Alternatively, are there any publications engaging with the future potential of AI in a communist society, or in the lead up to a communist society? A lot of forum discussion used to pertain to the cybersyn project in Chile. But I feel like the LLM/ML/AI discussion is currently on a reactionary back foot.
If you've used it, I'm curious as to what potentials do you see from it? Where is it being used effectively where are you encountering it where you go, damn that sucks.
Where it sucks: Every single chatbot and phone tree when calling a support line ends without speaking to a flesh-and-blood agent. It makes me want to throw my phone into the woods.
Where it rules: Fulfilling bullshit work requests like OKRs with AI-generated drivel. Translation work. It tutored me through a Grad-level Statistics class that was all Asynchronous.
I used midjourney or whatever to make my obligatory images of Drake with Trotsky but it got so boring
I tried fucking around with AI dungeon too and it's just complete dogshit
They should be able to find ways to use this tech but trying to make it do everything seems to be all they want to do it's so lazy
There are a lot of applications for AI that has nothing to do with art and which the average person doesn't really need to worry about - things like number crushing, boring statistics stuff, etc. It's just that the bazinga brains over at those corporations felt the need to make it into the hot new trend, even though for most people it's at best a novelty that you'll get bored of in a day, and a plagiarism machine at worst.
