If I follow correctly, "Artificial Intelligence" is so powerful that will soon destroy humanity but you can’t tax it or impose ecological constraints because that would destroy it. Also, you need to talk to it gently.

this, I remember, also happen to Nobel economists a few years back. And, as much as it is dutiful and righteous to stick it to economists and Tories, we must also consider how this underlines the complete and utter failure of the so-called "IT revolution" over the past 30+ years.

Where did the time go where we all agreed on the fact that genocide is bad? #GenocideIsBad #genocide #israel #FreePalestine #palestine #FreeGaza #gaza #activism
Remember kids, Israel has to bomb hospitals and starve Gaza and incinerate children and shoot people waving white flags and assassinate doctors and journalists and commit daily massacres of civilians, because if it doesn't do this the region will be dominated by evil terrorists

Shitgenstein

I met a traveler from an inland state
Who said: Two vast and humming racks of steel
Stand in the cornfield. Near them, on the plain,
Half buried in weed, a broken server face lies,
Its stilled fans, its dulled and blinking lights,
Tell that its builders knew the hype well
Which once ran through these halls, now cold and still,
The hands that fed them and the minds that made:
And on the switchroom wall these words remain:
“My name is Jensen Huang, CEO of CEOs:
Look on my cloud compute, ye Mighty, and despair!”
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that great digital ruin, boundless and bare
The autumn fields stretch flat and far away.

One of the reasons I often order pizza when I eat out is that, in Italy, pizza is considered an art form. Every "pizzaiolo" has their own dough recipe, their own yeast, their own technique. No two pizzas made by the same pizzaiolo will ever be exactly alike, yet they will still carry a […]

I keep thinking about it, and I still stand by the idea that the one usable thing "AI" brings to the table is to show what little can pass as work. It is actually a fertile idea, although our economic models will trump reason as always.
