Comment on Pika Labs new generative AI video tool unveiled — and it looks like a big deal

There’s a lot of “AI is theft” comments in this thread, and I’d just like to take a moment to bring up the Luddite movement at the beginning of the Industrial Revolution: the point isn’t that ‘machines are theft’, or ‘machines are just a fad’, or even ‘machines are bad’ - the point was that machines were the new and highly efficient way capital owners were undermining the security and material conditions of the working class.
Let’s not confuse problems that are created by capitalistic systems for problems created by new technologies - and maybe we can learn something about radical political action from the Luddites.

Did you get it right this time, or can expect another revision?

Hardly, but I’m not against people refining their craft so have at it.

You have said elsewhere that you support theft against the working class if it is done by AI, so your own belief system is gross and unethical.
Pretty disgusting that you virtue signal support of the working class while fighting on behalf of the giant corporations stealing from them.

Christ, you’re so worked up on rhetoric. Maybe, try using your own opinions, rather than those funneled into your meaty language model for you to grind up and spit out the buzzwords in some semblance of coherent thought, hmm? 🤪

Third time’s the charm.
