Google “do no evil” my ass. Lately I’ve become very tired of all these tech companies who think they control the internet. That’s not how internet works. I think they forgot how it really works.
And this AI shit? It’s kind of disappointing. And the reason for that is because of how corporations are trying to exploit it to maximise their profits just like everything/everybody else.
Technology in general, including AI, was supposed to make our lives easier. Make us need to work less to produce just as much or more. The goal was to have a utopia where nobody would have to work anymore and technology would take care of everything for us. But NOOOOOOO. We’re still working harder than ever just trying to get by, and if we can be replace by technology, then too fucking bad. You end up poor, homeless and you’re told by the same wealthy people who fired you and who are benefiting from technology to “pick yourself up by your bootstraps”.
