Big Tech sagt den leisen Teil laut. Sie wollen, dass du dumm bist. | Der Silicon-Valley-Guru Alex Karp sagt, dass der Aufstieg der KI Frauen benachteiligen wird, die demokratisch wählen. Das ist es, was sie anstreben.

Trump said he loves the poorly educated because smart people don’t like him.
>“We see a future where intelligence is a utility like electricity or water and people buy it from us on a meter and use it for whatever they want to use it for,” Sam Altman, the founder of OpenAI, the company behind ChatGPT, told the BlackRock Infrastructure Summit in Washington, D.C. Altman was addressing the supply-demand problems around manufacturing enough chips and building the energy-guzzling data centers that power AI.
>He, too, voiced little concern about what it might mean to live in a future where knowledge isn’t earned but simply bought.
>The science-fiction fantasy has always been that robots would liberate humankind, but now that future is almost here and it seems people are only going to be liberated from their paying jobs.
Deep in the closet are we
Dude is mad at women because she got rejected at every bar he went to
It’s pretty simple. For the technocrats, AI represents the revenge of the nerds (for lack of a better term). They want to wield power and declare their superiority. For businesses, AI represents all the inconvenient workers they can fire. Never mind that both paths are ultimately self-defeating.
After natural resources, human labor and information – human intelligence as the next resource to be exploited by capitalism?
>We see a future where intelligence is a utility like electricity or water and people buy it from us on a meter and use it for whatever they want to use it for,
It’s very obvious, especially in the incredibly dumbed down responses AI gives to people.
Google AI is particularly bad. It’s responds at a 4th grade reading level and leaves out critical information needed to make informed choices. It irritates me to no end and I can’t believe so many people just take what google says at face value.
One of the real threats to the country…but having lots of money protects you from the justice.
Fuck Palantir and Alex Karp.
Lol, okay. We will see how long OpenAI lasts.
One truly cannot hate this people enough
George Carlin’s take:
„I’ll tell you what they don’t want: They don’t want a population of citizens capable of critical thinking. They don’t want well informed, well educated people capable of critical thinking. They’re not interested in that. That doesn’t help them. Thats against their interests. Thats right. They don’t want people who are smart enough to sit around a kitchen table to figure out how badly they’re getting fucked by a system that threw them overboard 30 fucking years ago. They don’t want that. You know what they want? They want obedient workers. Obedient workers. People who are just smart enough to run the machines and do the paperwork, and just dumb enough to passively accept all these increasingly shittier jobs with the lower pay, the longer hours, the reduced benefits, the end of overtime and the vanishing pension that disappears the minute you go to collect it, and now they’re coming for your Social Security money…“

Women who vote for human rights and democracy, and care about their children. That threatens them. Freaks.
I don’t think Alex Karp’s quote is what a lot of the media is portraying it as so:
„*If you are going to disrupt the economic and, therefore, political power significantly of one party’s base, highly educated, often female voters who vote mostly Democrat, and military and working class people who do not feel supported, and you feel like that’s,* ***you believe that that’s going to work out politically — you’re in an insane asylum***“
This is clearly calling out that fact that the system will become upended and that this is not going to work out cleanly – if there’s such thing as rebalancing of power, without thoughtful equitable distribution of political voices, it won’t work out. If you think that it’s going to work out, **you are in an insane asylum**.
„This technology disrupts humanities trained, largely Democratic voters, and makes their economic power less, and *increases the power, economic power, vocationally trained, working class,* ***often male voters, and, and, and so, these disruptions are going to disrupt every aspect of our society***“
That as this transition happens, it’s going to **disrupt every aspect of our society**.
Palantir is a controversial company for sure and Alex Karp may potentially have odious intents – I don’t know because I cannot look into the depth of his soul to figure out what he’s thinking. However, the quotes do not appear that he’s gleeful about the changes bring about by the progress in the AI – he’s voicing his concerns around it. People you (or I) disagree with will sometimes make good points – we shouldn’t dismiss these good points because we find them disagreeable in other aspects.
They’re going to paywall knowledge and it will be their version of the knowledge. This is Orwellian as fuck.
It is best to see Alex Karp as a threat to humanity, an *enemy of man*.
Ask yourself, what current software/hardware do you personally use that has actually IMPROVED in the past 10 years?
The entire „Big Tech“ industry is a bubble propped up by the false idea that these guys are geniuses. I say this as someone with 14 years of experience (ex-Meta)…they are not.
This modern fake „eclectic autistic savant“ thing is a grift for old, sociopathic, isolated incel-types who can easily finesse funding out of whoever due to people’s sheer lack of understanding of anything related to the industry.
