    @pluralistic Do you think Zitron&amp;#39;s &amp;quot;midwit&amp;quot; is smarter than a dimwit? That&amp;#39;s the way I read it. Clearly not praise, either way.

    @nyrath Wow, one data center right here in Utah, in nearby West Jordan. If I see those dogs wandering around downtown, I&amp;#39;m heading the other direction.

    During an ML class, the instructor thanked me for responding, then said, &amp;quot;But who knows, maybe you&amp;#39;re a Claude agent or something.&amp;quot; I replied, &amp;quot;More a clod than a Claude&amp;quot;. Kind of funny

    @pluralistic &amp;quot;For these AI boosters, the point isn&amp;#39;t to create an AI that can do the work as well as a person – it&amp;#39;s to condition the world to accept the lower-quality work that will come from a chatbot.&amp;quot; It&amp;#39;s like &amp;quot;you get what you pay for&amp;quot; is being used as justification for terrible quality, instead of warning people away from suspiciously-cheap products.

    @pluralistic@mamot.fr Plus: &quot;AI is the asbestos in the walls of our technological society, stuffed there with wild abandon by a finance sector and tech monopolists run amok.&quot; Evocative enough to make me cough.
