I'm so tired of everything being so stupid, and I'm exhausted in advance of everything getting stupider for the next few years.

BEFORE YOU REPLY: I know businesses won't outsource to it as much as they claim they will because it doesn't work. That's not the point.

The point is, this is their INTENT. This is how little we - all of us - mean to them.

Maybe think about that before playing with the next AI toy.

They'll boil the oceans for the promise of free labor. That's what's driving all the AI bullshit: a bunch of rich assholes who don't want to pay workers.

As a Jew, I am so tired of neo-nazis using "antisemitism" as an excuse to enable fascism.

If that was too complicated a sentence, let me put it this way: Fuck the Heritage Foundation. Long live the free encyclopedia!

Delete your Instagram account before they make AI slop with your face on it.

Any user-generated platform that’s introducing “AI” shit HATES their users. Hates them! Wants to be rid of them. Lives in a fantasy world where perfection can be achieved by replacing all of us with software.

As bad as they got, Instagram and Facebook were still built for people to connect with each other. But with the addition of "AI users," that's not even true anymore. The idea of logging in to a service that immediately spawns AI bots to hawk products at you is dystopian as fuck, and that's exactly where they're headed.

These are the same people who told us how the metaverse was the future where everyone will have meetings with computers strapped to their faces and all the same journalists dutifully wrote it all down like it was true and never asked them about it again.

Just ... fuck 100% of this nonsense.

Even their response is typical AI hype train backpedaling. “The AI we bragged about to journalists was the FUTURE AI slop, not the CURRENT AI slop, which has been removed because of a bug.” (The bug was that people noticed it.)

The unrelenting advertising. The intrusion of AI slop. The fact that my participation was fueling a fundamentally evil machine that benefited only the worst people. And the way the experience in that world just got worse and worse and worse.

I’m glad to be rid of it.

Meta has been horrible for years so I don’t know why today’s shit is the bridge too far, but it is. I deactivated my Instagram and Facebook accounts.

Fuck Meta entirely.

AGI won’t exist. It can’t. At least, not in my lifetime. But after the inevitable bubble pops, we should never forget how these rich assholes burned their fortunes and our planet trying to make it happen.
