Oh, I consider ads-driven economy an atrocity.

Imagine having all your data stolen, and then getting a new and exciting autoimmune disease.

Do you ever feel shame for working in an ads company? Or is the pay good enough to justify the atrocities you help to perpetrate?
Sure, it will just derive a bioweapon from CommonCrawl. Maybe it will build a fusion reactor and a FTL drive as well.
If the economy collapsed, who builds the robotic tanks? Who keeps providing the data center with power? Magic nanobots?
Next you gonna say we don't have images in our brain, only descriptions?

Lol, now every pattern of speech is AI? How about we jusr stop talking then?
But what else is there to it? Mathematics has no experiments where you find new knowledge in nature. There are just symbols.
Nature has no language. Language is a human tool to imperfectly describe nature. Putting language before nature is magical thinking (also known as Platonism).

You will still die you know, no matter your diet. And no god will reward your righteous corpse for eating healthy.
Mathematics is a human-designed game that involves rearranging symbols.

A nuclear explosion is amazing, but I won't be excited about the nuke falling on my head.
Prison labor for the rescue!

What's so exciting about your software being made of code nobody can or wants to understand?

How do you know it? Sci-fi tropes are not a good argument.

>In Chomsky's view, for instance, the overwhelming majority of intellectuals have historically acted as servants of power, rationalizing the status quo, and manufacturing consent.

Why Would You Say Something So Controversial Yet So Brave? dot gif

>trust my own notions of perception and thought to be a rational and accurate reflection of reality.

But why are you trusting the psychology class? Do you believe it was made by special people with rational and accurate perception of reality?

Yes, and then you'll build a communist paradise. It's just one purge away.
