A room of lefties, started by a lefty, policing a room of lefties.

 

Point of correction, its founder and first employee, 'started by' complained that wikkipedia had a left wing bias in its early days. So I am assuming not a leftie then. It is more balanced now.

No that's not a point of correction because that's just the lie you want to believe and delude yourself thinking it's sooo neutral.

 

Most social media esk companies including facef**k, twatter of old, BBC, ITV and Wikipedia, all attracted a lefty majority who have lefty groupthink and stamp out anything that goes against it.

 

Like your civil service department, if you find someone in the centre or right they're the token employee wheeled out to try to show look we aren't all lefty lanyard wearing types.

On that last point. The future does indeed look bleak. This was on yesterday, a bit towards the end grabbed my attention. AI has recently entered a race between Chinese Open Source and Western, (largely US based) Closed Source versions. Whoever the analyst was, he predicted that the former would win, but neither was a positive outlook. Paraphrasing but it was something like: The China model reinforces the right of the state to be repressive and authoritarian, whilst the US model allows society to continue to be dominated by corporations in a race to the bottom, (and you can say what you like on generative AI, but the real world outside your screen is getting worse). BLEAK! 

 

From about 25 minutes in;-

 

The Artificial Human - Is China getting AI right? - BBC Sounds

WWW.BBC

---

Aleks and Kevin ask whose AI development ideology will win: China or the US?

 

 

 

 

 

That was an interesting podcast - thanks for the link. I am fortunate to have tonnes of time at work to listen to interesting stuff.

 

Either way, the Skynet (from the Terminator films) scenario seems closer than ever, but there isn't anything I can do. I'm just glad that with the advent of AI that I don't have a white collar job.

Codswallop, we are drowning in a sea of your lefty let's write 5 pages of drivel and demanding we change our majority opinion that doesn't align with your let's throw a few ..ists words.

 

If you're soo integrated into Swedish culture wtf are you so obsessed by TDS?.

 

Again, you've not provided any sort of useful contribution to the discussion. Just generalisations and assumptions, but at least you mostly refrained from being offensive.

Pointless J, like the accusations of racism, homophobia, Islamophobia etc etc by SP and others against myself 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️doesn’t matter what you say in reply it’s not enough, accusing anyone is the easiest attack method. You know you despise Trump to the point you are incapable of rational thinking, so in reality you are never gonna be swayed by anything anyone writes here. Unfortunately for you J and plenty of others the American people voted him in. 
I think one of the misconceptions in Europe  is that the average American gives a shit about much outside of the USA, my recent holiday in NY would suggest the exact opposite, it’s America first for most I came across. 

 

Yes I despise Trump. You can objectively loath someone without objectively loathing everything they do. The issue is that almost everything he has done has been loathsome. He truly is a man without a single redeeming quality and that's reflected in his rhetoric, his policy and his actions. 

 

I am well aware of how insular the US is. I've only been there three times, but having visited Texas, Florida and NYC, at least they were three quite different places. Even in a city as global as NYC, it's still inward looking.

Dave, please can you drop this. 

I honestly don't care what people do for a living and if he chooses not to share that detail about his life, so be it. Continually raising it in every interaction with him on the forum doesn't serve any purpose and undermines the points you are trying to make. 

 

Just move on and try to respectfully address any points of disagreement. 

 

To coin the phrase from The Rest is Politics, it's excellent to be able to disagree agreeably. If ever anyone resorts to insults, it's obvious that they've lost the argument.

I very much doubt that is the case here J. Anyway as I said he’s democratically so that’s that for a few years yet. 

[GarethM]

And equally anyone that has to write a bloody dissertation for every reply doesn't understand the subject or have the ability to explain something.

 

Both you and SP seem to believe you have some moral authority on a subject because you've wasted hours and weeks listening to claptrap and are effectively radicalised.

No came out of the horses mouth, the founder of Wikkipedia was complaining in the early days that it was too left bias. No lies, no half truths, just a straight up that is what he said.

 

 

Which might then flip about to how you perceive the world to be, and want it to be.

And if you believe that you'll also believe the Facebook Muppet when he said we didn't delete/report and take down things.

 

Then a few years later had to openly admitted they did that and much worse!.

 

We both know delusion is strong with you, but lying to yourself is possibly the worst thing!.
