we've reached the "dont complain about AI because its hyperbolic and only drives people apart, morality isnt a binary!" part of the curve.
imagine resisting anything with even like 5% strength, imagine! if you are a supposedly a critic of this technology, however nuanced, it's on you to make cases and explain how we are going to use something for its benefits without succumbing to it's costs. and right now the cost is total alienation and dispossession in a fascist surveillance dystopia
pitting the usefulness of some feature of this tech against the critics of it's role in growing tech fascism is a misappropriation of radical philosophy. accessibility and translation are noble goals, and their default devaluation by the hegemonic tech world IS a problem!
but if nothing can be done except to walk willingly into the jaws of anthropic and trump then THIS is the major split between us, this is the divisive force, not those tech "vegans" arguing too loudly and annoyingly.
"The state that is so often defended as a means of solving collective action problems is itself a catastrophic collective action problem, with mass murderous consequences. The state suppresses us all, chains us in service to a limited number of tasks. The state rules us, but it always seems easier to fight for control of the state, to struggle to win the lottery for its hamfisted power, than to dissolve its chains."
