post by Rutger Bregman (@rutgerbregman.comโฌ) reads: Absolutely brilliant piece about the Left's TOTAL blindness on AI. Their dismissal of AI risks mirrors how climate deniers treat CO2. Will probably get a lot of nastiness for this on Bluesky, but I guess that's part of the same problem.
i shouldnโt give this piece any more attention than it has already garnered but i feel like it is worth pointing out some flaws in the argument/unquestioned assumptions

So SCOTUS, with its fabricated-out-of-thin-air immunity doctrine, has actually made American presidents less accountable than LITERAL royalty.

And the answer is really simple: State funding for art education and artists. I literally get a salary from the government to write books.

But here we are. It's frustrating.

Your work is harming us all (collectively, societally, and within the discipline).
