If the NoAi protests taught us anything, it was that trying to engage with an angry mob as though they were anything other than an angry mob is a mistake. People on a blood libel don't need a reason to be on a blood libel
@Lynncorrigible Twitter algorithm worked for me for once, it looks like a fellow lefty AI enthusiast in the wild. Been feeling stuck in between people who are completely against ai on the left and pro corporate ai on the right.
@HaldemanClaire Hi! Nice to meetcha! It's hard to be specific, but I think AI just blows away the left/right paradigm. Causes supposed leftists to rage against democratizing the means of production. The world we live in is completely upside down at the moment
@Lynncorrigible @HaldemanClaire AntiAI reminds me of antivax. Antivax lefties are anti (naturalistic argument here) and antivax righties are anti (insert government conspiracy here). On the surface they look like they agree, but the reasons are so different.
@AIVA_Graphics @HaldemanClaire Both crazy tho. Well said
