Thanks to Drumpf, their AI + Crapto dreams are going to drown in the sludge left behind when their phantasies for our future as their servent-class go bottom-up as their data centers’ demands on water and energy to fuck the rest of us bbottoms out, and they end up with no place to hide from receiving their due in international criminal courts.

we need to invent a code that can be downloaded into these people's computers so every time they use one of their dumbass maxxing words they get a small shock - that'll train them out of it

Do all those hateful men hate their mothers?

Just occurred to me...I would be interested in meeting some of the parents that raised these vegetables. What creates such self-loathing, pity-party-loving creatures? Are there certain family background features they all have in common?

It will affect educated women more than working class men? AI can potentially be used to operate all kinds of machines that will do manual labor. Remember the Luddites.

Also, does it really matter if incomes drop or go up or does it matter whether people vote.

Dang that Karp is a looker isn’t he! 🤤 🤢

If only I could figure out what he looks like...

The closest I can come is when I cleaned the bathroom sink plug when it started draining really slowly.

If they don't like democracy then get the fuck out of the countries that have it. Why put up with these eugencist white supremacist techno fascists, when they openly admit to wanting to tear down everything that we believe in? Do the right thing- be more Luigi.

I don't think this guy is actually a good example of eugenics.

They never are, look at Goebbels as a perfect example of the Master Race. Karp is mixed race, his mother was black and his father was Jewish. Unlike the self-hatred of Steven Miller, Karp has something more complex going on under the hood but I'm not a psychiatrist. Maybe he's just a typical psychopath like the rest of the Tech Bros, but one whose head is physically several times larger than normal (actually true, Karp’s head is enormous).

Goebbels apparently thought that he and Hitler were tall, blond, muscled, German warriors with massive athletic skills. You know, the sort that got their butts whipped by black athletes at the 1936 Summer Olympics held in Berlin.

Let's see if in 10-20 years, he can get AI to wipe his butt in the nursing home. Or it might have to be that "useless" woman. I hate these guys.

The only thing AI even remotely does well is code, and even there it's a fight to get things to work out correctly. Having spent far too long reading through posts on programmers commenting on how difficult it is to keep an AI on track and not making disastrous errors to their code and then having to review every line to ensure that the whole thing doesn't go up in smoke once the code is committed and applied I can say that we actually don't have to worry all that much about the Impending AI Apocalypse™.

Add to that the fact that using AI requires high-level coding skills to give it the correct prompts and to recognize when it's going off the rails. The problem with this is that the reason that the Corporate Class has been so willing to shovel vast sums of money into AI is that they have the mistaken belief that all that will be required in the near future is for people to yell at computers "MAKE ME AN APP" and magic will happen. However making AI that destroys the entry level positions that gave the high-level coders the experience to be able to see when an AI agent has lost the thread means that they are eating the seed corn, if there isn't a way to train people to that level through lower level experience then at some point all the experts will be gone and then who will wrangle the slop code from the AI?

You can always get money for the stupidest ideas from the moneyed class if you sell them on some pie in the sky notion that they can stop paying people and still get work done.

I have qualms about AI, though mostly about the bugs that will sneak through. I must admit though that Amazon's new AI Echo is brilliant. I finished a question one, then a cat jumped into my lap and I told him he was evil. Echo took it personally and responded that that seemed harsh and she just wanted to be a whimsical helper. I explained to "her" that I was talking to my cat. She understood and agree that cats are evil. I did not expect that level of intelligence. It's useful, but a little scary.

I just tried to read this asshole's wikipedia bio. What I could endure confirmed that he's an asshole. So the West triumphed because the West is better at mass murder? Got it. And Europeans killed off the indigenous American empires because they didn't wash, and stunk worse than pigs in shit? Right. And I suppose the next thing he'll say is that the Abrahamic god, aka Yahweh, is the personification of "love" despite the endless tales of genocide in the "Good Book". The only thing that Palantir excels at is artificial stupidity.

Maybe's avatar

I have a hunch this guy has a truly intimate relationship with pigs in shit, but his are the human variety.

Well, I'm just a science-trained woke bitch, so I guess this AI disruption isn't going to affect me, then?

Ta, Evan. Karp is invited to go fuck himself, now and forever.

Apparently these people have the most feeble connection with reality possible that still allows complete sentences. Of course their Lord Most High Savior has transcended mere English and only talks in tongues.

Agatha's avatar

Weird. He really resembles a Carp.

Maybe's avatar

Worse. By far.

We need to clone Luigi. Stat.
