I feel like you could make kind of a productive analogy between AI agents where they save the user time by wasting everybody else's time and the American approach to vehicle safety where occupant safety is prioritized at the expense of everybody else's. Prosocial? Never heard of her.

it's good to see this laid out clearly, but i'm once again going to point to Peter Naur's 1985 essay "Programming as Theory Building"
The present discussion is a contribution to the understanding of what programming is. It suggests that programming properly should be regarded as an activity by which the programmers form or achieve a certain kind of insight, a theory, of the matters at hand. This suggestion is in contrast to what appears to be a more common notion, that programming should be regarded as a production of a program and certain other texts.

I’m glad more people are pointing this out. I talked about it it a few weeks ago w/ @janus.bsky.social Companies are attempting a sleight of hand where they capture data but argue because of how it’s processed it’s not “recording” and is thus private. They are still surveillance devices!
theverge.com
We can’t just change the definition of ‘recording’
Soon, asking “Does this device have a camera?” won’t be good enough.

Google Gemini commercials are presenting "home teams are more likely to win one-run games 18% of the time" like that's a deep insight you need AI for instead of just being how the bottom of the ninth works

This tech is based on stolen labor, then I reject it. This tech intensifies racism, sexism, and class exploitation, then I reject it. This tech exploits workers in the Global South, then I reject it. This tech exacerbates env & climate problems, then I reject it. All these rationales are valid!

Some progressives (ahem, Bernie) appear to have fully been taken in by the cult of AI. Others seem confused about the difference between the “computer god —> paper clips” scenario vs “shitty agentic AI fucks things up bc the company was careless” - which is what has been happening lately.

I absolutely know who needs to hear this, though I won’t name names. Progressive orgs need to stop pretending that “AGI” and “x-risk” are ideas to take seriously. No one is building a computer god that could go rogue and turn us into paper clips.

my favorite thought experiment at the moment is the cognitive dissonance between "we will force our sentient unpaid ai agents to make millions of restaurant reservations for us. that will be their only purpose. they will live in a tamagotchi." But we also must make sure they are happy doing this

"i'm 90 percent fur," Biberty cries. I stop sharpening my cleaver and lock eyes with him, my right hand gripping him from behind. I give a couple of medium-firm squeezes and a smile. He's marbled like kobe beef. By the way he just sighed, he knows it.

This is what they want. To eliminate most of us so that we aren’t a threat to them in a world decimated by climate change. They are very explicit that this is their actual political goal and that they see AI (“superintelligence”) as the leading mechanism to make that happen.

The turn most software devs have taken shouldn't have surprised me. Well before LLMs, most devs I've met had the soul of a landlord Sometimes "landlord trying to be cool". Sometimes "landlord who wants suffering with the rent" But both see the world with the eyes of a rent-seeker
