exactly how i feel. literally said something very similar to my wife last night. I fucking hate AI. I think activist group are going to starting popping up hard against it. And if they aren't already, they really should. This shit is destroying our world. The only people this is helping is billionaires.
Capitalism is destroying the world. We need to rise up against that. The AI bullshit is just one manifestation of the whole world being geared to serve capital and the handful of people that control it.
Soon we'll have nothing left to eat but the rich.
But they said we should eat cake if we have no bread anymore!!1!!!1!11!
Unbounded capitalism is for sure.
I would say "AI" makes a good poster child for what to fight against. It embodies a lot of what's wrong.
But we need capitalism to save us from capitalism!
