the reason “AI will create so much abundance we will have a utopian society” rhetoric falls so flat is that the people building it will never, ever share their bounty unless it is taken from them and we all know it

Also, if the argument is based on research suggesting that writing might be a limited tool for developing thinking (though I don’t think it convincingly supports his thesis), where is the research supporting the claim that conversation develops thinking better? Phaedrus is not data.

Ive been saying for a while now, that the fear and disgust of disability and aging and death is driving the technofascists' apocalyptical thinking, in addition to their extreme eugenicist thinking. They truly believe they and they alone deserve to survive and thrive in this world.

Thiel’s philosophical assumptions might sound bizarre to outsiders, but they appear to be widely shared among the tech elite. “A.I. and its capabilities represent something analogous to the Second Coming,” Jeremy Nixon, a founder of an A.I. hub called A.G.I. House, said in May. The technology, some tech titans believe, will allow humans — at least some humans — to escape the bounds of earth and even perhaps the inevitability of death. It represents liberation from hopelessness and decay.

Because he, like many rich tech/VCbros in Silicon Valley are aging and filled with a disgust of disability as well as raging fear of death. Neither are things money nor technology can alleviate. That can only get better when you understand that vulnerability and mortality are what we ALL share.

When we talk about "civil rights," it's important to keep in mind that the right of women and girls to access the public sphere without being subjected to sexual violence or harassment is usually considered less important than the free speech rights of men to harass them.
