"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

Who came up with this load of cow residues? Yeah AI plays the role of accelerating the problem so now its at least known. Nobody is doing something about it. Trump wants us all to do less about it since he's an old fart and closer to 100 than the rest of us.

I love the argument that AI will "fix global warming". We already know how to fix global warming! We've known for decades! Global warming is not some incalculable mystery!

I mean it not lying, only that is a negative role.

How they hope to use AI to fight global warming:

  1. Automate all jobs so that wage labor is no longer required. The bottom 90% are shut out of the economy. The economy is just rich people buying and selling the services of their robot armies to other rich people.

  2. Let the bottom 90% starve to death, maintaining order via robot armies.

  3. Celebrate the reduction in carbon emissions after the vast majority of the population is simply eliminated.

I think they meant “critical roll.” Right? AI is dealing a critical roll to the race to a more sustainable future.

I hate how windows will just display random propaganda messages on boot

Not even good propaganda either, like "You should try Plan9" or "POSIX-compliant operating systems aren't just the past, they're the future".

Nice. We really needed more failed geeks larping as nazis.

[–] hperrin@lemmy.ca 7 points 18 hours ago

Yes, it is causing us to consistently roll natural one (critical failure).

AI (not LLMs or GenAI) can be used to make things more efficient and sustainable. What Microsoft is doing certainly isn't that.
