Benanav vs Morozov on the Political Economy of AI. Now, this will definitely be quite a read...!
"Choosing among available paths may widen or contract the field of possibilities. Some futures are rendered easier to realize; others are effectively foreclosed; and people’s understandings of what matters shift as they move forward in time—much as in Morozov’s own account of technological worldmaking. The difference is that, in my framework, this process is understood from the outset as political because it unfolds under conditions of scarcity that force collective choice among rival futures.
What is puzzling about Morozov’s critique is that this political core disappears from view. A framework designed to organize conflict over investment—to make trade-offs visible, contestable, and binding when not everything can be pursued at once—is recast as a system of administrative closure that would prematurely discipline experimentation. His analysis is not simply a misunderstanding of my proposed framework but a reversal of its intent: It reads an account meant to politicize worldmaking as an attempt to suppress it."

Why rejoice in the misfortune of others
One way to feel my social status improving is if someone else lowers theirs. And so, when I see someone mess up in ways that cause them to lose face, and thus lose social status, I can feel a burst of satisfaction as my own status is raised, at no cost to me.

The counter-power is you and us. The idea that an opposition political party can regulate the influence of the financial markets is illusory. Pension funds like #BlackRock or #Vanguard (whose financial weight represents the famous 1% of the population) crush any attempt.
A parallel chamber made up of elected representatives chosen by lot could become a counter-power, but coercion would quickly suffocate it.We are the only ones who can protect ourselves from the #pandemics, of #ClimateChange and #Famine.
Does this mean that we have failed? In the past and in the present, we have talked about permanent revolution, as in France. That's why so many social movements refuse to join this or that dominant or emerging political movement.
Some see this as childish, candid idealism.Yet, in the face of the dehumanisation of our society, mainly to the benefit of the market values attributed to our health and the air and water we breathe, this act of resistance is essential and life-saving. Fortunately, we have not forgotten that it brings us closer to our social identity, which is characteristic of our species.
However disorganised these movements and our movements may be, however isolated these hashtags may be, we are the #CounterPower -
The ‘false prophet’ v the pope: Argentina faces clash of ideologies in election
In one corner of the ring stands #Javier #Milei, 52, self-described former tantric sex coach, outsider #anarcho-#capitalist and #frontrunner in Argentina’s upcoming presidential elections
In the other, his compatriot #Pope #Francis, 86, world champion of the poor, repeatedly derided by Argentina’s likely next president as “a fucking communist” and “the representative of the evil one on Earth” for promoting the doctrine of “#social #justice” to aid the underprivileged.
Milei, a political unknown until 2020, has pledged to wage a “cultural battle” to transform Argentina into a #libertarian paradise where capitalist efficiency replaces social assistance, taxes are reduced to a minimum and cash-strapped individuals are allowed to sell their body organs on the open market.
From Rome, Pope Francis has expressed grave concern about the rise of such callous policies in his home country. “The extreme right always reconstructs itself, it is the triumph of #selfishness over #communitarianism,” he said in a television interview in March when asked about #Argentina’s upcoming #elections

This is a brilliant, even if utterly grim, essay. The takeaway should be that we’re all in this together: any “prepper” fantasy you have about how you’re gonna ride out climate change or societal mayhem is just that. We either survive together, or you die alone.

We talk plenty about #liberty and #equality, but who will champion #community?
I believe neglecting this political and cultural virtue is central to why we live in such an atomized age.
In short, a thick sense of community has been in decline for many of us during the past half-century plus, and a big part of that has to do with how we’ve come to treat the concept of community so abstractly.
