@vmstan i think I may have bought a pair of new old stock sneakers once

btw I have not ever bought clothing on eBay and I’ve been using the site for going on 25 years

@crumbletiltskin you really think electric bikes will not go up in price from scarcity of source materials and lack of ICs lol

There’ll be one more generation of game consoles and they’ll all be $4,000 because of prices of GPUs memory and storage

And that will be it

[hoping to enrage the gamers to rebel against AI]

Please note that I don't care if he personally uses LLMs and for what purpose.

My gripe is with the structure of the article, instead of admitting that these things have problems and explaining why he still chooses to use them he just directly attacks people who have nothing to do with him like some sort of third-rate right-wing podcast host is ranting about "illegals".

The whole vibe is off.

@maddiefuzz @lmorchard FWIW they're already working on trying to make 3D printers illegal (because you could maybe print parts of guns with them).

RE: https://hachyderm.io/@thomasfuchs/116110761175260521

I still can't believe that he published that.

Cory Doctorow sounds like he has been chatting to his chatbot therapist and they decided together it's a good idea to publish an article that attacks people for having valid criticisms about LLMs and the AI industry.

How dare he. This is such poor judgment.

@fuzzygroup the problem with nuclear power—like the problem with anything else—is people

seeing a future of personal computing with people running open source operating systems on their outdated cyberdecks with scrounged-up hardware from the detritus that datacenters leave behind when the next generation of GPUs and storage becomes available (but only to large corporations)

very cyberpunk

@MLE_online i wonder if someone has exploited this and came up with some way to make infinite cash

@lmorchard whoa

get fucked, eBay

@zxguesser hahahaha

@sunflowerinrain @zxguesser

@tante His piece sounds like a right-wing podcaster who’s doing something he knows is problematic but is blaming his behavior on someone else.

It’s icky.

@clemtre it’s the good stuff

@clemtre I don’t, but hoping for a post on https://stonetools.ghost.io about spell checkers specifically

@danirabbit @tante lol I didn’t see the quoted post until I clicked through but immediately knew who you were talking about
