🤖🚗 Oh, joy! Another tech utopia where cars drive themselves and humans are just living obstacles. Meanwhile, Waymo's PR team tries to make "Ojai" sound futuristic, but it’s just another car that can’t hear you scream when the AI goes rogue. 🙄

All this insane #TechUtopia , #TheoBro, #WhiteSupremacist , #Misogynist #Tech bullshit is coming from wealthy pricks who are dangerous and UNWELL!

These useless narcissistic delusional #fascist morons have nothing better to do all day but get high and think of fascist nonsense then chat with their #farright bellend mates in government.

What are WE going to do to stop these overgrown toddlers?

I don't have to have a written response, but we ALL need to figure out what to do; what our part will be, and DO it, before we're so fucked it'll be inpossible to fix!

I'm not waiting until their own stupidity fucks them up!

Many innocent people will be damaged or dead by then, because of this nazi lot

Ah, yes, the tech utopia where everyone's #dreams are fulfilled by the magic cloud 🛠️☁️! Just slap an obscure version number on it, add a dash of tech jargon, and voilà, innovation! 🚀 As long as you've got 300GB of #VRAM lying around, of course. 😂

“PETER'S PROPHECY”

by Closer To The Edge on Substack

“Let’s be honest: Peter Thiel isn’t wrestling with Revelation. He’s marketing it. He’s taken the Bible’s most terrifying symbol of absolute power and made it a libertarian brand strategy”

🤖💥 In the eternal struggle of software dev, someone decided to spill the beans on how building multi-agents is a bad idea. Apparently, the "trial and error" method didn't quite deliver the tech utopia promised by your latest PowerPoint. 🚀📉 Spoiler: It’s not as easy as dragging and dropping a few "principles" into your codebase.

Cognition | Don’t Build Multi-Agents

Frameworks for LLM Agents have been surprisingly disappointing. I want to offer some principles for building agents based on our own trial & error, and explain why some tempting ideas are actually quite bad in practice.

Ah yes, the 🪣 Bucket Linear Agent, the latest attempt to make "dev" life easier by throwing indecipherable jargon at the real problem: developers still have to write code. 🖥️✨ Meanwhile, we're promised a utopia where feature flags are as easy to clean up as the crumbs in your keyboard... but only if you use every tool under the sun. 🌞🤦‍♂️

Tech-utopia was often portrayed (by enthusiasts) in the past as one where the robots took care of the mundane boring tasks, leaving the human masters to sit in leisure and pursue their creative artistic endeavours.

From that background, it’s ironic that some of the first successful mass applications of AI have been in fiction-writing and art, which are among the first things people think of as creative endeavours.

#carboncapture #techutopia John Kerry, US climate envoy, on getting to near zero emissions:

“I’m told by scientists that 50% of the reductions we have to make by 2050 or 2045 are going to come from technologies we don’t yet have.”

Et Rumsfeld aurait pu ajouter "At least we know we don't know how to capture and sequester carbon at scale" #techutopia
