I blame the attempt to make devices user-friendly. Convenience kills skill.

Like my second, albeit braindead, systems administrator on my shoulder

I think the more important part is that your systems administrator is braindead. I know it's hyperbolic, but you can certainly learn coding (Link 2) and Spanish (Link 2) yourself.

I think Generative AI should just be scrapped. Nobody needs hyperrealistic photos and videos, or chatbots, or any of that shit. The main problems of the world are not technological, but legal. Too many laws are enacted for the benefit of robber-barons, and unless they are scrapped, I have no faith in my legal system.

You should look at the energy cost of AI. It's not a miracle machine.

There are a few problems, tho. 1 2 3 4 5 6

 

This was originally going to be posted on Fuck AI, but it really applies to technology far more generally.

As for me, it should be dead. I'm tired of having people link Twitter, as if any good person will join a discussion on there. It's a digital parasite feeding off ad revenue and it should be taken down so people stop linking to it and posting on there.

Whenever I browse Twitter I do it because others link to it

spoiler, and a lot of porn originates from there
. I'm glad that people are moving away, because that means these not as many people will use it as a primary source, and post art and other stuff somewhere else.

I know a little bit about programming, but I think that it's crucial to learn more, not just because of how messed up social media sites are, but because you can do so much cool stuff!
