There’s no point having a discussion with people like me that are intractable when it comes to the technology and are acutely aware of the USA capitalist ruling class the atrocities they commit and enable with people that are unable an unwilling to understand what a model is, and are approaching computer science like a luddite.
The USA capitalists are having you lick their boots when you think that “AI” = ChatGPT. You’re not ‘chatting’ with anything. You, me, and many others, are constantly falling for their marketing shit all the time.
If you can differentiate between a stack of PS3s that made a ‘super computer’ to try to predict what the weather will be tomorrow and the USA building a datacenter, poisoning your water, denying you electricity, stealing your capital, surveiling you, and influencing your decisions, then we can definitely sit together and use our brains to dismantle the infrastructure of oppression. Your enemy is not ‘conversation simulators’, its capitalism.
Thanks. I feel so weird about AI. I used to abhor it, but I’ve recently moved and changed professional environments and I’m surrounded by people who use it. So I tried Claude and it turned out to be a fantastic tool. But there’s just so much wrong with using it, to me. Fucks the climate, massive resource drain, in the current capitalist system it will not create more wealth, just lower labor costs, and by using it I feel like I legitimise it and there’s all the stuff about how its really messing up a bunch of people and kids.
I know it’s always been like that with new tech (there’s articles from teachers mad when kids went from writing on chalkboards to just writing on paper), but - like with all new tech - there are undeniably many issues with it and, especially, how it is implemented. I wish I could just tune out from that kind of stuff.

I think you replied to the wrong person? Otherwise this is the strangest non sequitor I’ve experienced yet
You’re right. I did the stupid.
I was so confused. Where was the reply supposed to go?

Its a conversation that goes exactly as you would expect.
