    You’re confused, but whatever.

    slave whipping machine example blah blah

    Ridiculous example not even close to AI or what I was arguing. I made no such argument implying progressives support everything new, so fuck right off with this nonsense. AI can absolutely be positive if used for the benefit of all, you know it or you’re a liar.

    You can’t honestly believe that technological advancements, no matter their use, no matter their owners, no matter who they will hurt, and no matter how quickly it’ll destroy the climate

    Never said or implied anything close to that. You’re in fucking fantasy land.

    IN AN ONGOING CLIMATE EMERGENCY

    Arguably the power of AI if used correctly could help with this in many ways. Have it help accelerate battery tech, help with nuclear power plants, more efficient solar panels, etc.

    Look at all of the other more recent tech advancements

    upped productivity drastically, and thus profits

    These benefits should be ours, for everyone not just the elite. This is what I’m arguing.

    We are living in a world increasingly dominated by tech and it’s all in the hands of the ruling class—they’ve literally turned us and out data into products. It is not “conservative” to say these things are bad

    It is though. What do you want to do? Be a hippy living in the forest eating berries? You seem to just have a hatred for anything tech. I want all the tech for the benefit of everyone, not a billionaire elite. Your solution to “just don’t do it” because we don’t have control is stupid. You are a pussy. We need to take control and use it for the benefit of all.

    My original comment was simple and still stands. You are making the regressive argument: its got problems therefore don’t do it. I’m arguing we should absolutely do it because it has many amazing implications and possibilities that can benefit everyone.
