OK, you get a point for responding.
What I’d like for billionaires to hear is that the vast majority of world sees chatbots and the impact they’re having as toxic. The elite class believes they have special knowledge that gives you the right to shove AI down our throats anyway.
But it is not a PR problem. It is not about your message. It’s about the rational pros and cons of making an existential economic, environmental, and cognitive bet on slop generators becoming sentient.
The fact that the industry oscillates between fantasies of abundance and doomer scenarios of extinction events doesn’t help. Your proposal sounds like: “Either it will take your job or kill us all. We’re in a hurry to find out which one whether you like it or not.”
In reality, you’ve collectively tied half the economy to what amounts to a nifty software feature—a search engine for large datasets that uses sycophantic natural language as an interface—that happens to drive people who use it half crazy.
It is not a revolution, it is an addictive crutch that is having dire impacts on our ability to learn, think, and do our own jobs.
Lastly, I want you to see the massive bubble you’ve ALREADY created, and realize when this goes south, it’s not you who’s going to get hurt, it’s the rest of us.
And when that happens, it will get very ugly.
@tigerbygenes@EWErickson Yea and most people can see through you cock-gobbling trump. How dare he exercise his freedom of speech and critical thinking skills...
Things most Americans agree on:
Groceries cost too much.
Tariffs suck and make no sense.
Congress and Presidents shouldn’t trade stocks.
The debt is a mess.
The border should be secure, but legal immigration is good.
Endless wars are stupid, especially ones that nobody wants and have never been explained.
Americans are exhausted.
AI is like my new best friend that also might be trying to take my job, my ability to think for myself, and my humanity in the process. Yo like I love you, but WTF, but I still love you.
Diversity is actually awesome! The opposite is boring AF.
Canadians are super fucking cool.
Mexicans are chill.
Putin isn’t a good guy looking out for America’s best interest. Rocky IV and Miracle are great movies.
Good neighbors are a blessing.
Freedom of religion and coexistence without having to blow each other up is probably a good idea.
We all question, are we alone in the universe?
We all fuck up along the way.
Epstein didn’t hang himself.
The Trumps and Epstein were best friends for decades. It’s like Bert trying to tell us Ernie was just an acquaintance in the same social scene on Sesame Street back in the day.
The Cowboys suck. Go Birds!
Things we’re told to fight about:
Me.
Laptop.
Vaccines.
Transgenders in sports.
Pronouns.
That’s the joke.
Artificial intelligences do not undergo experiences, do not possess a body, do not feel joy or pain, do not mature through relationships, and do not know from within what love, work, friendship or responsibility mean. Nor do they have a moral conscience, since they do not judge good and evil, grasp the ultimate meaning of situations, or bear responsibility for consequences. They may imitate or even simulate, but they do not understand what they produce, for they lack the affective, relational, and spiritual perspective through which human beings grow in wisdom. #MagnificaHumanitas
NYT out with a jaw dropping investigative report on the Commodity Futures Trading Commission. 60 Minutes reported last Sunday on some of this, too. The NYT report is a must-read, the 60 Minutes report should then be watched. 1/3
They loved Marjorie Taylor Greene, now they hate her.
They loved Thomas Massie, now they hate him.
They loved Lauren Boebert, now they hate her.
They made fun of Biden for nodding off ("Sleepy Joe), now they ignore Trump outright falling asleep.
They put "I Did That" Biden stickers on high gas prices, now they ignore gas prices being even higher.
They bragged about Trump being the no wars President, now they support war.
They bashed Biden for sending money to Ukraine, now they ignore Trump sending money to both Ukraine and Israel.
They demanded the Epstein files, now they bash anyone asking for the Epstein files.
To be a MAGA is to be a slave.
Not physically, but mentally.
They stand for nothing.
We're up against people who stand for nothing.
And with the most misplaced confidence you've ever seen, they try to tell us whats-what.
We shouldn't even acknowledge these people.
The Trump supporters that remain are mentally too far gone.
I don't even want to argue with them anymore.
@venom1s That's not what she's insinuating at all. You have no idea the struggle some women go through with breastfeeding. Pick a different battle, incel.
@JackieBrunton3@CRUEL_K1D@SuperTalkNews You're right, thank you for calling me out. This should be non-partisan. Let daylight shine on these monsters. Here's a list of the last 35 years:
