Much of what’s known as ‘AI’ has nothing to do with progress — it’s about lobbyists pushing shoddy digital replacements for human labour that increase billionaire’s profits and make workers’ lives worse.

    chatbots like gpt and gemini learn from conversations with veiwers, so what we need is a virus that will pretend to be a user and flood its chats with pro racism arguments and sexist remarks, which will rub off on the chatbots making them unacceptable for public use

          You’re thinking it would require effort or coordination on the part of real people, instead of it being default behaviour for some

        Yeah. GROK and Twitter have entered the chat. Seriously though, we’ve regressed pretty far in what the general public deems acceptable.
