@FluentInFinance@mastodon.social There are thousands of people out of work and not a lot of job openings, on top of that wages have been suppressed for decades. It's not consumers causing the recession.

@vonKordke By all means, feel free to die of an easily avoidable death because you think you know better than medical and scientific professionals when it comes to preventing the spread of a fairly well understood infectious disease. Just be sure to do so far away from everyone else.

@votetanille@socialbc.ca LLMs are a scam, and the people building them only have their own interests at heart. They are an excuse for widespread data collection. They aren't actually good at any of the things they are purported to do. At their root, they're probability machines, but their internals can be manipulated to put a finger on the scale in whichever direction the vendor wants. I do not want tax money spent on this. I don't think it's productive or helpful either short term or long term for the Canadian government or Canadian citizens. The environmental cost of operating an "AI" datacenter is too high. The economic cost is too high. The social cost is too high. Canada and Canadians do not need to make all the same mistakes the US is making in order to realize that they are mistakes. Investing in LLMs and the companies that build them is a costly mistake. Even using LLMs is a mistake that will take time to recover from the deskilling it eventually causes.
