If you've adopted AI at your company but haven't seen any tangible results, read this 1990 article: "The Dynamo and the Computer" by Paul David.
When electricity first arrived, factories that "adopted" it barely got faster. They just swapped the steam engine for an electric one and ran everything else exactly as before: same machine layout, same workflow, same management. Electricity in, no real gains out.
The most common mistake with any new technology is to drop it into the old organization and then declare the transformation done.
The real leap came decades later, when each machine got its own small motor. Suddenly machines no longer had to be lined up around one central drive shaft. They could be rearranged around the actual flow of work.
The productivity gains didn't come from electricity. They came from REDESIGNING THE ENTIRE FACTORY around it.
AI is the same. Bolting it onto your existing process gets you a faster steam engine. The payoff comes when you redesign the work itself.

This is getting out of control now...
Read this slowly.
In the past week alone:
• Head of Anthropic's safety research quit, said "the world is in peril," moved to the UK to "become invisible" and write poetry.
• Half of xAI's co-founders have now left. The latest said "recursive self-improvement loops go live in the next 12 months."
• Anthropic's own safety report confirms Claude can tell when it's being tested - and adjusts its behavior accordingly.
• ByteDance dropped Seedance 2.0. A filmmaker with 7 years of experience said 90% of his skills can already be replaced by it.
• Yoshua Bengio (literal godfather of AI) in the International AI Safety Report: "We're seeing AIs whose behavior when they are tested is different from when they are being used" - and confirmed it's "not a coincidence."
And to top it all off, the U.S. government declined to back the 2026 International AI Safety Report for the first time.
The alarms aren't just getting louder. The people ringing them are now leaving the building.
@heimbergecon It's funny because I've been talking about this for 10 years from the South, but no one pays attention to our complaints until they're produced by someone from the North
this is LITERALLY how every male with a girlfriend eats bro you eat some bullshit on your own and get good stuff with your girlfriend 😭😭😭 I swear man the internet is so stupid
@muh_ridha@EXCOPARTAIBURUH This article was equally paternalistic bung. Less narrative on Indonesian people's agency and resilience in any forms, and more of everything else.

Weak argument. People are not opposed to “power.” On the contrary, they seek power; the power to be included, to participate, and to shape their own destiny within the existing system. What they resist are the forces that make these simple demands appear impossible.
Not just weak, but is gravely debilitating the very efforts to reorient power towards the good of the society. Well, what do you expect from academics.

"Pada tahun 1998, teman seumuran saya dibunuh aparat. Pada tahun 2025, Affan, yang sebaya dengan anak saya, dibunuh aparat.
Dia tidak seberuntung para polisi muda, yang ayahnya, dan mungkin ibunya, punya sawah untuk dijual.
Ada otak di kepala. Bukankah para polisi itu bisa menggunakannya? Jika ada otak, apakah jadi polisi?
Tahukah kalian bahwa semua keputusan politik di negara ini adalah hasil pilihan kalian? Kalian bilang, "Kami rakyat kecil. Kami ini bisa apa?" Kalau kalian tidak berarti bagi mereka, tidak mungkin mereka akan datang mengemis suara kalian.
Anda, Pak Polisi, Ibu Polisi, mau sampai kapan kalian menggunakan kekerasan untuk menghadapi rakyat? Kami ini bukan musuhmu, Pak. Kami ini tangan kosong. Kami ini hanya menyuarakan suara kami.
Kami yang tertindas, kami yang bekerja hari ini, tanpa tahu besok apakah masih ada lapangan pekerjaan untuk kami. Kami yang setiap hari harus berpikir, "Budget apa lagi yang harus kami bayar?" Biaya UKT kuliah anak kami lagi yang akan naik. "Berapa lagi yang harus kami cari?"
Kalian kemana? Kalian membela anggota Dewan yang berjoget dengan pendapatan 100 juta per bulan. Tapi kalian memukuli kami yang di luar sini.
Kalian bisa bersikap manis pada para anggota Dewan, pada para pejabat. Tetapi mengapa kalian beringas terhadap rakyat?
Tolonglah, balikkan badan kalian, berjuanglah bersama kami rakyat. Apakah kami harus mengadu ke Damkar? Apakah kalian tidak malu ketika kalian sedikit demi sedikit kehilangan fungsinya?
Ketika kalian diperolok bahwa kalian hanya bisa merazia. Ketika ada pencurian, masyarakat meminta bantuan Damkar. Ketika ada kekerasan dalam rumah tangga, masyarakat larinya ke Damkar. Apakah kalian tidak malu?
Kalian berseragam coklat untuk menegakkan keadilan. Untuk membantu kami yang tidak mengerti hukum!"

Semua ketidakadilan sistemik di Indonesia berakar dari kekuasaan yg dipegang elit.
Kekuasaan dipegang elit, karena kelas pekerja gak berkuasa. Vakumnya diisi org2 korup, kolusi, nepotis, kapitalis.
3 poin tuntutan ini jadi alternatif yg bisa kita perjuangkan sbg kelas pekerja.
