"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.

Well I was against AI before, but now that I've read the demented gibberings of this 80 year old shit-encrusted pedophile on the subject, I'm convinced!

[–] Kazumara@discuss.tchncs.de 10 points 7 hours ago

The first time they are saying something believable:

we have tremendous criminal and regulatory power over these companies.

They do wield criminal power frequently, in the pursuit of their own gain

[–] Shindo66@lemmy.world 19 points 9 hours ago (2 children)

I know stuff has been said before, but when the president says basically "we have to do this and we will do it" and "if you dont like it we will brand you a treasonous traitor" for something you have very strong opinions about, its kind of scary.

[–] mrgoosmoos@lemmy.ca 11 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

yeah there's a reason the USA is considered a hostile nation now

[–] Madison420@lemmy.world 4 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

We were never not considered hostile, we just had a ton of offsetting soft power. There's just less of a reason to deal with us now that we cut soft power.

[–] mrgoosmoos@lemmy.ca 3 points 8 hours ago (2 children)

nah, Canadians definitely didn't see the USA as actively hostile. now, quite a few do.

[–] CrabAndBroom@lemmy.ml 3 points 7 hours ago

Person in Canada here! This is true, mainly because of the whole "constantly threatening to invade us, shit-talking the Prime Minister non-stop, starting an idiotic trade war and trying to rename our lakes" thing.

Kind of? The white in my hair has doubled in the last year.

This guy was all in on the windmills kill whales conspiracy, yet this is the one he believes is a conspiracy. Im so ready for this entire decade to be over with...

[–] FluidBeef@quokk.au 5 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

This gives me the impression that they know China is winning.

[–] Einskjaldi@lemmy.world 3 points 4 hours ago

Not technically winning but close behind at a fraction of the money spent developing it. Ultimately the prize seem to be that whoever gets the ongoing money from enterprise stuff is the winner. But that can fluctuate monthly.

[–] davidagain@lemmy.world 4 points 7 hours ago

He thinks he's strong and smart, but he's weak and dumb.

[–] FoxAlive@lemmy.zip 14 points 9 hours ago* (last edited 9 hours ago)

The only bad things that hes referencing that anthropic did, is they refused to allow the military to use their Ai to be used in autonomous kill weapons, and be used as survalience against the people of the united States.

And anthropic still does both of those things lol. So if those are the bad guys, you can only immagine what the good ai "people" do. Which is assist in the genocide in Gaza, help surveil the people who don't like it, and generate pro us, pro ai propaganda for his friends media companies like Jeff bezos. If you don't like the fact trump made it illegal for the states to regulate ai in anyway (including generating ai csam), then you are a anti tech extremist, terrorist, and traitorist.

[–] echo@lemmy.ml 106 points 14 hours ago (2 children)

yeah that sounds like a totally mentally stable guy

[–] BooBees@fedinsfw.app 25 points 13 hours ago (2 children)

And you know if he’s arguing against regulation that they’ve got some seriously evil plans in the pipeline to roll out and profit from or extract power/control from. Also all you need to do is look at the favorability rates between the US and China on ai, US citizens really really distrust and don’t look forward do more ai, whereas China already has implemented tons of serious regulation and controls on ai and the polls are sky high for favorability and looking forward to more ai in china.

[–] lemmy_outta_here@lemmy.world 21 points 11 hours ago (2 children)

All the strong and smart people I know are CONSTANTLY reminding everyone how STRONG AND SMART (High IQ!) they are.

They also commonly use the term "Treasonists".

[–] Einskjaldi@lemmy.world 2 points 4 hours ago

I prefer Treasonistas, it's more festive.

americans elected this guy.

[–] crozilla@lemmy.world 27 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

But only ~30% of the population, and those people only after 70 years of education cuts, misinformation, and religious indoctrination…it took the GOP a long time, but they got what they wanted. It’s a real endorsement for perseverance. And amoral greed, I guess.

[–] potter2010@lemmy.ca 18 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

You need to add in those that didn't vote.

If you don't vote then you automatically support who is elected.

[–] shawn1122@sh.itjust.works 2 points 5 hours ago* (last edited 5 hours ago)

They knew he was a possibility and still didn't bother showing up to prevent his reelection after he had led an insurrection for being voted out the first time.

At the bare minimum anyone who didn't show up to vote is complicit.

[–] FatVegan@leminal.space 6 points 9 hours ago

Twice. So far

[–] lukaro@lemmy.zip 10 points 12 hours ago

If I could pay my taxes to another country for the remainder of Trumps term I would.

