I am sympathetic to Silicon Valley guys ascribing human-level consciousness to AI because if I had to talk to people from Silicon Valley all day I’d probably have a real low bar for sentience too

Cops feed financial data to some some shitty AI . It tells them to stop a car. They supposedly find pot (which should be legal anyway and is trivial for cops to plant) and jail the guy You have no idea how important it is to stop all this "age verification" bullshit www.404media.co/a-secretive-...

TBH this datacenter stuff happening when in reality we were in dire need to stop emissions makes me think that maybe the powers that be are trying to do a bad end speed run or something.

While CEO's see "AI" as tool to ensure they no longer have to pay/depend on people, workers adopting "AI" get taught that skills they don't have/other professions are worth less. This destruction of worker solidarity and interdisciplinary collaboration is a core function of the "AI" discourse.

It's weird how when Fascist Leader Donald Trump does something fascist as part of his fascist government of the Fascist United States of America. Some people react by saying how that's an example of why "Populism" is wrong.

If you are in a profession which requires confidentiality, the answer is DON'T! State bar associations have already said your chats with AI aren't safe. So even on a personal level, know those chats can be subpoenaed.

I mean sure. The zero-knowledge proofs could be used by sites like discord. But the "age verifier" woulds till have to have your data and it would still be pretty much available for theft by hackers. But more worryingly, these providers would literally just be Palantir and friends.

Oh yeah, it's "Trump's War on Iran". I mean, Congress did nothing to put a halt to it. The military are all in support of it. No judge did anything about it. The press repeats the admin's propaganda. All 4 powers are in support of it. But it is only Trump's War.
