This is known in the business as the Maddow Defense.

Way mo fire than you bargained for

I mean, you make a decent point. But, using the [I admit, arguably appropriate] term "luddites" just makes you sound like a pretentious, wine sniffing prick.

When AI throws tens of millions of people out of work...

You mean 6.1 million, right?

People are slowly waking up to the truth that this was never about labor costs. The Chinese government deliberately built up their industrial capacity because production becomes power over time. They used every trick in the book to become attractive to manufacturing. For a while, cheap labor was one of the tools they had, but Chinese labor hasn't been cheap for a long time now. Sometimes now it is even more expensive than American labor, but we still can't compete because we've lost those skills, that knowledge, those networks.

WW2 was over before it started because America had the industrial capacity to outbuild the rest of the world combined, in every category. WW3 will go exactly the same way for exactly the same reasons, but it this time it won't be America.

This is only any issue if you're nuking and doing a complete install. You know you don't have to do that, right?

This page claims over 400,000 recordings but links to a listing of only 187,034 audio files. I'm guessing the discrepancy is the girth of the suit: IA agreed to take down the files that the plaintiffs could prove were theirs and no money changed hands.

I don't give a shit if some Russian/Kazakh/Malaysian bot farmer wants to take over my phone.

So you do no banking on your phone? Unlikely.

For the 99% of people that do in fact use a phone for banking, protection from lower level criminals is invaluable. For most people there is real financial loss possible from a phone being taken over, at the very least to monitor banking access mechanisms.

Let's compare, shall we?

Little Bobby Tables:

• No framework required: conventional database entry + payload only
• Wreaks havoc in an instant
• Total size: 32 bytes

This:

• Downloads ollama (672 MB, on Windows)
• Downloads a 14 GB data file for the model itself
• Requires a bare minimum of 16 GB of VRAM—and still runs like absolute molasses, eating up all resources
• Total size: 15 GB

Personally, I'm on Team Tables here. Maybe in a decade or three this will be practical.

Unless Trump was the one who personally built all these models that companies are trying to replace workers with, I don't think he's much of the reason there are so many more people out of work.

I heard FAT12 had it beat for raw performance.

ChatGPT making up things and incorrectly following policy would merely be in line with the current editorial pool, who ignores policy when it suits them and fabricates material if an article has any kind of political content.

My estimate is that approximately 7 billion people are alive today who would not be alive without oil and gas.

No, SCOTUS did not rule that. They didn't need to - the word "corporation" literally means "person".

What the Citizens United ruling really said was that humans didn't lose their political and first amendment rights when they work together with other humans using a structured organization.
