Precht insinuiert hier das Bild einer "ursprünglich proletarischen Linken" mit einem "derben und martialischen Jargon" als Gegenstück zur heutigen "akademischen" Linken. Polarisierung, Vereinfachung, historisch kontrafaktisch. Schauen wir in die Arbeiter*innengeschichte. Los geht's 1/

Der Economist Artikel liest sich so, als würde die/der Author(in) ein bissl einer abgehen, beim Gedanken, dass das produktiv eingesetzt wird.

This is sometimes read as "look 'AI' isn't working". But the opposite is true.

_This_ is what "AI" is _for_. Push down labor power, push down wages, make employment more insecure.

For gamers who aren't in game dev, you should know that we are in one of the worst periods in game dev history in terms of industry stability and the reason you're not seeing that play out through products is because the average development window of games is 3-7 years so it hasn't reached you yet.

Der Unsinn von der Zustimmung zu Merz’ Aussagen wird jetzt wirklich überall verbreitet. Es ist nicht nur extrem frustrierend, dass das ZDF das nicht korrigiert, es ist schlicht auch ein Armutszeugnis für die deutsche Medienlandschaft. Unhinterfragt weitergegeben. Man möchte einfach nicht dazulernen.

Zwei druckfrische Ausgaben meines Buchs "Wut und Wertung. Warum wir über Geschmack streiten".

Vor einem Jahr erschien "Wut und Wertung. Warum wir über Geschmack streiten". Seitdem habe ich mit dem Buch viele schöne Erfahrungen gemacht. Ich denke/hoffe, das Thema ist nach wie vor aktuell.

Zum Anlass des Jubiläums verlose ich zwei signierte Exemplare.

Zum Mitmachen den Post teilen.

I’ve been in many activist spaces and conversations where people try to defend bad politics by claiming they’re common among the working class. Don’t use the working class for your support of reactionary BS. And don’t romanticize the working class as having monolithic or inherently good politics.

I still maintain there's something that really captures the imagination in the way that each image flows logically into the next but none of them add up to anything sensible. It's a waking dream, and if AI bros weren't pretending you can replace Call of Duty with it they'd see they have something

Finally: AI cannot do your job, but an AI salesman can 100% convince your boss to fire you and replace you with an AI that can't do your job, and when the bubble bursts, the money-hemorrhaging "foundation models" will be shut off and we'll lose the AI that can't do your job, and you will be long gone, retrained or retired or "discouraged" and out of the labor market, and no one will do your job.
AI is the asbestos we are shoveling into the walls of our society and our descendants will be digging it out for generations:

A lot of people are (understandably) focused on the Saudi Arabia and Kushner part of this, but the far bigger immediate impact will come from the new private EA being on the hook for $20 billion in debt. That could mean mass layoffs, more aggressive monetization, and other big cost-cutting measures

Was mich an dieser Diskussion auch maximal nervt: Diese mahnenden Einwürfe "Dumm vom ÖRR, das hilft nur der AfD". Diskutierts doch mal genau aus, was ist denn konkret passiert, wie sahen denn die Beiträge von Ruhs genau aus, kann man das etwa sogar jenseits der Afd begründen?
