I'm increasingly frustrated that people who are anti-AI aren't being taken seriously, and taking a page out of my thoughts on why the anti-trans backlash got as far as it did I'm starting to think the anti-AI side isn't extreme enough.

“The test of our progress is not whether we add more to the abundance of those who have much; it is whether we provide enough for those who have too little.” ~President Franklin D. Roosevelt, 1936. Image: Universal History Archive/Getty Images.

This black and white photo shows a clean-shaven man, President Franklin D. Roosevelt, sitting at a desk and wearing a suit. He holds a paper in his right hand and appears to be speaking into a microphone that sits on the desk.

Some of you have forgotten that only three years ago you were perfectly capable of writing an essay, writing a eulogy, telling a bedtime story to a child, and it should worry you that powerful companies have convinced us we can’t do things we’ve been doing for 5,000 years.

OpenAI and Microsoft admitted LLMs are predatory tech built on “an astonishing theft of unprecedented proportions,” and the “largest theft of labor in human history.” An internal Microsoft document said AI has created a “doom loop” that is killing “the entire web.” www.404media.co/doom-loop-op...

Trans people have fought and suffered and borne the brunt of the depravity of fascist excess (along with immigrants and Black people), and it looks like the most we can hope for is a decade or more fighting Democrats to restore rights we had in every state in the union as recently as 2020.

Literally nobody, including MAGA, had any ideological commitment or pre-existing policy goal of picking a fight with Canada. This is all happening solely because the crazy old man randomly blurted it out. And that makes it worse. There's nothing to negotiate, no aim to satisfy. He's just insane.

The only engineers I’ve encountered that are happy in our new reality of working with LLMs constantly, enjoy closing tickets more than learning how to do something or the satisfaction of coming up with an elegant solution. The level of craft is rapidly diminishing.

In my recent & ongoing trip thru an Intensive Outpatient Program… …I have cognitively learned that feelings of “shame” (as when “should” is involved) SERIOUSLY DEGRADE PROBLEM SOLVING. Thus “shame” about not doing what I “should” oft helps fuck up figuring out what, & how, I can do something.

”abolish ICE“ means (1) abolishing a particular agency and (2) salting the earth so that nothing that does what it does can ever emerge again—no matter what it‘s called or who is in charge of it.
