    reposting my hot AI take

    Just because capital can't possibly imagine more than 5 minutes in the future, and just because capital can only speak profit and couldn't fathom progress for the sake of progress, doesn't mean that AI isn't real and scary. The technological hurdles are similar things that have been overcome in past technologies, the incentive to replace workers with machines is just as enticing as it's ever been, and if we've seen noise and fervor like this now with this little of the total reward reaped, expect to continue to see this much noise and fervor until the last drop of blood has been squeezed out.
