Uh, sure.

"Given the real world long lines and mostly empty shelves that real world Marxism produces, you might want to fund a different topic for the marxist propaganda."
Especially when readers like you subscribe to capitalist propaganda. There is no argument that "real world Marxism produces" what you say, only that communist systems have failed (primarily because they are as corrupt as modern Republican politics is now).
But to solve these problems, we don't need "Marxism" and we certainly don't need your bogeyman, we only need responsible regulation of capitalism to ensure free markets. This a problem of lack of free markets.
"Sorry, real life marxism is a bit different than ivory tower marxism. "
Sorry, there is no "real life marxism", your example is failed soviet communism. Not even true communism. And the USSR failed by a combination of Afganistan war and Chernobyl. Not that facts matter to you.
"Today we see a loss of faith in marxism in youtube videos when someone from venezuela or north korea visit costco, an american grocery store."
No we don't.
"Hell, European socialists are overwhelmed with joy."
Why shouldn't they be? Their standards of living are higher than ours. Americans love socialism when they're cashing the checks. They only hate it when you're cashing yours. Americans are unique in their view that hurting your quality of life is just as good as helping theirs. Sound familiar, dmb?
This is not a fast food issue, it's an unconstrained capitalism issue. As competitors are forced out, buyers must be willing to pay more. Make sure you can exploit that real-time, monopolists get rich and everyone else can starve.
This is an inevitable consequence of Reagan and modern Republican power. Increasingly, McDonalds will be all people can afford, then not even that. And you aren't protected by preparing your own meals either, groceries get the same treatment...as does the rent on the apartment you increasingly can't afford. All the effort goes into enabling the rich to take money at increasing rates.
They won't be able to improve it because they don't know what "improve" means.
Current AI development is about scaling up, it is no longer about modeling and emulating the mind. AI companies do not care one bit about developing what laypeople would consider "improvements", they only care about getting rich by getting "there" first. Who cares how many die, that's your problem.
I also think it's naive to say that AI researchers "don't know" how modern AI, i.e. transformer models, work. They know, it's just impossible to predict results given the immense size of the models. What they don't know, because they don't care, is why models generate such catastrophic results at times. Once upon a time, AI research would consider this their highest priority, not anymore.
And you can't separate the models from the applications that use and direct the models. That's where the shit really starts to stink. Remember that when part of the prompt reads "...make sure to kill mostly brown ones". Hyperbolics aside, actions that would result in criminal and civil penalties if done by humans will be fair game for AI, a fact executive management and billionaires are eager to exploit.
"This means that we don’t understand how models do most of the things they do.”
Models don't "do things". They also don't "write words". Whoever said this is not part of "us, the model's developers".
Now that sociopath neural networks exist, what we need now is to have them enabled to do anything, unsupervised and unaccountable. We can sell it by saying it "can work towards your goals 24/7" when we really mean it can help you destroy the people you hate, until it destroys you instead.
If an always-on AI can do "productive" things on your behalf, doesn't that show a failure to identify work you need to do? It's questionable why such tools should even exist, but we all know how quickly these things will abuse their access to do unacceptable things. As intended by their creators.
"Make no mistake. We are giving birth to a new species."
No, we are not. AI is deterministic, it is merely software and has none of the characteristics of a "species".
"Imagine a Mensa member locked in a room full of toddlers."
I would rather not, but Mensa is mostly about narcissism. AI is not narcissistic, it is sociopathic.
"Post-AGI? I'll give human usefulness 90 days. Tops."
You won't last that long.
And after it kills people, it can be turned off...then right back on.
The hysterical thing is that the models don't matter, the agents do. Not talking about those though.
The irony is that while some in the industry advocate a moratorium on model development, the moratorium should be on agent deployment, what those same companies want to accelerate. The government should be supporting development of non-sociopathic models while banning deployment of software that does damage on behalf of bad AI decisions.
Those are the people you voted for.
As long as it's ICE doing the killing, what's the difference between 1000 and 100,000? DOGE is about efficiency after all.
Governments are people.
Sounds like you're not defending Access so much as ODBC.
It's mighty convenient for you that your claim makes it impossible for you to provide evidence of this outrageous claim.
... is not let AI get into the hands of people like Bill Gates. That, however, is impossible.

This is the most important thing for people to understand. Built into this data, carefully designed to mislead, is a misrepresentation as to what's important. Injuries can be reduced just my eliminating driving entirely but that doesn't make Waymo money. But Waymo ruining YOUR driving is perfectly OK. And they do.
I think it's hysterical that people think insurance companies will force drivers off the road. They will certainly raise prices as much as they can, but they will NOT destroy one of their most profitable markets. Waymo doesn't need a policy from State Farm.
