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.

I watched the video included with the article. One of those poor, poor seniors was asked whether she was kept informed. She said no, saying she only gets updates from the internet and her Facebook.
I'm not the first to ever say it, but there's a clear lack of infrastructure when someone still turns to the very same company's platform for updates and barely knows what's going on. There's no respect for community here, no involvement of stakeholders, no thought to the people who live there. For what? A corporate installation that may be built on fuddy duddy accounting to keep up appearances for an AI Bubble?
Its by design. This is another gilded age.
You saw the same video where the kids can't even use the playground because the truck drivers can't stay on the road
