Grimes and Elon Musk are actually a really good couple because they both seem fucking insufferable
what did she do this time
She is mending the divide between technocrats and communists with AI
The crust punk who makes decent synthesizer music to weird transhumanist fash pipeline is real
The great part of what she’s saying is that it’s the same technological salvation thing the bourgeoisie are already selling, she’s just rephrasing it as something communists should also want. This is fascinating to me since she’s together with Elon Musk, who is the current mascot of tech salvation.
“You don’t need to be a communist because we’ll have an implausibly advanced magic tech thing that creates utopia and the current situation bends in that direction also the father of my child is one of the richest people on earth and makes money by promising and not delivering magic tech things”
Hmm, the Griffith in the background with this speech seems kind of sus, ngl. The whole AI argument falls apart when you have to consider that it relies on the capitalists not just implementing it in order to hoard more wealth. Sure, automation is cool and good, but the system still remains.
Just gotta let the capitalists acquire more wealth in order to make more automation, it is gonna drip down eventually.
What did she do now? 😰
