Here everyone, please leave some for others.

Right most people I meet day to day are maybe a bit interested but don’t care much.

To me this is a chicken vs egg situation. I think a lot of people see this as the media responding to people.

I think it’s the other way around and I’m trying to understand why. To me, it looks certain that the media is agenda setting with AI. I watched this with the war on terror, anti immigration views, Ebola, imaginary waves of crime that never existed. I can see the headlines, the tone, the framing are all so similar. I just don’t understand why. It’s a powerful tool, my default opinion is always that this technology does balance some power in society and so by keeping it as a tool of the rich while the rest reject it is important culturally.

Yea? How’s America doing? You guys winning yet? Any victory in the foreseeable future?

Extortion? How so?

Don’t care.

Ok good example. The left took a hard stance. The right adopted it. A lot of right wing people made a lot of money with it regardless of its practicalness. They used that money to invest in each other.

The left somehow has become Luddites and they’re falling behind yet don’t see how that mentality is holding hobbling their progress

I know, trump supporters say the same shit when you tell them they’re acting like clowns too

Yea I agree fully that having individuals that own the one or two platforms is bad.

I don’t think much of the fear and panic is warranted though.

Honestly view these headlines the same way you’d view headlines about any other bullshit hysteria that media drums up. It’s all so weirdly familiar.

It’s happening in the same way that caravans of illegal immigrants are approaching the border

Right, I see a handful of articles about the same handful of people. The hysteria is the media. Absolutely floored how no one else sees that the media is driving a weird campaign against AI. It’s creating opinions.

I’m not saying AI is great. But I am saying fucking media is doing a thing and more people should be asking why
