this graduation speech moment is notable, and her amazed shock at having failed to read the room feels instructive.

@howking @danbrotherston @cabel The people not using AI are afraid to learn new skills? Oh, the irony...

@danbrotherston @PaniczGodek @cabel If you see it from the distance of two centuries, from a society shaped by the industrial revolution it may look like that. But it seems you underestimate the massive disruption that it caused at the time.

For a lot of people the industrial revolution was catastrophic, bringing poverty, famine and early death. Trade unions, worker parties and communism were invented and revolutions staged. It took decades to fix the worst fallout of the industrial revolution.

Personally, I'd rather not have that happen in my lifetime but here we are.

@SmartmanApps @GhostOnTheHalfShell @cabel but it kind of does? i mean theres mathematicians acknowledging its generating some pretty decent proofs of previously unsolved stuff and so forth. i dont see why people are always clinging to these by now obviously false claims of inaptitude when the issues are much more standard capitalism type

@danbrotherston @howking @cabel Not only were the Luddites not against the machinery, many of them were MASTER USERS OF IT. Exactly as you said, the protest wasn't against machinery but against what it was doing to entire societies.

And it's the same fight today.

@rainynight65 @cabel Don’t think she knows what she’s saying..

The industrial revolution was about deskilling, removing power #labour used to have, and concentrating it in the hands of those who owned the machines

This is the same plan #AI industrialists have right now

It isn’t one bit worth to celebrate. No teacher worth their salt should be praising it

The #industrialrevolution plunged majorities of citizens into poverty for 4 generations before they took control back!

@howking @cabel Dude. Really.

History is **littered** with technology that was "here to stay" and was going to "change the world". **AI ALONE** has gone through at least four cycles of this hype in my lifetime alone!

LLMbeciles, in specific, are going to die a horrible death as soon as the fiscal gloves come off and be relegated to tiny niches like all prior AI did.

But go ahead. Ignore history. I'll just grab the popcorn and watch.
