I think that has been over since marketers got involved. Remember raw water trending? That is paying for the privilege of drinking non-potable water.

Eww... economically illiterate demagoguery under the guise of this is good/bad for 'ordinary people'. Maybe Matt would be happier if they used Erdogan's Monetary policy and the hyperinflation because he thinks the time opportunity cost should be zero.

No, but the sheep are able to move on their own initiative instead of just in response to a prompt and can actually physically move objects. Don't count them out just yet.

Are you really unironically claiming "Jews control the media" tropes as an 'everyone knows' fact? No, it isn't totally cool because you ran a find and replace with "Israel" first.
Oh wait. You're a Holocaust denier. So you are evil AND have vapor for brains.

Being anti-permission culture is not the same thing as bad faith. It is just rejecting your arguement as stating scale suddely changes the rules. Plus the whole argument based on supposed impact is missing the point like saying that free speech should be treated differently for being more impactful than anticipated with mass publication. Something throughly rejected.

Why has media literacy gotten so bad that people literally forget the concept of fiction versus non-fiction? Seriously, that is the level of small children and they are treating "read a story superficially similar" like it is a prophecy.
Re:Everyone should slow down AI development except for me

The slowdown has to be one of the stupidest demands out there. When has technology arrived only when 'we are ready for it'. When has any prep-time when the writing was on the wall used to prepare for the future? Never. That is putting aside the coordination problem and ulterior motives that a call for a slowdown reads as "I am falling behind! Pause the race!".

To be frank that sounds batshit insane levels of spite. You were going to try to promote the general production of knowledge but now because you worry someone you dislike who you don't even know.might benefit from it you aren't?

Play devils advocate for a bit: of course they should model themselves after the villains! Villains get shit done and change the world, and use it to the fullest potential.
'Heroes' are the schmucks who get roped around and fail to make things better until the very end at best, and even then leave massive amounts of preventable harm.
If one sets out to change the world don't be a hero, be a villain. It is horrifying, sure but it is the logical conclusion.

Also it is just plain transparent projection. I will point out only one ideology outright killed entire classes of people once they were considered 'no longer useful' and that wasn't capitalism, it was communism. And this "capitalists will kill you all if you don't rise up!" propaganda is crusty and old, back since the emergence of computers and the discipline of cybernetics in the classical sense of the word.
