Diese Podcast Reihe ist absolut hörenswert! In der fünften Folge geht es um die Gründung rechtslibertärer souveräner polit. System. Balaji Srinivasan propagiert eine virtuelle Parallelwelt im Internet. Die von dort aus in der Realität wirksam werden kann. Viele Flecken, die sich zusammenschließen können. Und ganz unbemerkt Auswirkungen auf die Exekutive (ZB Polizei) und die Gesellschaft haben können.

Tech Bro Topia (5/6) - Disneyland für Auserwählte

Tech-Milliardäre wünschen sich „Freedom Cities“ – Städte nach rein wirtschaftlicher Logik, oder gleich eigene Weltraumkolonien. Doch nicht jeder darf mitmachen.

@kimcrawley 'Taking candy from a baby'...

It's no mystery that abuse of power often relies upon the masses being effectively 'hypnotized', by awe-inspiring unknowns, resulting in obedient subservience. Proffering AI as a miraculous cure for inadequately exercised emotions, along with unfulfilled proficiencies failed by diminishing educational systems, as a prioritized global investment, calls for further investigation - especially where #TechBros working to corner the vital resource of fuel (too much of which, is burning fossil fuels) in the form of #DataCenters.

It's continued #AbuseOfPower for the wealthiest 1% (more .01% now) to further subjugate subservience, in the name of #Capitalism.

Are you telling me the #techbros really think if they throw enough compute at autocomplete, it will generate answers to climate change, life, the universe, and everything?

Proof that a salesman doesn’t need to know anything about the product, he just needs to know how to sell. But falling for your own sales pitch, talk about getting high on your own supply.

Will Hollingsworth is his name

Give him a listen

Talking against a #dataCenter proposal in Ravenna, #Ohio

Speaking eloquently on how he trained the #AI that replaced him, bad #regulations, lying #techBros...

Witty, passionate, persuasive

Will is a #citizen in the finest sense of the word

"I am not a cynic when it comes to #technology. I am believer in #community. I believe that a drop of clean #water for a Ravenna child is worth more than a billion #AI generated images"

👏 👏 👏

I'm annoyed by "tech bros don't understand consent"-jokes.

1. They perpetuate a false notion.

2. They are ableist and only work, because an inability is still seen as more embarrassing and worthy of attack than malice by many.

3. Because many of the people making those jokes probably wouldn't react that well to it being pointed out.
Because just like with racist or homophobic jokes "it's just a joke" as if they have no message and words no meaning.
