when i wrote earlier
https://mastodon.social/@blogdiva/117123245023000877that what #techbros #slopfondlers are really selling, with #aislop to their investors, is the #illiteracy of the masses; as the only “arrow goes up” for money-making, i hadn’t read this:
❝The decisions that Harvard makes create a permission structure for other institutions to follow suit… Harvard has made it easier for them to decide that original writing—and, by extension, original thought—isn’t worth the cost.❞

BTW
https://mastodon.social/@blogdiva/117123784602548407#techbros are not selling #usability by getting rid of keyboards. they know that, to fleece you & make you poorer, they have to make sure you give up your creative & intellectual agency & freedom.
today i realized why "Alexa" bothered me so much: the future techbros are selling is one of #illiteracy and uncreativity ―because it’s the only way they believe they can continue making money.
Silicon Valley dont want your kids to know how to read and write.

"Meta has taken a “don’t ask, don’t tell” strategy when it comes to the safety of children on its social media platforms, according to a whistleblower who testified during a landmark trial against the company on Tuesday. He is slated to continue his testimony on Wednesday."

A new book by longtime Bay Area journalist Gil Durán investigates "tech fascism" and its mounting influence on U.S. politics. The Nerd Reich: Silicon Valley Fascism and the War on Democracy follows the rise of Vice President JD Vance, the former venture capitalist whose "outsider" campaign for Senate was bankrolled by the billionaire co-founder of PayPal and Palantir, Peter Thiel. Durán traces the ideological lineage of the current Trump administration back from Vance to Thiel and the far-right-wing monarchist Curtis Yarvin, whose "right-libertarian" political theory has long made the rounds among Silicon Valley elite. "These guys were never libertarians," says Durán. "Now that they are the government, we see their true face: They're fascists, and they're authoritarians."

Ein Statement gegen die sogenannten Techbros und generative KI. Bisher ist er exklusiv auf Bandcamp zu hören und in den nächsten Tagen dann überall von Spotify bis Deezer. Im Laufe der nächsten Wochen kommt höchstwahrscheinlich noch ein Musikvideo dazu… Gebt euch. -
@cykonot And you hit the nail on the head!
While this isn't me arguing for the crumbling of society to the #techbros, I feel that we need to be grounded in the fact that computers cannot think and are only influenced by what is input into it.
Its like Apple trying to make everyone believe that computing is "magical" and that there aren't real complex things happening under the hood.

❝ In an exclusive interview with #CBS News ❞
now that #CBSNews is controlled by the formaldehyded grandpa of #techbros (Larry Ellison), and ran by his favorite sapphic bootlicker (Bari Weiss), it should behoove anybody supporting #Ukraine to stay away from them.
the Ellisons went to war with the former owners, the Redstones, because they weren't #MAGA pro-Trump, pro- #Russia enough

@Wilson6923 Exactly.
So, I'd argue that anyone who is perpetuating these talking points about chatbots or any other AI tool "lying" would in fact been doing the work of tech CEOs and other #techbros who want to replace tools for actual people.

― WHO RADICALIZED YOU?
❝ Almost three-quarters […], 73%, expect #AI to mean fewer #jobs over the next two decades, up from 61% two years ago, and only 5% of Americans think it will create more.
The reversal is what makes this notable. This was the age group most taken with the technology, and it is now among the most sceptical, while overall concern has climbed from 37% in 2021 to 52%. ❞
Most Americans under 30 are now more worried than excited about AI https://thenextweb.com/news/pew-young-adults-ai-jobs-concern-europe-comparison

@thejapantimes How much is too much when taxpayers are penalized more and more, for governments and their crony politicians acting on behalf of #TechBros and #FossilFuels #Oligarchy, for their increasing #Capitalism #greed?
Replace the #Broligarchy with ethical #scientists!

Stecken wir gerade vielleicht in einem blödem verfassungskreislauf:
Demokratie - Ochlokratie - CEO-Monarchie - ...Ab in die Infokalypse:

@tk While there's room for oscillating contractions and expansions in most systems, it's the wild, polaric vacillations caused by the powerful, that are most detrimental and destabilizing.
This is why it's critical to remove the #TechBros and #FossilFuels #oligarchy from power.

RE: https://flipboard.com/@aljazeera/europe-news-usk80vk6z/-/a-zFsQOvyQSo6xSSDXMGOksg%3Aa%3A3199698-%2F0
this is a direct consequence of the #techbros #MAGA #DOGE cuts to #USAID and the #UN. it affected the global healthcare and pandemic readiness team that worked with #WHO. the same team who Trump, during his first coup, didn't believe needed to be a subagency and decided the Navy should absorb and manage.
UN-WHO had declared #ebola controlled in 2017 ―after 7 years of massive changes to public health in Central Africa that were subsidized in part by USAID.
they're back to square one now.

@DelilahTech You may be discounting the cumulative effects, too far removed from the core equation.
The root infrastructure buy out, from the #TechBros and #FossilFuels #Oligarchy, includes systematic removal of humans, that leads to more energy consumed, requiring more energy produced, that they profit more and more from.
This is SOP for more and more #Capitalism, where there's no such thing as 'too much'. So during destabilizing patterns, cornering more root infrastructure = more profits.

@catsalad I'd rather deal with it raining cats and dogs, than tolerate #AI #TechBros fighting to become #FossilFuels #Oligarchy, and their crippling effects.

@thorsten4future Bin ich vollkommen bei dir! Blinde würden ja auch lieber nichts Kriminelles tragen und ihre Daten schützen.
Ich fürchte, das wird uns noch in eine üble Misstrauens-Überwachungsgesellschaft treiben. Und das wollen diese #Techbros ja: Menschlichen Zusammenhalt brechen für ihren faschistischen Todeskult. -

@vicfroh PG&E is employing line inspection drones, instead of lineman employment, potentially undermining generations of economic stability.
Are they, at all, intertwined with Flock?.. Google Maps (Alphabet)?.. more #datamining and #AI in place of organic, human sustainability?..

@zzt I don't remember it but it seems completely logic that #techbros with #TESCREAL ideologies, believing in fascist eugenics, want to prepare people for Soylent Green - I speak about the dystopic film/novel: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soylent_Green No joke, only sarcasm.

Here’s Gil Durán, the author of “The Nerd Reich” on Democracy Today with Amy Goodman. He’s chatting about how #techbros turned #fascist and gave up on #democracy. He highlights the book that started it all and the role of key players like Peter Thiel in the process. https://youtube.com/watch?v=sg7YNUbaV-8&is=-9bMCTF_EniAwTZg #NerdReich #Fascism #Nazis #tech #technology #SiliconValley #USPol #USPolitics

The #techbros “nerd reich” is here, with their billions💰, to take away our democracy, #SiliconValley has turned #fascist - and they are funding the political and social apocalypse.
