The "brainstorming ideas" is funny because we know these things literally just steal other work. Yes I understand that the least creative people on earth have all the money and are trying to make everyone be joyless like them, I just don't like it

What you meant to say was that Musk and Altman and Zuck are gonna use their considerable wealth and influence to force this on people. You don't need to lie to make yourself feel better. You're on the side of the oligarchs.

Part of why I don't like the AI-or-bust economy is the constant flopsweat of people on the news who say this HAS to work. Quit making everyone so anxious. Goddamn. If this is the next Google then why are you acting like this? I don't remember being told to buy an iPhone at gunpoint.

Dark thread. Since we watched Musk literally push a "protect the Boers" button in real time with Grok, we now know people or companies could theoretically pay their way into putting a thumb on the scale for Grok/Claude/ChatGPT. This is why the AI stans want you to believe it's thinking

This is the thing about AI that I love so much. Think of all the morons you know (many on this site!) using and swearing by this tech that can change the output depending on who is controlling the AI. And those dumbasses still believe it should be used for anything regarding data!

You mean the thing that does Cliffs Notes of things it has read is not thinking at all and is just showing you Cliffs Notes of things it read? Crazy. People with functioning brains have told you over and over that LLMs don't think for themselves, but we are running out of functioning brains

If you're wondering WHY they are pitching the press this way it's because it worked for Musk and now he's richer than God. Find some useful idiots in the media. Find some suckers with money. Get PAID. They're looking for ways to sell this thing. It's a hustle, nothing more

This is also why the administration made sure to tell everyone it was AI that blew up the school in Iran. Somehow the fucking idiots who keep pushing AI are either unable or unwilling to realize they're being used to cover for this shit. "IT HAS USES!" Yes, being blamed for killing kids.

RFK Jr. wants people to get sick. He wants them to get sick and he thinks it is a good thing if they die, since those who live will have "natural immunity" and emerge stronger and fitter.

way to go, you fucking morons. I hope you're happy with how things are going
Going beyond the necessary cost cutting, tech’s newly radicalized billionaires used this moment to wage class war and enforce discipline on what they saw as an unruly workforce. Gone were the days of coddling tech workers and viewing them as the industry’s most valuable assets. Instead, the progressivism and idealism that had come, in part, from the techno-utopianism of the 2000s and 2010s was now seen by Silicon Valley’s executives and investors as an explicit threat. And so, these billionaires set their sights on winning the culture war and dismantling the left-liberal foundations they believed had turned their own workers against them. To do so, and to avoid another bout of Biden-esque regulation, they threw in their support with Trump, laying the foundations of what would soon be known as the tech oligarchy—a power bloc uniting capital and politics under a shared project of restoring control.

Wrestling with a term for a subset of AI users that I've seen a lot of recently; best I could come up with is AI pragmatists. These are people who acknowledge the AI backlash and even what LLMs "suck at", but say their use case anecdotes prove there's value in LLMs and they know how to extract it.

I fucking love every turn in this AI trip. Getting harder and harder (or maybe not!) for people to find a reason to stand ten toes down on unnecessary technology that's only value is making the worst people in the world richer. Learn to code, learn to use Photoshop. You'll be proud of yourself

Part of the problem is that if you were to have the proper reaction to even 10% of this it would leave you unable to function normally. If nothing else you end up repressing stuff just because fully experiencing it is impossible to do all at once.

All of the LLMs stole from me. Most of the big "A.i." billionaires are horrifying right wingers. Consumer-facing generative "A.i." "writing" and "art" tools deskill people, cheat kids out of real education, spread falsehoods and disinfo, and violate privacy. So no, I ain't using that shit.

If you want to be even more basic, tech that used to connect us is now trying to stop us from talking to other people. Taking gambling out of the sportsbook, taking dating out of the bars/clubs/gyms/wherever people meet, replacing friends with chatbots. It's solely transactional now.

Libraries make us a harder target for authoritarianism. Equal access to info, ideas, and space that doesn’t require a purchase to belong. Also: using the library means money stays in your community instead of streaming out to Amazon. 📚 What’s checked out on your card right now?
