@mcc I gave a talk ten years ago where the main point was "the AI apocalypse came and went years ago, corporations are AI that runs on humans and we just carry out their algorithms for them"
@darius @mcc Do you have a favorite article on the subject? I think I usually end up sharing https://www.antipope.org/charlie/blog-static/2010/12/invaders-from-mars.html but I'm wondering if anyone has posted anything more in depth.
@johnnesky no but these interesting citations came up elsewhere in the thread:
