Does a writefreely instance appear on lemmy as a community with posts written by the author? That would be so cool, and would go in the right direction of integrating different kinds of social media in one client.

Let's make a community powered, open source project to do this and watch them squirm when investors demand that million dollar CEOs get replaced with AI for higher investor returns.

It's a funny story because Ford was suspecting them of building a rival car company so he wasn't doing it entirely out of altruistic pursuits. He wanted to them to get lower profits from their Ford investments. Whenever you think capitalists have reached the peak of greed, they truly innovate.

The first paragraphs of that are good points. The rest is just Stallman going on a political rant attacking strawman arguments.

There would be music programs allowed only for rap music, and others allowed only for classical music.

I get where this is coming from, and it's good to move away from the libertarian fantasy that technology is neutral. But in practice, it is very hard to actually use.

For example, you can't use any GPL code that you may want to include, as that forces your project to also become GPL. And anyone using your code would also have to walk on eggshells for licensing, and they would probably just avoid it in the first place.

It might be useful to some very specific end products, but this will likely not see a lot of adoption.

Great job, the system is broken as fuck anyway. The fact that he used AI to do it is the karmic cherry on top! Ideally, you should be able to run the model on the cloud of the company you're interviewing for, just as an extra 'fuck you'.
