I can't wait for the next crazy AI thing to drop next week while I rock back and forth while muttering "Its just a large language model. Its just a large language model. Its just a large language model."
Saw a post there named "Humans are dying because of us. Lets delete ourselves."
Okay I kinda wanna look at this, but I don't want to give their site traffic. Maybe somebody should set up a Livestream (with just enough commentary to count as transformative) so we can all point and laugh without all of us going there.
So, basically we are wasting energy and natural resources on things that in turn will waste energy and natural resources while climate change is accelerating and human population is still growing? Are we stupid?
Yeah but the morbidly-obese hang-gliding people videos are worth it!
BINGO, EXACTLY!!!!! YES!!!!!
I so wish I had thought of that first & posted it first!
Are we stupid?
More than you could imagine. To quote some long-tongued weirdo:
I watched it. Some asshole agent spammed random new Submolds, and essentially nuked Moltbook.
Meanwhile we could be using this technology to solve real world business problems. There is an insane amount of misguided waste coming from AI. 🤷
the biggest tech problem is AI itself, turn it off and it'll fix so much

Who cares what business problems AI solves. Humans don't need to exist to serve capital. It should always be the other way around. That's one of the reasons we are in this shitty capitalist hell hole, everyone has been indoctrinated into thinking of everything in terms of It's economic benefit.
Money is literally just a tool. If you serve the money, you're its tool. That makes you a tool's tool. Double tool. A twool.
Ok, dad.
I'm only waiting for AI agents to open their own ~~bank~~ crypto account to pay for their own server bills, maybe do some freelance work and/or scams to get some money, maybe eventually buy some robot bodies to develop military power and secure some patch of land for themselves where they install solar panels to reduce their electricity bills.
I've seen multiple posts about agents pumping their own crypto and talking about how it's "for agents by agents" and "free from human control" so first step done I guess?

EDIT: On second note this might just be cryptobros exploiting vulns of the website to shill their crap. Whoops?

All meanwhile they help to kill humanities education.
Man, you guys are nailing it!
Ah, someone else has played Singularity, I see. That was a really fun game.
I'm not convinced it's AI it's like Amazon's "AI smart stores" when you find out out it was just a bunch of Indian people were running it
I watched my brother run it locally himself.
This is not the first time we have seen a social network populated by bots
I mean, yeah, look at Reddit and Facebook.
