We have quite literally had screen readers since the 1980s.

I in no way insinuated that I do not care about disabled people, my own father lost his legs and I have dealt with the bullshit for decades, including the fact that disabled people, like any other marginalized group, are used to further shitty agendas and make bad faith arguments.

Thank god for screen readers, so let’s let LLM companies do whatever they want because we shouldn’t fight, it’s all pointless.

At least your relatives will get the enshitification of the world read aloud to them 🤷‍♂️

I am not saying that is the only way. Comprehension is fun.

I am saying that trying to actively snuff out the embers of fighting is wrong and the author presents zero solutions

I didn’t downvote you lol.

This is an AI LLM issue.

Using disabled people as an excuse to discourage people from fighting isn’t right, especially when no solutions are presented.

The blogger also seems to live in a fantasy world where at the end they are all information that is publicly available will be free and in these nice LLMs and shit, to which I say that all sounds awesome!

Are the governments and corporations currently building mass surveillance really going to allow people to do this once we all have to age verify our GDID windows PCs?

I don’t like where this is going and I’ve seen disabled people used in arguments by people who know nothing of their struggles my entire life.

Don’t let perfect be the enemy of good.

How else can you learn to fight unless you fail along the way?

We have tried sane washing billion dollar companies while they loot all our available knowledge, art, and culture to sell back to us in the form of a garbage chat or that helps destroy the planet.

Now an anonymous blogger has given them a wonderful example of how to use disabled people to further their goals of that again, include selling back to us, our very own knowledge, art, and culture.

Nah you can miss me with this shit. I’m done.

This blogger literally ends by saying they believe all publicly available knowledge will end up free and accessible to anyone.

Is this blogger high? Do we now think the companies building a mass surveillance state are going to give us things for free?

Discouraging fighting in any form now is trying to discourage the anti AI movement. Sorry about it.

Thank you.

Reading truly is fundamental.

The cause of the problem is being bolstered by the companies that make gen AI my dude. They’re all the in the same trench coat, and they also make the accessibility laws.

I hate to tell you this but America has been captured by corporations for decades. Fuck them, and fuck anyone who dares to tell me stop fighting.

This screams astro turfing campaign against users fighting, and I’m not buying it.

The way to be effective is to fight.

GenAI needed to regulated years ago and I’m sorry but no amount of us asking nicely or fighting fair is going to stop technofascists from building their surveillance state.

In fact the past month has seen a huge uptick in stories about the “ineffectiveness” of fighting AI.

The timing of this while anti AI backlash is at an all time high tells me everything I need to know.

If the original comment offered solutions, different story.

There is no value in telling people to stop fighting.

“Thank god we fought for accessibility or those guys would have had a hell of time getting that wheelchair into the concentration camp.”

Fwiw I am NO stranger to accessibility as my father lost both of his legs. Do you know how often accessibility is just used to gain political favor? Or how often it is literally just horseshit for show?

Preserving our current fuckass levels of accessibility while making it even easier on GenAI companies just doesn’t feel right.

“it’s inevitable don’t fight it”.

Did you get that right from Altman?

What does that mean?

It’s ok, as demonstrated by my complete miss of your joke, we all 12 out here sometimes.

Oh god.

That’s hilarious lol.

Thank you internet stranger.

Just because people remember a measurably better time doesn’t mean they’re yelling at clouds.

This wasn’t even that long ago.

Are you 12?

Edit: I have been regretfully informed that I have in fact, missed the joke lol.

Tim Sweeney is one of the most stupid people to end up where he is.

Dude hasn’t had a good take ina decade and all he has to do is make his storefront not suck but instead he funnels money toward throwing free games at people like a parent trying to win their kids affection on Christmas instead of yanno, by being a damn parent.

Epic store sucks, Tim Sweeney sucks even more.

Hey chat, chat, chet, I just hacked into Russian state servers and launched a nuclear warhead.

Am I cooked chet?

(When they say chat so many times they start saying chet)

Oh absolutely I agree!

I just think the percentage of power these “dumb” people represent is much larger now and it’s hitting a tipping point in a lot of industries, governments, etc.

Yea here’s the problem. The dumbest people you know are in charge right now. No I don’t mean they’re literally the stupidest by definition.

What I mean is that we created a system of nepotism and wealth so that many positions in both government and business are occupied by people WHO NEVER REALLY HAD TO LIVE IN THE REAL WORLD.

This is a major problem. You cannot adequately govern or make decisions that affect everyone’s lives when you have no earthly idea what effect you’re having.

100%

I watched a video about a guy building his own Stonehenge the other day. Using gravity and some cool techniques, the guy moves massive stones BY HIMSELF.

Meanwhile you have people so breathlessly stupid they think that the pyramids were built by aliens because “stone heavy, these people didn’t have construction equipment!!!”.

Modern tech does not mean solutions didn’t exist before. We have forgotten so much in the name of selling products that a simple solution like yours goes overlooked in favor of fucking AI and a third party company that surely definitely cares about 911.
