  • My plan for old age is the collapse of civilization.

    Joking aside, I don't consider pensions "passive income" as I've been actually paying money all my working life. I do consider the whole pension system a joke and a scam most of the time and it can actually be exploitative, but at least those in it typically have to be productivity most of their lives. But ultimately the pension system should also be scrapped and replaced by a straight up social net funded by the state, if we're talking about staying in capitalism.

  • It might make people think you're an llm though. Might be better to have a dedicated account for bot stuff maybe?

  • My point is, even a racist bridge has uses as a bridge. The solution is not to tear down the bridge, it's to address the systematic racism. Likewise with GenAI tech, we are not involved in making it, nor do we promote that the way it was created was correct. We just say that people using it are not necessarily reinforcing the problem, anymore than a random pedestrian crossing that bridge would be reinforcing racism.

    Yes, the way the tech was created and is being used, is problematic; an imperfect creation of a deeply flawed system. I'm not disputing that. I'm disputing that any and all uses of an imperfect creation are by necessity "fascist"

  • AI as a Fascist Artifact

    Jump

  • I feel the author routinelly conflates technology with technological implementations to make their point. For example, they conflate surveillance, with camera equipment and they conflate bridges, with city planning. What me and others are pointing out, is that we're not hostile to GenAI as the technology (like cameras, bridges) but we're absolutely against the popular (i.e. corporate) GenAI implementations.

    I feel there's no harm whatsoever to use GenAI to personal gratification. Games, Porn, Shortcuts on boring but known tasks etc. But there's absolutely harm to using corporate AI to do so, and there's absolutely harm in using it for purposes outside of it (facts, propaganda, agents etc)

    And yes, any technology built in capitalist systems, will be inevitably corrupted from its inception from those systems. This is not exclusive to GenAI as a technology however.

  • That's also rent-seeking in the form of copyrights btw, but as far as rent-seeking goes, I agree it's the least problematic

  • TMI. Wait until you learn I also run and develop the AI Horde and Fediseer. My profession is in IT infrastructure automation and this is my way of doing mutual aid, so I'm more or less uniquely positioned to do this, but I do admit that I'm a freak.

  • MM and draconic have this sort of "fan club". For some reason, they have pissed off the same kind of chud who keeps making new accounts for this shite.

    Hmm, maybe I should implement a way to only allow trusted instances to comment on some communities. This way it can prevent people abusing instances with lax registration to make these accounts just to post toxic shite. Lemmy 1.0 can't come fast enough so I can finally make plugins

  • It's rich to claim "participate in the exploitation of the working class" through a euphemism, is not political. To continue your bbq analogy, it's like seeing your rich aunt discuss strategies about union busting in her factory during the party, and when you say "hey, maybe unions are actually good" you get called an "asshole" by her spoiled shitlib kid who want to think themselves a lefty.

    The fact of the matter is that the post was inherently political and particularly that statement. Me calling it out doesn't make me an asshole, (and fuck you too btw), nor do we "advance the cause of economic and social reform" by hiding in niche political comms to talk about exploitation, because we might otherwise trigger the libs who moderate us away. We agitate wherever there's injustice, especially when it makes people uncomfortable and if you don't get that, well, "then welcome to knowledge".

    PS: Writing this wall of text is just hobbyless behaviour.
