I wont argue philosophy, but I will tell you the future,
The Luddites lose.
The faster you/we reconcile yourself to new technology, the more likely policy and institutions can be developed to mitigate the harm.
LLM's and Dynamic automation are profitable. No amount of indignation will stop this.

one of the great tragedies of our age is how many people are willing to view AI as magic because they don't understand how it functions but unwilling to exhibit any humility at all towards more important things they understand even less (like the climate or medicine)
the program is tokenizing inputs into vectors, then doing matrix multiplication to probabilistically compute which token should follow those tokens.
as usual, you are mystified by systems beyond your understanding and come to a bad conclusion (coincidentally the one you know will get you yelled at)

Feeling extremely validated. It’s made iOS a chore to use.
One of the biggest undiscussed/underdiscussed stories of the year is how bad Apple Intelligence is. It's the first time I can remember Apple forcing such a questionable and poorly-designed product on users
As I said -- only a matter of time before news orgs lashed out at Apple's lackluster (and evidently dangerously wrong) AI summaries of their work. This is shambolic and the BBC has every right to be furious about it.
