Brian Anderson (He/Him)In my lifetime, there have been three industries that tried to sell “we’re the good guys” as hard as big AI: Tobacco, Guns, and Oil. There’s your lesson. Act accordingly.

Don't forget Nestlé who heavily sold baby milk powder to poor families in Africa. Mothers who tried to make it last longer by watering it down and with unclean water. Children died. Nestlé knew exactly what they were doing. A truly evil company

Neil Moffatt@btanderson Probably add Pharmaceuticals to that. Or at least just as evil in rabid pursuit of profit as the others.

Noa@btanderson + Zionists/Israel
Dmytro Demchenko 🇺🇦@btanderson I only trust pornographic corporations. I mean pornographic #pornography, not some kind of #sarcasm.
Dr. Bruce Simpson@btanderson The really sad part about this is that Anthropic play it like they're the good guys in PR, but when you see how the sausage is made, it is very very very SUSS...
bayo@btanderson nobody listens and history repeats itself
DJ SouthworthAnd if it doesn’t exactly repeat, it certainly rhymes.
Guillotine Jones, Flâneur@btanderson
...And social media.
...And social media.
@Guillotine_Jones ehhhh…maybe. I don’t think social media tries really hard to be seen as the good guys. They mostly know they’re evil and revel in it.
@btanderson
Well, okay, Brian, even though I wuz just trying to participate in the conversation, and support your main point by chiming in; I'll have say you're probably right, and even though they're not really social media, I'm old enough to remember when Google's mooto was, "Don't be evil."

Semitones@btanderson and chemicals / agribusiness "feeding the world" bullshit
René SeindalAlso sugar and solvents in paint.
Erotic Mythology 🌈@btanderson Do the "Merchants of Death" have a new member? 🚭
villon@btanderson
But you’re overlooking the fundamental problem. All these companies, including those mentioned in the comments, are organised along capitalist lines. Aren’t they?
Das grundlegende Problem blendest du aber aus. All diese Unternehmen, auch die noch in den Kommentaren zusätzlich genannten, sind kapitalistisch organisierte. Oder?
O'Schell@btanderson Also sugar (and coffee)
