Despite them being a little out of wack and a terrible communicator, they do have a point. AI’s main selling point is centered around how it can make everyone more productive as if we actually need even more productivity. We’re all more than productive enough, AI is giving us nothing but unemployment(as those left are told to work harder), more climate destabilization, and reduced quality of life for every single living thing nearby a data centre.

Their first comment was also just plain bad, not gunna defend that at all. They seem kinda loopy.

You gotta work on your communication, I have zero clue what you’re trying to say. You start off heavily implying at AI is of a high quality, saying nothing else, and then go on about being pro-working class/pro person(I think?), but do it in a way that has holes in just the weirdest places.

It reads like an anti-tax weirdo’s poor understanding of how things work, and a big entity that owns property would love to spend less money on property taxes that might actually benefit the community.

You have the reading comprehension of a toddler. The article is not about a pair of glasses, it’s about a tech company’s response to AI and surveillance, and how another company is irresponsibly using those things.

In Canada, we have “centrists” that are really just fascists that don’t openly hate gay people. There is almost no difference between our current prime minister and the guy so many people were voting against. The stupid thing is that we have a proper progressive party.

My message to you is this: The conservatives know you’re scared and are using that. Their only tactic is to tell you that you need to vote against someone who is worse than them and then they get their power either way. It’s always “we can argue over the shade of blue once you put this specific shade of purple into power” and then nothing happens. The name-brand conservatives complain about them being woke, the “moderates” act like the problem is solved, and the left has to deal with both those idiots refusing to do any work.

Just in the context it’s very “performative hipster”. I’m not taking offense, just new to this and like to know people’s opinions/perceptions until I can eventually form my own.

I’m mostly just asking because I figured the meme was based in something.

I’m no experienced software guy, mostly just a guy who isn’t dangerously stupid, but I’ve been having a good time so far. Or rather, a boring time because the only thing I had to really do was edit the fstab so my other drive would auto-mount. Otherwise it’s delightfully unexciting.

Because killing a CEO is honestly kinda based, gay people aren’t doing anything wrong, and mushrooms and software are largely a matter of taste. Acting on, or even really speaking casually about, your sexual attraction or “potential” sexual attraction to children is not ok.

I don’t even like looking at of-age pornstars who look too young. One of my very good friends is 23 and I feel more of a fatherly love there than anything else. The fact that there are so mang people out there, always conservatives, trying to lower marriage ages and ages of consent, supporting child beaty pageants, or being way too into 18 year olds is fucking disgusting.

PS: If someone has this brain defect but never acts on it, because they know how fundamentally wrong it is, that’s fine. Same idea as being sad your favourite artist turned out to be a huge racist so you had to stop listening to their music.

I installed it last week. If just kinda works, is there supposed to be something bad about it?

Bro they got a dead guy they’re pretending is alive, they’ll do anything.

Paid for with the money they sent.

Careful, we do that in Canada and it makes it very hard to have a conversation when your “centrist”(very conservative) party does a bunch of truly awful shit and half the country pulls “but it’s better than Trump!” put of their ass instead of actually doing anything meaningful.

If freedom is the ability to complain, lots of countries with stringer regulations have that. They have it but better, even, because they have a much greater ability to stop it going away.

I keep those power fantasies to my brain because I can tell the difference between a daydream and reality. I don’t care what AI could make me feel, I am never going to use it for anything if I’m aware of it.

I’m just certain you’re fully understanding this. Your original comment showed that your priority lay more with the technology than with the regulation which will keep us safe. It’s like you’re halfway there, and I don’t want to say I’m not acknowledging that, but much of this technology isn’t even really helping, and we keep supporting it as if we want it to be ready once we’ve gotten our acts together but all it’s doing is reinforcing the already disasterous power imbalances.

More productivity is not always a good thing. What you’re producing actually has to be good, and that’s what a LOT of people are missing. It’s like people saying that AI is great because “they” can “make” a picture really quickly, but they’ve completely side-stepped a major part of fucking existence and the meaning behind what it is to be a human being. Right now all this producitivity is ultimately going towards increased violence, hatred, and the destruction of the “pesky” working class so a few of the worst people can profit even more.

Ya know what’s crazy? A four-day work week has been proven to be more productive and cheaper without even paying anyone less. This has been the case for a long time, but we’re not doing it. It is something incredibly easy to implement and even at its worst it gives the same productivity AND a three-day weekend. It’s the easiest choice in the world and we aren’t making it. Productivity isn’t the point, it’s control and abuse.

Meanwhile, you ask a near trillionaire to pay even 10% taxes and they act like you’re actively breaking their legs and throwing them onto the street to starve.

Bro, we’re so much more productive in every way than we’ve ever been. Every year it’s another tool and more promises that if we all buy into this billionaire’s new toy we’ll never work again and every year it’s more of the same. The only thing that ever comes true is that the rich take more and return less. Our productivity has never resulted in fewer work hours for the same or more money. The best we got was a reduction in work hours that people fought died over.

You’re cheering on and funding a future that wants to erase you, not benefit you. You cannot build the future you claim will exist if you start with a rotten foundation which can’t even offer more a couple days sick leave if you’re lucky, and which treats human beings as tools for the enrichment of a select handful of lazy parasites. You’re gunna build your replacement and then, as has always happened, you’ll ask for your reward and they’ll show you the fuckin’ door. How many pieces of media show that same naivety right before the scientist who made the villain strong gets used as a punching bag so no one else will benefit? It’s a tale as old as time, a lesson we cannot seem to learn.

Damn, someone’s defensive. I don’t really think there’s anything I could say that would be more embarrassing than what you’ve done to yourself there so uh, yea thanks, champ.

“She needs to be out doing good” and ya’ll seriously need to understand that for every halfway decent Dem poltician there are 30 horrible ones, and the people in charge have literally complained about the recent slight shift to the left. She’s not going to be doing good and even if she kept her mouth shut she wasn’t going to be doing anything good.

Here in Canada, a bunch of fuckheads voted against the Conservatives Party but instead of going all-in on the progressives they voted for the Liberal Party and we now have a hyper-conservative dickhead in charge whose only advantage over the other party is not openly hating minorities. They’re perfectly ok with keeping the status quo, though, which includes leaving thise people out to dry.

The US population needs to start making demands. No more voting against the most evil, they need to start voting FOR good.
