Good post by David Golumbia on ChatGPT and how miserable it all is :rat-salute-2:
your proposed solution
I never proposed a solution, aside from a post-revolutionary hypothetical in another branch of this comment tree. I took issue with what I percieved to be the assertion that Marxists shouldn’t analyse and complain about things.
It’s quite clear from the article and your Luddite perspective that you wish to ban, destroy, or otherwise hinder the development of automation
Automation is great, I love automation. But the point of the article is that this AI tech is not automating writing, what it is doing is automating a facsimile of writing, and that to accept the output of these algorithms as equally valid works of art as those made by actual people is a damaging and nihilistic worldview.
If the end consumer cannot tell the difference and interprets the AI-produced facsimile as the real thing, there is no effective difference
