Who am I, but a servant of the great powers sent to dismantle your impassable fortitude…
Jesus calm your tits, plenty of people don’t see AI itself as the problem but the way it is currently being wielded, is. The Luddites weren’t anti-machine, they were more than happy to use the new tech, but not for a loss of livelihood. That. That’s what people refer to when they say AI is bad, and I think you know that.

Oh no, I agree that the rich have invested too much into AI to have no choice but to evangelize its usage. I just took issue with your framing that humans in general are stupid when it comes to perceived threats, and used a famous line before an invasion to punctuate it

- Comment on pro choice 2 weeks ago:
For anyone wondering what this is
Bertrand Russell coined an analogy: for any (even infinite) collection of pairs of shoes, one can pick out the left shoe from each pair to obtain an appropriate collection (i.e. set) of shoes; this makes it possible to define a choice function directly.
For an infinite collection of pairs of socks (assumed to have no distinguishing features such as being a left sock rather than a right sock), there is no obvious way to make a function that forms a set out of selecting one sock from each pair without invoking the axiom of choice
So mathematicians always make the assumption that they can make a set from an infinite list of other sets based on this hunch, rather than any concrete choice function. And then they build mansions on top of this foundation, and use it score chicks and ferraris, smh

For now. The hobbyist space is under attack, with Qualcomm buying Arduino, and RAM prices through the roof.
