Climate or progress, false dilemma fallacy

Not a difficult choice by any means

At least it’s a simple choice.

Probably best to post a removepaywalls.com/ link. I wouldn’t want to support the bastards at Axel Springer.

AI craze in “Europe” (not all Europe) is another example of some people blindly following USA for no real reasons. There is political fight right now and we have to decide whether we will forge our own better destiny or fall prey to American ruling class of tech bros, billionaires and conservatives who are their executive branch.

Good timing when most of the Europe is literally burning in heat. Data centers, of course 🙃

What I find interesting is that a lot of these changes which are attributed to the purportedly “inevitable” changes associated with AI, are real consequences of climate change.

• loss of employment? Check.
• profound change to living conditions? Check.
• threathening the continuity of human civilization? Check.
• threathening the capability to compete on national scales if the change is not reponded to swiftly by governments? Check.
• Correlated with obscene amounts of wealth concentration, impoverishing the huge majority of people, and disintegrating societies? Check.

It’s as if AI is used as a distraction. Like the “accusation in a mirror pattern”.

@HaraldvonBlauzahn yeah, #techfacism. #aisects. How can this be a choice?! Fucking greedy billionaires!
