So you agree with me, that AI is not fascist, but at the same time you say that one of goals of fascism is for people to think that AI is not fascist.

Am I reading it right?

You are, in fact, not reading that right.

Let me spell it for you because you apparently fell victim to the previously mentioned attack on education: AI is a tool. Like any tool it is not inherently evil, but the fascists love to take potentially useful tools and turn them around to cause as much suffering as possible. In this case, AI (more specifically LLMs) is used to make people reliant on it by getting them addicted to outsourcing all their problem solving skills while also reducing the value of art and artists of all types so they can take the money that artists would have made and also control 'art' (can't have any pesky artists drawing pictures of people beating the nazis up) all the while sucking up every single data point about you.

If that's all too complicated for you to understand, I guess you could over simplify it as "fascism is when AI"

Does that mean internet is fascist? Search engines? Calculators? Writing?

All of those things outsource your congnitive skills.

Almost nobody is saying that AI art generation is a complete subsitute for conventional art.

Even if all of that were true, it wouldn't make AI fascist, but totalitarian.

Acting as if using an LLM is similar to using a calculator or search engine is a ridiculous comparison and further proves it's not worth engaging with you further
