    I'm serious. Hanlons razor, that stupid rule of thumb, has probably caused the most harm of any phrase ever uttered.

  • The thing is, the "people" propping it up, are massive tech companies with collectively trillions of dollars to burn on this thing that is making their stock prices soar.

    They have no incentive as the primary investors doing the circular buying to stop. The big problem here is the stock market provides awful incentives to everyone.

  • Lets not also forget that for a bunch of them, they want to completely replace lightning fast, simple UI with AI so they don't need their own programmers, and your experience doing things is outright painful.

  • I am supremely doubtful with all the infighting on the left with the literal child mentality "but they're both bad!!!1!" bothsiders, and the "nothing ever happens" crowd who thinks things will magically just go back to normal that it will be the good outcome.

    I mean we've seen a number of positives recently like

    • Nancy Pelosi dying retiring (might as well be the same things for old crotcheties like herself)
    • Dick Cheney dying (May god rest his soul... in hell... for all eternity)
    • Prop 50 passing
    • Mamdani winning with a higher percentage of votes than everyone else combined

    But that's just not enough.

    They are in charge of all the institutions required for a fair or even approximately close to """fair""" by old standards election and there are literally no means for recourse that aren't just straight up violence, which despite the edgy people online's messages, no one actually has the stomach for and is therefore just words used to procrastinate.

  • This is absurd and they all need to be removed from office for incompetence, then charged for all the crimes they have committed.

    Why do yall keep saying things like this. It feels like there are dozens of people trapped in the thinking that somewhere some other grown ups will be the grown ups for them.

    These are the people who have been picked and who have the power.

    They won't be arresting themselves, and they wont allow fair and free elections if no one forces the issue.

  • This is very important. Too many people think policies that help the middle class help them, and its like, bitch, you do not own a house. You are less than 3 months worth of paychecks away from being on the street. You are not middle class.

    Most people aren't middle class anymore.

    When politicians say middle class, its almost always so they can appeal to rich people while phrasing it as applying to you.

    You are working class.

    Just about everyone here is working class.

    Working class is the median class.

  • It's always just been a lie they conveniently apply to hurt those they dislike (marginalized people and the poor).

    Like how slavery was a small government issue, but now petty crime and protests are a national government issue.

  • Alternatively, these feelings about this post are falling prey to fascist tactics. Freedom of Speech is a concept of the past and they will keep "joking" about it as they clamp down more and more till criticism is silenced out. The whole time, these feelings will have been unwillingly supporting it by dismissing the carefully orchestrated circus show of smoke, rights violations and mirrors as merely being the mirrors, circus and smoke.

  • Personally I feel that the hate for AI is misplaced (mostly, as I do get there is a lot of nuance regarding peoples feelings on training sourcing etc). Partially because its such a wide catch all term, and then mostly, by far, because all of the problems with AI are actually just problems with the underlying crony capitalism in charge of its development right now.

    Every problem like AI "lacking empathy" is down to the people using it not caring to keep it out of places where it fails to accomplish such goals or where they are explicitly using it to strip people of their humanity; something that inherently lacks empathy.

    If you take away the horrible business motivations etc, I think its pretty undeniable AI is and will be a great technology for a lot of purposes and not for a lot of the ones its used for now (this continued idea that all UI can be replaced such that programmers wont be needed for specific apps and other such uses).

    Obviously we can't just separate that but I think its important to think about especially regarding regulation. That's because I believe that big AI currently is practically begging to be regulated such that the moat to create useful AI becomes so large that no useful open source general purpose AI tools can exist without corporate backing. That's I think one of their end goals along with making it far more expensive to become a competitor.

    That being said this is a little bit out of hand in that this was about software in general, and regarding that and AI, I do believe empathy can be included, and built correctly, a computer system could have a lot more empathy than most human beings who typically only have meaningful empathy towards people they personally empathize with in their actions, which leads to awful systemic discrimination reinforcing practices.

    As for the flock example, I think its almost certain they got in with some backroom deals, and in a more fair world..... where those still exist somehow, the police department would have a contract with some sort of stipulations regarding what happens with false identifications. The police officers also would not be traumatizing people over stolen property in the first place.

    That is all to say, I think that often when software is blamed, what should actually be blamed is the business goals that lead to the creation of that software and the people behind them. The software is after all automation of the will of the owners.

  • bud this is all tldr.

    There are 2 sides that you can vote for in American politics.

    That's not being unable to see nuance, that's being able to see facts.

    You seem stuck on making a point that is irrelevant and increasingly more incorrect.

    I can't care to engage with someone who isn't reading what I'm saying. It would just be talking past each other.

  • Your post starts with a sloganeering, hyper-reductive take of what I wrote.

    This is such a hopelessly lazy dismissal of that criticism I'm just going to ignore it and hope you have anything better to offer.

    Nope. Skimmed through it and you're still making the same strawman argument. I guess there is nothing more to say here if you don't recognize it.

  • Burden of proof? You literally just made your first point about anything I said, I shouldn't have even wasted the time responding.

    You are really staking your argument on thinking companies don't get consequences for software fuckups?

    I'm sure you'll make up some excuses for why somehow none of these count, but the list is so deep you could debate every example here and 10 more would pop up. Tons more happens behind the scenes too with SLA contracts etc.

    This sounds like you knew you were wrong all along but still wanted to be a snide, condescending, and undeservedly arrogant about it.

    The fact that some don't doesn't mean that none do.

    You go do some leg work before requesting it of me after thinking you could just troll your way out of your ridiculous initial comment

    Reading your other comments outside this thread, this whole chain seems so illogical. What triggered this bizarre emotional reaction to such a relatively innocuous comment? You must have been reading something in.
