@rbreich Isn't AI just a bigger faster database with a scary name? The smartest kid in school was never the one who could just repeat back everything the teacher said.

@rbreich Where is this bit from?

@bjadams44 @rbreich If it was a bigger faster database with a scary name, that would be somewhat okay. But it's really not, because if it was a database we could get the original data out of it.

We could then have attribution, instead we have mushed together things that are completely unattributable. But that is also a large part of the point, that these companies don't want the answers to be attributable. They want the answers to seem to come from *them*.

This tec is not made for humans, rather say to serve humans. It's an arms race.
An arms race for the ability to control - through tec - among those who already own the tec.

Of course this is not new, just scaled up (what an understatement) to absurd proportions.

Remember this?

Cory Doctorow has a gift in how he brings his thoughts alive and delivers them with unforgettable metaphors.

@AG100pct @ZhiZhu @rbreich @pluralistic I love that Cory Doctorow boosted this. That’s how the pros do it, people: if someone calls you a genius, agree with them (at least outwardly)!

1. It's not inevitable ... it's an ice castle built on warm promises.
2. It's only here to stay so long as its fans and investors see a return on the huge investments they've been talkied into making. Since it's not really A.I. people will eventually see it bump into its massive limitations.
