yeah thats pretty good


My experience working in government with algorithms (we never called them AI, just "the system" or "the computer," but it was the same as any AI) was that it was just a faster way of denying people benefits on spurious grounds

And of course since the rest of the system (benefits distributed, legal oversight, hours worked by processing staff, etc) all had to renormalize around the new speed of processing, so the impact of it was to make new rules that made it harder for workers to explain things to applicants and more (and more indepth) forms for applicants to fill out.

Basically we used it as a tool for turning carbon emissions into "hassle."

The specter of AI is heightening contradictions, not producing new ones. In many ways it seems to be a distraction, with people blaming the new technology for preexisting issues.

I think one can substantively disagree here. the issue is that “AI” is at or near the point where we can essentially commodify mental labor. while the changes it brings won’t be analogous to 1:1 with say, a mechanical loom and M->C->M’ of textiles, one of the biggest differences between now and then is that AI is building on a substrate of existing capitalist material relations. how much it will alter those existing conditions might not be so radical, but I think having human beings alienated not only from their labor, but from their very ideas, is going to be a very significant and very bad change

Given the use of the word "swap" in this context it seems more like a faster version of what you've been able to with Photoshop for ages where you just take a bunch of pictures then pick and choose the best faces since no one got it right in one picture. The only "AI" would be face detection and making the background consistent.

Like even from the kinda out-of-context time cropping it's clear that it's working off of a series of photos.

the only swap I know is SWAP.AVI

Hot dude with a cool attitude.
I volunteer a lot so sometimes I meet people who have lost jobs and I met this guy who lost his job at google and he used to work for the google glass division and then he started working in their AI division. After he got fired his girlfriend dumped him. One time when we were volunteering he told me that deer kept eating all the plants in his garden and I told him to get a goose because it would scare away all the deer. He got a goose egg and he got it to imprint on him and now the goose literally just follows him around his yard and it attacks his neighbors and the other day he told me that the goose scared away a date by flying into her and biting her face. I ruined this nerd's life with a goose. Computers should be illegal. Thanks for listening.

Even though I lowkey dislike the tech industry and think that tech workers have ruined my hometown by making everything too expensive I can see his humanity and will never tell him how I feel. He seems super sad on most days and has told me multiple times that even though he's been successful financially he's never really accomplished anything at work - that google got rid of every project he ever worked on - that his girlfriend only liked him because he had money. It seems like it's the only living thing that actually loves him even though it attacks the deliveryman and it leaves huge corklike turds all over his car's windshield that he has to pick out with his hands because he says they smear when he uses the wipers.
