I hate to say it, but this is the start.
The pain we’re going to face with genAI (used to extract on top of identity conflict politics) is going to be say at least 20x the pain we experienced with social media.
Our hope is in finding clarity. That even the engineers realise that it is a dead end.

When I led local 'EA' groups, I used to half-jokingly say that effective altruism is a cult. I still like many of the well-intentioned people there. But I've left. Over time, I've come to understand how it's actually a cult.

![STEIN-ERIK: When I power off the Tango printer in my "mother's" office (like if
she's away) she FREAKS out even though she might print one page every 2 weeks... . I noticed that whenever 1 am walking by it, it blinks yellow and green rapidly, which makes me think that it's a motion detector that gives some kind of a warning as to the fact that I'm moving around within the home any thoughts, especially how she gets so angry if I turn it off and it's like what's the big deal?

I wrote a tiny book on why the focus should not be on ‘AI’ specifically, but on the tech corporations.

Sigh. I’m sure they’re not as free of ideology of domination and extraction as they might think they are.
But it’s a sad for some people to be posting Hitler-grandification for cash, and it fitting right into what the algorithms are boosting.
Better if people were genuine about their beliefs.

This is nuts! How distorted do your motivations have to be to not see what you’re entangled into?
![He can't comment on the experience of my friend (which I mentioned to him). He's read the charges of sexual misconduct made against Krauss, as well as Krauss' response to those charges, and he found Krauss' response compelling. He then adds that he knows people, including some women, who've worked with Krauss and never heard anything about a whisper network surrounding the guy. [So freaking what??]
He concludes by saying that his decision to continue being friends with and supporting Krauss is made on the basis of the evidence available to him, which suggests that Krauss is innocent.
This is ridiculous. I shared the Buzzfeed article and my Medium piece, but Chomsky wouldn't update his opinion of Krauss. I also noted in my response to Chomsky that his excuse for remaining friends with Krauss (the last sentence above) reminds me of Krauss' excuse for remaining friends with Epstein after the latter plead guilty to soliciting prostitution from a minor in 2008,](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:wwoynpmtuwhhfus356bnkz7w/bafkreigm5l62buhz2xnppluqlwdds55zmnnoxpzj3ol2c3sxvwci2yzuk4@jpeg)

Narrow visions serve OpenAI’s strategy of manipulating our culture for gain.
That’s how Sam Altman scaled extractive start-ups. And how he now debases the very concept of non-profit charity.
They don’t care about you. “Care” is just pretty packaging for a product to be sold.

OpenAI Foundation will invest in the infrastructure needed for OpenAI to make money.
It’s a fraud of a non-profit: pretending to contribute to the commons, while actually covering the healthcare data and cybersecurity and whatever else can be offloaded by the for-profit entity.

That sounds right!
And it is also worse, because we’re not just going through a (hidden) middle person. But we’re actually getting tied up to the corporate machines and disconnected from each other.
