AI HR hiring AI candidates to do AI jobs selling AI products which are advertised on AI channels producing AI content for AI views to make AI stats go up. They won't even notice when the humans die out. That's the dead world aliens are one day going to find.

Folks, you can't report the United States to its manager. There's no superhero coming to save us.
We don't need one giant act of heroism. We need millions of small acts of solidarity. Help one person in your community for nothing in return. Then, do it again. And again.
That's the revolution.

If I have to explain to you why it's a bad idea to use a machine that makes shit up 15-80% of the time AND destroys the environment AND contributes to rising fascism and genocide AND puts brilliant skillful creatives out of work by stealing their work, then we're already speaking different languages

Looking at all this. The election. The pre-election. The opioids. Whatever. Almost any problem
