Could they theoretically store or just bury the yeast as a means of carbon capture ?

There are bugs in every system. AI will just create different types of bugs. It’s the nature of technology.

The hype money being thrown at AI is making the F35 of software out of this shit though. Big Tech accumulated so much cash and had nothing to throw it at after VR didn’t take off.

Then we get Skynet.

Basically the US government has been trying to fight a tech war for their Big Tech buddies over about a decade. It’s gone fucking terrible.

So I say just keep going like lemmings!

China tech looks like more Star Trek and the US looks more like Mad Max but somehow the analyst from the Heritage Foundation thinks China is copying the US homework.(E.g Huawei Cloud Matrix uses optical interconnects that NVIDIA doesn’t have.)

It’s analysis like that which created the shit strategy that is losing the tech war. But when you listen to idiots for advice and lose, who’s really to blame?

I don’t think that was their vibes.

From article:

the point is not to let ourselves be replaced by AIs, but to use them to improve ourselves and our productivity

My take:

The role of the programmer is ultimately to solve the problems. There are many ways to skin the cat. The better solutions comes from the better programmers.

Bosses under capitalism have less understanding of the pros/cons of a particular solution. Hence they will often use their decision making powers to choose the quick solution rather than the best.

LLM/AI is at arms reach from the people, no matter how much money Big Tech puts on Datacenters. The scary part is what Google always used to do best, lobbying for monopolization. Aside from that, we’re safe.

I think there’s potential danger from other angles.

Capitalist bosses are looking to downsize their workforce. AI is marketed by Big Tech as the new “outsourcing”. Bosses are dumb enough to pay for that. This is the SW version of a manufacturing robot.

In the meantime, we kill a lot of atmosphere on the data centre electricity to make this slop.

As I said though, AI is CURRENTLY a service as offered by the big tech oligarchy. Just like the search engine tool is dominated by Google. They use Search as a means of extracting money from the economy. It’s a form of rent.

DeepSeek broke the service model. Others are following in their footsteps. It’s just a matter of sticking to open source models to kill off the profitability of an AI oligarchy.

The threat I see is the dominance of AI services provided by an oligarchy of tech companies. Like Google dominance of search. It’s a service that they own.

Thankfully China is a source of alternative AI services AND open source models. The bonus is that Chinese companies like Huawei are also an alternative source of AI hardware. This allows you to run your own AI models so you don’t necessarily need their services.

You’re thinking of class war. There’s only one proven way to win that war: The working class rises up, kill some MFers and takes over. There’s no point smashing the loom - kill the loom owners and take their looms.

Is Vietnam a socialist country? Is Italy a capitalist country?

Can’t wait until the next debate when he can shield himself with a tinfoil hat.

I think the main issue is that the theorists aren’t ever the ones actually executing the organizational work needed to manage an incredibly complex economic system. Without that experience, they don’t know how to analyze China’s performance. They have theories that they never had to put into practice. It’s very academic.

Fuck your ignorance and wikipedia. You wouldn’t know shit about Tibet or give a fuck.

Bullshit white supremacists dog whistle their asshole attitudes towards colored people by characterizing the “bad” countries as dangerous uncivilized inhumane societies. They always claim it’s only the government being criticized. Doesn’t take much for a racist to slip up and shit on the entire population: the slightest 30 sec tiktok vid will set them off.

Whatever. Enjoy your racist tropes.

What is this lib shit? If they write unironically about organ harvesting, FLG and Tibet in the second paragraph of the intro, they’re a bunch of racist white edgelords.
