They are right when it comes to understanding LLMs the LLM definitely understands LLMs better than they do. I’m sure an AI could have a perfect IQ test. But has a really hard time drawing a completely full glass of wine. Or telling me how many R’s are in the word strawberry. Both things a child could do.

Until you ask them how many R’s are in strawberry.

From my small experience as an a American. Netherlands had some really reliable transit. Never had a problem in France though definitely not as nice as Netherlands. Italy was definitely hit and miss depending on the city but loved the high speed rail from Naples to Rome. Germany was reliable during October Fest so I assume at least Munich is reliable if it was good at that time. Though I wouldn’t say I used much in Germany.

Other countries I’ve been to but I’ll just list cities for these because I didn’t go much anyone else for them: Prague, Budapest, Vienna

I can’t say there was a single country/city here that had transit that was worse than the best transit in the US. Was it all perfect? No. But compared to fucking Amtrak that literally has to stop for hours at a time while we wait for other freight trains to pass. Literally multiple times during a single train ride.

Some countries may not be the first meme. But what major city in Europe has worse local transit than say Chicago or New York? Or worse heavy rail than Amtrak? Just honestly asking.

I don’t think anything could be worse than Amtrak.

You know you could have responded to something I said instead of essentially going: “nuh uh!” And spamming a bunch of links.

Like, do you want to have a conversation or do you just want to vommit garbage in response?

I explained to you how Lenin used the word to refer to the capitalist class and WHY the capitalist class was the “middle class” in Tsarist Russia. Do you want to discuss that? Do you have a counter argument? Or do you just Google “Lenin/stalin bad” and copy and paste a bunch of random links you clearly did not even read.

Like, gee, I can’t wait to read allthatsinteresting.com. I’m sure that will tell me more about Lenin than reading the actual books he wrote. Glad I don’t read books because I have allthatsinteresting.com!!!

You seem to be confusing the meaning of “middle class” of bourgeoisie. This did not refer to what we think of today as “middle class”. This was in reference to a pre-revolutionary fuedal societies like Tsarist Russia. The “Upper class” being the structures of the monarch. The middle class being the bourgeoisie (the capital owning class). And the lowest class the proletariat (working class).

Obviously when we use bourgeoisie today we do not have a Monarchy. So it is still referring to the capitalist class. Revolutions were fought against monarchs that were replaced by the bourgeoisie (capitalist class). Lenin believed that instead of having a revolution to capitalism from fuedalism, that Russia could transition from a fuedal to socialist society and skip the rule of the bourgeoisie.

Lenin was not “targeting” what we think of today as “the middle class”. If someone told you that without explaining the above history they were either lying or ignorant.

Billionaires are by definition Bourgeoisie as their wealth is earned by ownership of the means of production and not from a wage as workers are. That’s why people like me still use the term “Bourgeoisie” today specifically to avoid confusion with what “middle class” means today. The bourgeoisie is a well defined term by Marxist-Leninist to mean “the capitalist class”.

The software likely disengaged because the wall was so close it could not function. It would be the same as if an object suddenly covered up the camera while you were driving. It would turn off the autopilot/FSD or whatever they call it. (At least I hope it would)

This is likely what happened. The software hit an invalid state that defaulted to disengaging the autopilot feature. Likely hit an impossible state as the camera could no longer piece the “wall” parts of the road with the actual road as it got too close.

Likely an error condition occured that would happen in the same way if an object suddenly covered the camera while driving. It would be even more concerning if the autopilot DIDN’T disengage at that point.

Excuse me. He’s also a top ranked PoE player that doesn’t know how open his inventory.

I love the justification for only using cameras is “humans do it”. Like, are we not supposed to use any technology that humans can’t replicate? Maybe we shouldn’t fly planes because humans can’t fly. It’s such a dumb reason.

The irony here is that violence is a necessary action when the bourgeoisie (Billionaires) leaves the working class no other option. But what he’s saying is that state violence is justified to maintain the status quo.

