I’m suggesting that the choice between industrialization and skilled labor is a false one because China is industrialized and has a skilled labor force. I agree this is because of American owners seeking profit, but it seems the same won’t happen to China now that they’re industrialized.

Deskilling blue collar labor is how America gave China a manufacturing edge. What do you think will be the result of deskilling white collar labor?

Here’s a question: why don’t you take their advice seriously instead of being so sensitive to their manners?

Enshittification is a paradigm shift, but not one we associate with the birth of the internet.

On to your list. Why does misinformation appear after the birth of the internet? Was yellow journalism just a historical outlier?

What you’re witnessing is the “Red Queen hypothesis”. LLMs have revolutionized the scam industry and step 7 is an AI arms race against and with misinformation.

LLMs are not like the birth of the internet. LLMs are more like what came after when marketing took over the roadmap. We had AI before LLMs, and it delivered high quality search results. Now we have search powered by LLMs and the quality is dramatically lower.

I can’t take made up curves seriously

I’m surprised it didn’t end as a crypto announcement

Because shit for brains says we just need to train our AI models until they’re sentient. So that means we need all our workers reviewing the output of AI as much as possible until that happens.

Until AI can sexually assault their workers, can it really be said they’re qualified for the position?

Lol, yeah. Keep paying us developers to write that philosopher stone. For writing general AI my rate is 100x because it’s magic you can’t understand without being able to write code.

Billionaires are often referred to as dragons because they horde wealth. A Guillotine that could know the difference and decide to only harm billionaires would be a technological marvel.

Real AGI is a Guillotine that only removes the heads of dragons.

Protest can also be a form of art and memetic transmission. Don’t be so quick to dismiss others.

Sure, which is why installing it is largely a protest. I don’t think US tiktokkers are going to seriously learn pinyin so they can properly tag their post.

There’s already a mass exodus to RedNote, and I gotta say, I love that there are no ads.

Yeah, because LLMs have shown they understand language and aren’t bullshitting us. /s

Like I get this might generate new leads to explore, but to say it’s a virtual cell as if the model is somehow self-consistent is malpractice.

The revolutionary potential of a media platform is inverse to how mainstream it has become. Lemmy and mastadon don’t need to be big to be influential because the people who show up to those platforms are (relatively) engaged in their AFK communities.

I am so down to read that. Thx for the book rec

Zuck is fine with anticompetitive actions, he just thinks you need to InOvAtE to earn the right.

I mean there has always been illegal speech, we just don’t usually call it censorship.
