It’s telling so many in tech think the only reason for being against something like cryptocoins or “AI” is that it overhyped and won’t fulfil its promise, leading to companies failing…

When the strongest reason to be against them is that promise itself is genuinely horrifying and destructive

@baldur there's a specific promise? it seems just going in all directions and no directions at all

@calotriton One consistent part of the tech-optimist message for “AI” is that it will automate most parts of our lives and most jobs we do, seemingly without realising what sort of society that would create.

@baldur why not both. I am equality afraid of both possibilities as they will lead to more layoffs

@mms Oh, absolutely. I’m just having my mind boggle a bit from reading blog posts that seem incapable of seeing the likely consequences of the technological future they’re describing. 🙂
