Another convert who can parrot what the detractors said/are saying and that ends with a thoughts-and-prayers socially progressive umm hope this doesn’t exarcerbate hooman differences too much. See you don’t need an LLM to summarize.

The local knitting club and Stanford University use the same flavor of stock/decorative images for their promos and communications.

Can’t believe that the thing that got permanently stale after a month is being put into question. The heresy of it all.

In this specific case (Tailwind Labs) I don't understand this sentiment at all. It was a completely bootstrapped company! Its entire existence is due to the many years of difficult work by its founders.

What exact outcome would correctly align with "good leadership" in your view? It sounds like you think the CEO/cofounder should have "gone down with the ship" here -- how does that help anyone if it means the entire company would have failed?

The last paragraph was a general extrapolation. Strike it from the record then.

It is common in our industry isn't it? There was another startup that fired all their employees then one month later got acquired by CloudFlare. Hard to not see this as fraud in the loose sense of the word.

Yeah I remember the “I fired 75%” getting glossed as how could AI do this to my staff.

> and leading to class wars.

Aren’t we overdue for one anyway.

Class war started about 15 years ago post 2007 financial crisis.

The banks and those who control them all knew where we are headed, so they got a little head start destabilizing democracy.

Once us working class get a grasp of the actual situation, we are going to be so deep in the hole, fighting back is going to be quite difficult when the "asset owners" own and control the majority of the worlds resources, all media, forms of communication, AI, technology infrastructure, mass surveillance. You name it, and they have already made massive efforts to make sure they own it.

They might own it, but at a certain point it only matters whether the concept of ownership means anything to the people who don't "own" it. Ownership only works for those with assets because they have police working for them to protect the concept of ownership to begin with, but that only works at a certain scale of disenfranchisement and lack of upheaval. There isn't that much in-practice stopping a sufficiently angry group from attacking most politicians or even every-day wealthy people in their home. Money talks, but if the amount everyone else earns isn't enough to meaningfully contribute to "owning" anything, then those people would reasonably stop agreeing to respect the idea of property or non-violence. People without assets, facing down a continual decline in living standards from 15 years ago, should evaluate whether the system they operate in does anything beneficial for them at all, or whether it mainly serves those who they serve.

We're starting to see it in discrete bursts with Mangione, the paper warehouse fire, and in other non-violent ways with farmer protests, trucker protests, etc.. which have varying levels of support from regular people depending on their wealth class, background, and inclination to agree with the government.

hence the robotics industry, and their robot enforcers. and drones

That was the moment that business/wealth/rich decided to turn their resources towards directly influencing and controlling government. Reagan and his made up “welfare queens” came shortly after and wealth inequality has sharply risen since. Wildly successful coup.

Bravo!!!

Yup, caught me falling for the propaganda.

1. When the capitalists wage class war: bussiness as usual, some murmuring about widening wealth gap by progressive, diffuse threats to democracy

2. When workers complain about the system: all hands on deck, class war immiment, please think of the children and the stability of society

Yet another IT that will help the average person/democratize something, like the Internet and so on.

Over three thousand comment boxes agree that the cat is out of the bag. No moats.

I haven’t forgot capitalist euphoria from 2023 about cutting worker power off at the root. That’s all these AI Cretins want. Well, that and an unnerving enthusiasm for personifying their AI Golems (Anthr. in particular here).

Sorry to poo poo a post about AI company prompting their underlings to prompt out visualizations.

I think you can safely skip to the last three paragraphs here.

Holy heck, ain’t this the truth.

Really it’s the logical conclusion of living your whole life by studies-show. Studies show that friends are good for you. That’s why I have friends. Studies show that laughing is good for you. That’s why I indulge in merry company. Studies show that dirt is good for you. That’s why I go off the beaten asphalt.

Studies show that researchers are the last ones to learn what everyone already knew. That happens too.

It's more like researchers got paid to do something they love to prove, scientifically, something they believed, happens to be true.
