I like the direction this is taking, and I think the more radical and more coherent endgame is data ownership returning to us and AI's replacing website brands all together as the AI generates any UI we could ever want. Today most webs

Ah yes I hear that - I am hearing you share that it has felt society neglected and even discriminated actively against you. I am so sorry and can feel your pain. One push back I have for you is to inquire about what "society" real

For me the problem is simple: we are in an active prisoner's dilemma with AI adoption where the outcome is worse collectively by not asking the right questions for optimal human results, we are defecting and using ai selfishly because

I think unpopularly there's some fake comments in the discourse led by financial incentives, and also a mix of some fear-based "wanting to feel like things are OK" or dissonance-avoiding belief around this thats leading to th

I'll probably be downvoted, I feel like the whole AI adoption and much of our technological progress over the centuries has been a prime Prisoner's Dilemma example. We would get better results by collaborating, and because defecti

I don't understand why they created or obtained control of the world Factbook in the first place, anyone have a story around this? I thought the CIA was formed to represent rich people's interests and maybe in that way the Factboo

Then don't watch "Everything is a Rich Man's Trick" that was what showed me a bit of the under dealings of how that organization was structured and created. Spoiler: The CIA was formed around rich people's interests

Unaccountable elite want to remain unaccountable. Public is bad, must make them more accountable and more surveilled. Do not watch the public servants, do not notice that they act more like "private" servants.

That's great, yes. We all draw the line somewhere, subjectively. We all pretend we follow logic and reason and lets all be more honest and truthfully share how we as humans are emotionally driven not logically driven. It's like th

Hi would you share what kind of token cost you are churning through for this? I assume you are not using a subsidized dedicated Claude Code or open ai subscription to handle the token cost (through max subscription or open ai equivalent) to

Yeah I can see that. Though the separation between "govenrment" and "corporation" is pretty thin already. So nationalization or corporitization, whatever you want to call it, its just a label for rich and powerful people

I wonder when I experience noticeably degraded model quality, ie opus, is it because my usage falls in the highest buckets and I’m being shadow limited or served worse versions of opus or is it because of actual server load/burden? It

Who funds those tech firms? It's not Trump. His power is mostly theater to his constituents and those who funded Trump: spoiler: he's not entirely self funded, and some of his funding is at least from others so he's conflicte

Sorry if I was the one to bring hostility into this or project. On the other hand, I also feel like what I wanted to talk about and brought up was dismissed and responded to with strong labels which are hostile in nature and shut down open

You haven't taken responsibility for your hostile, ad hominem style and straw man responses though. Why would I share anything with someone who engages me with that close-mindedness and uses and brings in words like "flat-earthers

Absolutely not. Looks like your memory is playing tricks on you again. | Authority Bias: The cognitive tendency to overvalue the opinion of an authority figure or expert lets not make up definitions for your own convenience.

It's definitely not because it's a conspiracy. Like, we use that word to shut down any criticism and thought that is unliked and against the social norms/times. It's not a conspiracy that this monitoring and surveillance

I think you're taking things a bit too personally here and being defensive, and a bit hostile. We can stay decent and dignified on hacker news, right?

Right. By the way I think that last sentence of yours is a strong ad hominem argument and false equivalency also. Oh by the way, I have a funny personal experience with the theory that it was meant to avoid supply runs on quality masks. Ear
