stop posting reactionary nonsense on my dashboard come onnnnnnn
Is it reactionary to say that actually Grok has no business parenting my kids and wooing my wife? Inb4 the "soulless" word thrown at the end becomes 90% of the takeaway, but "you shouldn't depend on capitalists for no reason to achieve things you used to be perfectly proficient in" is not reactionary.
yes it's reactionary, Grok is not a person, Grok has no agency. parents using nazi sources to parent their kids is not new and not a feature of AI or technology in general. Grok is also not capable of wooing your wife. passing off a love poem as yours to woo your wife does not mean the original author is cucking you.
if you remove the nazism and say "ChatGPT has no business parenting my kids" you are still left with a sentence that has the same meaning as "Google/Wikipedia has no business parenting my kids". it's nonsense.
What an adroit rebuttal of a point no one made.
If you don't assume that I believe Grok to be a person or... think I'm cucked by it? what? for no reason, you're left with...
"what about other things that are also bad?"
which in order to maintain my belief that we're not doomed, I have to believe you'll agree is a terrible answer to "it's not reactionary to think that depending on extraneous services provided by capitalists for a mountain of everyday skills you used to have is bad actually"
my answer is not "like ChatGPT, Wikipedia and Google have issues too", though they do. my answer is "these issues are due to capitalism. all the other arguments against them, about the nature of humanity or historical tech use or love, are vibes. they are untethered from or directly opposed to facts".
you have significantly distorted OP's point and improved it into a different, better point, which is not outright reactionary but is still a mistake. the problem in your sentence is "capitalist". fortunately it's easily solvable because you can also use AI made in socialist countries and download it to your computer so it remains under your control forever.
but i don't get the feeling OP and most people reblogging that post are cool with me doing that to write my love letters. because their objection is based on vibes, not analysis.
For anyone still doubting my gift of foresight, this is another prophecy of mine that came true
baffling reply, you're the only one talking about "soul" here.
#no socialist country has produced a consumer ''everyday skill as service'' machine#some would say there is no incentive for a socialist country to produce a device that makes people worse at everything#while polluting and making working conditions worse for no benefit#others would remark that it would be bad to do that even if an incentive existed
this is where it ultimately all leads. either you think the issue is inherent to the technology and even socialism has no use for it (so you're operating purely on knee-jerk vibes, you are a reactionary), or you think the issue is that capitalists control this technology.
if that's the latter, either you're speaking about capitalism and AI without having investigated socialist countries' approach to AI, or you're arguing that China (DeepSeek), Vietnam (VT-Super), Cuba (CecilIA) and Laos (AI to be announced) aren't socialist countries.
which one is it?
alternatively, if tens of thousands of officials and scientists across all those socialist countries are making the wrong decision, and you've seen their logic, and it doesn't hold up to you, you can contest it in good faith. but you'd have to be more rigorous than this.
#sorry I come from a country where assessing students' skills is still the point#you assumed wrongly#not for the first time today
not only are you missing the point (skills to be what? a critical thinker or merely a competent and specialized worker under capitalism?), this objectively the funniest thing a French person could say, 10/10.
I will note that "everyday skills you used to have" such as: - essays: sparked a whole industry such as Cliffnotes to streamline the process as well as a cottage industry of paying other people to write your essays for yourself (as well as just, copying the essay from a friend that's a grade up from you or something like that). - writing a eulogy: there are thousands of canned eulogies around and I'd even expect funeral planners to have a few samples laying around. (And this is also a deeply Western thing? Plenty of countries don't do formalized eulogies and I'd expect someone with grief and having to plan a funeral would not appreciate the extra homework. Because that's fundamentally the reason most abled people would ask AI to write a eulogy, isn't it? Because it's homework they don't want to do but have to turn it in.) - writing a love note: same as above except even easier to plagiarize a random love poem you found off of Google. - parenting children: the oldest known parenting guide comes from 2nd century CE. People have been outsourcing pregnancy and child rearing to third parties for at least 1800 years now. - reading a bed time story: either the problem is TTS or that the person wasn't reading a printed book someone wrote for their children. It's really a non-issue either way. (Also a Western thing btw, not reading a bedtime story to your children is, as far as I can tell, the norm around the world. And considering the increasing amount of pressure people have in their day to day lives -- specially the women who are most often doing the child rearing -- I can see why they'd want to ditch or automate this step to get themselves more time for themselves for a change).
And perhaps more importantly: you can host models on your own. While you likely don't have a strong enough computer to host something like Deepseek or ChatGPT or Gemini or whatever, an average gaming rig can train and host a decent enough LLM if you just give it one task in the corner. Even beefier LLMs if you don't mind it taking forever for generate a result (e.g.: the kind of thing you can do if you want it to generate a love note or write a eulogy or an essay. You give it a prompt before going to bed or to school or to work and check on it when you come back.) So LLMs are only "extraneous services provided by capitalists for a mountain of everyday skills you used to have" if you 1) refuse to look into self hosting, self training or the open source environment -- there are plenty of people who like tinkering with this shit for a hobby. 2) refuse to see that people were already using extraneous services provided by capitalists for everyday skills for far longer than you were born and will continue to do so long after you're dead, even in a fully automated gay communist utopia. 3) have a definition of every day tasks that doesn't consider why these tasks are everyday tasks and why people need to be able to do it. Like, why do schools have essays as opposed to oral exams or presentations? Now that a new technology was discovered that can't be undiscovered -- in part because, as I mentioned, you can host this on your computer and nobody can stop you from doing that -- do the same material conditions still apply? How can we adapt to that? Any position that comes as "this technology is bad and should be uninvented" when the technology clearly solves a problem that people have (or else they wouldn't be using it) is necessarily reactionary unless you can propose a better way to solve those problems, otherwise you're cosplaying as a Luddite and just like the Luddites did, you'll lose and become irrelevant.

still kind of hilarious that people in the witcher universe are often extremely racist against witchers. like bro. how you gonna have beef with the pest control guys. sure they have yellow cat eyes and creepy magic powers but they got those specifically as part of the process to become the pest control guys. your pests are six feet tall and killing the neighborhood kids. why are you like this
