AI belongs to the Capitalists now.
Was there ever any doubt this would be the outcome? It's like that dream of Open Source from the early days of the internet. Like Free information and knowledge available to all at the click of a mouse button. This fucking article is behind a goddamn paywall! Like Bitcoin, Blockchain and Crypto would free money from control by the Central Banks and International Banking Cartel. If there's a way to privatize, centralize, control & monopolize anything so that those in power can profit from it and keep those without power enthralled in slavery, they will do so. AI is just the latest in a long list of technologies that Capitalists have brought under their control. Communications? Go back to Western Union, the Telegraph and Bell Telephone.
So whatever great things you think AI is capable of, no matter how much GPT-4 helps you do your coding tasks, it's just not worth it. You have to break the machines. In the end they just enslave you further.
