You are correct that European empires have done unimaginable harm. However, be careful not to strip agency away from the Haitian people themselves. To state that everything is a consequence of white people is to suggest that the Haitians have no control of anything and no agency. It’s almost like an accidental racism where nothing is attributable to people of color.

This is not meant to excuse anything the Europeans did, but evil can be found in all cultures. Immigration, economic disasters, and authoritarian takeovers would still happen without white imperialism.

It’s not some random dude in a garage, it’s the unregulated tech overlords and autocrats that could do it. AI isn’t intelligent, but it has amazing pattern matching capabilities. It’s going to create all sorts of advancements in science, and to deny the problems that comes with this is both silly and dangerous.

If we want to fight ai, we have to understand it. It’s not a conscious omnipotent god like the tech bros think, but it’s also not a useless fad. Real scientists are warning of its potential consequences, and governments all over the world are investing trillions to improve it.

In a decade, it should be at least twice as powerful as it is today, and that is indeed a big deal.

People still think AI is useless? I mean I hate AI with a fiery passion, but I thought the whole AI is a scam thing ended last year. Spreading the message that it’s all just a scam is dangerous because it makes people who may otherwise stand up against it complacent.

Is it what the tech industry says it is? No. Will it reach something like agi? Scientists are split. But is AI something we can ignore or write off? Heck no.

They will still use it to train. Just like they have been since day one.

The EU’s reaction to AI has been so sad. Hard to keep hope when the only sane region in the world is also fully on board.

Finally a correct take on AI by a politician.

Yep. And a new marble helipad. So at least there’s that.

Damn. Now that’s a cute ass bat.
