This is either excellent bait or really missing the point. You can hate two things. Fuck trump, but also fuck AI and everything it represents.

What does it represent to you? Once upon a time the idea of robots or machinery doing all our work for us, it was a dream. Only under capitalism is that a bad thing, because then people won’t be forced to work for unedible money. AI could be a great thing. Under capitalism though, it represents something potentially terrible.

You whole argument seems to be “we didnt think it was bad in the past, so its not bad in the present and wont be in the future”
Its such a weak point of view. When we learn something is bad for us we should take steps to stop it. Regardless of whether or not we once thought it would be the best thing ever.
We grow. Priorities change. Fancy graphics got fancy enough that people stopped caring. Games got less fun so people took it upon themselves to fix that. A high number of indie games have done the rounds and made millions. Because they are actually fun.
You are right that we used to be happy when better gfx came along and we all would gladly shell out for the latest nvidia card. But those were different times. Back th3n we could afford it. Back then gfx were bad and every new generation actually made a tangeble and noticeable improvement.
These days there is barely a difference between a ps4 and ps5.
So stfu. Because you are just wrong.

Let me ask you something: would you use a trebuchet in lieu of an elevator to reach the 15th floor of a building?

But that’s my point, people are complaining about elevators because there’s perfectly good stairs. I bet people did say that about elevators, calling them death traps and such, when the early implementations were less safe or less quality. My point is it’s the same with AI, people are afraid of this new cutting edge technology that our current capitalist society can’t handle.

You missed my point, entirely. Both get you ‘up’. One was specifically designed to; the other incidentally does.
