Disapproving of automated plagiarism is classist ableism, actually: Nanowrimo

  • Doesn't even mention the one use case I have a moderate amount of respect for, automatically generating image descriptions for blind people.

    And even those should always be labeled, since AI is categorically inferior to intentional communication.

    They seem focused on the use case "I don't have the ability to communicate with intention, but I want to pretend I do."

    • "The concern with slavery is the innocence of victim. When that’s removed, it’s no longer controversial. At least it shouldn’t be."

  • Not sure that any time someone posts cringe on HN counts as a tech take. Maybe we can bring AI into this?

    What about, enslaving prisoners is not controversial if an AI is giving the orders, since it's not a person oppressing another person. I'll take my 500M VC now please.

  • Is "No gods, no masters, no admins" a slogan that people were seriously using? Frankly, I was just taking the piss with that bit.

    • The EU’s AI Act enters into force. Good.

  • As a german, kind of a relief that the mouthpiece of Bitcoin in parliament is some used-to-be-AfD nobody. (AfD = far right, pretty politically isolated). This shit could have come from the FDP (pro-business liberals) just as well, and they control the ministry of finance!

    I expect some crypto sympathizers in the FDP, but if weirdos like this are the loudest advocates they will probably want to avoid the association.
