the AI fugue has handicapped our workforce
we are slowly punishing reading comprehension
this will have educational consequences (that I'm trying to solve). I don't think that we can adjust without rapid education and making extreme specialists of us all.
This requires coordination, certification, licensing, and other tiers of authenticity. False experts can ruin sample gathering, can ruin training. False expertise is exemplified by the current American Administration. Look at Robert F. Kennedy Jr.; he's a false expert. He is responsible for the measles outbreak. He is responsible for ivermectin abuse by humans. False expertise is overtaking real expertise. And the results are continuously disastrous and large-scale.
brother read those numbers out loud
If I make $200k I do not have $400k off-balance gambling debt
ask grok about the epstein files. ask gemini about the epstein files. ask them about obama's legacy as a war criminal and the reclassification of civilians as combatants to make drone striking weddings more palatable
unbelievable chauvinism in here
do you think that China is some place devoid of business? it's the center of global commerce now. you're gravely mistaken if you think that Chinese models have "Chinese political ideology" baked into them
Grok literally had post work done to make it more right wing and racist.
sheer lunacy
> the societal implications of being unable to prove land ownership
accidental communism
I run my AI headless in a docker container and give it access to git – it can only contribute code - when it needs a secret I put it in a docker container in vault. when it needs infra, it makes me a jira ticket. that's my workflow.
which is a result of the United States and other western forces (Israel) weaponizing AI to create propaganda
implementing their own version of steganographic monitoring lol
lol no way it lasts that long
we programmatically created a system with implicit trust and now that trust is washing away. business logic should probably be guaranteed and have to pass a series of tests in order to provide expected service
I think you're right to have been uneasy at the title because it's so capitalist in the framing. "Win" friends sounds capitalist, while "influence people" sounds a lot like the vapid propaganda networks we interact with every day
cheers. I think you're doing a good job and ruffling some feathers here! Your content has been great.
I highly recommend reading Marx. Your content has related Marxist topics like the 'Fetishism of Commodities' (Software as Witchcraft) and the Labor Theory of Value.
we are a certain type of people here, aren't we?
this is because you didn't take liberal arts seriously
Throwing in "a trail of tears" at the end is pretty ridiculous. It's just hardware.
All of the largest instituted famines were literally perpetrated by Fascist Capitalist societies... I think it's interesting how much agitprop westerners swallow and think it's sugar.
Turning into? It already is. I wish I had a hedge fund to direct towards shorting AI-driven companies.
socialism could help us here.
