"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.

Silicon Valley is obsessed with talking about the end of the world. They're largely full of sh*t. But it's still worth taking AI seriously and asking why we can't think about moving beyond it (and capitalism.)

Capitalism enables Silicon Valley technologists, and ethno-nationalists who make up this apocalyptic alliance to fuel the fire that is AI as we know it

00:00 - it's easier to imagine AI ending humanity than the end of capitalism
06:19 - What's so scary about AI?
09:52 - So why is everyone taking AI so seriously?
11:40 - Why the end times discourse?
17:19 - The logic / theology of disruption
19:47 - Why can't we disrupt capitalism tho
22:19 - The computer as salvation
24:44 - We don't need AI. We need to end capitalism
