That's not what I'm saying, I'm saying many technologies enable a slide into fascism, and not having AI until a couple years ago didn't seem to solve the problem.
- jrflowers 1y agoI like this reasoning. If a thing doesn’t exist, and doesn’t cause a problem, then when it does exist it won’t cause a problem. Like for example people died in wars before the invention of the machine gun, therefore machine guns didn’t really kill a significant number of people.
- wilg 1y agoWhile I'm glad you had fun crafting an annoying reply, that's not analogous to what I said.
- jrflowers 1y agoYour point was either that the fake video of a guy doing a backflip is the same thing as the invention of the radio or that if something bad is happening, nothing that happens can make it worse. Or somehow video generation software would have solved fascism in advance by previously not existing, which is proof that it is now good. The first two are very smart but if you were talking plainly about the outcomes of time travel paradoxes I apologize for missing that
- wilg 1y agoIncredibly, my point was none of those, as you well know!
