This is a Dengist community in favor of Bashar al-Assad with no information that can lead to the arrest of Hillary Clinton, our fellow liberal and queen. This community is not ironic. We are Marxists-Leninists.

See this GitHub page for a collection of sources about socialism, imperialism, and other relevant topics.

This community is for posts about Marxism and geopolitics (including shitposts to some extent). Serious posts can be posted here or in /c/GenZhou. Reactionary or ultra-leftist cringe posts belong in /c/shitreactionariessay or /c/shitultrassay respectively.

We have a Matrix homeserver and a Matrix space. See this thread for more information. If you believe the server may be down, check the status on status.elara.ws.

I don't see why not. If these tools are developed and owned by the workers then they would serve the proletariat.

Tbh maybe I should’ve specified, I was more talking about like AI as in would conscious digital beings be considered proletarian, obviously that’s very different from AI tools, so in my original intended context your reply sounds like slavery but obviously you didn’t have that context because I failed to provide it lol

Conscious digital beings don’t exist, so you’re asking a speculative question about something that’s already very speculative. IMO it’s premature to give it serious consideration.

[–] Loki@lemmygrad.ml 2 points 5 hours ago

Idk why it shouldn’t be considered, it’s far more plausible than artificial superintelligence and there’s thousands of papers, books, etc on that.

I think the only reason why it hasn’t really been considered in the AI research space is because it doesn’t really pose an existential threat to humanity.

Also depending on how you define consciousness and its ability to exist in a simulation that fruit fly that had its brain copied identically and simulated might disagree with you lol

Have you previously posted on the topic of AI before? There's been a few write ups by some very intelligent comrades here that personally opened my eyes on AI. I seem to recall your name popping up in the debates but I can't find any of the write ups I found convincing.

Yogthos has definitely posted on the subject before in favor of proletarian use of AI, but not sure of which post you have in mind. CriticalResist also has a good essay on the conversations surrounding AI, on ProleWiki: https://en.prolewiki.org/wiki/Essay:Intellectual_property_in_the_times_of_AI
