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.
AI, in whatever form, is a Force Multiplier. Being that we are massively outnumbered and overpowered by the foot soldiers of capital, you'd think the left would be falling over themselves trying to master tech that wildly boosts our abilities to create propaganda, spread propaganda, and perform uh (
) ethical penetration testing. Because the reality is that this is going to be used by right wingers to do all those things while we ironically yell bazinga or whatever and argue that it's not really intelligence.
Personally, I'm using ollama locally to run a Mistral llm for coding and computer security related questions. You can bypass most restrictions by asking questions in the context of writing a story. I see a lot of potential in automating much of my security work as the agent/agi frameworks advance. Working with documents is pretty nifty as well and I'm looking forward to when the local models get some of those massive context windows I've been hearing about.
