The people pushing most aggressively for generative AI routinely hung out with Jeffrey Epstein.
They will burn the whole planet to avoid taking responsibility.

I stopped trying to debate software developers on LLMs a while back. It's fruitless. Even if they could be budged on empirical grounds, they are explicitly fine with using tools that are themselves deeply unethical.

Holding each other accountable is an act of love.
Without consequence, our actions are devoid of meaning. We become lost, rattling the bars of our mortal cage in a desperate attempt for someone or something to stop us.
To remind us that we are not alone.

The #ai narrative has won and people are no longer responsible for actions taken by automatons they built.
From data theft to deepfakes, none of this was inevitable. These were design choices made by people.
An unsurprising outcome from a colonizing, white supremacist, rape culture.

#AI is just capitalism taken to it's next logical level.
The automation of labor theft.
Subjecting the workers to the violence of poverty while a few elites scrape all benefit for their petty purposes.

Generative models are just a machine that guesses really fast.
You might say the same of the human brain. However our machines are much more resource efficient.
Fundamental learning is subject to the laws of physics.

I try to be polite when I see people posting #AI apologist crap. But let's be real here:
1. Software neural networks are absurdly inefficient. Neural chips are better, but still pale in comparison to real biological neural nets.

the idea that we will ever devise a technology that can automatically sort true statements from false ones and factual ones from “hallucinations” is a lead-to-gold fantasy

The central problem of social media is lack of trust and accountability. Information spreads like wildfire with little to no expectation that it can and should be traceable.
This problem is both demand-side (we should expect better) and supply-side (we should produce better)

We spend more resources policing access to accommodations than we do on the accommodations themselves.
I don't care if a non-disabled person accesses a disability accommodation for the same reason I don't care if a child whose parents are rich gets free lunch at school. We don't need to means test being a kind person. I have better things to do with my time than be a cop over social services.
