    Good point, I am checking myself periodically: have I become a luddite?

    Well, we improved machines. We are not going to make the “AI” understand what a finger is and how many of them humans have

      You should be a Luddite because they were right. My point wasn’t that we should embrace AI (trust me, I’m one of its most dedicated haters), but that just because technology produces lower quality goods doesn’t mean it won’t catch on. It’s going to take more than jeering mockery to stop capitalist embracing something that lets them deskill workers.

        True. To stop the spiral into more and more shitty world is going to take some fundamental work

        /theatrical sigh/ Guess I will be questioning why the hell it had not been done already thousands of years before I was born for many more years to come
