i came in here to find out the same thing.

even deserts host life. it’s kind of a ecological misnomer that we could just cover the deserts of the world in solar panels. that would have serious repercussions.

get off lemmy and don’t come back

all you gotta do is just support a radical by-any-means-necessary approach and be vocal about it until it reaches critical mass.

then we need to keep encouraging chaotic good as an option until we are all ready to do something.

do something or accept your dystopia

lol. you’ll just legislate the revolution, amirite?

don’t take to the streets. take to the dark web. be smart. don’t be a mob. know which targets bring the most results. clandestine and precise. once upon a time, we had very smart people at the helm of the internet. i fear those people don’t exist any more.

The truth is the winners have already won

this. it’s all a big game and there are only winners and losers. good and evil are just ideas. if you believe in something, you go for the throat to make it reality. otherwise, you’re just a loser on the internet bitching about it. more of you need to wake up to this fact.

the american people are just as spineless. anybody could open up a few seats. all it takes is a little patience and planning. those of you waiting on a corrupt system to fix itself are the biggest dipshits on the planet.

is metafilter ok with advocating violence? asking for a friend?

it’s just rich people’s money that could be used to fund housing for the masses. let me know where that beach is so i can go drop off some karma.

these people live in a delusion, chasing star trek fantasies while the general population can barely afford rent. we are truly due for the chickens to come home to roost.

i just hope a lot of innocent animals don’t get hurt in the process.

your points are completely valid, which is why we really need to start banding together to dismantle the ownership class

by

any

means

necessary

for the sake of humanity (and all other living things on the planet)

"Cutting-edge technology doesn’t have to harm the planet, and research like this is very important in helping us get concrete numbers about emissions. It will also help people understand that the cloud we think that AI models live on is actually very tangible, says Sasha Luccioni, an AI researcher at Hugging Face who led the work.

Once we have those numbers, we can start thinking about when using powerful models is actually necessary and when smaller, more nimble models might be more appropriate, she says."

that’s a shame and i’m not surprised at all to see that corporations are using AI for completely unimportant things.

But one thing to consider is that AI could also lead to solutions that help save the planet, like solving problems with fusion technology. I still believe in science, and I still believe that capitalism is the root of the problem, not the technology itself.

AI is accelerating our CO2 output

Could you explain that a little bit more please?

our collective time would be better spent destroying capitalism than trying to stop AI. AI is wonderful in the right social system.

elias griffin ain’t fucking around. neither am i. weakling pacifists will be crushed under the heel of the coming dystopia.

god, i love this statement. it’s so true. people have to understand our collective power. even if the only tool we have is a hammer, we can still beat their doors down and crush them with it. all it takes is organization and willingness.
