  • This is a side effect of too much doomscrolling.

    Start of the article shows the genuine reaction is there: “Children giggle as young people flash their smartphones to film robots carrying plates of freshly prepared meals on their inbuilt trays to deliver to diners in a busy eatery in Kenya’s capital.”

    I cant say I disagree though, this is putting pressure on some of the twisted dynamics we live by indeed but i think your question doesn’t really work, exploiting people isnt the point, generating value with no regard of other life is and robotics make good slaves. The real issue is how will humans survive in an economy where there labor can no longer be used to obtain a share of the earth-pie.

    What we can do is be vocal about normalizing universal basic income which has proven to work. This way we can still be hyped about the technology. Its going to be a matter of either we do get there or we wont live to tell the difference.



  • Well you could always just use the proper name. The cc license in question IS anti commercial. A great deal of ai is opens source and non commercial and to those cc is fair game. But if commercial is where you draw the line then envoking this license may do.

    Calling it “anti-ai” when its not removes power from your argument. Your invoking something that does not exit and linking to something seemingly unrelated.

    Now the bigger question i have, have had since i have seen people do this.

    Why is there still not an actual anti-ai license? Seems obvious that there is a need for it? I dont know much about how licenses are created but it strikes me as odd.





  • I had no idea and i thought i was relatively up to date with new gen technology. I thought the foldable phones that came out where more an experimental proof of concept of the first instance of such technology but not that whole flexible panels where possible.

    Even just the fact an oled display can be this thin is completely new to me.







  • “don’t enter any commands you see online without looking at it first. You can’t trust everyone”

    This has somewhat become a staple idea of mine. People trust others online way too easily. Ai isn’t all that different in this but its more obvious to us that there is something to be scared about the uncanny valley.

    What it tends to come down to is capacity for personal critical thinking which we should aim to foster more in future generations.

    Maybe i assume too much that programmer-minded people naturally come with such skills for troubleshooting and will be capable of responsible ai interactions?






  • Unintentional Strawman misses the point.

    A economy is but a subsystem to serve an organized society.

    Not every society requires a economy, there are many ways to organize, the original foundational ideas go back to ancient greece. Read up about them.

    The people with wealth and power have all the insensitive to keep things as they are. They own the planets resources, the means of productions. They loby or laws.

    To think were waiting on one person to have “a better idea” for things to change is incredibly naive.

    I don’t know how the system will change how the next one will look but the current one is mathematically not sustainable for another century.
