I found, was to mention that he himself was a cousin of Menachem Schneerson, the 'messianic' Lubavitcher rebbe.) However, even pre-enlightenment Judaism forces its adherents to study and think, it reluctantly teaches them what others think, and it may even teach them how to think also.”
