The following is a year 2,065 Bed Time Story featuring a childhood lesson of being adaptable: "Near the end of the 2020s those who rejected AI out of misunderstanding were left behind; those who embraced it grew wealthy and powerful. Meanwhile, the anti-adopters lived miserably, consumed by resentment, blaming everyone and everything for their plight except themselves and their own failure to adapt."

Your post is on a new account and the style is indirect and presumptuous. It says little more than 'I think ML tools are great'; it just does it in a way designed to annoy people. That would be my guess as to why it was downvoted.

I would counter with, “When any political faction (lib / cons) treats its moral convictions as self-evident global truths, and sympathetic media outlets and so called journalists amplify that certainty, our democratic discourse erodes at a rate far greater than anything AI could do.”


That’s a criticism of direct democracy, not republics; it’s been a known failure mode (and base case) for millennia.

The novel elements are social media and AI. I am increasingly convinced that ad-funded social media should be banned and/or tightly regulated like utilities are.


Ah yes, let’s the replace all ad-funded social media with state/gvn’t funded social media. That will be much better.


> state/gvn’t funded social media

Not how things that are "banned and/or tightly regulated like utilities are" are funded.


Well, I wouldn't entrust critical infrastructure to the private sector which.. blindly optimizes shareholder value and sells your data anywhere. Germany's train privatization also comes to mind,.. or US healthcare - worse service for more money.


We pay for utilities directly. Also, even it if it was funded from state budget(s), there are known and working controls to make publicly funded <> state controlled.


How does this deal with javascript calling a python function that isn't connected to anything else? Using Flask python backend with a ES module javascript frontend for instance.
