“If”

They will. Once the age check at an OS level is implemented, the next level is to enforce that this check then use a verification service. And then to make this information available to sites upon access.

FUTO Keyboard might be willing to share data. Its another open Open source keyboard. License purchase optional but encouraged.

The real ethical question here is, is there only one round of trolleys?

Because if this is a one and done question, then obviously I go for the one person.

But if it’s possible at any point somebody comes along and has to run the experiment again after me, then if I leave an infinitely expanding number on one side, all it would take is one sadistic person to wipe out a incalculable amount of life.

In which case, I take the track with two people. And again, it is a question of repetition whether or not doing it once means that it won’t happen next time or if this will continue with every cycle.

Its great until something overloads the USB bus or you just have a random driver reset cause it to reload, and you hear that disconnect/reconnect noise while something was writing to the array.

There will be physical labor to get done. For a few decades at least until someone figures out the roomba of automatons.

So there must be some labor force. It will just be a much larger unemployed and underemployed contingent. And with extreme overabundance, horrible downward pressure on wages.

And so what labor remains gets squeezed, and the rest battle for the job of garbage man, or babysitter.

Honestly real economies have many factors, but I’m really just saying that absent controls, the system by design approaches a hellscape at lightspeed.

With every dime they can scrape together.

Then with debt and labor.

Then with lifelong debt.

No hyperbole, by design the system is setup to bleed people dry for every penny, not to create thriving nations or economies with many wide participants. We have been hacking away at hard won safeguards for 4 decades now, and the consequences are coming.

If enough of the people with the means own a majority of the assets, have little to no regulation to stop them, eventually you will be getting paid in WalmartCoin and redeem it exclusively at WalmartTown where the goods are all priced so you can never afford enough, just barely enough to get by.

We did it 100 years ago, and had to trust bust and outlaw it. But I guess we’re in for a do over.

My grocery store app has 0 need for “AI” in it.

And yet, someone wasted over 100k I’m sure to implement it in a rush.

All so a shitty LLM can surge electricity prices and halucinate what aisle you can find canned fruits on.

You know, the thing the search bar did, perfectly, every time, in a millisecond, with a thousandth the power draw.

They just have all the money, and charge you to extract infinite interest on all the assets they now control.

VC is buying up as much water rights and housing as it can by the way.

Just an unrelated detail.

Set up a recurring donation. Lemmy and Mastodon are great and I want them to stick around.

Jesus Christ. We need regulations on corporate LLM use NOW.
