Comment on ChatGPT is shifting rightwards politically
TwiddleTwaddle@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 days agoWe’re all being fucked by corporate AI anyways, and none of us are in the room to shape decisions. To me, using AI (and especially paying for it from the likes of chatGPT) is capitulating to the oppressors and doesnt actually allow us any greater control over the technology’s future. It teaches reliance on a technology that has the express purpose of replacing our need to think and our labor. I don’t pretend it doesnt exist because I’m not delusional, but I will argue that it’s ultimately harmful to society with my last breath, at least in it’s current forms.

That argument was to be had with Apple twenty years ago as they built their walled garden, which intentionally frustrates people into going all in apple. Still can’t get anyone to care about dark patters/deceptive design, or disney attacking the creative Commons which it parasitically grew or of. AI isn’t and has never been the real issue. It’s just absorbs all the hate the corpos should be getting as they use it, along with every other tool at their disposal, to slowly fuck us into subservience. Honestly, AI is teaching us the importance of diverse perspectives in intelligent systems, and the dangers of overfitting, which exist in our own brains and social/economic systems.
Same issue, different social ecosystem being hoarded by the wealthy.
