One good thing about AI is exposing the level of taste these people have.

We really let the stupidest people have all the money and make the big decisions.
Can we stop with tech crunch .. I'm not disabling my adblocker.
For those of you who don't know. Theres a billionaire cult called TESCREAL which wants to "create a worthy successor to humanity".
BwHahHahHAha.
How in the fuck is this advert real 🤣
It’s like onion or adult swim sketch. 🤣
The complete disconnection and inability for any of these Silicon Valley fuck boys and girls to read the room is absolutely mind blowing.
Jesus Christ. For a company that lives on stolen private communication, and pretends they know how to interpret it to sell it….
This clearly disproves it. 😂
Absolute fucking bellends.
the David Bowie song “Five Years.”
For those who don't know the song, the song narrates what a person who has just heard from the news from a sobbing news anchor, that the world has 5 years to live and there is nothing anyone can do, and how this knowledge breaks some people and how it haunts and makes people think of what they can do for the next 5 years moments after hearing the news.
That is the song they chose to back a Pro AI Optimism Ad.
Or the marketing people have research that says the tune matters more than the actual content of the song.
Hell, they've been using "Born in the USA" as a song about Patriotism for decades. For people to make the connection they'd have to think about it critically, which is already more advanced than most advertising is meant to be experienced.
Or, they know they are pandering to the Lowest Common Denominator of human intelligence/awareness and that the minority that understands that song already know enough not to fall for it anyway.
Idk this ad is just "You think AI is bad? Well look at all this stock footage of a happy family!"
I’m so sick of Meta. Wish they’d flush themselves already.
Yeah seriously, there’s not a single reason for them to exist. “Our goal is to harvest users’ personal data and sell it for profit!”
Zero benefit to humanity, just soul-sucking abhorrent people doing disgusting shit.
Pushing through the market square
So many mothers sighing
News had just come over
We had five years left to cry in (cry in)
.
News guy wept and told us
Earth was really dying (dying)
Cried so much his face was wet
Then I knew he was not lying (lying)
.
I heard telephones, opera house, favourite melodies
I saw boys, toys, electric irons and TVs
My brain hurt like a warehouse, it had no room to spare
I had to cram so many things to store everything in there
.
And all the fat, skinny people
And all the tall, short people
And all the nobody people
And all the somebody people
I never thought I'd need so many people
.
A girl my age went off her head
Hit some tiny children
If the black hadn't have pulled her off
I think she would have killed them
.
A soldier with a broken arm
Fixed his stare to the wheels of a Cadillac
A cop knelt and kissed the feet of a priest
And a queer threw up at the sight of that
.
I think I saw you in an ice-cream parlour
Drinking milkshakes cold and long
Smiling and waving and looking so fine
Don't think you knew you were in this song
.
And it was cold and it rained, so I felt like an actor
And I thought of Ma and I wanted to get back there
Your face, your race, the way that you talk I kiss you, you're beautiful, I want you to walk
.
We've got five years, stuck on my eyes
Five years, what a surprise
We've got five years, my brain hurts a lot
Five years, that's all we've got

Another article in which we find that the people who are making things in this country are building the things that science fiction authors wrote about to stop people from doing such things. Yup, they saw the horrors and they just smiled and thought "Cool!"
Colossus the Forbin Project, I Robot (the literature and the movie), Running Man ,The Matrix, Fahrenheit 451, 1984, Rollerball, And of course Minority Report.
These are all good works of fiction, either literature or movies, that apparently our business elite has decided is what we need to make Real.

Four different communities you posted this to. I'm blocking the spammy git.


You don't need to post this to so many different communities, four is ridiculous.
