Fuck AI

Fuck Google too

In an ideal world more automation would mean benefits for everyone, however it’s currently seen as just another massive wealth transfer. It just takes jobs whether it’s capable or not and leaving us with no options.

All the while sucking up huge amounts of energy and water during a global climate crisis.

It could be less doomsday, but not in any way they'd show in a propaganda movie.

1. reform copyright law to have shorter windows where stuff is out of the public domain

2. create a public AI R&D agency, prevent and criminalize the private development of AI on any non-public domain assets

3. train the public AI on only public domain assets and release it freely to the public for non-commercial use (to run locally and on publicly funded data centers).

4. Grant commercial licenses to businesses. But require majority employee approval (democratically) for any use of AI that would take existing human jobs - would ideally lead to employee buyouts, re-skilling into new jobs, etc.

5. for any licensed profession (lawyers, doctors, engineers in some places, etc) make it so the full burden of any mistake made due to negligent AI use rests on the individual. Like how lawyers keep submitting bad documents to the courts - citing fake cases that AI made up, etc.: they should potentially be disbarred.

I'll buy a TV station and have it only run the Terminator franchise. All day. Everyday.

Sounds a bit like getting the turkey to turn on the oven at christmas.
