• a phrase i use in this is ‘Automated industry, not artificial intelligence’

    as in that the best focus is to enrich productivity and make life easier for the average worker, not some future tech nonsense to take their jobs away

      China is using the technology for purposes that remove toil and improve quality of life.

      The western dragon-chasing is in pursuit of “singularity” fantasies and fueled by contempt for workers.

      • the socialist reforms in china have done well, but they need to advance. Youth unemployment, Private healthcare, no right to strike, export focus economy, and such are areas where socialist reforms are necessary. But i have hope that china will do so, they have capital back under them, and perhaps they can re-stabilize the ownership of the dictatorship of the working class back on china.

        But yeah the west is fucked to hell, can’t wait to see it fall
