A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Something needs to happen to these people. I won't say what, but something.

A while ago, I was arguing with someone (if I'm not mistaken) about how AI is incompatible with politics, law and democracy due to the nature of the whole process involved in writing laws. Now I notice that this is exactly the point. AI's purpose has never been democracy. Democracy, as Peter Thiel and his followers argued, is an obstacle in the front of tech's development, in the front of profit, of capital. As such, the logic solution is to get rid of it - and that's exactly what Trump is doing.

AH! NOW I GET IT!

This is the bet the tech bros were working towards.

AI will not be profitable unless it is propped up by government contracts...

Tax Payer Money will be funneled in from the Gov to failed technology that will be forced on the federal workers to work around.
