      To me it’s kind of like the people who are against invasive plants and animals with an emotional ferocity way more than supporting healthy ecosystems would seem to deserve. As if they are driven to eradicate and exterminate something and it just happens to be wildlife rather than people this time. I get the same vibe from the “clanker” people.

      What’s even weirder to me is that they’re humanizing the AI by trying to dehumanize it… If that makes sense.

      Fuck AI, and fuck all the capitalists who bastardized what initially looked like a cool technology :(