The modern C-Suite of Big Tech is your stereotypical slimy, used-car salesman archetype with an even worse haircut, even worse social skills, and less life experience than your average teen in the 90s.
They will do and say whatever it takes to keep this shell of a thing running, use NDAs and the idea of proprietary information to keep insiders from speaking out, and sow as much confusion as possible to throw the masses off their scent.
It’s not just the AI bubble they are afraid of bursting…consider the layoffs across the board.
„AI is going to take over everything“ is the new „flying cars are right around the corner.“
30-40 years from now, people are going to be saying, „remember when AI was supposed to be everywhere by now?“
Joke’s on you, I was stupid to begin with. Now I’m just poor and stupid.
Society has failed when technology advances have made the future of work to be manual labor. Technology was supposed to make life better, not worse
I increasingly fear this will all end with a group of people being lined up against a wall. Which group remains to be determined.
Red meat for maga crowd to convince then to support AI, which is going to be very disruptive to the workplace…time to firm up your hardware trouble shooting skills. AI is still linear and can’t deal multiple failure modes.
These dipshits trained their LLMs on digital copies of books, but can’t seem to grasp that hard copies of books exist and can be read without using the Internet. They’re not going to restrict anything.
Of course, this was coming from an even bigger dipshit who doesn’t realize there’s a distinction between intelligence and knowledge, or that intelligence can’t be restricted, so it’s not surprising that he believes he can restrict access to knowledge.
They all have their heads up their asses. All of these „techbros“. They’re going to fail because they’re disconnected from reality and too dense to figure out how to reconnect.
Strange that they’re entire industry is inside the liberal work force, but that’s who they’re targeting. They want an army of people with few thoughts but many opinions.
I wonder if he wants people dumb so they’ll stop remarking his appearance is worse than an unhoused person who’s rolled around in pig excrement
Alex Karp is a dangerous, idiotic maniac.
The problem with listening to rich people is that all too often they are in love with their own voice. Musk, Karp, Bessent, Lutnick, Trumps, they are all idiots. How often do you hear from the Walton’s, the family that owns SC Johnson, the Butt family of Texas and thousands of others.
I have come to the conclusion the smart people stay quiet while the insecure morons prattle on.
Ai is a disease on democracy. Undermining objective truth and accelerating propaganda and tyranny. Any human being with a minimum of forward thinking would stay well away from it. But people are flocking to it like mindless sheep so I guess we’ll once again get the reality we deserve.
It’s a layer worse than that.
Sure, they hate women. And also, they want to split off working class men from joining up with women, so all of the peasants are divided against each other.
Everything these billionaires want is less for everyone else. Less wealth. Less education. Less freedom. Less rights. Less life. I believe they see other less successful people as parasites that exist to hold them back from living their craziest fantasies. They want AI and robots over humans so they can achieve total control.
Jokes on you…my kids read books and hate smart phones!
Everything out of this man’s mouth is an absolute lie, he will do anything for a penny, including destroying himself and everyone around him. The day will come when these „moguls and alleged visionaries“ will fall to nothing and be shown for the fools they truly are.
These people are not only insane, they are morons. Sure, there will be people who adapt. I use AI in my daily life, but mostly for the dumbest shit imaginable. And I’m going to be very honest here.
I use it as:
– glorified internet browsing or asking questions for instant answers
– writing sexual-ish fan fiction
– a personal astrologer (but it is TERRIBLE at this because it can’t correctly read star charts … I always have to correct it)
– asking it for recommendations on what I can do for various things, related to personal issues
– vent about annoying situations and whatnot
– a therapy-adjacent consultant because I was diagnosed late in life with autism
I mean, some people probably use it for work and whatnot, but I find that it actually makes most of my work much worse. Its writing is pretty abysmal. I just use it to fart around and waste time, like most other purposes I use the internet for … it’s also really taking a lot of its answers from all of us on Reddit. Which again kind of cracks me up, lol.
These are the idiots who call hamburgers products telling us that eventually AI will just usurp our lives.
It’s not going to happen. And the places it does happen, those places will suffer for it. Look at how it’s gone for Buzzfeed implementing AI. Look how it’s gone for Amazon, IBM … most companies are losing money from it.
Ole boy is a weak bitch that’ll crumple at the first sign of hostility to come his way.
Do any of these fucking morons stop to think about what it will mean for the species if we have an immensely complicated artificial intelligence performing all the tasks that were once done by human experts, and mass de-skilling of said human experts actually capable of understanding, fixing, and maintaining it/the infrastructure it requires? Are they so stupid and/or arrogant that they think the upper class will remain just as educated in this dystopia they’re proposing? Because this sounds like they’re knowingly pitching the movie Idiocracy as a model for civilization.
