Anyone offering easy answers to complex questions should be suspect. And that does largely incriminate all religious groups around the world. They often espouse seemingly decent and benign ideologies. But unfortunately the mindset that latches on to those things, idealogues; are the danger. Even if the ideology themselves aren’t necessarily.
Then I hope to see you out in the next few days trimming the grass with tweezers. So we can all get a good chuckle. Take a lesson from the luddites. They didn’t destroy the Looms because they hated the looms. They destroyed the Looms because the owners sought to cut them out.
A tool is simply a tool. It isn’t good or bad. It’s fashy Tech Bros out for a quick buck that make it bad. Be mad at them. Not the tools. AI isn’t going to make it impossible or undesirable for us to create as we always have. Just the fash.
addendum Your value as a human shouldn’t be how useful your art is to someone else. Your art is valuable even if you’re the only one that appreciates it. And only fascists and other authoritarians will impeded your ability to create it. I for one welcome the day we see creations realized that couldn’t/wouldn’t have been realized other ways. Animations etc accelerated with better AI tweening algorithms etc. Allowing us to see truly unique even singular visions we wouldn’t have seen otherwise for example. Fuck the slop.
Possibly. But there are valid uses of ai. Uses that streamline the process, take away some of the more tedious bits. Allow the artist to create more, easier. But you’re also not wrong to imply that for a corporation that will always be the exception and not the rule
Pug has some problems socializing. But they’re not wrong. You act like Europe has no agency. That they’re nothing but a puppet. Which is a suspect claim on the face of it. The United States absolutely influenced a lot of them. But didn’t force them or puppet them. South America is a slightly different can of worms. But that’s not the accusation you made.
That sort of BS is straight out of the russian/ml propaganda playbook. I’m not saying my country didn’t do heinous shit in our name. They absolutely did and I don’t defend it. But that certainly isn’t justification to Parrot equally bad groups BS.
Well maybe not as hard as Inigo Montoya.
Only if you have a juvenile concept of political Spectrum. That only extends across one dimension. Leninists are barely nominally left-wing. In practice most of them are State capitalist and not at all left wing.
In practice social Democrats and even Democratic socialists tend to be more left-leaning than leninists. And don’t feel a reactionary need to Slaughter or imprison those that disagree with them regularly. I mean if we are going by the providing social benefit to your chosen class of people qualifies a socialism. Then that would make the Nazis socialist. Which they most definitely we’re not.
Authoritarians are authoritarian first. Left or right is an afterthought. No horseshoes required.
So you’re saying Facebook will lose interest in the feddiverse and leave it largely unscathed to go on to do what it has always done? Not sure why people are so doom and gloom about this. This seems like the best outcome you all would want.
They implied those things would stop a nuclear blast to us. Duck and Cover.
