Freebie to accelerationists: it'd be easy to rapidly speed up AI progress by putting a little guy in there like we have in our own minds

I like thinking about how a fox jumping over a dog could never know that that situation uses every letter of the latin alphabet. It makes me see my most mundane activities differently. Like maybe "the tall man overcooked the basmati rice" is a pangram in the language E.T. speaks

the history of the domestic cat is the history of a species’s encounter with an alien superintelligence in which that superintelligence is quickly aligned and its forces used to secure superabundance and lasting prosperity

Everyone shut up about Gen Z, Millennial, Boomer, Generation X. Generations are fake, a branch of astrology invented by Strauss and Howe to sell books. There is only one generation: the human generation. Our differences are racial.

Honestly I don’t get why more leftists don’t find AI risk and the fight to control/pause/regulate AI totally invigorating

Here’s a technology that might revolutionize production in a way that will *materially* drive class consciousness—if they build AGI, it will make everyone acutely aware of their position as wage laborers, and it will create a visible, concentrated, tiny number of enemies in the form of the Big Tech firms. It is the classic case of heightening the contradictions.

It’s exactly the kind of historical rupture that could lead to a democratic revolution, contingent on building an effective movement.

I’d argue it’s already starting to happen with public concern about AI and datacenter opposition. Still embryonic, but it’s happening *without* us leading because the material conditions are changing and that is changing workers’ self concept as a class.

Getting involved in this fight is as perfect an opportunity as we’re gonna get

[deleted an earlier version of this and reposted with some additional words for clarity—it’s the fight *against* AI that should be an invigorating opportunity]

[Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders]

I will soon be introducing a bill to give the public a 50% ownership stake in the largest AI companies in America.

This would guarantee that the trillions created by AI are used to improve the lives of all of us — and block oligarch decisions that harm the American people.

The first AI Slop artists to chart being in the genres of country and contemporary Christian music is honestly one of the least surprising things to happen this year

Kids are going to be nihilistic about learning so long as capitalism is their context.

It's possible to promote cautious and practical self-protective behavior without victim-blaming with the simple trick of never invoking these things *in the context* of a transgression has already occurred.
