AI is not "a neutral technology" because every single one of these three dimensions skews its impact towards far right goals:
- the underlying tech reproduces bias
- the form factor of it sidelines expertise
- the way it's productized breaks down critical thinking and labor power
@wolven.blacksky.appAuthoritarians love "Gen AI" because it
- Sounds confident even when factually wrong
- Broadly conforms to & reproduces their biases, off the shelf
- Lets them create bespoke realities (text, audio, moving & still image) which agree w/ their biases
- Degrades trust in knowledge/evidence/expertise…
