A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

My main concerns are resources and labor. We're already struggling with getting off of dirty fuels and now we have this enormous demand to meet, plus water reserves are going to become more and more stressed. The interests of capital always wins over the needs of people especially in America where quite literally our economy now hinges on the success of AI companies.
As for labor, again from the US perspective, human life has no "value" to the ruling class if it cannot labor and produce a profit for others. As AI takes more and more jobs, people will not be taken care of, they'll be left to suffer in poverty. Eventually the AI systems will become better integrated into better robotic systems and then the job loss spreads way past "office work" and an enormous amount of jobs are lost.
I don't have a very bright view for the future to be honest. The interests of capital always win. :/
