"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

As soon as they automate labour and violence, they won't need the proletariat at all.
And given how much they've cared for us historically, I think this should be raising much more concerns.
A lot of people with no money, shelter, or food with lots of time on their hands should scare them more.
Should, but doesn't, because everyone is apathic as fuck and the rich have got private security and labour for them.
And lots of people just don't understand which side they're on.
"Socialism never took root in America because the poor see themselves not as an exploited proletariat but as temporarily embarrassed millionaires"
How long is that private security going to last as they see their friends and family all suffer from what their bosses are doing?
Just a thought.
You'd be fucking surprised, man. Genuinely.
