Nope. Argentina is recovering from the illness of socialism.

FabioTheNewOrder@lemmy.world 1 week agoMaybe, and I say maybe, before starting to dismantle core-agencies needed for the maintenance and management of a state, one should look into the meddling between private and public interests. Like, how muvh of our money is being used to sustain dead-end projects such as Ai development or fossil fuel? Do we want to also look into the military spending and the paths grants provided to this end follow?
If Argentina has taught us anything is that leaving citizens without services makes the lives of those same citizens even worse. The results of no hospital, schools, or state management agencies will be shown in some years, can’t wait to see libertarians trying to spin that situation in a positive way

Oh yes, cut spending by eliminating agencies needed by the people to have a decent life in a developed society and present the resulting savings as a victory.
It’s like a company manager firing most of its employees and selling it’s machines presenting the administrative books at the next shareholders meeting. Much profits, wow! And then the year after the company goes bankrupt and foreclose, who can say why this has happened??? Must have been the invisible hand free market!!! Fs fs, on god

Bureaucrats don’t produce they leech. Free markets improve lives of ordinary citizens not paper pushers.

We don’t have a free market. And letting the business owners do the ransacking will make it even less of a free market. You’re over here rooting for corporate capture.
Elon just awarded himself 100s of millions in government contacts for cars that fucking fall apart. He’s dumping his trash product off on you, the taxpayer’s dime. And you’re cheering him on

Yeah buddy, sure. I’m certain without rules and laws all companies would act in the best interests of the consumers, not selling dangerous or poisonous goods at all!! And they would never think about creating cartels to fix the prices of their products. This could never happen!!
God, you’re thick as a brick but less useful. Basically a rock with the capacity to write dumb things on the internet

Did you just call AI development a dead end? Hoo boy

How many trillions of dollars have been wasted on teaching chatbots to lie better?
Bronzebeard@lemm.ee 1 week ago
The fact that you think that’s the extent of AI development means you’re not informed enough to really comment on this issue. LLMs are only one from of AI. And the fact that they can now recognize natural language is a huge boost in itself.
knightly@pawb.social 1 week ago
Large Language Models are the form of so-called “AI” that’s being crammed into everything at our expense.
The stuff that’s actually useful, like engineering and bioscience models, are not getting trillions in investments in the hopes that they’ll render the majority of the population unemployable.
FabioTheNewOrder@lemmy.world 1 week ago
Can you point out a single application of any Ai program and show its return on the investment made to develop such program in the first place? Because, as far as I know, these programs take a lot of computing power (which is not freely available in nature) and maintenance to operate properly. And these, beside the development process, are crude costs which need to be paid and accounted for.
Your level of understanding about this field shows, even in your parallel conversation in this thread. Amazing how much misunderstanding a person with a slight higher intelligence than that of an houseplant can accrue. Truly remarkable stuff
