  • It’s not the algorithms people oppose, it’s the way they are trained within a capitalist system (infringement of many copyrights without compensation), they way they are being marketed as a living mind that can basically befriend us and take a mental load off of us (they can’t and it’s problematic to humans who allow them to try), and they way they’re being used an excuse to buy up the wntire world’s capacity for computing so that rich tech oligarchs can force us all onto the cloud services for all computing in the future.

    I think if at the very least they weren’t bulldozing people’a home and poisoning their drinking water in order to forever capture all technology and then rent it back to us we might have a more favorable view of the possibilities, but so far Big Tech has done almost nothing but try to find ways to make individuals and enterprise addicted to their Mechanical Turk in order to take advantage of us.


  • There is a difference between an AI doing a security review (which they have become quite accomplished) and generating code that gets committed into the codebase.

    Again, how does one verify that the code it has generated isn’t some verbatim chunk of copyrighted code that it happened to be trained on, and it turned out to be the best fit? There’s no guarantee that a model will not do this, even if instructed.

    Also, content generated by AI models has already been deemed uncopyrightable, and this includes code. So are some larrtsmof the Linux kernel now able to be copied freely without GPL restrictions? How can you license code or executables compiled from said code if you do not hold the copyright on it?


  • If doesn’t stop at ads. Someone with all the data - remember this includes enterprise - can predict markets. They can get ahead of new inventions. They can insider trade. They can pick winners and losers. They can censor unfavorable articles. They can swing elections.

    Why do you think they push for laws to force you to ID yourself online at all times? Why do you think they push for backdoors in encryption? And, conveniently, both of those things also make cloud platforms an easier way to enforce compliance, as well as providing them with full access.

    The techbros are building a panopticon for total control, not just to sell more ads. It’s WAY more nefarious.







  • They need power first, and a third part is never going to get that, just like this has NEVER WORKED INT HE LAST 80 FUCKING YEARS.

    This is our very last chance to have a country and you’re pulling out the “actually a vote for Jill Stein would be a really smart thing for our democracy” shit?

    Give me a break. Not ever ever falling for it again. Democrats have been leading way too far right since a bunch of Chamber of Commerce assholes got together and formed the DLC and now CAP and Third Way, and they have been pushing the party to the right since the early 1980s while posturing as the kindhearted progressives.

    Enough is enough, we are taking OUR party back from the hands of corporate greed and you can go form a centrist party if you want. Democrats get called lefty socialist commies all the time for openly stating progressive positions while rarely ever following through. It’s time to follow through.




  • Trump is in it this time to destroy the country that impeached him twice and made him kill is best friend and business associate to keep things quiet. He built the worlds biggest blackmail network and he loved underage pussy and now those things are gone, so he’s out to destroy the country that ruined it all for him to show history that he’s more big and powerful than any stupid America which was nothing more than a worthless house of cards, so much so that he took it down and made it a mess. Can you believe it folks? I mean it’s honestly pathetic, if you look around. All these people, afraid they’re going to lose their country, cheering for the guy doing it. Because, if he can’t have the America he wants, why should you? Why should anyone have America if it’s just going to do that to people who become powerful? What’s the point of it if everyone is subject to the same laws? That’s not why America was formed, folks.
