Of course there are some things that computers can calculate faster and more reliably than human minds, but that does not mean that computers are superior to our minds. We don’t even know all the things our brains are doing! They are weird and miraculous! And mostly unconscious! A grand mystery!

I'm so tired of hearing that we need to "teach our students how to use AI" when the thing they most need to use it is a critical-thinking skill set that can only be acquired by NOT using it. I'm tired of hearing that it's inevitable. I'm tired.

We are actively, *right now*, living in an AI surveillance state that profits Big Tech companies while plundering your rights and freedoms. These are not future threats, this is our present oppression. If we can't accept the reality of AI surveillance, we can't properly resist & abolish it
