Most importantly “AI” doesn’t exist.
But it’s also worth nothing that absolutism is almost never helpful. I don’t think data, statistics, computers, etc. are inherently evil technologies. It’s the usual problem of how capitalism directs research and development towards violent control instead of liberation.
Kid’s don’t want to build palaces for entrenched insiders selling crappy, overpriced books on outdated topics? I’m shocked.

Art is in the act of creating it.
This is just your opinion.
Not in the final product to be bought and sold on the market.
This isn’t inevitable or necessary.
Personally I enjoy generated art (mostly scifi/fantasy) and I never pay for it.
On the other hand I try to support actual artists because they’re most often struggling under capitalism much more than some person using midjourney or wahtever.
AI isn’t human, so it can’t do anything other than copy or simulate.
There’s no such thing as “AI”.
But computers can also generate art through averaging. It can average the feelings, impact, etc. That’s part of why generated art is popular. It’s still people creating new works from the old. It’s still “art” by any reasonable definition.
Averaging out data is ok in situations where there’s no right answer and it doesn’t matter at all.
Sadly “people” regularly post overt imperial propaganda on Lemmy without much pushback.
The imperial narrative is strong here.
I used Libre Wolf to challenge Mozilla too… somewhat.
The hegemonic narrative is a very narrow narrative that needs constant overbearing reinforcement.
Go ahead and short bitcoin right now. lmao.
(Seriously though wait until it peaks ffs.)
kinda like the stock market
It’s basically the same thing. People cry about crypto being a pyramid scheme without talking about how pyramid schemes are a major foundation of the whole economy. People cry about how crypto isn’t a worthwhile currency while the dollar (ie. paper covered with pictures of slave masters) is constantly losing value.
Yes, the line keeps going up. I don’t understand why people think this is some kind of own. That longass video just gets funnier and more irrelevant as it gets older.
And the picture is about NFTs… At worst they’re like collector plates. Just another grift. Who cares? People buying jpegs of monkeys is not a real problem for me.
The academic publishing grift is based on the same “IP” as proprietary software.
Grift recognize grift.
Casting Doubt On Near-Term AGI
Imagine this is the first time anybody doubted. lol. Zerohedge is a grift.
They’re closely related issues. Zios have been trying to ban TikTok because of the unfiltered coverage of Palestine.
Peak “AI” grifting.
They do this kind of pointless control to distract from their ceaseless service of capital.
It’s hilarious how they think TikTok is gong to steal all our data, while major corporations have already stolen and leaked all our data with complete impunity.
Pretty sure you get a kiddy diddler messing with your kid by going to church.
When they gonna ban church for kids under 16?
The ADL is an anti-semitic organization for depicting jewish people as inherently supportive of colonialism, apartheid, genocide, etc.
They’re completely unreliable and backwards as an accurate gauge of anti-semitism.
