So,
European and American troops are busy containing the mess the latter created in Iran;
Thus weakening Europe’s eastern front;
And thus straining NATO unity.
Meanwhile, Russia can now sell oil again.

That video of Sama comparing food, healthcare and education to LLMs energy demands is simultaneously very disturbing, enraging and deeply concerning. This worldview has a lot of weight amongst the ruling class and that alone makes me immensely worried.

I'm not "anti-AI". I'm anti:

* Shipping code at LGTM-speed
* Replacing user research & feedback with hallucinations
* Abdicating thinking
* BDUF in .md files
* Burning the planet for - in most cases - lower productivity & worse reliability
* Stealing IP on an industrial scale
* Technofeudalism
