    Do you think destroying the planet is progress? These are jackasses doing more harm than good and they’re labeling their stupid visions as progress. Central planning is filled with issues, right? Well a few rich people shaping the world to their liking is pretty damn centralized.

      You actually think some programmers and scientists creating a language model is destroying the world?

      I’d say that belongs to the large investment firms, and the billionaires who decide to do things like bury climate data and push propaganda that climate change isn’t a thing for the last 100 years.

      But hey, you do you champ!

        So you decided to focus on the chatbot mention in the comic while ignoring the entire overarching point of the comic? Someone who thinks as robotically as you should fear for their job.

        But hey, you do you chimp!

          No, I focused on the technology and said we should be attacking the billionaires not the technology.

          Space travel and computer science isn’t destroying the world, authoritarians and the ruling classes are.

            Using the technology, yes. They’re having wet dreams about using AI to replace people.

              Im having wet dreams about that too.

              Imagine human value decoupled from our labour. Every job we can eliminate is a win for humanity.

                You recognize that billionaires are the problem but don’t see how they’re going to use this new automation to make things hell for the rest of us?

                    Okay. Let’s just chalk it up to you missing the point of the comic and move on.
