Gonzo is My Spirit Animal

This is what's so fucked up about "nothing that requires the labor of others is a human right".

The labor is already being done under capitalism. The laborers are already being underpaid under capitalism.

When you propose removing the greedy profiteers and paying the workers a reasonable wage, people call that "slavery" while they have no problem with the current system.

Younger folk are getting really good at spotting AI slop, to the consternation of marketing execs.

The good news is that if it persists and Gen Z and Gen Alpha continue to scoff at the generated stuff, then marketing departments aiming at them will just have to give up on using it because they won't be able to figure out how to fool their targets with it.

The bad news is that this won't apply to scams and campaigns aimed at older people, so once again we're going to have a situation where the kids will be the ones lunging across the coffee table to stop Mom from giving her financial info to that really obvious fake scam mom oh my god do NOT buy that it isn't even a real thing.

CEO's surround themselves with a bubble of Yes-men who never tell them when they are flat-out wrong. They are so rich, they have brain damage (excessive wealth causes it, look it up), they have lost all ability to empathize with others or see others as humans, and they think of humans as beneathe them. The public doesn't want AI: we can all see it's a scam meant to make people lose their jobs and make the rich richer.

It's just another scam from the tech bros, like NFTs, Google glasses, Bitcoin and cryptocurrency, Second Life and META, Palantir spying on everyone, Tesla and its crappy cars that can't compare at all to what Chinese car companies have at a wayyy lower price... None of these things have benefited regular people, but they've sure made the rich richer. Meanwhile, our govt continues to strip funding from the scientists that will actually help regular people, like the CDC and the World Health Organization, etc.