The comment your replying to (or meant to) has to be being purposely dense. There is obviously a difference between being a communist, having a communist party take power, and “achieving” communism. No one with a brain would think the OOP was talking about the last use of the word in that sentence.

It’s a common “dumb guy that thinks they’re being smart” take because they haven’t actually ever read a book in their life. They just read the definition of communism once.

Communist can run a society that is not yet achieved communism. Not sure if you’re being purposely dense or not.

Also, currency does not define a society as capitalist. We’ve have currency long before capitalism ever existed.

Yes. That’s my point. But people that hate AI hate it because of how it is being used under capitalism. For a lot of people “it is easier image the end of the world than the end of capitalism”. Hence why they hate AI. They don’t hate it inherently.

Technological advances are supposed to improve peoples lives. Allow them to work less and enjoy things more often.

It’s why we invented a wheel. It’s why we invented better weapons to hunt with.

“Tech for techs sake” is enjoying the technology and ignoring its impact on people’s lives.

When a society creates a massive sum of information accessible to all, trains new technology on data created by that society, and then a small subset of that society steals and uses that data to profit themselves and themselves alone; I don’t know what else you call that but exploitation.

Advances in AI should make our lives better. Not worse. Because of our economic model we have decided that technological advances no longer benefit everyone, but hurt a majority of the population for the profits of a few.

The world doesn’t allow us to disconnect tech and capitalism. Why should we be happy about the tech just for the techs sake? People aren’t adverse to the tech. They are against its use to further our exploitation.

Star Trek was space communism. So we’d have to kill the capitalist first.

We’re heading more towards Star Wars and the Empire. See you in the resistance.

The point is remove the user “search” experience. Where a user selects options from page results. Yes it is already heavily optimized for directing the user where they want them to go. But AI is even better at it. With every prompt the AI is directing you directly. Its basically turning the Internet into TikTok scroll instead of like YouTube subscriptions or search for example. They want your entire interaction with the web to be through AI and it’s interfaces. This is significantly more powerful.

When was the last time you search something on TikTok? You just scroll and like stuff sometimes. Your experience is entirely crafted by TikTok.

This is what they want for AI for your ENTIRE online life. You will watch videos, research, shop, all from an AI that directly influences all of your decisions.

The entire point of websites is keeping you on their app or website for as long as possible. The best way to do that is to in the future direct everything you do from a single app. It’s a big reason the US wanted to force China to sell TikTok. US capitalist where having their profits hurt by it.

That’s not how these models work. It’s not like OpenAI was sharing all their source code. If anything OpenAI benefits from DeepSeek because they released their entire code.

OpenAI is an ironic name now ever since Microsoft became a majority share holder. They are anything but “open”.

Profit potential. Think of AI as one big data collector to sell you shit. It is significantly better at learning things about you than any metadata or cookies ever could.

If you think of this AI push as “trying to make a better product” it will not make much sense. If you think of the AI push as “how do I collect more data on all my users and better directly influence their choices” it makes a lot more sense.

AI is not there to be useful for you. It is there to be useful for them. It is a perfect tool for capturing every last little thought you could have and direct to you perfectly on what they can sell you.

It’s basically one big way to sell you shit. I promise we will follow the same path as most tech. It’ll be useful for some stuff and in this case it’s being heavily forced upon us whether we like it or not. Then it’s usefulness will be slowly diminished as it’s used more heavily to capitalize on your data, thoughts, writings, code, and learn how to suck every last dollar from you whether you’re at work or at home.

It’s why DeepSeek spent so little and works better. They literally were just focusing on the tech.

All these billions are not just being spent on hardware or better optimized software. They are being spent on finding the best ways to profit from these AI systems. It’s why they’re being pushed into everything.

You won’t have a choice on whether you want to use it or not. It’ll soon by the only way to interact with most systems even if it doesn’t make sense.

Mark my words. When Google stops standard search on their home page and it’s a fucking AI chat bot by default. We are not far off from that.

It’s not meant to be useful for you.
