And yet, China is using AI.

…I… don’t know what to think about that.

…I really don’t.

Because it seems that AI is just a scam.

It may “exist” but what it can do is a scam.

Maybe China thinks we have to use it just to “keep up” with the Western powers, but I dunno.

Anyway, interesting discussion with Adam Conover and Ed Zitron. It’s long, but you can listen to it while doing other things. And the comments are interesting too, but then again, there are also trolls in the comments as well (AI supporters here and there).

Frankly, though? I oppose AI. I’m anti-AI. I’m anti-AI in China and anti-AI in America and anti-AI in the whole damn planet.

    To clarify when u say “AI” do u mean llms and diffusion models cuz if u mean ai as a whole then u are simply wrong ai is hugely useful, has been around for decades, and is widely used in basically everything u can imagine. If by ai u specifically mean llms and diffusion models, then let me clarify that yes these models do in fact exists and let me further clarify that “AI” is just a term these models are in no way “intelligent” just in case thats what u mean by “exists”, and yeah many of their purported uses are scams tho some are not, the REAL use of llms and diffusion models from the perspective of capitalist is to fire a bunch of people because “ai can do their jobs now” and then hire them right back at a much lower salary to do the same job but as prompt engineers, just like they did with translators back when google translate became viable(which is also ai btw).
