"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.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

The secret was he wasn't a marxist
If you're smart, amoral, and poor, you'll espouse Marxism because it's in your class interest. If you then get rich, you'll espouse capitalism, because that becomes your class interest. Having no beliefs beyond "I should have as much power as possible" makes your stated ideology a matter of convenience rather than conviction.
Well said. If you are truly a marxist, you recognize it as a science and practice dialectical materialism and historical materialism, and so it should be impossible to break away from it like any other science. No biologist would stop believing in biology because it's convenient.
