I’ve read enough Marx to know the base dictates the shape of the superstructure which includes technology like LLMs.

What about planting trees to offset carbon? When does an artificial forest start to count as Geo engineering?

As if this technology isn’t a product and in service of capitalist relations. Go read Chomsky to see how CNC machines were designed in a way to strengthen capitalist control. gAI is being developed with the same business logic: eliminate jobs at the cost of quality and robustness.

Those who society depends on most are the least free to take time to protest

Because she wasn’t angry or scared. She was chill and was getting out of their way. He got angry the she wasn’t given him the satisfaction of acting angry or scared, like he wasn’t a threat to be feared. So the fixed that, he showed us who he really is.

Also cures climate change, the global pedophile network, most wars, and that’s just the start!

If they are allowed to train on OSS code then the same is true of proprietary code, they use the same legal mechanisms. Get your code off GitHub…

The fact we don’t know who did that murder is wild. We deputized a bunch of murderers and we’re telling them they have absolute immunity.

I’m not wasting my energy guessing what form their evil plans will take.

I find it helps to ask what is the intention. If it is to just unload negative feelings and there is no effort to build something after dumping those emotions, then the intention is to dissipate energy. IMHO it is better to hold those emotions and unpack them in a space where the energy can be harnessed into something more useful than venting. Even a rage room is healthier and more productive for instance.

Because AI does nonsensical things that would require extra effort for a human to do, in this case the lady has a soccer purse and a soccer ball

If you could repeat the same one word response 3-times in a row it would really help in training the next crop of AI achieve sentience and avoid “thought loops”.

You require documentation so you can check if they have a criminal past. If there’s no documentation then treat them like someone on parole and give them an ankle monitor. It’s not rocket science, we just our politicians’ job security depends on not fixing problems.

Also you have absolute immunity just in case there is any friendly fire

Oh, so there’s a 40% chance he’s a wife beater as well.

Just remember, when you accuse others on the Internet it comes off as a confession. Happy to let you expand the conversation but if you only take that opportunity to accuse others of being controlling, well that’s certainly interesting and might be tied to your attraction to generative AI.

Why do you need to imagine what you claim is already happening?

If by taking over the conversation you mean giving my own thoughts, then I am as guilty as you are. No one of forcing you to respond.

I’m not some bot where asking “kindly” will garner a sycophantic agreement. You are talking to people who can make their own value calls in regards to meaningful context, unlike a bot. But the important thing is that you didn’t disagree with what I said, and like you I care about being perceived as correct on this matter.

This isn’t about you being correct, if that was the case you would focus on your argument instead of giving an empty retort. I suspect this is your attempt to control the conversation. What is your intention with letting us know your motivation is to be perceived as being correct?
