A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I could not make it any clearer I think the root cause is capitalism. That you're putting the focus elsewhere is exhausting

No I agree. Keep going... Why are you therefore daemonising AI rather than focusing your ire where it belongs?

I'm not demonizing AI. I'm demonizing OpenAI, the shitty company. I'm demonizing CEOs and publishing executives who think they can pass off an inferior product vomited out by a robot record scratching the entire history of human creativity while we get stuck doing bullshit jobs for Uber, DoorDash, Fiverr, and the rest.

You think I have a position on AI that I don't and it's exhausting repetitively explaining to you that I don't think AI is the problem, I think capitalism is. What part of what I am saying is not clear? Why do you want to treat me like a moron luddite for something I don't believe and didn't say? I'm more and more getting the impression that you and I are on the same page about this but you're inserting a position onto me I do not hold.

That's why I said this is exhausting. In fact you're exhausting. In fact, I feel like I'm being a jerk and I'm starting to think you're a jerk
