Anti-AI is also not anti-tech. It’s anti-surfdom. This issue wouldn’t be nearly as politicised if people didn’t have to rent it from those massive companies.
Edit: meant serfdom, but the misspell is funny. I guess riding waves and touching grass aren’t so different after all.
Technical progress without societal and moral progress is dangerous.
If we invent something that is more efficient, cheaper and sustainable but it still remains in the hands of extremist billionaires and governments who would use it to I don’t know kill more children in gaza, it all becomes moot and just serves as a tool for technofascism.
To play the devil’s advocate, Llms have really good use cases in some niche areas. It’s just that tech bros are just shoving it to our throats, using it to rob the means of labor and surveillance state, plus they own the means of compute and development.
