It’s more than anti intellectualism though.
Many people are just sick of being forced into a society that only values productivity, gives nothing back to you for your efforts, and expects more time out of your week than you get with your family.
AI hasn’t solved any of that, it’s made all of it worse.
LLMs have accelerated people’s worst aspects.
And your comment is an incredibly reductive view of people who have already been effected negatively by AI.
You are adding to the same bullshit you claim to be making a smart comment against.
Try again.
Her on the way to the voting booth
I need a second comment to express how fucking stupid you are.
It’s not even close to an established fact that humans are hardwired to be productive.
You just lied out your ass. You are such a disingenuous person.
" you can turn that stuff off"
Can I not purchase it in the first god damn place? “Sure you can but it only lasts 4 years now or just when the warranty expires!”
Let’s not even get started on the obfuscation of fixing your own shit, right to repair exists for a reason dumbass. Parts are barely available, manuals non-existent, and no one on staff knows how to do shit 90% of the time.
It’s like you can’t think more than one move ahead and you’ve never spent a single day in the real world.
“Let’s put this extra tech in and charge everyone more! Fuck letting them opt out!”
You’re a corporate apologist who’d sooner sell their fellow man down the river for $50 and a pat on the back from your daddy manager.
You are lost.
That people can think we only exist to be productive is a sad fucking state.
Fix yourself, you are the problem with this world.
You will optimize everything until you sit there and wonder why the fuck you’re still unhappy, completely missing the point of everything in your life.
You’ve been convinced by people with infinite greed, that greed is hardwired into us.
It’s this belief that is leading the world into regression after decades of progress.
If only people had reading comprehension.
This is so obvious.
I am sad for this nation…
Convenience is king for people who forgot that life isn’t about being productive.
Y’all are weird and I’m tired of pretending otherwise.
Take a minute and enjoy something for once.
“Convenience is king” is exactly why the world is so fucked up right now.
Kind of wild that as software has literally gotten worse by locking features behind awful subscriptions, stealing your data, spying on you, etc, that you defend it as better than ever.
Wild that as most appliances now have Wifi or other bullshit features for no reason and also breakdown after 3 years you say everythings better! Planned obsolescence is good I guess???
Do you even live in the real world? Were you born yesterday? You are outright lying and anyone who lives in the real world can feel it.
CEC barely works half the time. Plugging in my vynils analogy cables NEVER FAILS.
Don’t be so disingenuous, it’s embarrassing. Boots don’t need licking.
Fair enough!
I’ve been vocally against Linus AI advocacy, but I do understand all the points you make here.
I don’t like that a lot of stupid people will take Torvalds use and embrace of AI as gospel that AI is some be all end all.
I also LOATH that he is indirectly benefitting fascist corporations that committed the largest theft in human history.
But the code is good 🤷♂️
To say I am conflicted, is an understatement.
Yea that’s my whole argument. We lost very important things for some bullshit.
Should be an option, not mandatory.
Nah hold on.
Manufacturers stole repairability and the headphone jack from us under the guise of waterproofing and now you make fun of people who use the feature?!?
If I had to give that shit up then I want the damn feature. Otherwise waterproof speakers exist and we never had to give up anything.
Failed to stop?
Is the writer fuckin stupid?
He CAUSED most of the current US inflation that the previous admin had made progress on getting under control.
Can we at least be accurate with the fucking news.
