The alarmism around AI is just a marketing spin.

As @[email protected] wrote: that's "mystical nonsense about spontaneous consciousness arising from applied statistics".

Real problems we face with AI are:

Ghost labor, erosion of the rights of artists, costs of automation, the climate impact of data-centers and the human impact of biased, opaque, incompetent and unfit algorithmic systems.

Can't engage with the actual criticism so you just get all huffy and defensive and try to change the topic.

You gotta get a new script, it's 2024. This shit is boring.

Good retort! I went into deep detail to address your retardation and you just go "nuh uh". At least call me a tech bro or something else to disregard what I actually fucking said.

Cower, Beg, Cry, whatever gets you through the next few years of technology development. It won't stop just because you're outraged and I'm glad it won't.

Do you often just have self-righteous conversations with yourself based on nothing but your own delusions?

Kinda worrying.

Of course he does, he quotes Marcus Aurelius in his profile. May as well just block him and move on.
