"Once AI improves productivity we'll finally achieve the post-scarcity utopia where everyone has their needs met because so much stuff gets produced for so little effort!"

"Actually we can do that now"

"No"

AI is the clearest example of the way white supremacist capitalism extracts the talent, labor, and life out of millions of people for the enrichment and psychological enrapturement of a few. There is a pleasure there in saying you've beaten those with a talent you never had and never worked to earn.

"If you’re pushing slop or eating it, you wouldn’t read it anyway. You’d ask a bot for a summary and forget what it told you, then proceed with your day, unchanged by words you did not read and ideas you did not consider."

World leaders must stop appeasing Donald Trump Conceding to Trump’s demands only guarantees new threats. It’s time to reject the US and its tech companies.

Western leaders have appeased Donald Trump since he returned to power, only to be hit with new demands after every concession.

On Tuesday, Trump declared economic war on countries that regulate its tech companies. It’s time for the world to break from the US and aggressively target Silicon Valley.

So, an AI booster is not, in many cases, an actual fan of artificial intelligence. People like Simon Willison or Max Woolf who actually work with LLMs on a daily basis don’t see the need to repeatedly harass everybody, or talk down to them about their unwillingness to pledge allegiance to the graveyard smash of generative AI. In fact, the closer I’ve found somebody to actually building things with LLMs, the less likely they are to emphatically argue that I’m missing out by not doing so myself. No, the AI booster is symbolically aligned with generative AI. They are fans in the same way that somebody is a fan of a sports team, their houses emblazoned with every possible piece of tat they can find, their Sundays living and dying by the success of the team, except even fans of the Dallas Cowboys have a tighter grasp on reality. Kevin Roose and Casey Newton are two of the most notable boosters, and — as I’ll get into later in this piece — neither of them have a consistent or comprehensive knowledge of AI. Nevertheless, they will insist that “everybody is using AI for everything” — a statement that even a booster should realize is incorrect based on the actual abilities of the models. But that’s because it isn’t about what’s actually happening, it’s about allegiance. AI symbolizes something to the AI booster — a way that they’re better than other people, that makes them superior because they (unlike “cynics” and “skeptics”) are able to see the incredible potential in the future of AI, but also how great it is today, though they never seem to be able to explain why outside of “it replaced search for me!” and “I use it to draw connections between articles I write,” which is something I do without AI using my fucking brain. Boosterism is a kind of religion, interested in finding symbolic “proof” that things are getting “better” in some indeterminate way, and that anyone that chooses to believe otherwise is ignorant.

The greatest irony of the AI booster is they're oftentimes not actually fans of AI. Boosterism is a kind of religion, where technology is a means of proving intellectual and philosophical superiority by telling half-truths about software sold by billionaires.

In 25 years, every business school in the country will be doing case studies about how a long defunct company known as “Google” once had an unbeatable lock on online information retrieval and then started doing shit like this.

none of the tech oligarchs is doing it so secretly since the dystopian/doom it's part of their marketing strategy. the tide might now be changing since LLMs flop being acknowledged by Scam Altmans et al
