Fuck AI

"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.

My point is that what he's aiming for isn't what you're imagining or describing. He doesn't want comfort or care for others, he wants to have as much money and power as he can possible claw in, and others having something means he has less to hoard.

In short, he's lying and it's important to understand that.

[–] Grimy@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

Hopefully we can have change so we get what he predicts and not what he wants.

It's also not what this image is saying either.

Yes we know what Musk actually wants, but what's being described in the image is quite nice

"The image about what the billionaire psycho is saying isn't really about what the billionaire psycho is saying."

That's not how this works.

Musk: "Don't kill puppies"

You: I'm going to kill so many fucking puppies

This is where we are at right now. Yes we do know Musk is a bad guy, but even bad people can say good things.

Having robots labor for us would be great, just because Musk said thay doesn't make it evil. But because Musk said it we can infer he has some additional motives, but the statement itself is still a good thing

Like we don't have to be this unnecessarily absolute and obtuse about things.

I already said that there's an actual good version of post-scarcity, good try though. And letting wolves in sheep's fur lead you into the slaughterhouse because they put up a sign that says "Utopia" is just going to doom you and everyone else.

And letting wolves in sheep's fur lead you into the slaughterhouse

Good try, but I don't think I ever said blindly follow Musk. That's an assumption you made

I already said that there's an actual good version of post-scarcity

Why are we arguing?

[–] ech@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 weeks ago

You tell me. You're the one that popped in here.

good try though

No one's trying anything but telling you to try logic. We may even agree that Musk is full of shit, but goddamn the failure at logic is cringe.

brah over here pretending like he represents logic.
you don’t understand logic, brah
go take a logic class, brah

OP had plenty of opportunity to write exactly what they meant. Responding to the meaning of words is exactly how this works.

Rejecting an idea as stated because you don't like the source is genetic fallacy. Basically

you: MUSK BAD: THEREFORE, EVERYTHING MUSK SAY BAD

Musk: 1+1=2

you: BAD

You know how moronic your comments look with this shit?

All we need is Musk to profess a love for Marxism-Leninism for tankies to renounce it on lemmy.

[–] lmmarsano@lemmynsfw.com 0 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Then maybe OP should have written that instead of what they actually wrote. Are we all supposed to share a mass delusion OP wrote something else? Words mean things.

[–] ozymandias@lemmy.dbzer0.com 0 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

oh looook, what a suprise, you’re a condescending, pompous asshole in every single comment.
wonder why someone wouldn’t respect you?

[–] lmmarsano@lemmynsfw.com 1 points 2 weeks ago

YOU MAD
U mad, brah? Not our fault your fee-fees brittle & logic offends you.
