scientists figured out potential solutions to a technological advance destroying society more than a century ago tech corps are only a threat to society because we have designed our economic and political systems to let them.

I said it before and I'll say it again. The simplest solution to the AI debates is to just make companies pay for all the material they use to train. If the tech is worth trillions they can pay us all. If they cant they shouldn't exist But even anti-ai people are too capitalism pilled

the worst part is the cruelty doesn't even make financial sense. it isn't even the most profitable way too do things. the cruelty is the point. we have incentivized people to avoid preventative care which leads to overwhelmed ERs and patients that cost orders of magnitude more to care for

They have no gods. They work magic, and think they are gods themselves. But they are not. And when they die, they become dust and bone, and their ghosts whine on the wind a little while till the wind blows them away. They do not have immortal souls.

AI companies: Our models have achieved AGI! They have solved problems scientists have been hard at work solving in chats with our models for the past six months We are like pretty sure this is just coincidence

K @k2052.bsky.social · 09/09/2026

SOTA models clearly got better in past 6 months at code by RLing on data from chats and harnesses so it wouldn't shock me at all if some of the recent advancements in other fields have been accomplished the same way Just copying + pasting all the researchers results back 2 them six months later

I was a very early adopter of AI coding tools and I still think the old methods are better. Write code yourself use AI to generate bits as you go along as a productivity multiplier Aider figured this out years ago and it still holds up and results in better quality code than the agentic slop

K @k2052.bsky.social · 21/08/2026

Been doing a lot more agentic coding lately because free tokens from e.g google and gotta say even though it finally "works" I fucking hate it This way of coding is god fucking awful. It doesn't feel like an amplifier at all either, it just pushes the productivity crunch to different phase.

As an autist in tech that struggles with moral rigidity being sandwiched between anti-ai tech activists and AI tech bros building the torment nexus is definitely contributing 2 making me unwell psychologically lately ngl I cant imagine I'm alone in it having a negative mental health impact

The moral purity crap in AI discourse is really getting very very fucking old People increasing other's psychological distress under the guise of praxis is both gross and ineffective anyway More being a jerk to billionaires and less being a jerk to people surviving

future sci-fi tech is only as good as the economic/social technology that manages it. I'm hopeful that if all the tech gets impressive enough everyone will realize how within reach the abundance star trek world is and demand it. But then again so much has been possible 4 so long and yet no change

Feeling crazy with all the devs acting like models have improved massively in recent mnths. As someone that has built their own harnesses and constantly uses LLMs I just don't see it They just shoved more knowledge into the models by making them huge. They aren't any "smarter"

An environment where u can play off incompetence as publicity creates plausible deniability 4 both incompetence and publicity stunts. Investors think u r a genius maverick legal authorities think u did an oopsie People need 2 learn that tech CEOs design their companies 2 avoid accountability

What was fun was trying to break into tech during peak kool aid times a decade ago and getting rejected constantly for "culture fit" because I never drank it Watching everyone the past few years realize it was always the bad place and their CEOs r awful people...

K @k2052.bsky.social · 20/07/2026

Will never cease to be both funny and horrifying how the oligarchs figured out how to grift the educated class by just spewing concepts they steal from sci-fi books CEOs said a few phrases about computers, space, and AI and all the tech guys were like "hell yeah let's build the torment nexus!"

Yesterday: AI must be built and given to the people so we can acellerate humanity damn the consequences Today: ban open source models!! When will techies learn their leaders never have any actual values it was and always will be a grift to justify whatever actions they take to grab more wealth

K @k2052.bsky.social · 19/07/2026

When u work this way the models don't feel much better than they were when Gemini 3.1 dropped Oh u burned millions of tokens and the agent coded it without bugs because u couldn't bother 2 write 1000 words? Good job so productive I'm sure not understanding anything will result in no technical debt

K @k2052.bsky.social · 19/07/2026

I still don't understand devs using agents Not sure if they delude themselves that they are more productive or if there are just a ton of devs that cant write or system design. But my AI workflow has changed zero in like 10 months. I plan out all the code and have it do the busy work.

Turns out wanting to make the world better results in people that are effective at making the world better They are able to make pragmatic choices because they actually want real results they want progress And people trust them because they know they actually have values and goals

K @k2052.bsky.social · 14/07/2026

The biggest bullshit the Democrats pulled off was branding themselves as pragmatic. When progressives in practice actually are more pragmatic and effective They all had freaks out over e.g Mamdani won't be able to get things done because he is too progressive Yet he keeps getting shit done

Pretending there is some avg computer user that doesn't give a shit about x is just some way people make themselves feel special like they get the normies and the weird online people just don't get them but they do. But humans r way more diverse and interesting than we give it credit 4

It reeks of how we used to pretend nerd culture was some niche thing and then within a decade it went completely mainstream and now it is culture Tell someone in the 80s that would be the case and they would have given you endless rants about how avg people hate space, just don't get comics etc

I'm really tired of how quickly people discourse about avg humans and "computers" Most people's relationship 2 technology is more complex in origins than we give them credit 4 There are grandmas in appalachia theming their arch distro and there r tech CEOs that haven't opened a terminal in 20 yrs
