While I do agree most presidents were in it for the power and money, Trump is particular in that he really seems to enjoy cruelty much more than any US president we have ever seen. Yes the previous ones did surely allow and tolerate cruelty for power, I think Trump would simply want cruelty even if it did not materially benefit him. Because with other people, money and position makes them feel powerful. With Trump, money, position and cruelty makes him feel powerful.

wow each day we wake up to a new low from Trump. His enjoyment of cruelty really knows no bounds and it really resonates with his supporters too.

can you imagine trans people getting healthcare? atrocious. and the poor? how will their billionaire daddies feel special if everyone gets the same healthcare

in what sense?

There already better alternatives like clamav but I guess that assumes the IT department is actually Linux proficient.

That is why I think they are scrambling to pass all these regulations. They might even try to push things towards hardware gated LLMs but that would be impossible to enforce globally.

Your question is unrelated to the statement I made. Does the "Markov machine" care if I own the means or not? Of all the tech advancements made to serve the billionaires, AI is perhaps the only one non billionaires were able to use in retribution, hence why they are scrambling to pass all these regulations regarding it and creating dooms day scenerios (apart from the PR aspect)

Also it is not a Markov machine really (seems like you are using random technical words to look clever), if you have seen Markov chain text generators you will quickly spot the difference.

still beats Twilight

yes but it can be used by both sides to this end even though most people see it like a pathway to next stage of capitalism, it can also be the quite opposite

AI is gonna destroy capitalism and non-capitalism alike. It is agnostic to political alignment.

I was sure it wasn't going to end

I mean two years ago it wasn't even that hard to side with anti-AI since even the simple code it produced was generally buggy, let alone making software with it. They just waited until it was more reliable and farmed some PR while waiting. That is the basic summary of every large company, minimize the path to profit.
