I like this meme every time I see it here on anarchist forums.
The Torment Nexus from classic sci-fi novel Don’t Create The Torment Nexus.
I like those note-taking apps that require my location for a better user experience
What do you mean you don’t want location tags in your notes?
I personally hate the “thanks to AI you now can speak to your dead relatives” ones. Especially those ones which try to spin it like a personal story for the developer of the app. Oh shut up, you would sell your own mother for money. And also you are too late to jump on that bandwagon so get lost, we have enough of you leeches.
Literally the exact plot of a black mirror episode.
And it was such a heartbreaking experience, I dont know who saw that and said yes daddy please.
I swear there are some people watching Black Mirror and furiously taking notes
Personally I’d say every single product and service being transparently wrapped in a personal information honeypot
Just give me your ID bro. It’s totally to protect the kids bro.
In case someone needs help:
Uber/Lyft
Airbnb
Bitcoin/Crypotocurrency
ChatGPT/LLMs
Because you have 2/4 general terms:
- Rideshare
- Short term rentals
- Crypto
- LLM
“Rideshare” is also the least accurate term used to dodge regulations. It is just a taxi/cab. You are paying someone to get you from one place to another. They aren’t sharing their ride, they were never going where you are going before you told them to.
Uber/Lyft
Airbnb
Apart from the recently added surge pricing, what else is illegal about these 2?
Forgot “Glorified Pump-&-Dump scheme” (NFT’s)
NFTs are basically Bitcoin and fall under fake money for criminals.
Nah it’s worse. Bitcoin actually has legitimate uses. (Yes, they are a minority of actual usage, but they exist.) NFTs are only useful for speculation, gambling and money laundering.
Stamp collecting for criminals
What would we do without capitalist innovation? Before capitalism, nothing was invented. Look at us now!
What about dystopian surveillance tech?
Isn’t that all of the above?
That is more a fronteir llm thing…
I think quite a bit of what they are trying could with some optimization be run local thus no need to send entire context windows to big tech (sure this hypothetical model would know less trivia but in an agent system would be able to look it up)
But of course big tech and other large orgs like hording all your data for profit.
Self Driving Vehicles
Free Speech Absolutism Platforms
Real Time Raytracing.
