So, like, everything? I've talked about the problems and shit AI will cause on us and your only response consistantly was "Yeahhhh but if we completely ban my precious AI then we wont have all of it's nice things! Better to wait until capitalism is magically solved". Then the problems that weren't economics-related you handwaved away. Please illuminate me on a problem you think is real, caused by AI, and that you would be willing to regulate within the bounds of our current system?
I've argued against your mentality and the mentality of the people that always show up on posts concerned about AI to defend it. I've even responded to specific phrases you said. What else do you even want?
If you don't want people to feel threatened by AI, maybe be willing to fix its threats? Maybe don't just go to something people find concerning and say "we can't dare to do anything about this!" and try to reframe it as some sort of tragic prevention by the ignorant masses?
That means nothing to me. Those are just words. Your actions have been vehemently defending AI and trying to convince me that curtailing it is pointless, while also trying to appear concerned about its threats. Those are completely contradictory positions that you held now, and that's what I pointed out. I don't care what you have been doing for years.
When have I ever obbligated you to respond to me? I've never hidden that this topic and people who think like you make me angry. If you didn't want to deal with it you could have just ignored me.
It does make me angry. It makes me angry to see so many people be threatened so unfairly. It makes me angry to see people not care about that and prefer seeing further sophistication of a thoughtless algorithm over lives, but at least those people are honest. Dishonesty is what makes me livid. Those that have the same attitude but know they'd sound awful if they said it straight forwardly, so they try to find a hip and cool thing to parade as. It's totally anti-capitalist to not want to stop capitalist corporations abusing workers to replace them bro, trust me.
