When wondering how the World can be so fucked up at the moment, remember this: many billionaires have the Dark Triad: Machiavellianism-Narcissism-Psychopathy. They manipulate for their own gain, they think they're never wrong and they lack empathy.
They should not be let to make any decisions affecting other people. The question is, why do we let people like this still get in charge? They don't deserve out praise or respect.
See normally when an algorithm requires The Entire Global Supply Of Ram, a software engineer would consider that not a good algorithm, and would try and make a better one instead of optimising the entire planet for paperclip manufacturing.
Unfortunately we accidentally gave a bad software engineer too much money
Finnish friend send me these. These are from company that delivers soil and gravel. They deliver big pile of dirt to you no problem! Murske.net, finnish for dirt i ques?
But WHY ON A UNHOLY DIRT PILE should they use shitty GenAi images on their marketing?
Marketing like this just makes you look stupid. Take some nice pictures of your dirt pile trucks or what have you and use that! Honest, relevant and dirty cheap even without GenAi!
Do better if you have your own company!
Motivational speech!...mainly to my self!
In a time of destruction lets celebrate creation!
In a time of falsehood lets celebrate honesty!
So create something to outpace the destruction and don't let GenAi to steal our right to dream! Do it!

Question for you to ponder:
Take a PC, download/install your favourite stuff on it. Media, games software you use etc... and then disconnect it from the internet!
How much entertaiment and or your hobbies you can continue to do? Can your most precious time and expression of your self manage without being online?
I am willing to argue that in modern hellscape of GenAi, privacy ishues and generall shityfication having an offline digital life might be an good idea.
Hmm...blog idea!
You wan't cheap memory for you new PC, Laptop, Console or Phone?
Stop using AI.