Stop paying attention to this turd, he is living propaganda, his sole purpose is to distract you with pointless nonsense. Every time you see a statement or post or whatever from him, ignore it and look elsewhere to see what they are distracting you from.

[–] the_q@piefed.social 26 points 12 hours ago

If you're pro AI this is who represents you.

[–] fartographer@lemmy.world 7 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

But why, some say, our noses? Why choose this as our goal? And they may well ask, why climb the highest mountain? Why, 35 years ago, fly the Atlantic? Why does Rice play Texas? We choose to cut off our noses. We choose to cut off our noses... We choose to cut off our noses in this social media post and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they will hurt those who can't afford healthcare and we can send those noses to billionaires; because that goal will serve to organize and measure how pacified you have all become, because that challenge is one that will make us laugh, one we are unwilling to postpone, and one we intend to grossly profit off of using Polymarket, and the others, too.

[–] Ghostwurm@lemmy.ca 4 points 9 hours ago

As true today as it was tommorrow

[–] Tooks@piefed.social 2 points 7 hours ago

BEWARE, WE'RE COMING FOR YOU.

Meanwhile, many Americans (and other DECENT humans) wish for this man's timely expiration multiple times a day. In public forums, using direct threats. Unless they're a darker shade of khaki or green, they ain't coming for nobody, especially those willing to stand up against them. We can't meet them at their level when knee-jerk legislation is fisted through the corrupt courts, but go-on, step onto my front porch, if you will.

[–] AVincentInSpace@pawb.social 14 points 11 hours ago

"High IQ"

"Treasonists"

[–] decolo@piefed.social 7 points 10 hours ago (5 children)

No typos, stays generally on topic, I'm skeptical he's capable of writing this legibly. Does anyone do semantic analysis of his posts for attribution?

[–] rethnor@lemmy.zip 5 points 9 hours ago

It was probably Natalie that wrote it.

[–] northernlights@lemmy.today 6 points 10 hours ago

"Treasonists, traitors" - no typo but makes up words and doesn't realize the next word was the one he was looking for. Sounds like a demented old man alright.

[–] toxicbubble@lemmy.world 4 points 9 hours ago

according to SNL cast, he struggles with reading. he probably hires someone to edit his twits

[–] blackberry28@sh.itjust.works 3 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

Yeah no way he's writing it himself. He has someone to do that for him.

[–] nickiwest@lemmy.world 2 points 8 hours ago

Isn't that part of Natalie's job?

"things"

Dementia has diminished his vocabulary significantly, if he's specifying with generalities

[–] lightnsfw@reddthat.com 8 points 12 hours ago

He's always done this. He's a fucking idiot that writes like a 3rd grader.

[–] My_IFAKs___gone@lemmy.world 11 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

Honestly surprised he spelled AI correctly.

Assuming there is a future, people will look back on this time and expect that we were all this goddamned dumb.

[–] humanspiral@lemmy.ca 3 points 9 hours ago

None of the AI bond villain statements this weekend have any policy recommendations that would slow US military/surveillance/gestapo/bond villain use of LLM/AI tools. They are only promoting/perfecting the guardrails on models that are released to the public.

Who wins AI, Wins

Can only be understood as a race for skynet. Any production/productivity benefit from AI made by Americans, can be enhanced by access to more models on price/speed/performance curve. The data centers can all run open models too, and somehow this only growing part of US economy can get more ROI with access to best/cheapest models.

Therefore, winning is not based on helping people the most. It is an open declaration, and based on killing/oppressing people the most. The previous administration viewed global warming as an opportunity to beat China in profifting from its technology sector to pursue green energy. There is massive employment opportunities from just deploying whatever is the cheapest/abundant available green energy in far higher volume because the savings/payback is that much more attractive.

The only reason 30+ year solar energy, and 20+ year EV lifetimes are "falsely demonized as foreign dependence", when 1 year replacement shoes/apparel are not, is the oligarchy controlling your propaganda to protect their profits. All industry is moving towards more automation and less employment.

Nationalist rivalry policy thought must be exterminated. Only way to avoid skynet. Policy that focuses on making the nation the best possible place to live is what creates national prosperity, and extreme employment for anyone wanting a share of that prosperity growth. https://naturalfinance.blogspot.com/2026/09/a-global-prosperity-manifesto.html

If you end your messages with "Thank you for your attention to this matter" it makes you look like a real professional business man. If you're really skilled, add an exclamation mark!

Wish he would use AI to write his posts......

[–] lemmy_outta_here@lemmy.world 6 points 11 hours ago

Haha I'm glad I checked the comments before I posted. This is the first case where AI would be an improvement!
