This is probably a very unpopular opinion but leftists should not oppose AI.
AI has the potential to make our lives easier as workers, but in the hands of capitalists, they will continue to extract our surplus value even as our productivity increases, exactly as happened during the Industrial Revolution. Instead of the workday being shortened, it grew longer, and under extremely harsh conditions.
We should use it to our advantage, create propaganda, videos, and information. Opposing it would be like workers in the last century refusing to use machines and instead wanting to make a revolution with picks and shovels.
Only when AI is in the hands of workers rather than the market will we be able to properly regulate its use.
>>2817713I agree. Fuck leftists though, left wing of capital.
>>2817713We do not have AI. We have fancy autocomplete that the bourgeoisie are going to try to use to decimate workers. It's going to fail, and the stock market is going to crash, because this fancy autocomplete is prohibitively expensive to operate.
>>2817713Go ahead, use AI as much as you want, no one's stopping you.
>>2817713wake me up when AI:
- is actually intelligent, at least rivaling that of a person
- isn't a needlessly environmentally destructive force
- open source and readily available to anyone for implementation in applications outside of government/private sector
- isn't a gigantic speculative bubble
