  You really think education reform is going to win out over creating a giant pool of educated serfs for Jeff‘s warehouses? I would give anything for your sense of optimism, honestly.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How To Argue With An AI Booster⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Personally I get a lot of value out of LLMs. I’ve used them almost everyday for the last three years in various projects and general chat bots, but I wouldn’t call myself an AI Booster. I’ve heard the criticisms about Gen AI the author addresses and I believe this is another case of blaming technology instead of the capitalists behind it. Do you hate the fact that a computer can generate text or images or do you really just hate the assholes that unethically scraped all of our human achievements for their benefit and are willing to destroy everything to enrich themselves on our labor? I bet it’s the latter.

  I see your ublock and raise you Pihole.

  The internet has always had ads, some of the most obnoxious were those mid to late 90s banner ads with sound. I’ll never forget loading a random page and my speakers screaming: Helllllloooooooooo.
