>Why would western tech companies knowingly charge into a brick wall like that? Like I know they're stupid but surely not that stupid.
they're absolutely that stupid. the US "AI bubble" in the stock market is the biggest stock market bubble in US history. It is even bigger than the one that led to the great depression. You have to understand, over 90% of increased GDP in the USA over the past year comes from the AI bubble. And what's more important is, the entire AI bubble is perched precariously on top of Nvidia's chips, but Nvidia doesn't even make chips. They just design them. Taiwan manufactures the.m. So this also accelerates the reunification crisis between "Taiwan" and the PRC. if reunification happens, burgers are cooked in the AI race. Listen to Norton.

Is Bluey kino? I keep seeing it around and the artstyle is appealing to me. Hows the writing?

>Okay but is that machine learning or AI though?
Thats like asking if a golden retriever is a dog or an animal. Machine learning is a subset of AI.

Really good overall! I play it for my 1.5yo kid and we both get to enjoy it. It's written to be a show where a lot of episodes have lessons for both kids and parents, and a lot of great background plotlines for the parents to pick up on as they binge watch with their kids. The lessons are good, the characters are lovable, and it's not annoying baby babble like 90% of little kids media. It's an engaging depiction of childhood/parenthood that can be really sweet and, particularly in the case of the episode "The Sign", heartbreaking.

My main criticism of it is that it very much centers an upper-petty bourgeois lifestyle with parents who have a ton of free time, own a pretty large home, and send their kids to a fancy waldorf school. Basically all of the characters in the show enjoy this privileged life (there's actually a pretty funny subtle joke where a French poodle has 9 kids, the implication being because she's rich and Catholic), and kids/parents from more common (working class) backgrounds aren't even acknowledged, let alone shown. I don't necessarily have an issue with kids shows presenting an idealized depiction of childhood, but the idealized depiction has a distinct class character that's pretty impossible to ignore. It's not sinister like Paw Patrol, which is straight-up copaganda banned in our house, but as a working class parent I know there are going to be times where I'll have to have tough conversations with my daughter, where I have to explain that not all parents can do and provide what Bluey's parents do.

>Like the AI race is a tunnel painted on a brick wall? Why would western tech companies knowingly charge into a brick wall like that?

There's a lot going into it. In part, it's less that they're stupid and more that that's where all the money is, so that determines what their companies do. Culturally, the high tech bourgeoisie also want to obviate the need for their pmc, especially after these minor rebellions related to palestine.

But in private, if you talk to anyone involved in ai, they'll admit that the math doesn't make sense. The chance of actually profiting off of the insane amount of money invested at this point is practically zero. The majority of people don't like ai or what it represents. It's actually useful applications are very narrow. No one really needs or wants it, but all this investment is predicated on the idea that it will be everywhere, doing everything, and somehow all these people that ai replaces are going to spend money on it to the tune of trillions of dollars.

I think as far as these ai developers are concerned, individually, there's nothing they can really do about it. That's where the money is to the point the us gov has more or less pledged to backstop them economically. Divesting from ai is akin to ordering the sea not to come in.

I'm speculating here, but I also think that, as a class, ai is considered an essential technology to the bourgeoisie for a number of reasons. The pmc has to be disciplined and ideally eliminated as a significant economic and social factor. It also represents a further enclosure of the digital, intellectual cultural commonses, increasing bourgeois control over these areas.

Further, intellectual automation helps mitigate the demographic crisis of whicg the western bourgeoisie are currently on the wrong side of the ratio. To use the disparity between China and the US as an example, China has, what, three or four times the population that the US does? In terms of productive output, the US simply can't compete with that. A lot of noise has been made about China's population decline, but even assuming that trend and the US's remain static, how many decades would it take before they reach parity?

I think realistically speaking also, the forces which have prevented the US's own population decline also aren't liPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

Socialism in one country also means nationalism is okay which is inherently reactionary.

A Eurasia Federation State with relative regional autonomy was what is needed. In the end progressive partnerships across the socialist block in the 20th century were minuscule and you had to look for them (like the Vietnam and East Germany Coffee Deal). Instead each country practiced autarky.

This is thread is worth less than garbage.

Anyone who is generally supportive of the period of socialist construction under Stalin should cease commenting here.

It's easy. Those "american communists" he worked with were soviet aligned socdems. So the socialist movement was surpressed. FDR is a classic fascist.

>a brutal secular regime were Islamists were persecuted as well lol
Yes but, ISIS and Al Qaeda were funded in part by Amerikkka, you fucking idiot. It wasn't "organic", America sent money over to it in order to hinder communist movements from development.

>>2601185
Amerikkka successed considering cucks like you support islamists now (axis of resistance was literally put in power by the US administration in Iraq xD)

>>2601190
I never supported Islamists though? Hoxha was always against religion, Amerikkkuck. I don't support anything that is useless to the movement at large. You are scum and a traitor diverting attention away from the revolution.

like I said, my question was less about CPUSA specifically. the question came to mind because I was looking on their website to see if they said anything about browderism, band they did have negative things to say about it. You're correct in saying that it's just rhetoric and you have to look at their actions, but it got me thinking about the more general question of changing organizations from within. Obviously you can't do that with bourgeois parties, but can you do it with degenerated communist parties? It's a theoretical question meant more generally. You are probably right that it's not worth doing it with CPUSA specifically.

>le revolutionary moment
Is not going to happen. This is not Tsarist Russia, nor Imperial China, Nor Imperial Ethiopia, Nor Colonial Vietnam, Nor whatever, nor ever will be. Get your head out of your memes. Let us live in reality. You will never shoot it out with the government and win. It will never happen. The armed forces will never decide, "whoah, I guess the communists students are more popular than the government, so let's overthrow the government." And that didn't work out in Ethiopia. Just stop. Be realistic. We live in an actual democracy. If the majority of people wanted communism, we would have it. But they don't.

>>2601193
You will never win shooting it out with the government and the armed forces. Even if you got every single person who is a civilian to rise up against them you would never win shooting it out. They have a million trump cards. It's such a ridiculous fucking premise.

Here's a good idea: a series of videos on Das Kapital. Where the main ideas of each chapter are summarised and presented in a specifically cybernetic framework (that is, ignoring all the cultural and historic references etc, and going straight into the vectors and matrices).

not a bad idea. email it to him

So, is there anything happening in the cybercom sphere? Any news?

Election protests in Honduras as Congress panel vows not to validate result

Officials of a Honduras Congress panel threatened on Wednesday not to validate the result of a Nov. 30 presidential election, citing an "electoral coup" and "interference" by U.S. President Donald Trump, as counting stretched into an 11th day.

While the ruling LIBRE leftist party has no chance of winning the election, it is throwing its support behind Salvador Nasralla, of the center-right Liberal party, who has also alleged fraud and said he has won the election.
It is unclear if Wednesday's declaration by the permanent commission of Congress, which escalates the election crisis, could be enough to annul the results, which must be validated by two of the three members of the National Electoral Council.

With more than 99% of ballots counted, conservative Nasry Asfura of the National Party was about 40,000 votes ahead of Nasralla of the Liberal Party, while LIBRE candidate Rixi Moncada was a distant third.
But inconsistencies in roughly 15% of the tally sheets require further review, heightening the political suspense, as those could be sufficient to sway the election outcome.
