Authoritarian left... What is this?

It's an oxymoron. Authoritarianism is right-wing regardless of how the "authority" brands itself.

It's almost impossible for politicians to confront their masters profiting from the housing crisis (eg. landlords, capital). But it's extremely easy and self-satisfying for them to demonize and violently attack their victims.

Computer programs don't deceive. They respond programmatically based on input given.

Any perceived deception by the computer is actually just irrational expectations, etc. by the user.

it will start by telling you it’s “thinking.” After a few seconds, it’ll specify that it’s “defining variables.” Wait a few more seconds, and it says it’s at the stage of “figuring out equations.” You eventually get your answer, and you have some sense of what the AI has been up to.

The opposite is true here. We are being intentionally misdirected by misleading/humanizing language away from what the computer is actually doing. Not even close to understanding what the "AI" has been computing.

However, it’s a pretty hazy sense. The details of what the AI is doing remain under the hood. That’s because the OpenAI researchers decided to hide the details from users... In other words, we’re not sure if Strawberry is actually “figuring out equations” when it says it’s “figuring out equations.” Similarly, it could tell us it’s consulting biology textbooks when it’s in fact consulting comic books. Whether because of a technical mistake or because the AI is attempting to deceive us in order to achieve its long-term goal, the sense that we can see into the AI might be an illusion.

The author conflates the actual deception of the developers with the imaginary deception of the "AI". This type of terrible coverage is completely normal inside the "AI" bubble.

Politicians gonna attack Shein until USA is #1 polluter... And all these companies will still be exploiting the same slave labor at the same sweatshops destroying the planet.

This tells you much much more about how graduate students are treated in academia than anything about "AI".

does some reasoning steps.

The people who believe in "AI" say the wackiest things.

I'm "lucky" enough to live in a state where my vote doesn't matter at all. I'm completely free to not vote for genocide. What an awesome "democracy".

It applies to a house built by slavers trying to keep everybody else out working in the fields.

What primary? What candidate? I can't even find somebody who doesn't support genocide much less rank choice.

This doesn't work for the left because cults are a right-wing phenomenon. Lying and brainwashing people is inherently authoritarian.

Gotta remember that AI is going to solve the climate crisis! \s
