Important point from @superrr's @eliza: When we focus on technology and centre the discussion around it, rather than on people, we fall into the #BigTech trap. #PrivacyCamp25 #TechWontSaveUs

♻️ parismarx: Is it possible to imagine a better future where we use less computation? The effects of AI hype almost demand it.

On #TechWontSaveUs, I spoke with @danmcquillan so he could lay out the concept of decomputing as a different way of assessing technology.

I am so tired of tech hype. Every year it is the same thing, “this new tech will save us.” Whether it is Carbon Capture (won’t work, can’t work), AI, Blockchain, VR, or IoT. It’s all just tech hype designed to drive up consumption. #TechWontSaveUs

Left box: new headline: Spotify's Plans For Al Generated Music, Podcasts, and Recommendations, According To Its Co-President, CTO, and CPO
Gustav Söderström
Right box copy: In George Orwell's 1984, there is a machine called a "versificator" that composes music and lyrics without human intervention. This device is part of the oppressive regime's efforts to produce art that lacks genuine creativity or emotional depth, serving to distract and pacify the populace rather than provoke thought or engagement. The songs created by this machine are described as bland and formulaic, designed solely for the enjoyment of the proles, thereby illustrating a society where art is commodified and controlled by the state.
