    Highly recommend the Better Offline podcast by Ed Zitron. He spends a lot of time shitting on these guys and generative AI in general

    The rich are trying to achieve world domination before we collectively strip them of their excess wealth to fix wealth inequality and dethrone them.

    I wish i were kidding…

    Nothing will meaningfully improve until the rich fear for their lives

    Tech bros never wanted to make the world a better place. They’re the 10% and they want to be the 0.1%. Where THEY get to be the boot on our necks.

    As if we haven’t all (or at least many) been under mass surveillance for at least 20 years…

    Not defending anything, just fuck, I wish people started noticing shit before it came knocking on their individual door…

    He’s not talking about an unintended side effect. He’s discussing a primary mission goal. They want AI to enable more inequality, which is exactly why they’re trying to outlaw DeepSeek now.

      They are trying to solve the $1 trillion question that the bourgeois have been seeking for centuries: How to remove the need to pay wages? How to remove the workers from the equation?

        I’m convinced that if they get a robot which can serve as an acceptable soldier/laborer, they’ll go full Children of Men and sterilize most of the population. And they really believe AI will let them replace the artists, too.

    What sort of bizarre dichotomy is this? These really are the options? Bad or morally bankrupt? /rhetorical questions
