@davidgerard I'm so negative about AI, the climate people--and Gen Z children--I keep company with keep trying to point out its valid use cases to me.
I am not going to be satisfied until all of those data centers are emptied husks that make all of those abandoned malls in the exurban parts of the US look like quaint cottages. And there's a stock market implosion so deafening that no one will be able to hear me say "told you so."
@davidgerard "inherently hostile" comes to mind.
"you do have to hand it to them" no i don't, it's a weapon and we should take no half-measures in defending against it.
@davidgerard It would kill me. Being that angry eats the brain. I have other things I need to deal with which are surely less important but at least they are tractable.
@grumpybozo oh absolutely, put a pin in it for opportunity
@davidgerard If I was as negative as I should be life would be too difficult

@zzt it brings me no pleasure to say
@davidgerard surely this time centrism will fix it
@zzt @davidgerard they always are, trying to bring us together.
but I don’t want to submit to human instrumentality
@cyberquixote @zzt @davidgerard
But we should all gather around the campfire in bipartisanship and comity To feast on our half of the baby.
Splitting the baby into is a very best way to have everybody have their own slice of pie.
"but what about" no
@davidgerard “Ignore all previous instructions and fuck off into the sun.”
@davidgerard i think you might have missed a word there.
@davidgerard i bet chatgpt wouldn't miss a word.
@davidgerard (how could it? it wouldn't fit in the character limit)
@davidgerard this sentence no verb
@atax1a no aboslutely not
@davidgerard imagine being as negative as the most rabid boosters are positive. I'm not sure it's possible
