Thanks for the warning…

A lot of propaganda there. US/Western ‘intelligence’ and corporate partners are guilty of warmongering, lying to their populations and war-crimes.

Standard market-competitive consequences. We are all lab-rats…

How non-selfish, generous and Zen of you ;-)

I have a hard time imagining devs from Gnu (Guix etc) not having anti-corp attitudes, but I don’t know.

The whole open-source/Foss community have seen a huge influx of windows/AI ‘normies’ that does not share the collective ‘ideals’ where free/open are needed bco corporate tyranny/control (or whatever peeps did it for then). Newcomers are welcome, but they don’t necessarily care about any of the reasons the open source community survived and prospered. Currently the community is mostly viewed as just ‘free’ and ‘open-source’ tech standards pushed by corporates. They have inadvertently ‘polluted the well’ of what FOSS/open-source was, and reduced the unwritten ideals to just meaning ‘free’. Corps use ‘open-source’ now to boost their ratings, and the general corporate attitude is to take instead of giving…

I think it is fairly normal that newcomers doesn’t share all sentiments (whatever they are), so any growing movement must diverge/specialize. Here we are dealing with corporate encroachment and ‘term-takeover’ + a blatant attempt at setting the standards of the OS world. Corps will always do that, so as OP hints at, we may need to create a term that defines non-corporate/non-fascist digital living more directly.

However, it’s not easy agreeing what a new term should include/exclude.

1. “Ukraine now makes more drones than any democracy in the world” We don’t have “Democracies” in the West, so I don’t know which democracies they refer to. We are fascist societies where the capitalist have bought the government.

2. Ukraine doesn’t have an effective production capability anymore, and EU/Nato can’t help. Their ‘drone-army’ is rag-tag sourced by kitchen producers, but they still think they are the global pure masters of the drone-space - better than Russia, Iran and China combined apparently.

Also, I wonder how Rheinmetall et al. are faring during a blackout of German energy, Chinese metal control and general German/EU recession. …or how about the entire world seeing that US/Western weaponry are over-expensive garbage that can be easily struck ? Will that complicate things ? Dream on Rheinmetall+

Sounds like a bunch of elite coping to me, and tbh, I can’t wait for the entire western capitalist/fascist religion to implode.

I think it was build on the original transformer architecture and as such took a shitload of compute and was slooow, so I guess they picked the wrong architecture and had to scrub the whole strategy. Huge loss… That also point to US not having enough cheap compute (compute->combined mem and processing) - likely from missing electricity. Lovely… Die Saltman, die, and Go go China !

I think US have bigger issues atmo…

How cool is it to see the US/‘West’ getting left behind in so many domains…

"The next generation [transmitters], they say, will be small enough to go on insects. " …or humans. Luckily our dear non-**ycho leaders would never use satellite tracking against fellow humans. They are just that nice !

…that said, ‘compute’ - maybe as tokens - can become a universal payment system in the future. The token ‘economy’ is already way bigger than all cryptoscams combined (+ hash compute -> worthless vs tokens) and it will become almost as essential as electricity. Let’s hope big tech …ychos doesn’t benefit from that development…

paywalled propaganda? Weird concept…

Ha. Succumbing to Ads, selling their AI super-weapon to the most insanely violent US Fascist regime, and now trying to use compute as payment for staff and whatnot. They are really doing great :-)

I can’t wait for the lazy/scammy shareholders to lose all their stolen value…

Russia is doing absolutely great - but not if you follow western for-profit propaganda outlets. Find some real information outlets that actually does journalism and seek a close approximation to the ‘Truth’ - try it…

Haha. Western propagandist and leaders of “surveilance-capitalism” propagandizes about “China”, you know baad baad CHINA !!!

Jebus man. Incredible that people keep regurgitating The Guardian articles or ANY western warmongering nonsense as if they were somehow ‘news’, or ‘not-propaganda’.

The West are embarrassing them-selves on ALL levels…

…oh, one more: “AI-led” ?? It’s just Capitalists doing their psychopath Capitalist thing - exploiting everytjhing and everybody. The Capitalist Ychos just have a new shiny tool to observe and control their fellow citizens - that’s all…

Another ‘bad bad enemy’ propaganda piece. Both comm systems are compromised by US oligarchs and their 3-letter ilk, and are used/promoted as attack surfaces for US propaganda and ‘color-revolutions’ in nations that don’t want to bow down to the US Oligarchy, or let their populations be flooded with Merican “Freedumb” and “Democracy” propaganda that US elite obviously doesn’t care about…

Everybody should boycott US sponsored/controlled/based platforms - and stop regurgitating Oligarch/western propaganda about their private ‘Enemies’.

‘Ads’ are pure manipulation and is not welcome on any page, or any where - at all. Site owners will have to find another way to make money, than to deliberately scam their readers on behalf of some sh*tty Corp.

Good thing! The Bastards almost never pay for anything OR create jobs where they build data-centers. They promise but just exploits…

We could hope that the other tech feudal lords also have data-centers in the general area…

So they only now figured out that all Corporations and their sick shareholders are shit evil and doesn’t care about anything else than profits ?! Wtf do they think activists are doing ?

Imagine being a Demis Hasabi, or similar cunt, voluntarily giving/developing AI technology - the most extreme power in human history - to the most evil corporation in human history, run and owned by the most evil people in the world, placed in the most evil lying empire of all times ! Wow - that is a great idea… cough…

Well, better late than never I guess. Even for normal naive, dumb slow-thinking AI researchers. Let’s hope they start waking up from their business/market psychosis, and do some open source work - real mutually beneficial work - for us all instead of boosting the psychopath Oligarchy that runs our little world.

“Navalny” was one long piece of US war-mongering propaganda, so everything these people make is infested with money paying for our opinions - manipulating the populations. F’em and this ‘Documentary’ that is a part of a much larger ‘manufacturing consent’ campaign.
