Re:I’m not a programmer, and I used AI to build my first bot by jazzyjackson on Thursday October 05, 2023 @08:37PM (#37785980)
I appreciate your righteous screed. I imagine it won't be a decade before we see a fork in society between those who embrace a UBI and a world filled with bots, centaurs and llm-mediated-hive-minds and those who simply want nothing to do with it.

Maybe the luddites made it clear that destroying capital doesn't make for a winning endgame, the Amish might be a better model - they still participate in the broader economy but they've built their pockets of antiquity where they get by with more elbow grease than they otherwise would have to, and have a spiritual basis for meaning that most of secular society lacks. I probably won't be joining them but could see a new movement that accepts diesel engines, lithium batteries and computers, but draws the line at anything that starts to mention "hidden layers" or "nondeterministic behavoir" (outside that randomness needed for accurate simulations and cryptography)

Haven't come up with a name yet.
