The fight is against the replacement of humans by AI, a replacement that has yet to happen and is not at all guaranteed to play out as the creators intend.

Because it is a fight against the virtual, not the actual.

you think AI is virtual? I’m struggling here. are you not aware of how AI is created? of the exploited labour that went into cleaning the data, the environment that is impacted, the mis/disinfo that is rife, the non consensual use of people’s art and work… I could go on. this ain’t virtual, buddy.

But you aren’t attacking every commodity, just a specific one, and one that is coming anyway.

the last panel of Matt Bors’ Mister Gotcha comic. based on the castle in the background and their attire, what appears to be a medieval peasant carrying a bundle of sticks on his back says “we should improve society somewhat”. an extremely annoying and stupid man has popped up with a grin and his hands under his stupid chin from a nearby well, to say, “ yet you participate in society. curious! I am very intelligent.”

You aren’t arguing for improvement of society, you’re arguing against one specific technology. And I’m not shaming you for participating in society, I’m saying that there is a tactical error here.

It is produced as anything under capitalism is produced.

And you’re getting further. We do not steer this ship, capital does: it has evicted us from the Real. Find ways to make weapons of what it brings into existence. All this protesting AI is at best an eager performance. Figure out how to weaponize it.

Remember when Marx said the Capitalist will sell you the rope that you will hang them with? That won’t happen if you keep protesting the rope.

You would’ve had to engage me in good faith to regret doing it. You were looking for a gotcha from the jump and just couldn’t find it. Be better at either theory or baiting please.
