Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

I am not specifically hating on the UK here I just don't understand how this is ever going to work out as anything other than beaucratic sabotage under the guise of magic I mean AI.

It won't "work out" for you or your constituents. It will only ever "work out" for rich fucks able to pay the troll toll. Don't want your beliefs magically shadowbanned? Don't want to be banned from "museums" for being a troublesome person?

Then don't let the current ruling class define any of this. Never mind how they'll force same-think on everyone else...

Similarly, if you don't want shitty, inaccurate, and easily corruptible "defense", then PAY ATTENTION to what they pretend they're defending from!

"AI" IS NOT INTELLIGENT. Period. Ever. Ever. Regardless of how much compute you throw at it. Period.

The only thing this will do will be to make it easier for the ruling class to direct a lower class of dumbasses. That's it. That's the point; to make you the 21'st century WAAAGs.
