Garbage in, garbage out. If society is told to be exploitative and annoying to get ahead, that’s what you get.

When it was asked to work together equitably (before Reagan cut the tax rate from 70%+) more equitable society is what we got.

My solution is to not use online products.

I have a Gmail account because everyone needs email these days, and an iPhone with Gmail and banking and little else “online”

Sorry not sorry tech people but I never really asked to be born or have your existence specifically but on me specifically.

You’re society’s problem, not mine. It can deal with it without knowing I exist.

itioo | 1 year ago | on: The AI industry spent 17x more on Nvidia chips than it brought in in revenue

Difference being oil is still economically useful whereas nvidia and current AI won’t be in 100+ years.

It’s not necessarily a building block to anything, either. Some alternative to transformers or some biotech based AI could come along with zero connection to current AI

This is just another virtual economy, because the prior generations have monopolized the real economy, pump and dump to maintain social order
